Phi Kappa Tau wishes to extend its deepest sympathies to the family of Gary DeVercelly who died this morning. We are deeply saddened by Gary’s passing, and our thoughts and prayers are with the family, his friends and the Delta Psi chapter at this time.
The second Rider University student hospitalized on Thursday morning has been released and is recovering.
Domain Director Scott Brown, Tennessee ’88, is working with the university and other Phi Kappa Tau officials in assisting student members.
We would like to thank the Rider University Administration and community for their support during this difficult time.
The campus will host a memorial service on Saturday, March 31. For specific details, please visit the Rider University website at www.rider.edu.
