Alpha Rho of Chi Psi Fraternity at Rutgers University is one of 29 Alphas (or chapters) of the first Social Fraternity, founded on May 20th 1841.

Our history, and devotion to brotherhood, defines our experience as Chi Psi's. Alpha Rho of Chi Psi has been pledging gentlemen and scholars since 1879 and we consider recruitment to be one of the most important of all our activities. The continuation of the chapter’s ideals relies upon the next set of young men who will be brothers of Alpha Rho. The relatively smaller size of our Alphas lends itself to an extremely close Brotherhood and life-long friendships. The Brothers of Chi Psi take pride in, and support, the diversity of our members: their backgrounds, beliefs, extracurricular involvement and their fields of academic study. Our Brotherhood is selective and thus excels in academics, leadership, philanthropy and social life. Our recruitment process holds very high standards and is looking for only the best Rutgers University undergraduate men. A Chi Psi gentleman is distinguished in virtually all aspects of life. He is a man of great integrity, honesty and loyalty. Active Men and leaders on Campus interested in joining our bonds of brotherhood must have at least a 2.75 GPA in order to receive a bid. Once a member you are expected to maintain a high academic achievement, participate in the Greek community both within and outside of Chi Psi as we work as a Fraternity to make your interests our interests.

National Hazing Policy:
Chi Psi prohibits hazing in any form. Hazing is contradictory to the three fundamental purposes of the program for pledge education and the values which Chi Psi was founded on. As a future member of our organization you are required to uphold this prohibition. The process by which you learn about Chi Psi and become a brother should be dignified, formative, and productive. Activity that counters that is completely inappropriate.

Alpha Rho Senior Spotlight: Filipe Feiteiro

Meet our last and final senior, , a Biological Sciences major and member of the Spring ’23 pledge class who made a lasting impact on Alpha Rho as our Philanthropy Chair.

Some of Fil’s favorite memories came from traveling through Europe with the boys, along with the simpler moments around the Lodge - like YouTube watch parties featuring Outdoor Boys and endless food videos.

For Filipe, Chi Psi helped shape him into the person he is today. “This fraternity has formed me into a gentleman and has given me friends and memories that will last a lifetime. It taught me a work hard, play hard mentality that I’ll carry with me forever.”

Outside of the Lodge, Filipe stayed active through Keller sports and intramural soccer while also working as a Patient Care Technician at Saint Peter’s Hospital. One of the accomplishments he’s most proud of was his work as Philanthropy Chair, where he personally raised $2,773 while helping Alpha Rho raise over $44,000 as a chapter. He also takes pride in serving the community through volunteer and service events throughout college.

After graduation, Filipe will be attending the Rutgers Physician Assistant Program, continuing his path toward a career in healthcare. Looking ahead, he’s most excited to spend time with friends and family, travel, watch the World Cup, and continue growing into the best provider he can be. When he’s not studying or working, you can find Filipe running, playing soccer, snowboarding, playing pickleball, relaxing at the beach, or hanging out with friends and family.

Fun fact: Filipe is part Portuguese and Korean.

Alpha Rho Senior Spotlight: Emmett Ryan

Meet , a Finance major with a minor in Economics and a proud member of the Spring ’23 pledge class. During his time at Alpha Rho, Emmett served as both Treasurer and Fantasy Football Chair, two positions that definitely required equal levels of dedication.

Some of his favorite memories came from traveling with the boys, especially spring break trips to Cancun and Europe - experiences and stories that will probably live on forever around the Lodge.

Outside of Chi Psi, Emmett worked as a swim instructor at CAG, was involved in Road to Wall Street, and competed in intramural soccer. When asked about his proudest accomplishments, he mentioned either destroying Dollir in Fortnite box fights or winning the 3v3 basketball tournament alongside Ishan, Cassese, and JD.

For Emmett, Chi Psi has been about making lifelong memories with the people around him and always having the boys nearby for whatever comes next.

After graduation, he plans to spend the summer traveling before beginning work in the city in the fall. He also intends on pursuing an MBA from Rutgers shortly after.

What’s he most excited for post-grad? Having a little more money in his pocket. When he’s not working or traveling, you can find Emmett getting food with the boys, watching the Knicks “win it all,” or asking Claude the most random questions imaginable.

Fun fact: Emmett is going to watch Brazil play at the Linc during a World Cup group stage game this June.

On campus, Brendan is a member of Lambda Pi Eta and will graduate with a 3.9 GPA as Summa Cum Laude. He has worked at Colgate-Palmolive, Rutgers Athletics as an Executive Marketing Intern, and as a Scarlet Ambassador.

After graduation, Brendan will continue working at Colgate-Palmolive in NYC in a recruitment marketing role. He’s most excited to take time to travel, spend time with friends, and to enjoy the little things. This summer, Brendan will also be traveling to Ireland with his twin brother Emmett. 🇮🇪

Alpha Rho Senior Spotlight: Aidan O’Brien

Meet , a Communication/PR major with a minor in Psychology, who has been a cornerstone of Alpha Rho since joining Chi Psi. Serving as both President and Recruitment Chair, Aidan played a major role in shaping the chapter’s success and brotherhood.

His favorite memories span some of the best Chi Psi moments - C-Formals, National Conventions in Minnesota and Colorado, Keller basketball runs, and, of course, cracking jokes with everyone around the Lodge.

Among his proudest accomplishments is helping lead Alpha Rho to win the Thayer Trophy at the National Convention in Boulder, Colorado, becoming just the fourth President in chapter history to do so. He also helped the chapter earn recognition from Rutgers as a 4-star chapter in 2025.

After graduation, Aidan will be returning to Novo Nordisk as a Rare Disease Marketing Intern, where he’ll be supporting the launch of a hemophilia drug. Looking ahead, he’s most excited to keep the good times going, whether that’s at the Shore bars or watching all of his brothers succeed in their own paths.

When he’s not working, you can find him on coffee runs, in the gym, eating ice cream on the boardwalk, stressing over Knicks playoff games, or listening to a little too much Noah Kahan.

Fun fact: Aidan has picked up more nicknames than most - OBeezy, OBizzle, OBeast, and a few others that probably can’t be posted.
