A Word From Our President
Welcome to the Zeta Omicron chapter of Phi Chi Theta, a national co-ed professional business fraternity specializing in the field of business and economics at the University of California, Riverside!
Our chapter was founded in 2015, and nearly a decade later we continue to share the same vision as our founders, creating a supportive network built upon our three pillars of philanthropy, professionalism, and brotherhood.
I joined Phi Chi Theta in the winter quarter of my freshman year and am confident that it has been the best decision I have made at UCR. Since my freshman year, I experienced a tremendous amount of growth both professionally and in a personal sense. This has allowed me to contribute back to this organization and the members who are a part of it.
What truly distinguishes PCT-ZO is our members. Each member brings their own unique experiences and perspectives, shaping our fraternity’s culture into an environment that allows new members to feel welcomed and supported as they grow. Every member has their own story to share, contributing to the diversity of our organization. As PCT’s president, I am proud to lead a group that values individuality while promoting fraternity. This combination makes our Riverside chapter a special place, and I am honored to be part of this chapter.
On behalf of our chapter, I encourage you to explore our website to learn more about who we are, what we do, and how you can get involved with our dynamic brotherhood.
Jordan Alcaraz, Zeta Omicron Chapter President ’24 – ’25
