Letter from the Chapter Advisor

Hello everyone,

I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new Chapter Advisor for the New Hampshire Beta Chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon. After a decade of remaining an interested yet noncontributing member, I’ve answered the call to serve at the request of our chapter collegiate.

In October of 2023, I had the pleasure of meeting the active chapter collegiate during our first Homecoming in our newly reclaimed chapter house. Since then, I’ve been attending weekly chapter meetings, where I’ve had the opportunity to observe a remarkable group of young gentlemen.

What struck me most about our members is their unwavering dedication, strong bond, and hardworking nature, which truly exemplify the core values of our fraternity. Despite enduring a challenging term reclaiming the house, they remained steadfast in their commitment to Sigma Alpha Epsilon. We owe a debt of gratitude to their service to our local chapter for staying committed to amending university relationships and rebuilding a better chapter.

Thanks to the collective efforts of our Financial and Housing Corporation, our house has been repaired and reidentified as the home of Sigma Alpha Epsilon New Hampshire Beta. Re-establishing our alumni base, drafting a calendar of events, writing an alumni newsletter, recreating our local website, and reincorporating our alumni association are among our current priorities. Additionally, we have initiated a capital improvement initiative to renovate the outdoor patio, creating a vibrant space for gatherings and community-building activities.

Moreover, I am pleased to share that Province Alpha, after experiencing a 5-year gap without stable leadership, has now installed strong leaders and is gearing up to run its convention soon.

I am incredibly excited about the journey ahead and look forward to working alongside this exceptional group of individuals to uphold the legacy and values of Sigma Alpha Epsilon.

In the bonds,

Matthew C. Arsenault | 291001
NH Beta Chapter Advisor
