The day you became a Beta...something changed forever.  It started with the bond you formed with your brothers in college, making memories and forging friendships for a lifetime.

 "The young man selected for membership in Beta Theta Pi is far more fortunate than he realizes when he first dons the white shield bearing three gold stars.  Only by living the Beta principles year after year will he come to a full appreciation of the privilege that membership in Beta affords.  The fraternity believes in selecting outstanding young men and making good men better."

-Seth R. Brooks, St. Lawrence '22

About the Recruitment Chairman

Turner Goodson

Turner Goodson graduated from Parkway West High School in St. Louis Missouri. He is currently in his second year of the Six year medical program and has a maintained a GPA of 3.8. In the past as a member of Beta Theta Pi, he has served as B.A.D.D chairmen, Auditor, and is currently the Recruitment Chairmen for the chapter. Turner is also a member of Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity and American Medical Society. He also gives much of his time to volunteer at Sojourner’s Clinic, a local free health clinic. In his free time, he enjoys playing basketball among other sports, working out, and spending time with his brothers and close friends. “When I became a member of Beta Theta Pi, I was skeptical whether or not I could balance medical school and Beta Theta Pi. After moving into the fraternity house my sophomore year, it quickly became apparent to me how important it is having the support of my friends living under the same roof as me when it came to my studies. Most of my friends who are in the medical program are in Beta, and subsequently my best friends. We all study together and whenever anyone has a question, there are always at least three of your best friends who have the answer. Along with academic support, Beta provides me the friendship and support I need. I am around people who I enjoy and care about and I know my brothers feel the same. If it was not for Beta, I can not say for certain if I would be in the great position I am in right now.”
