ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR FOR CHAPTER SERVICES, BETH BIDDLE, CELEBRATES 20 YEARS WITH PI GAMMA MU

Beth Biddle Beth Biddle, Associate Director for Chapter Services, celebrates 20 years with Pi Gamma Mu this month.  Biddle started as a part-time office assistant in 1995 and took on additional responsibilities and hours over the years.  She is now a full-time staffer at the society managing a variety of services for members and chapter sponsors.  She faithfully fulfills all requests for membership credentials and insignia that come into the international office.  She also monitors chapter activity levels and reaches out to chapter sponsors when the office hasn’t heard from them when expected.  This tracking and follow-up helps prevent chapters from becoming inactive and epitomizes the personal touch of Pi Gamma Mu.  In 2013, Biddle served as Interim Executive Director of the society while the position was vacant.  This allowed the society to continue to operate as usual during a time of transition.  Executive Director of the society, Suzanne Rupp, said, “Beth’s dedication to Pi Gamma Mu is exemplary.  Her hard work has helped provide well-deserved recognition to thousands of students over the years and has helped the international office develop a reputation of excellence in service.  She has made significant contributions to Pi Gamma Mu in the areas of chapter retention, member services, conventions, and much more in her 20 years with the society.  It is a true pleasure to work with Beth.” 

In April of 2015, the International Board of Trustees agreed by unanimous vote to recognize Biddle’s dedication by making her an honorary member of the society.  She was officially initiated into lifetime membership on May 2 at the spring initiation ceremony of the Kansas Lambda Chapter at Newman University.  The chapter is sponsored by International Board of Trustees President, Larry Heck.  This month, Heck will visit the international office to honor Biddle and celebrate her achievement. 

Biddle resides on a family farm just outside of Winfield, Kans. with her husband of 31 years, Jess, and the youngest of their four children who will begin his senior year in high school this fall. Beth and Jess also have three grandchildren. Hobbies include horseback riding, ranching, and spending time with her family.  If you wish to congratulate Beth on her 20 years with the society, please send her an email at [email protected]
