In just a few short years this fraternity has seen an unbelievable amount of growth. Our graduates have gone on to medical schools, Residencies, and have even become Physicians all over the country and laid the groundwork for a vast alumni network. Brothers of this fraternity have successfully founded an additional half dozen pre-medical organizations at UCSB, and have even gotten in touch with local hospitals and built entire clinical programs from the ground up.
The secret to our success is that we are a hard working and diverse group of gentlemen. Together, our members are fluent in 14 different languages and are involved in dozens of on-campus/off-campus activities, ranging anywhere from undergraduate human stem cell research to playing sitar at UCSB's music ensemble.
