The Renaissance Brother Ritual has been performed for several brothers including Chapter Advisor, Dr. Don Stenta '02, OSU Alumnus Ibi Krukrubo '05, Father of past president Scott Phillips Sr. '03, and now OSU Alumnus Adam Burden. Adam was chosen by the undergraduate chapter to become a brother as an alumnus in early 2008. On February 29th, Adam was initiated into Sigma Phi Epsilon the same way that brothers have been initiated in the past. The ritual role of President was performed by Scott Phillips Jr '05, The role of Chaplain performed by Brad Griffith '04, and the role of Vice President performed by Dr. Don Stenta '02, who was also a Renaissance Brother Initiate.
Adam is a 2005 graduate of The Ohio State University and is currently working for OSU in Student Affairs as Coordinator of Student Involvement. During his undergraduate years, Adam majored in both Math and Political Science. Additionally, he was involved with numerous student activities—ranging from Club Volleyball, to Sphinx Senior Class Honorary, where he served as president, to a University Ambassador. He was also a member of the 2004 Homecoming Court.
In 2007, Adam graduated from OSU with a Masters degree in Higher Education & Student Affairs. Having experienced OSU as both a undergraduate and graduate student, scarlet and gray truly runs in his veins. His passion for OSU also extends to the cultivation of tomorrow’s Buckeye graduates as he serves as an advisor to the Beanie Drake Scholarship Board and Bucket & Dipper Junior Class Honorary. Beyond his love for OSU, Adam, always with a trick up his sleeve, is also an accomplished magician. With his numerous accomplishments and love for Ohio State, Ohio Gamma is delighted to welcome into our brotherhood!
