Georgia Southern University – Georgia Gamma
On October 9, 2021, we introduced a new chapter into the Tau Beta Pi active collegiate chapter family. Tau Beta Pi Councillor Michael L. Peterson, IA A ’89, was the official installing deputy, assisted by Executive Director Curtis D. Gomulinski, MI E ’01, and District 5 Director Josuan Hilerio Sanchez, PR A ’07. The initiation team included alumni Samuel B. Dodd, SC A ’22; Kimberly A. Romstad, MI Q ’14; and Salman A. Siddiqui, Ph.D., FL H ’10, and the three previously listed association officials.
Following the formal initiation, the members were constituted a new chapter in the ceremony of installation conducted by Councillor Peterson. The charter members comprise 17 new members, including 16 undergraduate students and 1 eminent engineer.

We are delighted to welcome these new members, as they have just become Tau Bates for life!
