Skyline College-Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society

What BQO alumni say

Richard Chiang, Chapter President, interviews former Chapter officer Brian Yee. Brian recently transferred from Skyline College to the Univer-sity of California Berkeley, Haas School of Business

Richard: Why did you participate in Beta Theta Omicron?
Brian: I really wanted to be involved with an organization that provided a clear message about community and leadership activities. Beta Theta Omicron stood out to me as the best or-ganization that would enable me to advance in my extracur-ricular development. It also helped me a great deal to know the people participating in Beta Theta Omicron were very dedicated.

Richard: Do you think the experience of FQK helped you transferring?
Brian: I had a good idea what my major was beforehand, but FQK did offer me a venue to explore other options. There are plenty of people around offering excellent advice about majors.

Richard: Did membership in FQK make any difference when you applied for jobs?
Brian: I haven’t applied to any jobs just yet, but I am sure that the types of leadership qualities that you acquire from being an officer of BQO are the kind of skills that any employer would value.

Richard: What did you gain through your experience as an officer of Beta Theta Omicron Chapter?
Brian: : It made me feel good to know that we were actually helping people. Whether it was cleaning up national landmarks or helping kids make projects for mother’s day, FQK was there. I understand FQK is now helping feed 600 plus homeless families in San Francisco every other Sunday morning, I find that outstanding and it definitely says a lot about leadership and community service. FQK is unlike any other organization on campus. FQK actually works towards making a difference.

Richard: What has Beta Theta Omicron meant to you?
Brian: It means you care about your community and developing as a person. You learn about responsibility and leadership, two of the more acclaimed skills that top universities are looking for in a student. For anyone interested in furthering your academic career and future, I highly recommend joining FQK as an officer.
