A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Welcome to Phi Gamma Nu at Cornell University,
My name is Arnav Chinchankar and I am the President of the Delta Omicron Chapter of PGN. Our organization at Cornell was founded in 2007, and we now have over 40 active brothers and an alumni network of 350+ members from diverse backgrounds. We are committed to three core pillars: professionalism, philanthropy, and brotherhood. These pillars are valued dearly by every single member of our organization.
Through our rigorous New Member Education process, our brothers and alumni receive the professional development necessary to secure internships and job opportunities at prestigious companies, such as Goldman Sachs, McKinsey & Company, and Amazon. Many brothers have also pursued further education at institutions like Harvard Business School and the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. With exclusive recruitment events, career panels, and mentorship, our brothers are well-positioned to succeed in the workplace.
We are also incredibly proud to hold philanthropy close to our hearts. We have volunteered for organizations like Ithaca ReUse and the Salvation Army, and every New Member Class also conducts a fundraiser to donate proceeds to a cause of their choice. And outside of PGN, our members lead initiatives across campus to make Cornell and their communities a better place.
Last, but certainly not least, I am extremely grateful for the sense of community I have found within PGN. I transferred to Cornell after my freshman year, and joining PGN has been one of the greatest decisions I have ever made. From horseback riding to movie nights to retreats, I have made so many memories in just a short amount of time.
​
If this is the environment you are looking for, I invite you to learn more about our organization by attending our upcoming events or reaching out to any of our amazing brothers.​​​​​

Best,
Arnav Chinchankar
President
