At PC:
Theta Chi has remained on campus at PC as the Beta Psi chapter ever since its installation on December 5, 1942.
This Spring (2017) will mark the beginning of the Beta Psi chapter's 75th year on campus at Presbyterian College. The Beta Psi chapter of Theta Chi at PC has initiated nearly 1,000 men since its founding. Our alumni are involved in the state, local, and national communities as leaders. Check out some of our alumni here. |

Coat of ArmsOriginally a concept suggested by co-founder Frederick Norton Freeman and finalized by his Alpha chapter at Norwich, the Coat of Arms contains elements which exemplify some of the ideals of the fraternity.
Though the Coat of Arms saw some changes, its current design has remained since 1939. Greek Motto (bottom): Θηρόποσα Χείρ - "An Assisting Hand" |
