Nu Chapater Sigma Nu Progress
Greetings brothers!
Let me first introduce myself; I am John LeRoy, Senior at KU and Lt. Commander at the Nu Chapter! Every so often I google Sigma Nu KU when I get bored to see what I can find. In the past 2 years all I have come across has been "hazing closes Sigma Nu" or "Charter revoked" etc. It was not until tonight I discovered something a bit different. Distracted with my homework, I decided to see what the latest buzz on the web was. I saw a hot link that actually mentioned our recolonization! I also came across this greekchat forum and was rather surprised to see the amount of interest so many of you have in the progress of the Nu Chapter! I would like to extend a thank you to all of you who are in favor of our efforts and appreciate your support! I would also like to give all of you an update on whats happening! The first semester has just begun here at the University and we could not be off to a better start! We pulled a a total of 33 outstanding pledges ranging from Dallas to Omaha and St. Louis to western Kansas. Each of our pledges have great talents and are very bright young men. Our alumni have been nothing short of fabulous and our Rush Chairmen did an incredible job! We now have a combined total of 56 members. In the early Spring of 08' we mailed our 500+ page petition to Nationals and awaited approval to proceed with our charterization. The petition was reviewd by the High Council during the annual meeting in August and we were approved to receive our Charter! The Charterization ceremony is set to be on October 25th! All of us are ecstatic about the news and I am happy to share it with you all! I was in the pledge class in 2005 when the hazing shut the house down. At the time, I was devastated. I now consider it a blessing in disguise. 8 members of my pledge class returned with the help of outstanding alumni and we rebuilt this Chapter from the ground up. We built it the way a fraternity should be in accordance with the principles of Sigma Nu. We have set a new standard for fraternites on this Greek heavy campus. So far we have been the buzz talk of many frats and sororities on campus and it feels great to be recognized again - this time for our outstanding achievements! I'd be happy to inform any of you on anything else if you have any questions about our progress! Thanks again for your support! Nu is back!
