We were founded in 1998 and have flourished because of God's grace ever since! Beta Upsilon Chi was formed at The University of Texas at Austin in the spring of 1985 by a handful of Christian men who desired an alternative to the present fraternal lifestyle. A group of Christian men met and planned the "BYX Island Party" to formally announce the fraternity's founding. It was the vision of the founding fathers to have a fraternity of committed Christian men, based on the unique brotherhood that a Christian atmosphere affords, for the purpose of fellowship and glorification of Jesus Christ. Through such events as parties, service projects, and evangelical outreaches, the charter members of Beta Upsilon Chi chose to unite in fellowship and glorify Jesus Christ on the University of Texas campus. After beginning at the University of Texas, the vision of Brothers Under Christ has spread to 38 campuses in Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia, Missouri, Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, Kansas, South Carolina, Kentucky, Connecticut, Michigan and Ohio. Psalms 133:1-"Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity!"
