Beta Theta Pi is unique in having an annual Convention that oversees the governance of the Fraternity. Convention is celebrated in various cities throughout North America with up to 1,000 Betas and friends in attendance each year. The convention is vital not only as a governing body but also as perhaps the most important enduring force for the maintenance of the Beta spirit.
