Dave Shook, Alpha Psi 268 announces his retirement as Alpha Psi Chapter Advisor (CA).
“After five years, seven Archons, over 200 initiates spanning five initiations, two years of COVID restrictions, four housing directors, and three years in a dual role as Chapter Advisor and Board President, I am stepping down.”
Dave has relished the role, but as he turns 70, the five hour round trip and the other commitments to Pi Kappa Phi Foundation make it time to bring on a new Chapter Advisor. The change can be immediate, but May 2023 will be the absolute end of his term. Dave can continue to advise the new person if requested and will remain on the Alpha Psi housing corporation board. If you are interested in learning more about the about the Chapter Advisor role, please contact Zach Beals at zbeals@pikapp.org.
The Advisor Award of Distinction, awarded for the first time in 2017, recognizes exceptional commitment to advising a fraternity chapter, Interfraternity Council or fraternity/sorority community. Each recipient
demonstrates dedication to guiding and mentoring the fraternity members with whom they work and exemplifies the highest standards of character, leadership and interfraternalism, both personally and professionally. For his role in leading our chapter, David Shook was recognized with the Advisor Award of Distinction.
Dave has led the way for the Alpha Psi Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi to be fraternal leaders in their community. Dave sets himself apart through his unwavering dedication to the student experience. He spent countless hours not only working with the leadership of the Alpha Psi Chapter but also with the general membership, the parents and the university.
Advising one of Pi Kappa Phi’s largest chapters in the country is no small task, but Dave does so in a way that positively impacts anyone who has had an interaction with Pi Kappa Phi at Indiana University. Additionally, he has volunteered for Pi Kappa Phi, serving on the alumni board, housing board and with the Foundation. Congratulations, David. Thank you, brother!
