Phi-Tau Zeta to Celebrate Quarter Century
Brothers,
Chartered in April 1982, Phi-Tau Zeta, the Lambda Chi Alpha chapter at Shippensburg University, Shippensburg, PA, is turning 25. This makes Phi-Tau the oldest continuously operating fraternity chapter on the SU campus. We will celebrate this milestone with several special events over the whole weekend. On Friday night, we will be welcoming new members into our chapter,;) with the alumni (including me!:D) taking an active part. On Saturday, tours of the chapter house will be given during the afternoon. The weekend will culminate with a banquet at the VFW, featuring speakers from our chapter's history as well as a representative of the university administration. A reception will follow at the chapter house. The Alumni Association Annual Meeting will be held on Sunday. The events of the weekend are especially exciting because some of our brothers will be seeing our chapter house, purchased in 2004, for the first time. (Most of us will be seeing it cleaned up for the first time.)

Congrats to the men of Phi-Tau Zeta on behalf of the alumni from Beta-Omicron & Alpha-Iota. I was glad I could assist in promoting the events...

Phi-Tau Update
Friday night we initiated 8 new members, brining our total to 448. Over 20 alumni attended.
Saturday night we held our 25th anniversary banquet. Guests included the President of Shippensburg University, the campus Greek Advisor, over 60 alumni, 22 undergrads, plus 7 of the 8 NIBs, so 29. Dr. Edwin C. Gillman, Phi-Tau #1, was the keynote speaker. We also had two slide presentations featuring pictures of Phi-Tau through the years, and our MC read a letter we received from the former IHQ expansion director, relating what a thrilling experience it was for him, getting our chapter off the ground. One of our alumni from the mid 80s talked about how things were when the chapter was getting started. "The other fraternities hated us. The sororities hated us. If someone from another greek organization saw Lambda Chi letters comming toward them, they'd go the other way." Later an undergrad explained that things have changed on our campus. "The other fraternities still hate us," he said, "but the sororities love us." (Wild applause.) After the dinner, we went to the house for a reception, which consisted of brothers socializing over beers around a fire in the back yard. I dare say the weekend was enjoyed be everyone who attened. |
Hey there Mark... congratulations to Phi-Tau Zeta! It's always great to hear about a chapter establishing itself and becoming so strong.
There was a time when our chapter (Zeta-Epsilon Zeta) said that all of the fraternities and sororities hate us too. Of course, that eventually changed to, "All the sororities come to see us, all other fraternities want to BE us!" Again, congratulations. I hope your 2nd 25 years are even better. In ZAX, |
You should see what He sent me!:D
He had such a great time! I am trying to get OK from Him to send out in our AlumbdaGram with His experience so they too can see what LXA is all about!:D Otter thanks for being there!:) Go, Phi Tau, live long and prosper!:cool: |
