The Texas Gamma alumnae of Pi Beta Phi at Texas Tech University and undergraduate leadership have developed a solid plan to address the long-term viability of the Pi Beta Phi experience on the Tech campus. Through careful study, assessment, and planning, it has been determined that updates and maintenance to the lodge are necessary by way of a fundraising campaign, and they must invest in the lodge to meet the needs of today’s students. The Texas Gamma House Corporation has developed a tactical approach to their future.
