Mission Statement

“Pride in Culture, Brotherhood in Arms, and Respect for Life”

BGN’s founders established the fraternity on the principles of pride in culture, brotherhood in arms, and respect for all life. They believe in the potential for every man to have a fulfilling college experience, and they embrace men who share these values.

BGN aims to create leaders who graduate from college and succeed in their careers. We do this by creating a safe, well-being-promoting environment and culture that supports community and follows the rules and goals of colleges and universities

Additional Philanthropic Work

The Zeta Chapter of Beta Gamma Nu promotes well-being of mental, physical, and emotional health as a part of our B-Fit philanthropy. Our annual Fall philanthropic event, Fall Ball, promotes suicide awareness and prevention. Our annual Spring philanthropic event, promotes physical activity and mindfulness. Each event raises money to go towards a person or organization that is affected by or supports our cause.

Community service is important to us and our members. Service to our local neighborhood is a must, because it gives us a sense of belonging and commitment that we are part of the community. We serve the public interest by being responsible fraternity members. We must abide by all local, states and federal laws. As fraternity men we are taught that we must be responsible for our actions and must have higher standards than the average college student.
