Our Story
Established in 2021, Pi Rho Omega was founded with the mission of shaping future leaders. Seeing the need for another business fraternity on campus, founders Connor Devine, Joe Klaw, and Zoe Ray created a new network for ambitious leaders to also reap the benefits of being in a professional business fraternity.
With a focus on personal and professional development, Pi Rho Omega redefines the meaning of a professional business fraternity. A core tenant of our philosophy is not to focus solely on applicants' perceived level of professionalism, but to also consider their work ethic, sociability, and commitment to developing the fraternity.
Since our foundation, Pi Rho Omega has had the pleasure of developing future business leaders into successful leaders in various facets of business, and we look forward to continuing our mission of empowering the next generation of driven professionals for years to come.
Our Pillars
PROFESSIONALISM
This pillar is a core tenant of what our organizations aims to implement within its members. Through our Speaker Series and professional development workshops, our members are equipped with the skills to succeed in whatever area they pursue professionally.
Building a brotherhood of strong, meaningful relationships is extremely important to us. Our goal is to foster an inclusive, dynamic culture that allows members to excel in various social situations as well as create long-lasting relationships while doing so.
BROTHERHOOD
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
Most importantly, our organization seeks to aid its members on their path to becoming their best selves. We understand that our prospective members aren’t highly experience professionals within their field — nor do we expect them to be. Our goal is to take driven, well-rounded individuals and help them garner the experience and skillset necessary to leave UIUC confident in their abilities to succeed in any path they choose.
Our Mission
Turning well rounded individuals into a network of future business leaders.
