Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity is proud to announce an extensive effort to update our member records. We have partnered with Publishing Concepts (PCI) to collect information from as many members as possible and produce the Tau Epsilon Phi Member Directory—a collection of up-to-date contact information for our extensive network of members.
The directory project is part of an ongoing effort to update, maintain and better utilize our member data so we can continue our mission of better serving our members. Beginning in the spring of 2023, you will receive a postcard and/or email from PCI asking you to call a dedicated phone number to verify or update your contact information. Because member participation is essential for an accurate and successful directory project, please call the number as soon as possible after receiving this communication. The information you provide will be confidential to Tau Epsilon Phi and will not be sold or shared.
After you verify your contact information, you will not be contacted by PCI again for this project. During your phone conversation with a PCI representative, you will have the opportunity to purchase a directory and branded Tau Epsilon Phi merchandise.
If you received a postcard or email from PCI requesting that you update your information and have not done so already, please call at your earliest convenience. You may also call 855-303-9219, Monday – Friday, 7 a.m. – 9 p.m. CT.
