Achieving S uccess Together

~~A ~chieving Success Together ... A Sisterhood

of Choice" was the theme of the Twenty-sixth National Convention held at the Henry VIII Hotel in St. Louis, Mis­souri , June 24-28, 1986.

Collegians and alumnae exchanged numerous ideas and helpful hints during the five-day conclave. From the impressive opening ceremonies, through the business ses­sions, workshops, and banquets, to the closing session , we were reminded of the bonds of sisterhood we share in Alpha Sigma Tau.

The Convention festivities began on Tuesday afternoon, June 24, when the National Staff honored Cynthia Peckhart McCrory (Alpha Alpha), NPC Delegate , at a sur­prise luncheon (and Cynthia was surprised!) for her service as NPC Chairman from 1983-1985. Cynthia was the first Alpha Sigma Tau to serve in this capacity. Lenore "Sybil" Seibel King (Psi) was the toastmistress for this luncheon and presented Cynthia with a scrapbook filled with notes and momentos from her sisters in Alpha Sigma Tau and the National Panhellenic Conference .

The formal opening Tuesday evening included the pre­sentation of chapter plaques, roll call, the president's key-

note address , and the traditional candlelighting ceremony. Following the opening session , sisters attended the Memo­rial Service for all members deceased since the 1984 Con­vention. Mary Charles Adams Ashby (Chi), National Chaplain , conducted the service and read a special tribute to Mary Alice Sellers Peterson (Iota) , National President 1955-1964, who died last year .

At the General Session Wednesday morning, Alpha Sigma Tau was officially welcomed to St. Louis by Teresa Turcotte of the St. Louis Ambassadors . We heard reports from Meda Ray Elliott Sewell (Omicron) , President of Alpha Sigma National Foundation , Inc .; Susan Rogers (Alpha Lambda) , National Treasurer ; Jane Coleman , National Headquarters Office Consultant; and Martee Buchanan (Alpha Lambda) , National Nominations Chair­man . Gail Shockley Fowler (Alpha Lambda) , National President, announced her resignation, to be effective at the close of the Convention . Patricia Nayle (Phi) , Director of Expansion , was appointed by the National Council to com­plete Mrs. Fowler's term .

At the National Staff meeting, Terry Winston Dudley (Beta Zeta) , Director of Alumnae, announced that there would be a contest from June 1986-June 1, 1987 to see

THE ANCHOR

who could sign up the most dues-paying alumnae. The contest is open to individual collegiates, individual alum­nae , collegiate chapters, and alumnae chapters. The prizes will be payment of the winners' registration fees for the 1988 Convention .

One of the highlights of Convention was the selection of the Queen . Making this choice were the judges, the 1982 Convention Queen , Annette Sanchez (Beta Theta); and Ron and Steve Pollack, of Alpha Sigma Tau's official jew­eler, J . 0 . Pollack. While the judges were deciding which of the collegiate candidates would be the Queen and her princesses, Vicky Boyd Wensel (Alpha Lambda) , National Awards Chairman , presented the Margaret M. Macdonald Belle Awards to 31 women who have attended three or more national conventions.

Kimberly Curtis , Beta Chi chapter, was selected as Queen for the 1986 Convention. Kimberly is a senior busi­ness education major at Ferris State College in Big Rapids , Michigan . She has served as her chapter's recording secre­tary , fundraiser, and vice-president.

Princesses were Kimberly Manika, Beta Pi , Eastern Illi­nois University; and Aimee Herder, Alpha Tau , Edinboro University of Pennsylvania .

Opening Address by Cail Fowler

Scholastics has always been a goal for these groups because all fraterni­ties and sororities have some sort of rules which universally state that a satisfactory academ ic average must be attained before initiation . Today at­tention to scholarship has become even more para­mount with students work­ing, obtaining scholarships, and with sororities vying with other clubs for a re­spectable position in the academic community. Ad­ditionally , leadership train­ing and responsibility are further outcomes of life in a sorority . Time has not real­ly altered the fraternity/ sorority world. We are still people working together to achieve a common goal. As Al:T's we can Achieve Success Together in sever­al ways. On the collegiate level we can actively rush and seek to fill quota with young women who will add dimension to our own individual chapters. We are a sisterhood of choice and we must seek women who are committed to our pur­poses and ideals. The values of friendship , the fi­delity to purpose , the progress of mankind, and

the fuHillment of self are but a few of our spoken creed . Achieving Success on the coUegiate level is fun because you work, live and play as a team. As col­legiate sisters we strive to achieve scholastic success for that is our main pur­pose of coUege life .

When we become alumnae, our focus chang­es. We are now with sisters from all over the nation and aU walks of life. We achieve success together by our continued involve­ment with Alpha Sigma Tau. The benefits of con­tinuing association with Alpha Sigma Tau are many. For one, I deeply feel that I became involved because I wanted to see the sorority continue. In 1976, when Martee phoned me about a District President's job, I reflected many thoughts. Someone did this job when I was in college. I remembered how she puUed our chap­ter together. In a sense you could caU it a payback. We aU owe Alpha Sigma Tau and our past National offi­cers a debt of thanks. It is only due to the fact that many have so graciously given of their time that we have reaped the benefits of their efforts.

Yes, Achieving Success Together must be a real reality for Alpha Sigma Tau. Together we are very strong. No one is so self­sufficient that she doesn't need the love and support of a sister . . . I know that we can achieve suc­cess together as a whole. The opportunities are there . Make or continue to make the effort and reap the regards of our sis­terhood.~

Wednesday evening we enjoyed a tour of St. Louis planned by Jeanne Egan Brunworth (Beta Eta) , Edwardsville Alumnae. The first stop was the St. Louis Arch . We boarded barrel-shaped capsules and rode to the top of the Arch , where we enjoyed the spectacular 30-mile view of the city . Back on the ground , we toured Union Station , which is a renovated train station housing many shops and restaurants . We shopped, ate , and did some more sight-seeing until it was time to return to the hotel.

The Alumnae Luncheon was held on Thursday . Terry Dudley introduced the guest speaker, Lois Schweikart O'Dell (Lambda), Philadelphia Alumnae president and former Director of Alumnae . Mrs. O'Dell's speech was about building memberships in alumnae chapters and she related several personal anecdotes about her own experiences in Alpha Sigma Tau .

At the General Session Thursday afternoon , we saw the slide show on Pine Mountain Settlement School , pre­sented by Mr. James Urquhart , Director of the school. Judy Anderson Hart (Zeta Tau) , Director of Publications, gave her communications workshop titled , "I Heard it Through the Grapevine". Cynthia Peck hart McCrory (Alpha Alpha) , NPC Delegate , gave a talk on the National Panhellenic Conference , and Patricia Nayle (Phi) and Expansion Assistant, Shelley Wascom (Phi) , pre­sented Alpha Sigma Tau's expansion slide show. Before the close of the session , the names of all collegiate Top Taus were announced by the chapter delegates.

Thursday evening , we were treated to the results of the pledge and rush workshops held during the week . The six hilarious skits on rush programs , etiquette , and pledge programs, were directed by Julie Bell (Iota) , National Rush Director ; Janet Hanson Dodson (Iota) , Kappa District President; and Debby Dwiggins Alexan­der (Alpha Lambda) , National Pledge Director .

The Awards Banquet was held Friday evening . Toni Elbert Fowler (Alpha Sigma) , Kirksville Alumnae , was the toastmistress.

" . .. I not only realized the fullness of sisterhood but also learned, experienced, and grew as a sister. This past convention was my first and last as a collegiate. I am sad that I will not be able to experience another one in quite the same way but thankful that I did get the opportunity. Hopefully I will be able to attend con­ventions as an alumnae . After all , AET IS FOR LIFE!!!"

-Kirsten Barron Psi Chapter Delegate . the convention

gave us new insights on how to make the sorority grow , and it provided me with many memories that my chapter and the Beta Eta Chapter will NEVER forget! (Right girls??!!!) "

-Lynn Kuhnert Beta Psi President

"What I learned from Convention was true sister­hood . If I would not have gone to Convention , I would never have met the girls from other chapters, the National Council and Staff. It's such a special bond! Everyone has so much in common and conversations started with­out any hesitations. I loved the moments that I shared with my sisters from other chapters.

The experiences that I received from this Con­vention are not replace­able with anything I'll ever do or have done . It was a very special trip that will not be forgotten soon!"

convention

Today has been a winning day f or all of us ... it has been filled with new learning experiences-meet ing new sisters ... or reacquainti ng friendships that have been apart f or several months, or f or several yea rs ... gaining some new information t hrough the four great workshops.

Let's stop a moment and see a show of hands of how many of us have really good int entions of return ing to your chapter and incorporating the new/different ideas you have received here int o your loca l chapter?

Now let's be honest . . . how many of you will take t hese ideas and put them to work immediately in your chapter?

If you are anyt hing like me, you will have the good intentions of putting these ideas t o work. I can 't tell you how many times I have had good intentions . . . after returning f rom a workshop wit h my work . .. to immediately incorporate some of t he great ideas into my job responsibilities . . . or even into my sorority work . . . and I didn't do it.

Let's make t his t ime different ... let's do it. Kenneth Blanchard, author of a well­known management book, THE ONE MINUTE MANAGER, has said "TRY NOT, DO OR DO NOT, BUT NEVER SAY TRY. " Let's not just try ... Let's do it, and incorporate what we have learned from each other today into our sorority life to make ourselves winners.

I am a Winner ... You all are winners ... GO FOR IT. Yes, that's what I said . . . GO FOR IT.

"Many of us have been misled by myths t hat suggest t hat only the rich can win, only the athletic can become superst ars or only the beautiful can get what they want. This is simply not true.

Are winners a special breed? You bet!! But t hei r breed is distinguished by action , not by birthright. They are the producers, the forward movers of society who know that it is work that turns the key to success. THEY WANT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN AND THEY KEEP TRYING" . . . let me amend that statement .. . THEY WANT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN AND THEY DO IT.

"Winners may not be the brightest people in t he crowd, but they are eager and tena­cious. To win . . . it is not necessary to have a high I.Q.; natural endowment is not what counts. Nor is it true that a person who has great talent wil l become a winner, because inherent ability doesn't guarantee success."

I am proud to say that all sisters of AET can be winners .. . we must strive to do our best, we must tackle the obstacles ahead, and never quit . . . don't put that word in your vocabulary.

If we experience a weak moment . . . and all of us do ... when we become over­whelmed by a project or frustrated by a problem . . . go to a sister and tell her how you feel. It will work wonders because you will have anot her "winner" working to help you through the tough times. I can tell you that it has worked for me, when 1 have been troubled or frustrated . . . I have called another sister . . . she has given me the confi­dence I knew I had . . . and I knew that I could handle t he situations.

I am a winner .. . and you are a winner ... and let me leave you with this thought ... "There is a time to part and a time to meet, There is a time to sleep and a t ime to eat, There's a time to work and a time to play, There's a time to sing and a time to pray, There's a time that's glad and a t ime that's blue, There's a time to plan and a time to do, There's a time to grin and a time to show your grit , But there is never a time to quit. "

GO FOR IT . .. whatever it is you set out to accompl ish.

Alpha Sigma Tau recently installed a second collegiate chapter in the state of New Jersey . The setting was Mon­mouth College in West Long Branch , New Jersey , which is within an easy walk of the boardwalk and beaches bordering the Atlantic Ocean. Alpha Sigma Tau became the fourth NPC group to be established on this campus.

The installation activities held on Saturday , April 19, 1986 completed a colonization which initially began when Alpha Sigma Tau was asked to make an expan ­sion presentation to an interest group at Monmouth Col­lege . Mrs . Kathy Roche , an alumna from New Jersey , graciously made the presentation on October 4 , 1984. Within two weeks , the interest group had chosen to affili­ate with Alpha Sigma Tau . By the time the Christmas holidays arrived , the local interest group had been accepted as Beta Omega Colony of Al:T , and was ready to begin working to become a chapter.

Shortly after the new year began , plans were under­way to formally conduct the pledging ceremony and training during the weekend of February 1-3 , 1985. Mrs. Gail Fowler , National President , along with the assistance of Mrs . Kathy Roche , pledged and trained the newest pledge sisters through various group and individ­ual sessions . After the initial training was completed , the women of Beta Omega colony were ready to fulfill the various program requirements under the direction of Mrs . Ann Gruber , National Colony Adviser . Throughout the colonization period , Mrs . Gruber corresponded with the women by letter and telephone ; she also visited with the colony women on several occasions to lend support and direction to the women regarding sorority opera­tions . She also assessed what progress was being made in respect to the program requirements .

Over the time of colonization , the women of Beta Omega rushed more women to join their sisterhood , handled several fund raising activities-such as deliver­ing candycane reindeers during the Christmas season-

participated in a "Project Hunger" for social service , and trained their new pledges .

In February , 1986, it was the decision of the National President and the Director of Expansion that Beta Omega be installed as a chapter. So came the big event , when twenty-one women became members of Beta Omega chapter on April 19, 1986.

Beta

Central Michigan University At the end of spring semester, the sis­

ters of the Beta chapter were proud to initiate seven new members . The total chapter membership is now 63. Besides initiating our own new members Beta also helped the sisters of the Beta Chi chapter with their rush program .

Last semester the Sigma Chis were our brother fraternity . The sisters of Al­pha Sigma Tau participated with the Sig­ma Chis in their annual philanthropic project on February 13 and 14. We helped them with their two day Red Cross Blood Drive .

Other service projects include donat­ing non-perishable items to the victims of the Forum Apartments fire and partici­pating in the MTV Millions against Multi­ple Sclerosis Rock-a-Like contest. This event included competition 13 midwest schools. Our group won from CMU by raising the most money.

As a community service , the AET's work with the police , local car dealers and other fraternities and sororities in a pro­gram to drive drunk drivers home. This involves placing phone numbers at local bars and restaurants where each fraternity and sorority on call can be reached . If a person feels that they are incapable of driving home they can call the listed num­ber and a person from a fraternity and so­rority will drive them home .

During the spring semester , the sisters of Beta were proud to receive the presti­gious award of being the most involved chapter in the campus Panhellenic Asso­ciation . Combined with the efforts of the president (Amy LaFrance) , senior pan­he! delegate (Donna Pollard) , and junior pan he I delegate (Christine Campbell) , each member actively contributed their time to earn the award . We were in ­volved in such activities as fund raisers , greek functions and Panhel Executive Board service . We had an 100% effi­ciency record .

During Greek Week this year, our chapter captured many honors . In Greek Sing, with the theme of "Movies ," the AET's took first place by singing songs from "Beverly Hills Cop ." This was very important to our chapter , because we had put in long and hard hours of prac­tice and also because we have placed in Sing for the past couple of years , but we had never won! During the middle of the week our chapter placed in such events as track , swimming and tug-of-war.

This year has been very successful for our chapter and we look forward to an

Delta

Indiana University of Pennsylvania Some say love - it is a family that helps you

when you're down Some say love- it is a companion that helps

without a sound Some say love-it is a feeling a smile turned

from a frown We say love-it's you the sisters that we're so

glad we found - lyrics to Spring '84 Pledge Class Song

We welcomed nine new members into the Delta family this Spring after holding three rush parties . The "New York , New York, " "Neon Night," and "A Night With the Taus" parties brought us pledges Amy Jo Baldoni, Lori Eddy, Wendy Ed­wards , Terri Fornear , Kim King , Debbie Lauth , Jean Moffo, Susan Paul and Sez Sharkey .

The semester started out with many social plans; Greek Week , Derby Daze , a date party, a formal and hosting a Re­gional Leadership Workshop .

The date party was he ld at the Eagles Club on February 15. Our sweetheart, Tim Vojtasko , escorted Vice-President Teresa Pendrick. Tim is a brother of Phi Sigma Kappa at IUP.

Hard work followed in our dancing footsteps as committee heads and co­chairs Ke lley Lewis and Rebecca Mc­Ciincy geared up for the R.L.W .

Our guests included delegations from Clarion University , Edinboro University, Dusquesne University , California State University , Slippery Rock University, State College at Buffalo , Central Michi­gan and a surprise visit from our sisters at Shepherd College . We were also hon­ored to host National Council members Gail Fowler , Susan Rogers, Mary Sini­baldi and Judy Hart .

The weather was typically IUP-over­cast , but the schedule we prepared kept our new friends running through the raindrops . Games, workshops, skit com­petitions , cheering and meetings with National staff were all part of the weekend .

The highlight of the workshop for us was a formal banquet held in the Blue Room of Sutton Hall . Speeches by Indi­ana's IFC president Mike Bova and Interim Vice-President for Student and University Affairs Dr . Charles Fuget rounded out the dinner , a slide show and song were presented by Delta members .

The R. L. W. workshop brought us even closer together and this bond was celebrated at our formal in Greensburg , April 13. Plgnned by the pledges and pledge mom Tammy Bleicher , "A Night to Treasure" brought the announcement of Terry Fornear as "Best Pledge" and " Most In spirati onal Pledge Sister". Danielle Mizikar was picked as "Most In­spirational Sister" by the pledges .

The semester wound down with back to back Derby Daze and Greek Week competitions . AET won second place in Derby Daze tug-of-war.

Betas practice their technique outside their house that won them first place in Central Michigan's Greek Sing.

Greek Week opened with our per­formance of "New York , New York," "Nasty Girls ," and "On Broadway" with Phi Kappa Psi fraternity . Sigma Nu was our partner in pyramid building, Theta Xi in frisbee football and Kappa Sigma in chariot races . The Taus enjoyed all the events , winning a third place in volleyball and a third in Jello Jump .

The annual senior banquet gave the graduating seniors' families a special look at what friendship their daughters found in AET . The seniors' little sisters read them poems and gave them yellow roses.

Our love goes out to the 12 graduates, along with a vote of thanks for teaching us how to promote a strong sisterhood; JoAnne Dombroski , Wendy Freeman , Kim Massie , Susie Mcilwain , Danielle Mizikar , Sheila Mowry , Karen O'Dell , Connie Rexford , Susan Roper , Traci Salsy , Carrie Vish and Kelly Wolfe .

The Top Tau award was presented to Rebecca McClincy at the senior celebra­tion . Fro m her term o n Panhellenic Council secretary to R.L.W . chair, Reb showed our chapter how to share one's talents and energies for causes that really count.

Strengthening our social service is something that counts for all the sisters . Karen Bowser, chairperson for sorority growth and development , is organizing activities for next fall. This semester we helped in the campus Special Olympics and were involved in a picnic for retard­ed citizens . We are planning to start an annual event that includes !UP Greeks next semester.

We look forward to another successful rush and plan an ali-day picnic to brain­storm rush ideas for parties when we re­turn in the fall.

Zeta

Lock Haven Univers ity This spring semester has been full of

fun and busy as well. The sisters of the Zeta Chapter have been searching for a ho use we can call ours for years . Cur­rently , we are looking into one that will allow us to rent from the owner for a pe­riod of time . We are excited and hopeful abo ut this endeavor.

April was a month in which many of our events took place . Mid-month the Zeta's held the annual Yellow Rose For­mal. Sisters , alumni and dates traveled to Williamsport's Sheraton where they enjoyed an evening of dining and danc­ing . Amy Dupree , our District President , came to visit. She suggested several ideas for fund raisers , sorority unity , rush activities and greek relations .

During the month of May there are many events scheduled . The sisters competed in a game titled "Hunt". In this event sisters and pledges of all soror­ities on campus shoot the others with water , having the remaining person re­ceive a prize .

The Zeta's have been selected to hold the office of vice-president of the Pan hel­lenic Board. The sisters chose Pam Klinefleter to run for the office .

Zeta's were also involved in Greek Olympics. All greek organizations com­peted against each other in events rang­ing from an egg toss to bed races .

As a social service , the Zetas showed a hazing film to other greek organizations and to local groups as well.

We have had 50/ 50 raffles and alumi­num can drives in which we plan to use the profits for our scholarship , housing, formals , conventions and Regional Leadership Workshops . There are plans for a 50/ 50 drawing over the summer and a Labor Day fund raiser . We have a new idea for incoming freshmen to re­mind them of things that they might for­get to pack such as a popcorn popper!

The spring semester began with the rush theme "Tau Search" from the tele­vision game show Star Search , Lynne Partridge was our rush chairman . The sisters dressed in their green and gold letters and competed in a "Tau Pursuit" game using sorority and rush informa­tion . We picked up ten pledges through rush and four open bids . These 14 en­thusiastic girls include : Dee Adamczyk , Jackie Chappell , Sue Cowan , Paula France , Shelley Garber , Sheri Gordon , Judy Haas , Deanna Jucknik , Lisa Keirn , Lisa Knappenberger , Jenny Koehler , Luan Matoushek , Wendy Smith and Cindy Wamsley .

tournament; and softball . Also , two of our sisters are women's doubles badmin­ton champions of intramurals .

Big Sis' Lil' was a real treat . The ac­tives had to dress up as Nursery Rhyme characters such as Mother Goose, Little Bo Peep and Little Boy Blue . Everyone had a blast.

We had three rush parties this semes­ter. The first one was a Tau Wonderland party. We asked trivia questions that per­tained to winter. We served hot choco­late and popcorn balls . The second party was a St. Patrick's Day party. We played a variety of games and served refresh ­ments . The third was an Open House Rush party , with people just floating in and out on visitation .

To end the semester with a bang, we had our Yellow Rose dinner and dance at a Chinese restaurant. Everyone had a fantastic time. We also had our annual Parent/ Daughter Banquet, where we pre­sented mothers with yellow carnations.

All good things have to come to an end for a semester. We will be ready and geared up to come back next fall and have a very successful formal rush .

Sigma

State College at Buffalo The sisters of Sigma Chapter were

very pleased to initiate 6 new pledges af­ter spring rush. We were proud that they all did so well on their pledge tests .

We were successful raising money and becoming involved with social service projects . An exciting "I Survived the Flood of '85" party helped the chapter to raise $130. That , in addition to dough­nut sale profits helped to fund the concession booth Sigmas sponsored at

Collegians Buffalo State's Second Annual Lawn Chair Day. Profits were used for Sigma's Annual Senior Party.

A Cut-a-thon for a children's hospital was held Valentine's Day with a local beauty salon donating their services. A weekend of selling memberships for the Buffalo Zoo was held in mid-April. Then , AET and Tau Kappa Epsilon co­sponsored Daffodil Days in March.

On-campus, we were involved in in ­tramural and Greek activities . Our floor hockey team , the "Tough Taus" proved to be enthusiastic , if not as successful as we had hoped . Our record of 0-5-1 did not do justice to the amount of fun , spirit and optimism we played to demonstrate.

An AET I AEA picnic was held in the end of April complete with games , supper-swap and secret sisters . The Inter -Greek Association he ld Greek Week during mid-April. Programs such as " Meet the Greeks" and " Greek Games" were slated .

This summer was full of big plans for rush.

Zeta Tau

Longwood College The most noteworthy event this year

was planning and preparing for Zeta Tau's 50th Anniversary. That special day will be remembered for a long time by all of those who took part and created spe­cial memories.

Spring rush was an active time for us . We had a "Name that Tune" party where sisters and rushees, alike , struggled to fig­ure out the answers. We went to the "Beach" for a day of sun and fun and spent an evening eating popcorn and en­joying "M-TV" in our chapter room.

Greek Week is AET's favorite spring activity and we ended the week with man y trophies . The Phis huffed and puffed a second place in the track meet and swam our way to a second in the swim meet. Being the wild and crazy girls that we are , of course we won first place in Anything Goes!

Phi Chapter wants "Muscle" and that is exactly what we received . Our second annual Mr. SLU body building contest was a huge success; the profits from Mr. SLU were put into our house fund . Look out sorority row here we come!

The Southeast Panhellenic Confer­ence was attended by Colleen Carrigan and Deborah Glaser. The weekend turned out -to be very rewarding . Colleen and Deborah attended many workshops presented by speakers from all over . The

Chi sisters were busy this year staffing concession stands at football and basket­ball games for the college . Other fund raisers included sales during St. Patrick's Day and Easter.

The sisters were especially proud to receive the Panhellenic spirit award . It was the first time the award was ever presented and we enjoy going down in the college's history . We held the posi­tion of vice-president of Pan he llenic.

Chis were active with other Greeks in the campus' information picnics and with other A2::T's at the Regional Leadership Workshop held at Indiana University of Pennsylvania .

Collegians theme of "I wish they all could be Alpha Sigma Tau girls ."

We were busy with many social and service activities . We raised money for the chapter through a car wash , trash clean-up , Valentine's balloon sales , bake sale and a men 's night at JMU . We also visited our "grandmother" and gave her flowers for Easter .

In intramurals , we competed in volley­ball , softball , diving , swimming , bas­ketball and track . Our panhellenic involvement included Greek Week , a blood drive and Panhel Social Service Week. We sang our hearts out to some of our alumni who attended Greek Sing, and learned a lot from the Greek leader­ship workshop.

On campus, the Psis danced in the Super Dance for Muscular Dystrophy and participated in the student govern­ment elections. We were able to buy a new carpet for the foyer , and a vacuum to keep it at its best.

Alpha Epsilon

Western Illinois University The Taus of Alpha Epsilon are simply

shining after a super semester filled with excitement , accomplishments , new pro­grams and fun! The semester started with a great rush . We got nine great girls and once again Alpha Epsilon was the only chapter on campus to wi ll the sorority to­tal of 85 . Our new pledges are Sherrie Lewis , Dannette Knott , Karen Baines , Marcia Christoffel , Debbie Schoen , Mary Towmey, Jennifer McCord , Lori Sivi­enty and Jodi Johnson. We are all so

proud of them and the activities they did during our new pledge program .

Our pledge trainer, Denise Stephens, designed a new program full of fun activi­ties to promote better relations between the active members and the pledges . Some of the activities were a scavenger hunt , fun with all the pledges classes still present in AE, Mom steal, daughter steal , house take-over, games night with events such as "Name your pledge/ sister", and philanthropies like raising money for Eas­ter Seals .

The AE Chapter raised money for American Heart Association by going door-to-door at the houses in Macomb. We also had a balloon drive for the Heart Associatio n . Our traditional money­maker, the Alpha Sigma Tau Sweetheart Calendar is being prepared by calendar chair Beth Dollar for the beginning of the semester next year. The calendar features WIU's top-ten men in categories such as academics , activities on campus and , of course , looks!

One of the highlights of our semester was an exchange we had with the Al­pha Sigma Alpha sorority. We played games , watched movies and ate pop­corn . It was a super way of promoting Greek relations while having fun , and we also discovered how very much alike all sororities are . Hopefully, it will become a tradition with AE .

Our social chair , Marla Newman , did a great job putting together other social ac­tivities this semester- a "Spring Break" exchange with S igma Nu fratern ity, which was held the weekend before spring break ; a hog-roast at the Alpha Gamma Rho house with Delta Sigma

Phi fraternity, Alpha Gamma Rho frater­nity , Alpha Sigma Alpha and Sigma Sig­ma Sigma sororities and us ; our spring party which was held on a riverboat on the Mississippi River in Davenport , Iowa and our annual kidnap party . Promoting Greek relations has been a pleasure for the Taus at W!U .

The highlight of our semester was win­ning Greek Week for the second year in a row. We placed first over all the sorori­ties. Throughout the week we had activi­ties such as a Sigma Sing, in which we placed second, Tug-of-War, God and Goddess Competition , dinner exchang­es, Greek Fair , Dance contest , in which Cathy Chenoweth of AE took first place, and a D. J. contest. One fun event that all sororities and fraternities took part in during the week was a Super-dance. We danced for six hours to raise money for Muscular Dystrophy. More than $3,000 was made . We are proud of our sister Denine Guy , who was the chair of Greek Week , along with a Delta Sigma Phi brother . Other chairs on the Greek week committee from our chapter included Laura Anderson and Liza Zabel. Kelly Richardson, our Goddess representative , came in first runner up in the competi­tion. What an exciting week it was, espe­cially when we received the Spirit Award for the entire week .

Ann Kilbourne , our chaplain , and Kel­ly Richardson , song chair , began a new AE tradition : the "Tau Sweetheart Sere­nade ." When a fraternity member gives a sister a lavaliere , pin or becomes en­gaged to one of our sisters , we sing four songs at the fraternity chapter meeting and present the lucky man with a flower .

We just chose new officers and are psyched for a terrific year ahead of us . We are working together to become even better , because that is what we be­lieve Alpha Sigma Tau is all about!

They managed to get Johnny Sportcoat and the Causals along with the Skip Castro Band to keep the dancers going for the 28 hours marathon . Games and contests were planned to keep the dancers' spirits up and help them to have a good time . Many Alpha Lambdas participated in this successful event to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association .

Finally , at the end of March came Sweethearts. It was held at the Blacks­burg Marriott and included dinner, dancing , a slide show and an awards ceremony. It was a fantastic banquet .

The next major event on the Alpha Lambda ca lendar was the Regional Leadership Workshop . Highlights of the weekend were a banquet , rush skits and awards and the chance to be with sisters from all over .

Greek Week at Radford held sporting events, trivia bowl and a dart tourna­ment. The pizza eating contest was right up Alpha Lambda's alley ; first place was no problem . AET took first place in tug­of-war; second place in the relay race , egg toss , and mile relay and third place in the egg eating contest, chariot races and the obstacle course.

AET won several Panhellenic awards: Efficiency Bowl , Pledge Scholarship , and the Scholarship Bow. We also re­ceived one of the Panhellenic Awards of Excellence .

These major events didn't stop Alpha Lambda from its regular routine . We had a doughnut sale and a candy sale to raise money for sweethearts. Our chap­ter has adopted a child from Equador.

We visit the elderly in a nearby nursing home and drive them to the grocery store.

It was a busy, but successful semester for Alpha Lambda .

Money was raised for the chapter through sub , candy and raffle ticket sales, and the sisters helped the Lions Club sort through tin cans and the Can­cer Society sell daffodils .

Alpha Xis participated in Greek Week and a Panhellenic Volleyball Tourna­ment. Letter day saw all the Greeks on campus, including the sisters of Alpha Xi , wearing their letters and the chap­ter supported college athletic teams as spectators.

The chapter lounge is now a little more entertaining , thanks to the addition of a TV and HBO .

Alpha Pi

Slippery Rock The sisters of Alpha Pi are excited to

announce the we have rented a house . We were nervous about the responsibi­lity , but with the encouragement of our alumnae we decided to take the step . Ten girls will move in next fall and we spent most of the summer finding fur­nishings for it.

Our western theme during Rush must have shot pledges right where it count­ed , because we gained 11 pledges for our Beta Beta class .

The sisters and pledges were active in many ways . Alpha Pi sponsored two raf­fles that were based on the daily number winners of the PA lottery. We held a Walk-a-thon for Cystic Fibrosis where we walked 18 miles along with members of the community .

The Alpha Pis participated in intramu­ral basketball and although we did not place , we had a great time .

Delta Zeta sorority held an all-sorority cookout this year. Tammie Schmieler was appointed public relations chairper­son of Panhellenic. The Alpha Pis made it to quarter finals in the College Bowl.

Our three-year reign as Greek Week champions was ended this year when we placed second behind the sisters of EEE. Greek Sing was postponed until next se­mester , and we participated in a Clean­up America event with the SRU Greeks and picked up litter in Slippery Rock in April.

Our alumnae have been very support­ive this year, not only with the house , but also during Greek Week . We have decided to start an alumnae newsletter to help us stay in close contact .

Alpha Sigma

Northeast Missouri State University

The spring semester at Northeast Mis­souri State University was very active for the Alpha Sigma Chapter .

The semester started with a successful open rush . The week included a roller skating party , a "Rock with AET party", and a "Mount Tahoe" party . At the con­clusion of the week , every bid extended was accepted making this the most suc­cessful rush of the chapter. Spring Rush '85 also had the largest spring pledge class ever.

Early in the semester fund raisers were held for Pine Mountain Environmental Center. The climax of all the hard work was a trip to Bledsoe , KY over spring break .

In March , the Kirksville alumnae chap­ter sponsored a St. Patrick's Day party which gave the pledges a chance to meet the alumnae . In April , we held our an ­nual Yellow Rose Formal with the theme : "All I Need" . Many alumnae traveled to be with the chapter at this event.

Also during April the annual Panhel­lenic/ IFC-sponsored Greek Week was held. The chapter captured many hon­ors. The week , chaired by Alpha Sigma's Melody Marcantonio began with a torch­walk followed by the volleyball game be­tween the sororities on campus, Alpha Sigma won. During the awards banquet , Suzanne Blair was presented the Out­standing Greek Woman award and chapter adviser Ricki Trosen was pre­sented the Outstanding Adviser award .

Alpha Tau

Edinboro Disappointed with a formal rush that

18

Collegians only brought in two pledges, the sisters of Alpha Tau stirred up their determina­tion and gained six more pledges during open rush.

Formal rush parties included a Mexi­can Trivial Pursuit Night. One open rush party was a beach party , where sisters imitated singers , hosted by Joan Rivers. Another was "Rock with ASTs", where sisters performed popular dances over the years , and explained how AST changed and improved with them .

A Valentine flower day sale and raffle and bake sales raised money for the chapter and sisters also worked as ushers in the concession stands at the Erie Youth Theater.

Alpha Taus placed third overall in Greek Week activities , winning first place in the swimming contest. The chapter also ran with the brothers of Phi Kappa Psi and helped the college by participat­ing in the annual alumni phonathon .

Through a week of fun and games the drive and enthusiasm of the chapter nev­er ended . The excitement is already growing for next year's attempt at Greek

Week. LET'S GO FOR IT GIRLS! Our rush season started as a booming

success and out from it blossomed 18 new pledges. Some of our rushes includ­ed a "Storybook", "Revenge of the Nerds" and "Stars and Stripes" rush, where Susie Atkinson , one of our colony members , joined us . Susie's enthusiasm for AST and the chapter helped to show rushees the importance and the wonder­ful things AST has to offer . When Susie was through her talk to the rushees , we thanked her with a gift of an AST lavalier-something she has always wanted .

Preparations are underway for the Re­gional Leadership Workshop to be held in the fall. We are looking forward to be­ing the host chapter and meeting all the sisters who will be joining us .

This spring we held our Yellow Rose Formal and we are pleased to award Top Tau to Judy Cuffaro and Laurie Walter the Lisa Jo Ziegler Award . Every­one had a wonderful time . There was a fabulous buffet prepared for dinner , and the evening was topped off with a wide selection of songs arranged by the D. J .

As the spring draws to a close , we bid farewell to 14 seniors with tearful eyes . We wish them the best in the future and thank them for all their dedication .

Beta Eta

Southern Illinois Beta Eta has been very busy this

school year. We started the winter off with a Nerd/ Nerdette party and saw some hilarious costumes . We gave AST mugs to the best dressed Nerds and Nerdettes .

We attended a local talk show (like Donahue) and all of us got to be on T .V.! We sold carnations on Valentine's Day and delivered them to school offices and apartments . Besides being fun , we made $600 to use toward our Spring Formal.

Rush party themes were "At the Mov­ies" and "Beach Party Fun". For "At the Movies", we seated our rushees as if they were at a movie theater and served popcorn during our slide show. Two sis­ters were dressed as ushers and old movie posters hung from the walls . As a result of these parties , we are proud to welcome new members Nikki Johnson Danette Dorsey and Eileen Baggot. Th~ new pledges were Mary Ann Rinehart and Lisa Davis .

Our biggest service project this y ar

We also held a Mother/ Daughter brunch and gave every sister an award, even if it was "The sister who attended the most rock concerts."

This year we adopted three new mas­cots . Alvin, Simon and Theodore-The Chipmunks. When they sit on our rush table , their T-shirts read AST .

Summer plans include a picnic with Beta Psi Chapter from St. Louis Univer­sity. We wish the best of luck and will miss our graduating sisters-Nancy Hanks , Kathi Klingele and Lynn Elliot.

Beta Tau

University of Lowell Beta Tau was busy as usual during

spring semester. We have increased our membership by fourteen new sisters . Di­ane Capone (rush director) and Donna Marie Grenier (pledge director) should especially be thanked for their efforts .

In January, we spent our Winter Help Weekend in Glouchester , MA. The sis­ters had a great time "breaking in" our pledges-teaching them some of our crazy songs and games as well as infor­mation needed for their pledge exam and some of the traditions and rituals of Alpha Sigma Tau .

In March , we participated in Greek Week at U. of Lowell. Events included a pie eating contest , bed races, a movie night in which we gave out free popcorn and soda , and informational booths set up on campus.

Beta Tau placed second overall in the Greek Olympics in April. We won the tug-of-war and Terri Pollock placed first in the 2 .7 mile road race.

Pledges were busy with fundraising which included coffee and doughnut sales, a raffle, and Tuck Ins. For one dollar, a student could get a bedtime sto­ry and tucked into bed . What a deal! The sisters' fundraising included chocolate Valentine lollipop sales , a raffle , button sales , selling custom engraved glass­ware, and a hamburger day.

Some social service projects we have done include a Blood Drive , sending supplies to Pine Mountain , working with Delta Kappa Phi on their annual Big Brother / Big Sister Day, and helping to open St. Mary's Camp in Tyngsboro,

Our Spring Help Weekend was held at a camp in Tyngsboro , MA . Activities in­cluded "the usual" plus a workshop on interpersonal relations and working to­gether, and creating a "custom made" tablecloth with all of our names , nick­names , sayings and events to remember , and pictures drawn on it . The weekend was a fun time once again .

Beta Tau was visited by girls from Southeastern Mass . University who are interested in colonizing AST there . We taught them a little about ourselves and we hope to be involved in their getting started .

Beta Theta

St. Mary's University The Beta Theta Chapter at St. Mary's

University in San Antonio, TX "rushed" into the new spring semester. Planned by Leslie Smith, rush chair, rushees learned "The ABC's of AST," "Wished Upon a Star with Alpha Sigma Tau ," and after a few weeks 12 pledges eventually became 12 enthusiastic new members .

Sponsored by the Beta Theta Chapter for the first time , the highlight of the spring semester was the Regional Lead­ership Workshop , held the weekend of February 15-17 . Chapters from Oklaho­ma , Louisiana and Arkansas attended the activity-filled weekend. Workshops of finance , public relations , social service and rush/ pledge were given by the na­tional officers Bobbie Nichols , Patricia Nayle , Ann Girardot and Cathy Crape!. Song and rush-skit competitions provid­ed variety to the workshop-filled day .

On the social service scene, the Beta Theta Chapter and Delta Sigma Phi fra­ternity coordinated the fourth annual Easter Party at the Delta's fraternity house . San Antonio's underprivileged children enjoyed such games as "Duck, Duck, Goose ," " Red Light , Green Light ," as well as hunting for hidden Easter eggs . The children's smiles and laughter made the effort worthwhile .

Beta Theta also engaged in numerous social activities. "The Great Escape" dance was Beta Theta's main fund rais­ing activity . St. Mary's students "es­caped" from studying and schoolwork for a few hours as they rocked and rolled to the tunes jammed out by "The Se­cret" , one of San Antonio's hottest bands .

Beta Theta 's athletic side shone through as we participated in Greek Week . Jennifer Utterback, athletic direc­tor, coordinated Beta Theta's participation in activities such as tug o'war , Dizzy-lzzy, and the egg toss . Although Beta Theta came in a respectable third , we were first again in the food-and-drink-consuming activities .

Beta Nu

Bloomsburg University The spring semester was enjoyable

and prosperous for the Beta Nu Chap­ter. Our "Spring Break '85 - Ft. Lauder­dale" rush theme brought us 11 great new sisters. They include Jaime Betz , Barbara Bilger , Chris Eiswert , Karen Fisher, Noreen Hanus , Andrea Kehoe , Karen Pike , Amy Savastio, Gigi Speak­er, She lly Stoudt and Shirley Way.

During rush we held an informal cere­mony for our graduation seniors . Five sisters will be leaving us . We wish them the best and look forward to their future visits .

To raise money for our sorority, we showed the movie Trading Places. Mon­etary door prizes were awarded . This proved to be profitable for us and fun for everyone who attended .

A high point in our semester occurred at the end of April when our national Di­rector of Alumnae, Mrs. Terri Dudley, came to visit. Each sister met with her and some dined with her. We also en­joyed the company of Gamma District President Miss Amy Dupree who visited us in February .

Alpha Sigma Tau once again actively participated in Greek Week at B.U. We beat seven other sororities in the chariot race , making us the champs for that event. We took another first in the keg toss and second in the 440-yard relay . We closed the week with Greek Sing, singing up a storm to tunes from the movie Anima/ Ho use .

We closed our semester with our An­nual Yellow Rose Formal. The banquet was held at The Woodlands, a posh ho­tel located in Wilkes Barre , PA. Every­one had a marve lo us time dining and dancing .

Strong Panhellenic bonds were built with the Phi S igma Sigmas as we housed their advisers for weeks during their colonization .

We have accomplishments that we're very proud of; some of these are our Greek Week trophies . We won first place in canoe, a first place in tugs (for the third year in a row) , and the Spirit tro­phy, which is the highest award among the Greeks. Congratulations goes to Gail Richardson who received the award as one of the the top ten Panhel women on Eastern's campus . Four Taus were cho­sen among other Greek women to be Rho Chis for fall rush .

Beta Phi

California University of PA The sisters of Beta Phi capitalized on

Valentine's Day by holding a rush party where everyone wore something red . The skit "Put your heart in AST" must have been successful as 13 pledge sisters

were gained . The chapter was supportive of the Re­

gional Leadership Workshop held in Indi­ana PA as 14 sisters were able to attend. The~ brought back many ideas which will make the chapter more efficient.

Raffle ticket and hoagie sales were held often and an Easter party was a big hit with children from the Headstart Program .

On campus, the sisters showed their team spirit sporting letters during a bas­ketball game . They also participated with fellow Greeks during a Greek clean-up and a canned food drive . Greek Week was held the end of April , along with an all-Greek picnic .

Alumnae were invited to a special initi­ation ceremony that included a candle­lighting in the president's office . Beta Phis are busy looking for a house to rent together.

Beta Chi

Ferris State College Alpha Sigma Tau joined the other

three NPC sororities on the campus of Ferris State College in Big Rapids , Michi­gan in the fall of 1983.

The initial invitation to Alpha Sigma Tau to colonize on the campus came in January , 1983 after a presentation was made by Mrs . Thomas J. King , Jr. , then National President , and Miss Michelle May , then Alpha District President in November , 1982.

Ferris State College, located approxi­mately 55 miles from Grand Rapids , and founded in 1884, opened its doors to open rush activities on September 26 for the women on campus. Lisa Mercier, the Traveling Counselor conducted a presen­tation and interviewed interested women . Nine bids were issued to the first colony sisters and the official pledging was held on October 3 , 1983 for the nine wom­en - Chris Berry, Kelly Chittenden , Mari­anne Faulk , Bridget Fitzgerald , Dianne Govan , Kelli LeBarre , Vicki Rau , Kelli Sisson , Stephanie Weidner. From these nine women , Beta Chi colony grew dur­ing the coming year by working together as a sisterhood with various program requirements . The sisters of Beta Chi participated in many campus and greek activities-in fundraisers such as car washes and raffles , in Philanthropic pro­jects as donating a Christmas Tree to Project FATE to aid underprivileged children .

In the year from the time Beta Chi col­ony was established to the date the

were initiated , they received much sup­port from the AST sisters from Beta C hapter. They also received support and assistance fro m the two National Colony Advisers during their growing period from Miss Ann Marie Carro ll and Mrs . James Gruber.

In December, 1984 after Mrs. Gruber had made a visit to the colony to review the group's progress on the sorority's program requirements , the Director of Expansion and the National President made the decision that Beta Chi colony should be installed as a chapter .

March 16, 1985 was the date set for the big event. Bright and early at 9 :30 a.m. on March 16, the initiation service began , with the following sisters serving as the installing officers-Mrs . William Fowler , National President ; Mrs . Charles R. McCrory , NPC Delegate ; Mrs. James Gruber , National Colony Adviser ; Mrs . Marijo Gosselink , National Parliamentar­ian ; Mrs. Missy Parks , Alpha District President ; and Mrs . Lucille Younce , President of the West Suburban Chicago Alumnae Chapter. Nancy Starr , Kristy Green , Sue Rose , and Marcie Lehr , all sisters of Beta Chapter, also were pres­ent and assisted with the service .

When the initiation service was com­pleted at noon , thirteen collegians and four alumnae women were our newest full -fledged members of Beta Chi and Alpha Sigma Tau . The four alumnae ini­tiated were Bea Mulcahy , adviser , Heather Huber , Assistant adviser, and Mary Ann Faulk and Chris Hanson . In the collegiate numbers were Michelle Andrus , Maureen Asher , Kelly Chit­tenden , Candi Clark , Kimberly Curtis , Tammy Furst , Tracy Hughes , Debie Krueger , Cyndi Linner , Cheryl Patter­son , Sue Pauli , Kathy Simpson , and Debbie Waterman .

Funds were raised for charity and fun was had for sisters during the Sigma Chi Derby days , with competition among so­rorities in contests such as skit making

and Miss Derby Days . We also spon­sored a basketball game with Phi Delta Kappa fraternity . Afterwards , there was a spirit dance at Kiel Auditorium , where a cash prize was awarded to the Greek organization that displayed the most spir­it during the game.

Spring semester saw us as president of the Panhellenic Council , during which time a new constitution was written .

We sponsored a luncheon for area alumnae . It gave the graduating seniors an opportunity to learn about an alum­nae group and a chance for us to be­come reacquainted with area alums .

During the summer plans included a swimming party and on the more serious side , an envelope stuffing fundraiser.

Gamma Alpha

Rio Grande College On May 18, 1985 Alpha Sigma Tau

installed a new collegiate chapter in the state of Ohio , and the first national so­rority on the campus of Rio Grande College . The college , located in Rio Grande , Ohio, was established in 1976 and over the years has been a denomi­national college , a two-year college , a self-he lp student work college , and a four year liberal arts college . Rio Grande College sits on a campus in the beautiful Appalachian foothills .

The new chapter evolved from a cul­mination of activities that were initiated in May , 1984 when a local sorority known as Zeta Theta Chi expressed in ­terest in affiliating with an NPC sorority . In early October , 1984, Nan Church of the sorority requested AST to make an expansion presentation . Miss Susan Rogers , National Treasurer , traveled to the campus and spoke with the women of Zeta Theta Chi. The next day the sorority was calling to say that they want­ed to petition Alpha Sigma Tau . Thanks­giving came early for our sorority when the Director of Expansion received the petitioning materials from the women of Zeta Theta Chi.

The local sorority composed of 18 col­legiate women and an advisor at the time of petitioning, came to affiliate with AST after a long history as a local sorori­ty . Established in 1968, the sorority's major aims were 1) to coordinate and promote student activities ; 2) to promote better acad!2mic grades; 3) to help im­prove the school and the community ; 4) to maintain and promote the standards of Rio Grande College ; 5) to foster

21

Gamma Alpha In stallation .

friendships that will endure; and 6) to promote worthwhile ideals . Over the years , their aims have been followed through their involvement in campus and community affairs which led Alpha Sigma Tau to approve the petition .

The new year started out with a bang and a lot of cold chilling weather and lots of snow, when AST officially held the pin pledging ceremony on January 20 , 1985 , after a productiv e training weekend .

Three alumnae- Patricia Nayle , Di­rector of Expansion , Susan Rogers , National Treasurer , and Ann Gruber , National Colony Adviser-conducted the various meetings and pledging ceremony to train the women on our tra­ditions and operations. With the 15 col­legiate women that were pledged were also three local advisers who chose to affiliate with AST.

Within two weeks after the official colony was established, Gamma Alpha colony had rushed 21 new pledges. These rush results were only one of the many program requirements that the women of Gamma Alpha fulfilled during the next four to five months as a colony .

Collegians In March , Ann Gruber , the National

Colony Adviser , made an inspection visit to Gamma Alpha to determine the prog­ress of the colony toward the program requirements . In April , she reported her findings to the National President and Director of Expansion , and after deliber­ations a decision was made that Gamma Alpha was ready to be installed as a chapter .

With the decision made , plans quickly were implemented for the installation ac­tivities set for May 18. After much time and effort on the part of the collegiate and alumnae women , the national or­ganization, and the national staff in ­volved, the scene was the Fine Arts Building at 9:00a .m ., May 18. To assist Gail Fowler , National President , with the initiation service were Patricia Nayle , Di­rector of Expansion; Susan Rogers , Na­tional Treasurer ; Ann Gruber , National Colony Adviser; Ferne Phipps, NPC Al­ternate Delegate ; Missy Parks , Alpha District President; and Mary Ellen Will­milch , Lambda District President. The initiation service was more than a special occasion-it was a memorable event. Along with the 28 collegians , 3 local ad­visers , and 2 local alumnae who had been recent collegians were two women who were charter members of the origi­nal local sorority .

AST was proud to initiate the follow­ing women into our sisterhood : Doris Gettinger and Caroline Ice , charter members of the original local sorority; Nanette Church and Michelle Scott , alumnae affiliates ; Doris Ross , Karen Thomas, and Judy Webb, advisers for the chapter ; and the collegiate sisters of Kathy Ault, Angela Beans , Sue Berry , Sonia Butts , Kelly DeWitz , Deanna Full­er , Theresa Hadley , Susan Halpin , Daphne Heidtman , Audrey Howdyshell ,

After a wonderful morning, many of the sisters converged to a local restaurant for a light lunch and some socializing. The celebration continued that evening with an installation banquet in the James A. Rhodes Student Center on the Rio Grande College campus. After a deli­cious meal and the keynote address by Mrs . Fowler , the presentation began . Mrs . Fowler presented the charter to El­len Oprisch , president of Gamma Alpha . Miss Nayle presented the certificate of in­stallation to Mr. Mark Abell , Director of Student Development , to show our sup­port of the sorority and the administra­tion . Ellen Oprisch also had the pleasure of receiving the president's gavel from Mrs . Gruber , with the plaque being pre­sented by Miss Rogers . Miss Parks and Miss Willmitch had the delightful experi­ence to present various gifts from the National Council , the national organiza­tion , and alumnae and collegiate sisters and chapters to celebrate Gamma Al­pha's founding . Mrs . Phipps conducted the traditional candlelighting ceremony with much expression and seriousness to end a lovely evening. Or so we thought it was the end . A local college choral group , known as the Grande Chorale , of which several Gamma Alpha sisters were members , entertained the AST sisters and their guests with many spiritual and great listening tunes- what a wonderful way to conclude a very productive and memorable weekend .~

Members also supported two of the Alpha Tau girls who danced a 30 hour dance marathon during Greek Week. The funds were used to support the Edinboro Food Bank. Way to go twin­kle toes!!!

Another social service project was the Erie County Special Olympics. This year alumnae assisted at the swim meet as "huggers", timers and lifeguard . Every attendance at the Special Olympics is a very gratifying and fun experience .

In March another future AET joined our ranks with the birth of Meghan to Chuck and Diana Bool. It is their second little angel. She wll be a super sister!!

On May 11 the annual Mother ­Daughter Luncheon was held at Henry's Restaurant. It is always a pleasure to see the moms again . The event doubled as a rush function for several women we hope to affiliate in the fall .

INDIANAPOLIS Always Busy

Learning more about the culture and lifestyles of other nations is becoming the traditional fall program for the Indian­apolis Area Alumnae Chapter . "The Philippines ," a nation engaged in much controversy and turmoil , became the timely topic for our first meeting of 1985. Our speaker , Mabel Matzey , spent many years as a missionary in the Philippine Islands ; and through her presentation of slides , art work and recent correspond­ence from friends still living there , we were able to gain a better insight into the customs, lifestyle and ambitions of its people not obtained from newspaper headlines .

Founders' Day was celebrated at our meeting on November 21 , 1985, with the slide presentation from Pine Moun­tain Settlement in Kentucky . This pro­gram was of special interest inasmuch as none of us have had the opportunity yet to visit the settlement , and we became aware of how important the project is and how critical our donations are to the continued operation of Pine Mountain .

Our local social service project is an on -going relationship with " Luther­wood ," a residential treatment center for emotionally disturbed children.

nity Hospital , contributed to that process by presenting a program on Premens­trual Syndrome. The group learned about the symptoms and management tech­niques of coping with PMS.

From adult problems to a child's de­light, the Indianapolis Alumnae hosted the Easter Egg Hunt for Lutherwood . The strong winds and brisk atmosphere didn't dampen the spirits for the springtime fun . Prizes were awarded in different catego­ries for collection of eggs.

Fund raising played an important role this year for the Indy group . The chapter literally "wrapped-up" 1984 by parti­cipating in the annual Panhellenic Christmas Gift Wrap . As a member of Panhellenic, each sorority has the oppor­tunity to become involved with this spe­cial event fund raiser. Funds are dispersed based upon hours worked . The annual Spring fund raiser is a lawn sale . With the assistance of good weather the sale was a success .

With the arrival of Spring thoughts turn to socializing and being with other AET alumnae . The annual Spring luncheon was held at James Tavern , Keystone-at­the-Crossings. As a tradition , nearby alumnae chapters are invited to attend.

LEHIGH VALLEY Aids Public TV

In the blustery month of January , members decided to create their own sundaes after the regular business meeting . Each sister brought a favorite sundae topping while hostess , Joanne Dunstan , provided the ice cream. It was an evening to truly enjoy each other's company .

The club's Founders' Day was cele­brated in March with a cocktail party at Julie Frazier's home . A sampling of ev­eryone's hors d'oeuvres made both sis­ters and husbands happy. The girls tromped the guys in a late night Trivial Pursuit match! Way to go girls!

The election of officers proved that all are doing so well in their present posi­tions that they were re-elected!

The May dinner was held at Laraine Demshock's home where alumnae en­joyed an Italian feast to which everyone contributed their specialty . A few infor­mal gatherings were held during the summer; a Broadway play and a day at the casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Members volunteered their time on Mother's Day evening to take bids on public television 's Great On Air Auction , the Valley's most watched TV event.

ROANOKE Has a Heart The heart of alumnae activities in

Roanoke was the Valentine Party for the

Alumnae emotionally disturbed children at Chil­dren's Center. Each child received gifts at the party and during the year items needed by the children are purchased with funds raised by selling Current items and holding teacup auctions . Pine Mountain was also sent funds .

The Christmas meeting is made spe­cial through the hand made ornaments and Christmas cookies that are ex­changed .

ST. LOUIS Is Entertained The St. Louis Alums started the

Christmas season with a pot luck dinner at Alice and Bill Vit's home early in De­cember. Not sure whether the men or la­dies were the big winners of the "horse race". During Christmas week many members attended the luncheon at Sap­pington House (1808) Bar Tea Room .

In March, money was made for social service projects by selling tickets for "Ev-

Foundation

erybody Loves Opal" at St . Louis Uni­versity's dinner theater.

In April , the Beta Psi collegiates gave a tea for the St. Louis Alums. They had lots and lots of food . It was a great chance to know each other .

ALPHA SIGMA TAU NATIONAL FOUNDATION

J. 0. POLLACK SOCIAL SERVICE SCHOLARSH P

" . . . to contribute my share to the progress of

mankind . .. "

Shelley Diane Bates of Beta Mu chapter at Salisbury State College was announced the winner of the 1984 J. 0. Pollack Scholarship .

Regarded highly for her dedication to the social serv­ice aspect of Alpha Sigma Tau, she has always been concerned with the well-being of others. This is one of the main reasons she joined Alpha Sigma Tau .

A Nursing student at Salisbury State College , she has received her certificate as a Geriatric Nursing Assistant. Along with her school involvements she has been Presi­dent of Nanticoke Hall , first runner up on the Home­coming Court, student manager of Ruth Powell Dining Hall , three times nominated "Student of the Month", and Secretary/ Treasurer of her sophomore, junior and senior classes .

As for her sorority achievements she received the "Best Pledge" award , the "3.0 Award" twice and the "Spirit Award" three times. During rush Shelley traveled to a fellow AET chapter to help provide the chapter with ideas and useful hints on how to encourage the young ladies on campus to look into sorority life .

One of Shelley's greatest social service accomplish-

28

ments was the adoption of the Drayton family . She took it upon herself to gather information from a social worker about a needy family in her community . She became very involved with this family . The chapter bought win­ter coats for three girls , took them to the zoo , the park , and roller skating. The chapter has developed a loving bond with the family . Shelley feels that the beginning of this project was an eventful one in that it has been a con­tinuing service that Beta Mu Chapter has undertaken with their service to this family .

Programs with the Holly Center, a home for the men­tally retarded in Salisbury , were set up by Shelley so the chapter could make social service calls several times a year. She also initiated the Deershead Nursing Home project where the chapter visits the elderly and assists the clients while they are on the kidney dialysis unit.

Shelley believes these projects have helped to heighten the chapter's awareness that civic services are a very important and necessary aspect of the sorority which still supports the idea that Alpha Sigma Tau was established to help promote the progress of mankind . ~
