The Beta Epsilon Chapter has its origin in Psi Beta Fraternity at the Rhode Island College of Pharmacy & Allied Sciences. Beta Epsilon absorbed Psi Beta and was installed at the Crown Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island, on May 17, 1911. The College of Pharmacy was discontinued at the end of the school year in June 1957. That fall, the Charter was transferred to the University of Rhode Island where a new College of Pharmacy was created. In 1961, Kappa Psi presented Beta Epsilon a Citation of Honor when the chapter celebrated its 50th Anniversary. In 1986, Beta Epsilon celebrated its 75th Anniversary with the Diamond Jubilee Celebration at the Biltmore Hotel in Providence. Beta Epsilon has the special distinction of having maintained an active status continuously since it was founded. The chapter neared dormancy in the mid-1980’s when membership slipped to just two Brothers. Through hard work and strong leadership, Beta Epsilon has continued to grow since then to 90 collegiate members at the end of the 2008-2009 school year. Beta Epsilon looks forward to continuously increased membership in years to come. The Chapter also looks forward to its 100th Anniversary in 2011. |
