Beta Theta Pi

A fraternity established in 1839 at Miami University holding an extremly rich history and an extensive alumni base throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Today the fraternity is on the forefront in attempting to redefine Greek Life by bringing the original principles that fraternities were started upon back into college culture. Beta Theta Pi provides a good environment for young men entering college to discover their social, intellectual, and spiritual sides in a well rounded and diverse extended family. Membership is given to a very select group of individuals who exhibit a desire to engage in social interaction in a responsible way while still having a good time. True Betas are regarded as gentlemen and well respected.

The oldest continuous Chapter of Beta Theta Pi is at Washington and Jefferson, the Gamma Chapter.

The first Chapter was established at Miami University by eight young men in 1839. The Alpha Chapter was founded by men who went on to be, among other things, A presidential elector for Abraham Lincoln, Civil War heroes, lawyers and judges, a Governor, and well respected members of society.

Anti-Pi Day

A hands-on educational event for math-anxious students and adults that would offer them some fun non-symbolic things to do on Pi Day—a mathematical equivalent of an anti-Valentine’s Day for singles.

To empathize with tens of thousands of kids who feel left out or alienated on Pi Day, a Singapore NGO is organizing a “Anti-Pi Day” concert to boost their low self-esteem in math.

Pi-Head

A person fascinated with the decimal expansion of pi (3.14...)

It would take a Pi-Head to know how far pi has been expanded by today's super computers

Pi Moment

When the public announcement of the proof of a famous unsolved problem on π turned out to be short-lived, because the result was later found to contain grave errors.

Mathematicians worldwide were excited to hear that the number (π + e) has been proved to be transcendental (i.e., its value can’t be the root of an algebraic equation with rational coefficients), but the news was nothing but a pi moment.

Pi Sigma

Pi Sigma is a diverse sorority of cannabis-proud women also known as the Pink Sesh Society. From sophisticated women who run executive board meetings, to elegant mothers handling family business, these women live unapologetically, celebrate each other, and enjoy cannabis.

I can't wait to become a member of Pi Sigma and meet new friends and sisters.

Pi’s Irrationality

When the number π uses its celebrity status in popular culture to push other mathematical constants or beloved numbers around so that they remain out of sight to the lay public, who might otherwise discover their hidden beautiful numerical or geometric properties.

Some numerical rebels like 0, √2, e, i, and 𝛷 have ganged together to protest against pi’s irrationality—they wanted π to be censored for its bullying behaviors and condescending attitudes vis-à-vis fellow mathematical constants and geometric figures.

What’s Pi Thinking?

When the irrational number π is paranoid or petrified that some radical elements of the mathematical brethren might conspire together to promote other mathematical constants like e and 𝛷 in gracing the pages of reputable math journals on a regular basis.

A few notable constants have discreetly approached some Fields medalists (the equivalent of Nobel Prize winners in mathematics) in their dreams by revealing to them some of their sexy numerical and geometric secrets after hearing leaked news of “what’s pi thinking?”
