I hope you are all having an enjoyable summer. The Theta Tau chapter is coming off an incredible year filled with personal growth, friendship, loyalty and service.

We also hosted our annual mud volleyball tournament, and raised a record amount of $7000 for the “Walk to End Alzheimer’s” in Kansas City. During the spring semester one of our sisters, Jessica Van Ranken was elected as the student body president of the University…

every college across the United States has at least a few fraternities or sororities that end up in the news in some shape or form. Most of the time, the reason they receive attention is due to someone dying at a house, a girl being raped by a brother, or it’s revealed that a fraternity or sorority has been hazing their pledges. However, is this negative publicity all there is to college Greek Life? While some fraternities and sororities might be innocent of these allegations, there have been a…

The Theta Chi officer team held bi-weekly officer meetings to keep each other up to date on the progress of projects, activities, events, and goals. They also used this time to work on projects, help each other complete tasks, and discuss how to promote PTK throughout the chapter, college, and community. Additionally, a chapter meeting was held every week to keep members informed of the various events and projects going on. During every meeting, members were encouraged to join the project…

In the student handbook there is a section encouraging the students to join. They were thought to promote students to be social with others and to give them a support system. The men and women’s sections were written differently. For the men it seemed like it was assumed that they knew what how fraternities worked but for the women it was written in a way that…

being a fraternity and the things that they partake in. I noticed that they play intramural sports which had got my attention a little bit. I asked him how they keep up with their grades while doing this, because to me grades come first and if I did have any intentions of joining a fraternity I wanted to make sure I could keep up with my grades. This is what he said, “We make sure grades come first and are always helping one another if needed so.” This helped me to understand that fraternities…

As the population of the United States increases, factors such socioeconomic, cultural, and ethnic diversity continue to grow as well. Multiculturalism can be seen in all aspects of life, including university education. With increasing minority populations at colleges across the nation, an education in diversity becomes more important. Promoting an education in diversity in university life and cultural…

However, one way that Alpha Gamma Delta sets themselves apart from the other sororities is the way that they handle recruitment. According to Rachel, "Most of the sororities are materialistic. They judge and recruit girls based on their looks and their wealth" (Fulton). The sororities want to create the idealistic image of American Society. To create this image, rather than being focused on personality, they focus their recruitment…

Growing up, many of us have obtained some knowledge on greek-letter organizations somehow. Whether we have all seen movies about colleges that are fraternity and sorority based or through social media. They’ve given us a little insight on the college life and if you’re like me, these moves have gotten you inspired and excited for college. They’ve shown us the crazy parties, the popularity, the step battles, and the harsh hazing as well. Even though we see an abundance of what goes on in these…
