Psi Chapter's  
150th Anniversary Celebration 
On February 22, 1872, George C. Haldeman founded the Psi Chapter of Chi Phi at Lehigh. Since then, Psi has given us so much to be grateful for; some of our closest friends and fondest memories. Psi has one of the most storied histories of our Fraternity and our Brothers have made a profound impact on the National organization.  Our chapter is one of the oldest continuously existing chapters of the Fraternity and we have a lot to be proud of. As we enter 2022, one of our most prized achievements on the horizon; our 150th Anniversary.

To show our gratitude, we are having one of the most distinguished events in Psi's history: a 150th Anniversary Celebration. This event marks a historic milestone for our Chapter, and to honor this moment, we're holding a weekend of events culminating with a banquet at the Hotel Bethlehem. We'll have guests from National, the former and current Grand Council and Educational Trust, and Lehigh University. In addition to the anniversary of the Psi chapter, we'll be celebrating the 100th Birthday of our chapter house: The Briarfield.

This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with your Brothers, reflect on cherished memories of the past, and look towards the future of Psi. We thank you for all your continued support through the years helping to sustain our sacred chapter for a century and a half. We look forward to having you join us in this special celebration. Family and friends are welcome.

We have a room block for our event at Hotel Bethlehem. Please call them at (855) 264-2598 to make a reservation.
