A MESSAGE FROM OUR SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT
DEAR PROSPECTIVE CANDIDATE,
Thank you for your interest in Baruch Delta Sigma Pi, and on behalf of the Pi Psi chapter, welcome! Recruitment is an opportunity to gain a better understanding of our organization, meet our brothers, and learn about the principles at the core of our fraternity: Brotherhood, Professionalism, and Service. More importantly, it gives you the opportunity to see how DSP can contribute to both your professional development and your college experience.
At a school like Baruch, where many of us balance classes, work, internships, and other responsibilities, it can be easy for college to become a routine of simply coming to campus and going home. DSP gave me something beyond that routine. I found myself surrounded by driven, ambitious people who pushed me to step outside of my comfort zone, pursue new opportunities, and hold myself to a higher standard.
Through professional workshops, networking opportunities, alumni connections, leadership positions, and mentorship from fellow brothers, DSP provides experiences that prepare our members for life beyond the classroom. Whether you are still discovering what you want to pursue or already have a career path in mind, being surrounded by people who are equally invested in their futures can challenge you to grow into a more confident, capable, and well-rounded version of yourself.
While I initially joined DSP for the professional opportunities it could offer me, I stayed because of the people I found here. This fraternity has become one of the most meaningful parts of my college experience, and the friendships, memories, and support I’ve found within this brotherhood are things I know I’ll carry with me long after Baruch.
As you attend our recruitment events, I encourage you to speak with as many brothers as possible, ask questions, and most importantly, be yourself. Whether you are looking to grow professionally, expand your network, find mentorship, or become part of a community that wants to see you succeed, I hope you take something meaningful away from this experience.
Joining Delta Sigma Pi has been one of the best decisions I’ve made at Baruch, and I hope throughout recruitment, you’re able to see a little of what made me love this organization as much as I do.
We look forward to meeting you!
Sincerely,
Elisa Luo
SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT | PI PSI CHAPTER
