ChAptER Spotlight: Will Epperson

Editor’s Note: Will Epperson is a sophomore studying computer science from Marietta,
Georgia. On campus, Will is involved in research on a cube satellite project, and works as
a TA in the College of Computing. Initially drawn to Delta Chi by the diverse interests of
the brothers and their drive to push each other to succeed, Will has enjoyed the ways in
which Delta Chi has been able to support and shape his undergraduate experience since
joining. One of Will’s favorite experiences as a Delta Chi was studying computer science
abroad in Barcelona this past summer with several other brothers. Additionally, Will has
been involved with programs through AYUDA Inc. since high school to help teach people
living in the Dominican Republic about how to manage their diabetes. After Georgia Tech,
Will hopes to work in software development aimed at products for the developing world.
