Goals for sorority growth

The bright colors of autumn are now upon us and before we even re alize it another season will pass . I know we must let the seasons scurry by, but let us remember to safeguard our future. For this year , I would like to set some realistic goals which I hope each of you will help me to accomplish . To our collegiate sisters , I ask each of you to reflect upon why you joined Alpha Sigma Tau and share that reason with at least ten potential members . As a chapter, I urge you to evaluate your academic class size and maintain an adequate balance while rushing and pledging quota . Chapter officers , you can make your chapter stronger by training those who follow you . Enable your chapter to grow in strength by constructively evaluating your rush , pledge and other programs and make the necessary adjustments upon what you have learned . When you transfer or graduate let us know what special area you would like to volunteer to help Alpha Sigma Tau. By serving on the staff, I strongly believe you help enrich your life and others . I urge you to serve through

your term of office , faithfully performing your duties. Feel free to offer new ideas for creative projects as you monitor and guide our sorority . Alumnae growth is the continued lifeblood of our sorority . As an alum nae I hope you will realize that your active membership is greatly appreciated . You have so many opportunities to help Alpha Sigma Tau grow by serving on the staff as advisors , committee chairpersons , Council or District Presidents ; promoting expansion through the Director of Expansion ; establishing alumnae chapters within your area ; volunteering to serve on committees ; paying your annual dues ; submitting articles to the Editor for publication about your career or life ; and , attending Region al Leadership Workshops . These are but a few ways that you can assist AET. My personal goals are to fill the positions of all Chapter Advisors, Assistant Chapter Advisors and Chapter Consultants to provide the needed support system for our chapters . I would also like to see all alumnae in Alpha Sigma Tau active , creating a strong volunteer base for our sorority . Since I have recently returned from the annual National Foundation meeting , another goal I feel strongly about is working cooperatively with the Foundation to help the Foundation reach its goals thereby securing AETs future . Another personal goal I have is to help Council develop further pro-

grams for both the collegiate and alumnae chapter's needs . We have several long range programs underway which will enable all of us to expand our horizons . Yes, the seasons change : so does Alpha S igma Tau . But even though we change we must be careful to step into the future better prepared than before . We must progress into the future with a fury of colors gracefully depicting our traditions and carrying onward the torch of Alpha Sigma Tau . This torch of history became more apparent to me recently after receiving a letter fro m Mrs . Haswell E. Staehle , Presiden t Emerita . Mrs . Staehle wrote , " It was exactly 50 years ago in 1934 when I was elected as third National President. My son was only six months old at the time , and , so , getting away was not easy . Then , m y second son , George , was born in 1937 . The pleasure of all this was that all chapters and members cooperated so well ." Already I have had so many beautiful notes, cards and letters of support . Your cooperation and love is what makes Alpha Sigma Tau so meaningful . "Grant us brotherhood , not only for this day , but for all our years-a brotherhood not of words but of acts and deeds ." Stephen Vincent Benet Love in our sisterhood Gail Fowler (Mrs . Willi~m) National President

Profile

Gail Fowler National President, 1984-1988

Dedicated to the advancement of Alpha Sigma Tau Gail Fowler is a unique individual. She has a special knack of putting everyone she meets at ease. An d this goes beyond the bonds of sisterhood in Alpha Sigma Tau . She is quiet , thoughtful and , at the same time , exudes confidence with her positive outlook toward life and toward AI:T. Gail is an excellent listener, and she admits that she would like for the members to use her as a sounding board . . . listening to ideas and coming to a workable solution . Pledged to Alpha Sigma Tau in 1972 at Alpha Lambda Chapter at Radford , she served as vice president of the college panhellenic her junior year and president in her senior year. She was graduated from Radford University in Virginia in 1975 with a double major in early childhood education and special education . Currently Gail attends graduate school at Salisbury State and hopes to finish her masters de 8

gree in education with an emphasis in supervision in the spring of 1985 . While attending graduate school she met her husband Bill Fowler and they were married August 18 in a small fam ily wedding . To say that 1984 brought changes to her life would be an understatement. Like Gail , Bill is also a teacher : seventh grade history and 12th grade economics and is teaching an American history course for the first time this fall . As she describes her husband , you feel she might also be talking about herself when she says he is a " humanist , a person who cares about people ." They both enjoy the beach and swimming and frequently get away to the Atlantic Ocean which is about 30 minutes from their home in Salisbury , Maryland . Another of their favorite pasttimes is clamming ; he is a gourmet cook and she likes tenni and the movies . She grew up in ali bur and h r THE

In addition to her responsibilities to sorority and a pro fessional career , she served three years as a building representative to the Somerset County Teachers Association and on the negotiations team for the past two years. Her hobbies include reading autobiographies about famous people and for mer U.S . Presidents , aerobics , piano , singing in the church choir and traveling. In the next four years as National

President Gail will have plenty of opportunity to travel . . . to chapters for visits , workshops, and as a repre sentative for AET as the occasions arise . "One of my goals is to do more networking . . . between alumnae and collegians . . . between Council and staff . . . and especially among the membership ," she stated . Another goal is to increase the alum nae commitment and strengthen the pool of talented volunteers to serve at the national level on task forces , committees and in staff and Council positions . "Already I have had lots of support and enthusiasm from the sisters. " You could sense during the in stallation ceremony that although she knew she faced an awesome re sponsibili ty , the leadership of the sorority had been passed to a capable , competent individual . . . one who is dedicated to the growth of the sorority and to the myriad of challenges that are ahead .

Closing convention address

Challenges for tomorrow By Sybil King (Mrs. Thomas J., Jr.) National President 1972-1984 Closing a convention always has had a touch of sadness . It is the culmination of what has been an extension of the opportunities of membership. The good times have become happy memories , while things learned and shared have opened more doors of opportunity and growth for self, chapter and the sorority. Being together reinforces the value of AET membership. We , the members of Alpha Sigma Tau today , have inherited the responsibility of holding high and carrying the torch . Not only is membership a privilege , an honor and a responsibility , it carries with it the basic ideals , opportunities , and principles of the American dream . Like the builders of our country , the builders of AET worked loyally and with diligence , committed to the formation of an institution that would enrich and ennoble our lives. Today we stand at the beginning of a new era of Alpha Sigma Tau . The basic concepts will not , nor should they , be altered , while the manner of implementing actions will no doubt be approached differently , as they should . The sorority shall grow in strength and numbers so long as the fundamentals of the sorority are protected . In AET , as in our personal lives, each of us is the sum of those whose lives have affected us . In this man ner I have been exceedingly blessed . Parents who were firm but fair , persistent yet understanding , building confidence in self through insistence of doing a task to be accomplished while guiding and sheltering with 14

love . . . the AET sisters who wanted to share the privilege of membership with me . . . the officers who trained and showed by example the AET portrait of a sister . . . the ad visers who guided and directed the brilliant schemes and ideas that collegians can concoct . . . a supportive , loving husband standing by my side who understood - or tried . . . and , children who shared my time . So let your sorority experience grow-touch other's lives as well as your own-enrich and nobel yourself, leaving wherever you go things that are better because you passed that way and expect nothing less of yourself than your very best. My challenge to you is to make sure the standards, ideals and beliefs of the Sorority are kept strong . Commit yourself to contribute your share , to reach for the goals that are needed to grow and be even stronger, to walk by your sister's side and be a friend . . . she needs you . Remember to be gracious and un derstanding in all your contacts ; be generous with praise ; firm but fair ; slow to criticize and never unjustly . . . and do not be afraid of standing for the right thing to do ; there are others who are waiting to follow you . On August 18, 1972 , I accepted the responsibility of the generosity and confidence of my sisters to assume the office I now relinquish . I said with deep humility and all sincerity , "with God's help , I will do my best. " That vow I have tried to honor . There are many things I would like to have done better ; how-

ever , I hope I have left you determined to carry on and hold the torch high . . Gail Fowler, to you I extend my love and best wishes . As you lead Alpha Sigma Tau , cherish the values of our past , preserve the good that has been achieved , do more than dream ; work towards guiding the Sorority and all its members to grow and prosper as AET can and should . The responsibility you have accepted is great , however , the rewards of this very special opportun ity and honor will enrich and ennoble you our sisters , and those who have not yet had the opportunity to experience what we know about our sisterhood . To all of you assembled here , do not wait for others to step forward to accept the task to be accomplished . Step forward yourself and carry the torch of the sisterhood of AET so that others might see your light and follow . Expect and anticipate the fu ture to be bright , let others see your actions , hear your words and follow your good example . They will be stronger and have more courage to participate and to perpetuate the dream of our sisters , because they see you 'Believe in AET" and share the dream of our Founders , and those who have cared , so that , AET can and will enrich and ennoble th lives of women for all futur g nerations .

Beta Psi Chapter installed at St. Louis University St. Louis University became the home base for another chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau on May 5 , 1984. Founded in 1818, St. Louis University , which is affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church , is located in St. Louis , MO ., the gateway to the west. Installation of our newest chapter was a culmination of several contacts beginning in May 1983 . In October 1983 , Alpha Sigma Tau received notice from the National Panhellenic Conference that a local sorority , known as Theta Phi Theta , founded September 20 , 1972 , was seeking national affiliation. Alpha Sigma Tau made a presentation to 25 members of the local group on November 10 , 1983 . The presentation was conducted by Nancy LaFiore , (Mrs. Jo seph) , Beta Eta Chapter Consultant , with assistance from four Beta Eta collegians and two St . Louis alumnae . Th e Theta Phi Theta sisters , whose purpose was "scholarship , service , leadership , loyalty , and enthusiasm through the bonds of friendship in the sorority as well as on the campus" felt a close bond and spark with the Beta Eta sisters . As a result of this feeling of sisterhood , Theta Phi Theta petitioned Alpha Sigma Tau on December 18, 1983 . This was a wonderful Christmas gift for the sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau .

Pin Pledging Beta Psi colony began its affiliation with pin pledging of 24 women on January 21 , 1984 by Lisa Mercier, Traveling Counselor. Under her direction and supervision , and that of Charlotte Connor, National Colony Adviser , the women of Beta Psi col ony were able to complete their program requirements toward installation.

On the road again By Lisa M ercier Traveling Counselor, 1983-84

There she was , whizzing down the road , singing to the radio , with a silly grin on her face . This was the beginning of a new semester ; one that would teach her many things she'd never considered before . It would take her all over the country , repre senting the sorority she'd pledged just two and a half years before . She'd spend the next four months meeting college sorority sisters , alumnae , and women interested in Alp ha Sigma Tau . She'd help the Sorority perpetuate its values and ideals, and she herself would grow in many ways . All told , this would be the most fun few months in a long time . Thus the silly grin . The semester before had brought her many experiences , but this spring would be another adventure . Well , " no guts , no glory" as they say . The white dashes in the road led her to the day's destination , and she stepped out into the falling snow . The chapter didn 't expect someone so young , but that didn't matter. They were still all Alpha Sigma Tau sisters , and the job couldn't be better. A dream job , seeing the country and gaining that experience you don't quite get in college? The "job" is Traveling Counselor , and the person above is me . The months of August , 1983 16

through Ma y, 1984 , were filled with one experience after another as the full time representative for Alpha Sigma Tau . And I do mean full time . For nine months and 21 ,238 miles , travels took me from my home state of Michigan to Texas , Florida , Vermont , Kan sas , Tennessee and beyond . I covered the Northeast , Mid west , S outh and Southeast . I spent a weekend in New York City , and a night in Paducah, Kentucky . I knew I'd miss school after gradu ation , but I didn 't think I would re turn the very next fall! This new capacity intrigued me , as I returned somewhere between student and administrator . I met with chapters , sometimes helping them improve their pro grams , and I set up two colonies , helping them establish traditions and programs . I also met and talked with alumnae along the way . Mostly I visited college campuses where Alpha S ig ma Tau does not have chapters or colonies . There the adm inistrators or students and I would talk about Greek life , the whole sorority picture , and Alpha Sigma Tau . It's the Traveling Counselor's job to find out the expansion situation at ' ABC University" and to tell the campus administrators why we can make our chapter work there . Then there's a lot of paperwork on both our part and theirs , and ~ e om times receive an in itation to olonize .

yours truly). Late-night roundtables can be fun . Those workshops helped their rush and pledge programs , their unity , or both . If they had a need , we could find a solution . That's what being part of a national sorority is all about. There's something special about any pin pledging , but pledging an entire colony is enough to make the eyes water . Brand new sisters have a contagio us electric spirit that makes working with them exciting. From the first moment you meet , the spirit of sisterhood is apparant. Getting a colony on its feet is rewarding in itself . The group may have its own traditions from its local sorority status , or it may have absolutely no history , colonizing from an open rush system . Either way, sisters make it work , through training and multitudes of questions . And sisters are always there. If you need a place to stay for a night , Actually , it's very interesting learning about the Panhellenic systems at schools across the country . Each one operates differently . That's where having an AI:T liaison comes in . Our National Council could conduct expansion through the mail. But sorority life is a very personal thing , and as we've learned , can't survive through paperwork alone . We send someone to the campus to se lectively relate to the system there . Talking about Alpha Sigma Tau is fun, and so is hearing about other sororities. Whether it's at the Southeastern Panhellenic Conference or at a small midwestern college , the Pan hellenic spirit is alive and well . Sorority sisters from every NPC group share similar goals and beliefs. And talking about them brings out all sorts of ideas and solutions. Being bombarded by ideas isn 't as confusing as it sounds . Most of those ideas were put on hold until , sure enough, an AI:T chapter faced a similar situation. And mostly our chapters had fun reaching their own solutions (direction provided by

Zeta

Lock Haven Under strong leadership , Zeta chapter had a very exciting year. Spring 1984 Rush, with the theme of "Tau Mania" went great with Tama Gray as Rush Chair. The sisters rewrote their favorite Beatles hits into their very own Tau versions. Some of the more popular hits were performed by our sisters in Beatles concerts at round -robin parties . With a ticket to the concert , rushees entered into a room full of Tau gold records such as "Hey Tau " and "With A Little Help From My Sisters ." All sisters dressed in 1960's outfits and cookies shaped and

decorated as records topped off "Tau Mania ." We came out of Rush with seven enthusiastic pledges : Tracy Shomgard , Barbara Leschke , Carol Dawson , Lynne Partridge , Jami Mcintyre , Lisa Hatley and Sheri Kline . Under the direction of Arlene Osa , Deborah Erb and Tina Gardner , the pledges learned a lot about the sorority , good Greek relations , campus offices and organizations , and community facili ties . Academics , trust , time management , pledge unity and cooperativeness were stressed . The Zeta's participated in many activities : the most noteworthy being our an nual Rock a thon . The sisters rocked in chairs for 24 hours and donated the money , about $400 , to the Lock Haven Infant Development Center. We also had a Sponge Throw for the annual Clinton County Children's and Youth Festival. The festival is held to promote awareness of the well being of children in the Clinton County area. An Airband Competition was held by the All-Greek Council and our sisters performed their version of Billy Idol's "White Wedding" with Sandy Bargainnier portraying Billy . We came in fourth place and everyone had a good time . Fundraising , headed by Jeannie Ganther , involved some very wet car washes and yummy bake sales . The funds raised were used for our annual Spring Weekend Yellow Rose Dinner held at the Marriot Essex House in Harrisburg . With the theme "Film Festival ," sisters dressed as their favorite film stars. Dinner , dancing , tennis , swimming , vid eo games and the whirlpool provided for an entertaining evening . During our closed weekend , our District President Amy DuPree came for a visit and to celebrate our local Founder's Day .

Our sweetheart , Dennis Harris , of Sigma Pi fraternity was her king . We had a winning float and won an award for the highest cumulative grade point average . - Deborah Erb

Omicron

Concord College Omicron Chapter has really been working hard this semester and having loads of fun at the same time . We sponsored a chocolate valentine's sucker sale and sold nearly 400 suckers to students , commuters and professors. In February , we held a rush workshop with the help of Cathy Crapet , Director of Collegiate Chapters , and had a fun filled weekend packed full of great ideas for us to use in the future . We initiated three terrific new pledges; Patrice Elder , Rhonda Tabor and Tammy Treadway. Of the rush parties we held , our most successful was the "Oriental Night. " We all dressed as different oriental workers and had our patroness , Mrs . McMichael , show home slides from her trips to the Orient. After this we had rice contests and snacked on Chinese finger foods . Our annual retreat was a great success and the following morning (as one of our fundraisers) we had a car wash at the Princeton Pizza Hut. But , oh the sun burns! At the spring Panhellenic Banquet , we walked away with fo ur of six awards given . Debbie Tickle wo n Most Athletic , Susan Lilly , Most Spirited, Sheri Harvey , Highest Single GPA , and Omicron as the Highest Group GPA. Were we ever proud . The semester closed with our Yellow Rose Dance , a pool party at Tammy McGraw's , and we planned some informal fun meetings throughout the summer. - Debbie McGee

Everyone had a treat time as our sisters and their families ate King Cake (a pastry which is a traditional part of our Louisiana Mardi Gras) and watched as members performed our Rush skit. Phi Chapter rocked and rolled its way to a $500 donation for Pine Mountain with our annual rock a thon. March's chilly winds and cold nights proved less than comfortable , since the event was held in the open mall of the Student Union. But with our new satin baseball jackets bearing "Alpha Taus" on o ur backs and plenty of warm blankets , hot chocolate and the latest rock and roll tunes , Phis turned it into an enjoyable 24 hours. The Southeastern Panhellenic Conference , which was held in Athens , GA ., was attended by Phi's Dawn Foy and Terry Pusch . They returned with a great deal of helpful information and program ideas for us . Phi Chapter really showed its "strength" when we held our first Mr. SLU Bodybuilding Contest. The contest added $1 ,000 to our housing fund and from the look of the sell-out crowd , it will contribute even more next year. The packed house , hot lights and well-muscled bodies were stimulating as audience members clapped and yelled for their fa vorite muscle bound guy . Thanks to Rebecca Hymel and her committee , Phi Chapter may soon be the owner of the world's only sorority house literally built with "muscle ." With the warmer weather came SLU's annual Greek Week . Phi Chapter came away a winner in the swim meet and Almost Anything Goes , finished second in the track meet and was third in Songfest.

Then the moment everyone had waited for - who was to be Phi Chapter's new Sweetheart and Beau? Former Sweetheart Mary Planchet revealed Jeannine Gettys as our new "Sweety" and the Beau's Dance gave us last year's Beau Dennis Emboulas as our Beau for this year also (why let a good thing go?) . With the end of the formal and the closing of the school year , Phi bids a fond farewell to our graduating seniors : Jo Marie Tillery , Lynn Theobold , Lynda Gilardi , Karen Dubuisson and Jennifer Atkins . Convention was on the top of nearly every AETs summer list as eight members of Phi Chapter attended . We hope everyone came away from convention with an everlasting love for Alpha Sigma Tau and everything it stands for. - Malia Witte

The combination of all these activities helped us to win the School and Community Service Award from the Panhellenic Council. We initiated a new scholarship program which has helped raise our GPA . Gail Fowler gave us helpful hints on scholarship, rush and membership wh~n she visited us for a weekend. Mrs . Kathy Baber , chapter consultant , had a weekend retreat at her house where we discussed informal ru sh and upcoming events. Along with work , the Zeta Taus had fun . The Yellow Rose Formal was held in Richmond , and many attended . Everyone enjoyed the dance . We had two retreats this semester , one at our chapter consultant's house , and one on a sister's farm . We all had a lot of fun at both . We look forward to celebrating Zeta Taus' 50th anniversary at Longwood College on May 18 , 1985. As the year came to a close , the sisters of Zeta Tau looked forward to our week at Nags Head , N.C ., summer vacation , and being reunited in August. - Laura-Jean Loeffler

The Alpha Lambda chapter has had a busy and exciting 1983-84 and is looking forward to the same for 1984-85. We began the fall quarter with a successful formal rush . We now have eight new , fantastic sisters : Missy Adams , Beth Ann Blankenship , Debbie Candelori , Margy Dolan , Allison Hartman , Mary Haycox , Anne Nelson and Kim Shotwell . We had several fundraisers this year. During the fall , we had a plant sale , pumpkin sale and our most profitable fundraiser , the Halloween Dance . We also sold donuts and worked at DJR , the company that prints various items for Greeks and other organizations . Founder's Day was extra special. We had our first banquet in its honor , which included dancing . Everyone had a great time and we are planning to have a ban quet next year .

bank , donating items to the Women's Resource Center , volunteering at the group home for mentally retarded , donating to the blood bank and participating in MDA Superdance. This year we sponsored The Bowl for Kids with Sigma Phi Epsilon to raise money for the Big Brother , Big Sister program . There was much involvement by the campus and community, and it turned out to be a huge success . In January , elections were held for new officers. We congratulate the new officers and thank the old officers for all their hard work and dedication to AET . Along with February came our annual Sweethearts Banquet that honors our new sisters. Cathi Miller was bestowed the title of Queen , and Beth Ann Blankenship was Princess . The most exciting thing that happened was receiving a chapter house . It is

owned by the university , and we were chosen among several other sororities and fraternities on campus to receive the house, based on the application we submitted . Seven sisters live in the house , on a point system . We are definitely having a good time fixing up the house and furnishing it. We show it off at every possible opportunity . We had an open house during homecoming weekend , and there was a recent open house for the university . Spring caught us with ten hard working pledges: Cathy Bonner , Rita Bradford , Grace Crowson , Elizabeth Hodnett , Mary Ann Hodnett, Angela Prestipino , Becky Sink , Alex Wilson , Heidi Walsh and Michelle Vandenhavel.

Alpha Mu

Arkansas at Monticello The spring semester for the Alpha Mus began with a hectic registration and then we began working on informal rush . It began with the AMs hitting the residence halls with a week of one-on -one rushing . With the help of the " Ring-Mama Ring" skit , we picked up two great pledges : Kellye Coulter and Sandi Loveless . Rush helps to get the Alpha Taus known on campus ; dances help to get the AST name recognized ; but our " Ugliest Man on Campus" really brings our name to everyone's lips . This year seven "gentlemen " competed for the coveted award , but the title went to "Patricia McMoose ," sponsored by the Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority , beating out contestants such as "lma Jerk" and "Betty Third Floor Bankston ." The evening's talent varied from an aerobics routine to an erotic dance . The 1984 Miss UAM happens to be our own Claudette Grider . We not only sponsored Claudette , but also Jan James . Both Taus did a great job . April was full of exciting things for individuals to participate in , but Greek Week gave all sisters a chance to work together. Greek Week activities began with a volleyball tournament , gaining us a second place . After the tournament ended , the campus was overrun by the Dealers in a concert sponsored by the Panhellenic and Interfraternity council and the Student Activities Board . During the dance, Jan James wa announced a the Female Greek of the Year . lpha Mu won the Tug-of-War conte t for th second year in a row . W al o comp t d

Mansfield State Starting off the semester right was an original rush party . It was a "Love Boat" theme with three of the sisters' rooms as displays and the lounge as the final display , where a slide show was shown. We used sailboats with the slogan "Come Cruise the Seas with AST" as invitations to the women on campus. As a result we have 14 new sisters: Annie Ball , Ellen Begley , Joli Behr , Chris Conning , Grace Corbe , Leianne Earls , Patty Falvey , Gwen Gerberich , Jackie Kinney , Paula McGinney , Laura Martin , Maureen O'Neil , Lori Smith and Dolores Stafford .

Our spring Yellow Rose Formal was held March 31 at the Elmira (NY) Holiday Inn . A wonderful time was shared by all . Laurie Beach was honored as Top Tau and Sister of the Year. Greek Week followed . The events lasted four days and the highlight of the week was the all -Greek banquet with awards pre sented . We were also busy with sales , which included bagel sales and raffle drawings . We would like to wish all our graduating sisters much luck and success : Laurie Beach , Marianne Collins , Amy Hollick , Andrea Nicotera , Annette Tacconelli and Maria Weber. -Joanie Cole

our Yellow Rose Formal, which once again, turned out to be a splendid event. After dinner , we announced Joyce Kokoski as our Top Tau for the year. Sigma Chi had us chasing their broth ers for their hats during Derby Days . Alpha Omicrons were not neglecting our studies, however ; we had 24 women named to the 3 .0 Club , an acknowledgment that we established last semester to encourage better academic averages . Besides scholastic achievement , one of our continual goals is to serve Clarion better and to be more active in community affairs. With the Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers , we hosted an afternoon of Dis~ ney and Winnie the Pooh movies for more than 100 local children . Popcorn was everywhere, and little ones were screaming at all decibels , but our elementary education majors saved the day . It certainly was a fun experience for us! A special honor for all Greeks at CUP came when the Panhellenic and Interfraternity councils were presented the first ever Mayor's Award for outstanding work toward creating better community awareness and appreciation of sororities and fraternities. We ended the semester with yet another brilliant showing in Greek Week . We were not about to let our six-year

Alpha Sigma

Northeast Missouri The spring semester at Northeast Missouri State University was very productive for Alpha Sigma chapter. After returning from Christmas break , spring rush parties were held . The themes for these parties were "AST or Bust," "Mount Tauhoe" and "Generic Party ." Following the successful rush season , we took the largest pledge class on campus. Early in the semester , we adopted an honorary anchorman- Tommy Black . Tommy , 14, has muscular dystrophy . He lives in the Woodhaven Residential Home in Columbia , MO . Tommy has visited our chapter , and we have held various fund raising events to help provide for his needs . In late March , we held our Yellow Rose Formal. The theme for the evening was "All Night Long ." Many alumnae ventured to Kirksville to attend the informal and formal parties. Other social activities for the semester included several mixers with fraternities . The first mixer was with the men of Pi

semester with a good note . We visited the Cambridge Springs Nursing Home and participated in a delightful afternoon of being entertained by our hosts . Our rush programs were the "Dauid Letterman Show " which featured Boy George and The Playmate Party , complete with a visit by the girls from Edinboro Grade School (us). Summer plans included sending four delegates and our chapter advisor , Ms. Debbie Carter , to the convention and summer rush workshops . - Beth Grieshaber A cheerleader, gangster and rodeo rider were some of the personalities assumed by some

The fall semester got off to a bright start with Carnival '83 , Something Brewing in Big City , starring the sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau and the brothers of Al pha Phi Delta. It was an entertaining show for all . The rush program was highlighted by a South of the Border party featuring the favorite food of the sisters-nachos and cheese-and attracted seven pledges. One of our social service projects was a 52-hour dance marathon for muscular dystrophy in which five sisters participated-the most of any other organization . We welcomed our new sisters by celebrating the end of pledging and having a mixer with Sigma Nu fraternity at Carnegie Mellon University . The annual Christmas Dance was held at 2002 Club , which proved to be a perfect ending of the fall semester . Congratulations to our outgoing officers who did a super job organizing and strengthing the ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau ; making it known that we are number one : Agnes Pagac, president ; Jeanne Lazzaro , vice-president; Patty Gallagher , secretary ; Ricka Barboti , treasurer; Brenda Stinnett , rush chair; Lisa VanCheri , pledge director ; Karen Colo mbo , panhellenic representative and Regina Cutrone , housing . -Agnes Pagae

arship pageant. Siriwan McCallister and Judy Cuffaro were selected finalists to the annual pageant. We are all very proud of our sisters and gave them our full support during an evening of fine entertainment. "Rushing" around the beginning of this semester, gave us the opportunity to gain nine great pledges who became sisters in April. We had Spy Rush and, our favorite , Anchors Away Rush parties which got all of the rushees quite excited about Greek life . At the Anchors Away Rush we were fortunate enough to entertain one of our founding sisters . Suzi Atkinson joined us for the evening and took note of the good changes in AST since 1971 . This year's social committee, headed by Jane Huddle , decided to have an all sorority get together , inviting each sorority on campus to a Friday afternoon "bash ." It was a great time and gave us a chance to meet other sorority sisters on an informal basis. We all hope it can become an annual tradition . This year ended with our annual Yellow Rose Formal. Everyone had an en joyable and memorable evening , especially Robin Reed , recipient of the Top Tau Award and Patti Keeney , recipient of the Lisa Ziegler Memorial Award. Both sisters are fine tributes of the ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau . As the semester comes to a close , we regret the departure of 20 sisters who will be graduating or transferring . We wish them the best of luck; we love them ; and will miss them! . -Judy Cuffaro

Even two feet of snow didn't stop the sisters! We joined forces with all other Greeks on campus for a Blood Drive in February. In May , our social service project included going through the attic for un used clothes to give to the needy . The Beta Taus made a sizeable donation .

Awards went to Kathy McDonagh for Sisterhood, Scholarship, and Most Active Out, Karen Hayes for Most Active In , Robin Grealy for Leaper, Paula Boisvert for Most Athletic, Mary Favara for Best Pledge , and Dana Foskey for Top Tau . The sisters were active in Intramural Volleyball throughout the spring. They also participated in Spring Carnival and Greek Day , which included a chariot race with our own home-built chariot. These events brought out the true spirit of the Beta Taus . On April 28th , the sisters enjoyed the Yellow Rose Semiformal in Nashua , N. H . All sisters received an emerald and gold friendship pin as a sign of our special closeness . Several sisters traveled to the National Convention in Washington, D.C.

ter, complete with fund raisers , rush and social service activities . Fund raising activities kicked off the semester , with Beta Thetas annual Las Vegas night scoring another "jackpot." Participants gambled with fake money , trying their luck at poker , blackjack , craps and high / low . The highlight of the evening was the ladies in black tuxedo tails and hats who danced and high kicked to "Caberet;" no Beta Theta Las Vegas night would have been complete without "Las Vegas" dancers . At the evening's close , donated prizes were auctioned off as participants bought prizes with the money they had won . The bonds of sisterhood were strengthened at a mini-retreat held at Guadalupe State Park . The event was successfully planned and organized by Sorority Growth and Development Chair Maryann Knopik . It was a time for sharing and voicing new insights on sisterhood . The retreat ended with a beautiful Polish custom: each sister made a wish for each other as bread was consumed. Two very successful rush parties ultimately led to one of the largest pledge classes Beta Theta has ever had. With the first rush , Anchors Away , rushees were given anchor nametags and freely mingled with the members in the netdecorated hall . Closed rush theme was "Fiesta Forever ," with San Antonio as the "fiesta" city. Required attire : bright , multi-colored Mexican dresses . As a result of rush activities , 35 terrific young ladies decided to pledge Alpha Sigma Tau. Greek Week at St. Mary's University demonstrated another side of the Beta Theta chapter. Although tremendous athletic ability was exhibited , Beta Theta demonstrated exceptional ability in the food and drink consuming activities . In honor of the graduating seniors , the

annual Yellow Rose Spring Banquet was held . The yellow rose was passed from old officers to new officers , and outstanding committee members were an nounced . Top Tau pledges Jennifer Utterback and Blanche Williams were also announced . Who said Friday 13th was supposed to be unlucky? National Treasurer Susan Rogers visited Beta Theta chapter and participated in our active Friday April 13th weekend . Also , 35 pledges became 35 new members on Friday April 13th . Our last activity of the year was an Easter Egg Hunt , organized by Social Service Chair Cathy Corson , and held at Delta Sigma Phi 's fraternity house .

Beta Iota

Millersville Fall 1983 began a successful and rewarding year for the Beta Iota chapter . The rush committee , chaired by Deb Hartman , planted the seeds during the rushing season . After a successful reap of prospectives , Mel Handly , pledgemaster , transformed our harvest of pledges ; Sue Ingram , Cheryl Heartier , Beth Lynch , Antoin ette Natale , ancy Schaeffer, Kaky Tho mpson and Michelle Zimmermar:t into fine sisters . A major feature of o ur fall semester was Homecoming . Thanks to the alum nae , the festivities were a success . The remainder of the semester was filled with various fund raisers such as pretzel , can-

died apple , popcorn and bagel sales . lntramurals, Christmas carolling and a Christmas semiformal concluded the fall semester. After a refreshing Christmas break , the rush committee set out again on its quest. The spring semester seemed discouraging at first with only one pledge , but proved to be successful in many othe r ways . With Pledgemaster Leslie Zubia , our single , strong-willed pledge Rosemary, became a sister . A major event of the spring semester is o ur annual dance marathon which benefits the Lancaster Association for Retarded Citizens. Teamed with fraterni ty Kappa Beta , our proceeds to LARC exceeded $1 ,000 . Various fund raisers this semester included pretzel and M & M sales. Under "sorority growth and development" the Easter spirit was initiated while making Easter baskets for the children's ward of a local hospital . A terrific formal, staged by Lena Stoltfus and her committee , brought this school year to a close . - Beth Thomas

professional wrestling , shows and concerts, including Jimmy Buffet , KC and the Sunshine Band and Kool and the Gang . We worked at the Run for Life and Special Olympics , and we have truly enjoyed our adopted family during Christmas , Easter and roller skating adventures . We participated and received second place in Derby Days , which is like a small olympics of crazy , but fun , events between the organizations on campus. We also received third place in a campus-wide phonathon . Publicity has been at its best this year , with these successes and our one-to-one continuous rushing . We are looking forward to a great fall rush after holding two summer workshops and attendance at the National Convention.

Beta Nu

Bloomsburg State The Beta Nu chapter has been very busy this past year. We rushed , pledged and initiated two fantastic pledge classes . This program was very successful as we welcomed 21 new sisters . Some of our pledging activities included skit night , scavenger hunt , serenade and muc h more. We also continued some traditions by having a "switch-the pledges" day with one of our local fraternities , and by playing football with another. (Some of us are still nursing bruises .) We also participated in the highly competitive Greek Week activities in cluding torch run , tug -of-war , games night , olympic day and chariot race . However , this year , the highlight of Greek Week for us was the Sorority Greek Sing . For the first time ever, we won second place! We sang songs by the Everly Brothers and danced our hearts out doing the jitterbug and hand jive among others.

Salisbury State Beta Mu has been exceptionally busy this spring . Our new officers are Shelley Bates , president ; Debbie Bell , vice president; Pam Emory, recording secretary ; Karen Stu tts , treasurer ; Cathy Cannon , rush chair . Beta Mu has been working to improve o ur chapter as a whole . We took to the water for a weekend retreat with Gail Fowler and Lyn n S ullivan . We learned many new songs and devised rush ideas , chapter goals and pledging ideas . It was a beautiful weekend , one which we will treasure forever . Upon returning , we worked at WYCC as us hers and concession workers for

The 1983 je/lo wrestling champions (from left) are Susan Kantor , Julie Foust and Barb Letsch from Bloomsburg .

We also participated in the town's annual Renaissance Jamboree . By far, the most important event is the tag team jello wrestling competition , and with one of the AST teams reigning as the 1983 champions , we were not to be out done this year by having nine sisters wrestle . After an afternoon of slips , slides, laughs , take downs and pins , the winning team was decided and one of our sisters , Leslie Gow , was a key member. This year , our fund raiser was very creative and a lot of fun to do ; we sold Men of B . U. calendars! Headed by Fundraising Chair Molly Lamoreaux , our calendar committee searched for and photographed many of the men on campus . It was tough to do , but we were fi nally able to narrow the pictures down to the 12 finalists who were printed in the calendars . The guys enjoyed doing it as much as we did! The Un iversity hosted the Special Olympics and we were part of the volun teer corps . We also donated when the Red Cross Bloodmobile came to town . We had a secret ceremony in early April for our advisor , Mary Ann Bredbenner Maul. An alumna of this chapter , she and her husband are expecting their first child . After our annual Ye llow Rose Formal , we closed o ut the semester with a bang by having our first-ever picnic . We had a great time eating hamburgers and hot dogs and playing all of the games and sports that were available . - Carol Liess

Beta Xi

Michigan Tech Fall term of 1983 brought in ten pledges to keep the sisters of Beta Xi chapter busy! The first official rush began with a "Pizza Rush ." The second rush filled the AST house with laughter with "Joke Rush ." At the last rush we had hot cider and donuts . Outside of rushing , actives and pledges participated in a pancake breakfast fund raiser for D-1-A-L Help , the philan thropy of CPC . Following the breakfast , CPC members held a car wash to fund the upcoming Formal Rush . A few other social service projects included buying a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy family and sending an assortment of articles to the Salvation Army . The week of October 14 rang in Homecoming . Michigan Tech has a unique celebration . The annual theme is based on " hobos" complete with competitions, a parade and partie ! Paula Stefanelli and Tracy mall were Hom coming Queen candida! . At the end of fall t rm , th fir t f th

THE AN H R

Kappa pledge class was ribboned and pinned. Besides starting winter term Nove mber 28 , the sisters of Beta Xi participated in the week of Formal Rush . Five Kappa class members were added fo llowing the "Welcome to the Tau Wau " the me. On December 5 , with the new pledges pinned , Beta Xi membership climbed to 54 , only one person short of MTU's ceiling. The annual Winter Carnival at Michigan Tech was a big success for the AST sisters as they achieved an overall first place among their competitors. The sisters placed first in various sport events, skits and snow-building with the ir statue titles Chariots of the Good-Ices , within the main theme of Legends and Myths in Snowy Drifts . Jacqui Burns and Tina Taylor were finalists in the Winter Carnival Queen Competition . Spring term arrived with a big purchase for the Beta Xi chapter as they proudly bought a very BIG house! The new ho use has a lot of living area and is located within "minutes" of campus . It has a nice yard that overlooks Portage Canal . . . a beautiful setting! Greek Week was on April 23 . The sisters took first place in the Frisbee Toss , despite the falling snow! Finally , the school year could be seen coming to an end as the Yellow Rose Formal was held at the Main Street Inn . The main "plans" of the summer are painting , remodeling and furnishing our new house! -Betsy L. Julin

Beta Rho

Arkansas Tech The Beta Rho Chapter won the Sisterhood Award and the Sportsmanship Award in the Spring 1984 Greek Week Activities. The awards were received from Cindy Bennett , Panhellenic president and AST vice-president, at the Greek Week awards ceremony . The Sisterhood Award was based on sisters' interactions with each another as well as with those Greeks outside the sorority during the week . This award was voted on by the Greek Week committee made up of one member from each of the five sororities at Arkansas Tech. The Sportsmanship Award was given to the group that best displayed good conduct while competing against other sororities in the different events during Greek Week . This year , the referees who called the softball , basketball , foot ball and volleyball games rated the sororities on their good conduct, interrelationship with each other and other sorority members , and sportsmanship while playing .

THE ANCHOR

Beta Rho also did several social service projects and raised money for Pine Mountain and SCAN (Suspected Child Abuse and Neglect) , our local philan throphy . We washed windows of area businesses and spent one Sunday painting the inside of a new pet departme nt store . - Anita We wers

Beta Phi

Pennsylvania at California Beta Phi Ru s h Director Roxa nn e Oliveiri lead the members in a very successful party theme, an "AST Fashion Show ,'' that resulted in ten fantastic pledges. Under the very capable hand of Pledge Directo r Karen Dancisin they had no problem finishing their pledge re quirements . Our pledges were : Denise Caputo , Tina Cronin , Cathy Hardy , Alicia Hayden , Lisa Kolonosky , Lisa Paris , Trisha Prokasky, Deanna Shirey , Mi chele Weaver and Margie Williams. Our semester was also marked by the elections of new officers for the spring and fall of 1984; President , Jennifer Watkins ; Vice President , Rebecca Hook; Treasurer , Kim Tiberio ; Secretary , Sue Lewandowski ; Housing Officer , Kim Kimme l; Rush Chair , Roxanne Olivieri ; Pledge Trainer , Karen Dancisin ; and Panhel Representative , Kelly Corbett . This spring has been a very active one for the Beta Phis. Winning Greek Week for the second consecutive year was the highlight of events . There were several special projects on the agenda including participation in a local clean-up , a food drive for the unemployed in the area, and a campus-wide fund drive where more than $1 ,000 was raised to benefit a disabled student . Perhaps o ne of the most satisfying projects was a walk a thon to benefit one of our sisters , Lisa Bongiorni , to whom we send our love and are anxious to see back .

Our sorority growth and development program included a seminar on rape prevention, and our social service project was an Easter parade fo r the children in the area, complete with a visit from the Easter Bunny! The success of this project is attributed to Rozie Ren ze , our social service chair . The Beta Phis looked forward to their first National Convention with much excitement . We are sure to bring back many fresh ideas that can be incorporated into o ur new chapter, along with many lasting memories . A summer workshop for the Fall rush will hopefully see us again welcome the largest pledge class on campus for the fifth semester in a row . We bid far ewell to o ur ten graduating seniors, many of whom are founders of the Beta Phi chapter, and wish you all the luck in the world . - Michele Shearer

Beta Psi

St. Louis U. This spring semester a group of 30 young women at St. Louis University (formerly Theta Phi Theta Sorority) became the Be ta Psi colony of Alpha Sigma Tau. We were ribbon pledged on Saturday , January 21 , and pin pledged on January 22 . It was a very exciting weekend and carried over to the begin ning of spring rush at St. Louis University . We introduced ourselves to the campus as the new national sorority during the two -and-a -half weeks of rush . The Beta Psi colony pledged eight new pledges and together we worked at bringing our o ld traditions into the many new traditions of Alpha Sigma Tau . There were fundraising projects, such as selling candy bars , stuffing envelopes and working at university phoneathons . Continued on page 32

Alumnae supplied the refreshments and favors allowing the girls to concentrate on meeting and taking two large pledge classes . In Novem ber , alumnae hosted a Founder's Day dinner on the Edinboro campus with a guest speaker from the Erie Rape Crisis Center. The "Birthday Party" was fun as well as informative .

New Orleans alumnae began the year with a group trip to the Louisiana Superdome to see a Tulane University football game. The annual social service project was making fudge to send to the leper patients at the hospital in Carville ,Lo uisiana . December found me mbers e njoying the annual Christmas party at the home of Anita Gradwohl. After a tasty buffet, the gift item auction provided the fun . Each member had brought o ne o r more gifts to be auctioned by Anita's husband , Mike . Most of the gifts were handmade . The bidding went fast and furious at times as members were eager fo r a chance to do some last minute Christmas shopping and increase the chapter's treasury at the same time. Spring t ook the group to th e Gradwohl's new home for a Lo uisiana Crawfish Boil. Several luncheons and swi m parties made the long , hot summer months fun . Everyone always e njoys sharing plans and news of trips and summer activities before fall brings a more set routin e. - Marilyn Tee!

President Debbie Alexander moved to Win ston -Salem and was re placed by Carole Keily . A White Elephant Sale at the home of Betty Sue Glaeser , in March , not only added $126 to the treasury but also was loads of fun! Mary Early and Martha Jones were hostesses for the April meeting . A speake r from the Ronald McDonald Ho use showed slides and discussed the purpose of the ever-growing number of ho uses of this kind . Parents of children can be housed during the time the children have to be in that given area for therapy and treatme nt.

Philadelphia explores places and things Fall season for Philadelphia Alumnae got underway with lunch at an old favorite restaurant , Train ers in Quakertown . Despite the hearty fare of Trainer's menu , the Alpha Taus were able to do justice to Mrs . Potser's delicious peach cheesecake with Carolyn Potser's hospitality . They had a good opportunity to catch up on news of the summer and of their families. Founder's Day was a delicious lunch in the elegant setting of Overbrook Country Club . The beautiful surroundings gave their own touch of dignity and impressiveness to the Candlelighting Service and to the installation of officers. After the ceremonies there was a fine entertainment presented by Philadelphia's inveterate traâ&#x20AC;˘;eler , Helen Lombardi. This time Helen took us to ancient Egypt . She also showed mode rn Egypt in the colorful bazaar and in today's streets . Her lively narrative gave information as well as the flavor of Egyptian life . At Peg Brown 's Christmas luncheon , members enjoyed a special bonus. Eight deer pranced through Peggy's garden then galloped into the woods. Altho ugh there was no snow and no sign of Santa , this unexpected vignette seemed a good omen for Christmas Eve . In March , alumnae had a demonstration of wok cookery prepared by Betty Allison's son and daughter-in-law . After lunch , a slide show by Helen Lombardi took us to Africa , a colorful and exciting safari. April's meeting was a luncheon at Wil liamsons and a tour of several Fairmount Park houses . The tour guide explained the intricacies of late eighteenth and nineteenth century architecture and interior decoration . Her narration was spiced with personalities and anecdotes that made the old houses come alive. An end of season event was the May luncheo n at the ever popular Menden hall Restaurant and then a visit to the Hill and Dale Muse um in Delaware . - Betty Allison

Youngstown has fun times Alumnae will be donating toys to Tods Baby and Children's Hospital to ring joy to each and every child in the hospital. Chi Chi 's Restaurant was the fun social outing for all the sisters . Youngstown purchased tickets for local collegiate women to aid in going to convention . Th ere was much enthusiasm in the hearts of the sisters as they looked for ward to that time . Next year members hope to sponsor a Special Olympic child or get involved in the adopt a grandparent program . Either of these social service projects will benefit members as well as the surrounding area . -Wendy Del Boccio

Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor raises funds in summer At the Christmas gathering , YpsilantiAnn Arbor welcomed Marcie Lilly to the sisterhood . She was living in Ohio , but her husband was transferred to Michigan . The chapter never plans a meeting for January because of unpredictable Michigan weather , but members were fooled by getting hit with heavy snow in

February instead . Those who made the meeting enjoyed chatting and playing table games. April's meeting was at a local restau rant to celebrate the chapter's anniversary . In May , the Mother's Day luncheon was held . This is always a special event because members get together as sisters and share this feeling with their mothers . Many sisters come to this event whq are unable to attend regular monthly meetings . The summer garage sale was a fund raiser. This has worked well and helps everyone clean out their unwanted items . - Carlotta Salemi

Collegians Continued from page 25 A social service project , which will be continued throughout summers and upcoming semesters , involves an everchanging group of six or seven sisters spending Sunday afternoons with children at a local home for the abused or homeless . As one of the social projects , the sisters held a spring formal April 14 . And of course , the weekly meetings served as a time to learn pledge lessons and come together as a group of sisters sharing common goals and lots of fun . The semester climaxed when all 30 sisters took the national exam and after finding out that everyone passed , the plans went ahead for the weekend of activities involved with initiation. After initiation a luncheon was held at the new chapter's suite in one of the university dorms . Later , Saturday evening , a ban quet was held to celebrate the semester's work being completed. o it is with enthuiasm that the new chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau wishes to thank everyone for making their tran ilion to a national orority as much fun and meaningful a it was . ext fall we will head the Panh 1lenic Council at LU . which will require a lot of hard work but will b r b neficial to our chapter . - Mar Ell n Law! r

Debi Carter Huber works with one of he r students .

Debi Carter Huber It's hard to say who's more enthusiastic about school- Debi Carter Huber or her kindergarten students . Huber, who teaches at Robious Elementary in Virginia's Chesterfield County , does all of that and more . That's why she has been chosen the Longwood Alumni Teacher of the Year. Both her sisters and her brother are also Longwood graduates and all three have taught in the Chesterfield school system . Huber just completed her eighth year as a teacher . Parents and fellow teachers cite her creativity , sensitivity to her students and love of learning. Wrote one parent, "Children literally bloom during the year they spend with her!" She tries to create a "happy environment" and believes that hands-on experience and storytelling are vital to learning. For example , every other week she dresses as an elderly woman and acts out a skit. Each performance has an educational theme. Under the guise of a forgetful grandmother, she tests the children's knowledge of colors , letters, numbers , and so forth . Huber was graduated with honors and received a masters degree in early childhood education from Virginia Commonwealth University earning a 4 .0 GPA. This summer she completed certification requirements in Administration at the University of Richmond . . . Congratulations, Debi!

Julie Dayton Julie Dayton has empathy for the 1980 Olympic team members-after making the U.S . lacrosse team to participate in one of three showcase sports (the others were tennis and baseball) , the sponsor backed out five days before the team was to leave for the Summer Games in Los Angeles . "The '84 Summer Olympics were a chance to get lacrosse recognized as an Olympic sport and to further women's lacrosse ," Dayton states . Her home state of Delaware honored Julie for making the team . She has been a member of the national team since her junior year at Longwood in 1980 . Her goal was to make the team five times and she has done that having been named this past June for the fifth time and will participate on the 1985 team . Members of the 1985 team begin practicing in January every weekend through March to prepare for exhibition matches later in 1985 . In 1982 the U.S . team won the World cup Championship and the 1986 games will be in the United States . Dayton now plays for the Virginia Lacrosse Club and is a coach at St. Catherine in Richmond , VA ., for lacrosse and field hockey (another of her favorite sports) . "I've played in international games that have been in the United States , but I wanted to play in matches for the U.S . at the Olympics ," she said . "Not participating closed a lot of doors . Women 's lacrosse was hurt in general and it will be several years down the road before that kind of opportunity arises again ." Dayton's future goals are to get her masters and teach and coach physical education at a Division II or III college level. Two of her high school students made the "Lacrosse All American" team under her tutelage . She keeps in touch with the Longwood chapter . 'I enjoyed being in a sorority-especially Alpha S igma Tau-because it taught me a lot about how to deal with people and gave me the chance to share common interests and goals ." Good luck in '85 , Julie!

Congratulations to the National Interfraternity Conference . . . The National Interfraternity Conference celebrates its 75th Anniversary this year. NIC is the federation of men's general college fraternities and is an association representing the officers and executives of the general fraternities who are members of the Conference . NIC planned several events to celebrate their special year. The first , in Washington , D.C . , was the presentation of the Conference Gold Medal to U.S . President Ronald Reagan , a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity. Second , NIC celebrated the founding of the Conference at the exact location of its origin, the University Club of New York City . Third , NIC planned a special Indiana celebration spotlighting the headquarters location of the Conference in Indianapolis at the official residence of Governor Robert Orr. Indiana and Indianapolis is the headquarters for 23 fraternal groups .

Their final anniversary event will be a gala 75th Anni versary festivity at their annual meeting of the Conference in December. Alpha Sigma Tau extends its congratulations to NIC for their many accomplishments through the years .

And, finally . . . The Anchor has received a face lift! The new cover design is more than just a change in the graphic design . . . it re flects a sorority that is on the move , forward-thinking , and active . I hope you like it , too! On page 33 is a new feature of the Anchor . . . Spotlight on alumnae . In this feature we hope to focus on alum nae who have made o utstanding contributions in their professional careers , have an interesting hobby , or are active in their communities . If you know of a sister who should receive special recognition, send the information and we'll try to carry it in a future issue .
