Alumni Donations
Giving back to Pi Sigma Epsilon to enable current collegian members to fully maximize their experiences is incredibly important during these tough economic times. The Pi Sigma Epsilon National Educational Foundation encourages you to give what you’re able to help its activities—whether it’s a donation to your old chapter to help send members to the PSE National Convention or to the scholarship program to help the Foundation reach its goals to endow several memorial scholarships to allow them to available to members for many years to come.
Brent Fogleman, the Secretary of the PSE National Educational Foundation says, “Donate what you’re able. Whether it’s time given to mentor a chapter member or money given to the Foundation to make our scholarship program successful. Even giving $5. That $5 is something we didn’t have before. Especially during an economic downturn, there are so many people who want and need a college education, every cent we are able to collect will go into making a success of our scholarship program and offer opportunities that weren’t there before. So please give.”
Your donation is tax deductible.

FUNDS BUILDING TOWARD ENDOWMENT
Marv
Loos Scholarship Fund
Initiated by the Iota PSE chapter at Arizona State University,
this scholarship honors Marvin D. Loos. Marv is a charter
member of the Iota chapter (April 22, 1958) and was its two-term
President. In those two years, Iota received the Lewis F.
Gordon Top Chapter Award. He served on the PSE National Council
as Secretary, Treasurer, Administrative VP, and the first
Alumni Vice President. He was elected to serve as the PSE
National President from 1992-1993 and continues today as the
Alumni Advisor to the Iota chapter.
With over 50 years of continuous commitment to Pi Sigma Epsilon
as involved alumnus and national leader, Marv is PSE’s
official historian. A close personal friend of founders Lew
Gordon and Dr. William H. Harris, Marv brings to the fraternity
an understanding of PSE that few have had the opportunity
to acquire first-hand from the individuals who made our fraternity
a reality. Additionally, Marv has attended 48 of the 52 PSE
National Conventions. Marv is a PSE life member and its 17th
Honorary Life Member, the highest award bestowed by the PSE
National Council.
Pi Sigma Epsilon is truly appreciative of Marv’s generosity
and dedication to the principles, purposes and mission of
PSE for over 50 years.
Past PSE National Presidents Scholarship Fund
Initiated by Dr. William R. Thomas, PSE National President
1978-1979. Bill Thomas has been a member of Pi Sigma Epsilon
since joining the Alpha Gamma chapter in 1964 at the Georgia
Institute of Technology. He was active as a collegian, then
an alumnus, and later as Faculty Advisor to the Alpha Rho
chapter at the University of South Carolina. During Bill’s
leadership years with PSE, his involvement resulted in expanded
programs, ongoing development and a movement to allow women
to become Fraternity members. He served in various capacities
on the National Council before becoming PSE National President.
One of Bill’s proudest achievements as PSE National
President was the substantial increase in financial support
provided by alumni members. Once again, Bill is reaching out
to Past PSE National Presidents to give back to their fraternity
in a way that will go on and award students scholarships for
years to come.
