The Alpha Gamma Chapter at the Pennsylvania State University was the first of its kind on campus. Founded on April 23, 1923, our chapter operates on four pillars: professionalism, community service, fundraising, and brotherhood. Since 1923, the chapter has had over 2,400 initiates. Currently, the Alpha Gamma Chapter has over 100 active brothers majoring in various Smeal and non-Smeal studies.
