This summer, House Managers Nick Fanelli and Guillermo Contreras led the charge on rejuvenating the interior of the house. The main idea was to do many small projects that make a big difference. Such projects included reorganizing and leveling all our composites and awards; rearranging the common areas and doing intense cleaning. I encourage everyone to come by and see the house; it has gained a new luster from these efforts.
This fall we have 40 active brothers. Our chapter is quite young at the moment, considering we initiated 18 freshmen last spring: the Alpha Phi pledge class. Our fall recruitment this semester had a great turn out, and we pinned 7 outstanding pledges. The Alpha Chi pledge class is comprised of 6 sophomores and 1 junior, and every individual exemplifies all the qualities of the Jordan Standard. The Alpha Chi class is being guided by Magister Brian Niccum, who is in his third active semester.
Our Derby Days philanthropy program this year has just concluded, and it was a remarkable success. Even before the week was through, we had raised more money than in any year prior. All money raised will go to the Be Perfect Foundation. If you'd still like to donate, just click on the Donate button at the top left of the page.
As a whole, the Iota Pi chapter is working to instill good habits and relations to ensure a thriving future. Pro-Consul Robert Yovino has E-Board running efficiently and expansively. Queastor Taylor Wike has revitalized our financial records and made our dollar as efficient as possible. Ryan Wittman, Tribune, is working to improve our systems of communication with alumni. Our whole chapter is taking the steps to become one of the elite chapters on campus and generally within Sigma Chi.
I encourage all alumni to stop by the house or come to our chapter meetings. Chapter is every Sunday at 6pm. If you are interested in coming or have any other questions, please e-mail me.
