Recruitment Reports:

The Panhellenic Council is so excited about the success

we had with Formal Recruitment this year. This year

over 80 women came back early from winter break to

participate in this event. Despite the uncooperative

weather, the weekend events started off with a bang, and

after a taxing weekend, over 60 women received bids to

the various organizations.

IFC is also celebrating, as the men were equally success-

ful in their recruitment process as many men came to the

men’s recruitment

events to show their interest in the organi-

zations.

P A G E 2

Pi Kappa Phi focuses on Philanthropy

Anchors away with Delta Gamma The sisters of Delta Gamma are very

excited for all of the upcoming

events planned for the spring semes-

ter. The sisters started the semester

with the highest cumulative grade

point

average

among the

sororities

on cam-

pus.

Bid Day

was also a

great suc-

cess with

the addi-

tion of fifteen new members to Delta

Gamma. The sisters would like to

extend congratulations to all the

sororities and fraternities on picking

up great new members.

The sisters of Delta Gamma have

continued the relationship with Sum-

merville Nursing Home. The sisters

made valentine cards that were

distributed at the nursing home.

Delta Gamma will also be participat-

ing in Karaoke at the nursing home.

The nursing home community is

looking forward to the sisters re-

turning for such events. There are

various other service opportunities

that are in the planning process.

The Gamma Pi chapter had a very

successful sisterhood retreat a few

weeks ago. Additionally, the sisters

of Delta Gamma also welcomed the

DG chapter from Virginia Tech to

come celebrate founder’s day at

Hotel Roanoke. The Sisters of Delta

Gamma continue to stay active in the

Greek and college community. Once

again Delta Gamma would like to

extend congratulations to all sorori-

ties and fraternities for having suc-

cessful semesters!

Journey of Hope, a bike ride

from San Francisco to Wash-

ington D.C. to raise money and

awareness for Push America.

The Journey of Hope will take

almost all summer with stops in

different cities to interact with

people that have disabilities,

making the ride even more

rewarding. Also a few brothers

travelled to D.C. to meet

with congressmen about

Greek Life. Additionally, we

had a few successful Alumni

Weekend events, raised

more funds for Push, and plan

to finish out the semester

well.

Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity is

continuing to uphold its ideals

and do well across campus,

especially with the culmina-

tion of winning all the soror-

ity weeks. During the Greek

Life Awards Banquet, we had

a great showing, winning five

awards. Within the last

month we have raised thirty-

three hundred dollars for our

national philanthropy, Push

America, which helps people

with disabilities. This extra

three thousand dollars

secures our position as

number three in the

fund-raising ranking for

national fraternity out of all

our chapters. One of our

brothers, Michael Bankert, is

currently training for the

New projects for Sigma Chi on Elizabeth Campus

P A G E 3

A new chapter house, offered up by the college,

means a hopeful chance for the fraternity’s

newest members to live in the extravagant “Sig

House” in the upcoming years. Another notable

activity of Tau chapter includes the trip to

Myrtle Beach for the annual Sweetheart

Weekend, where Christopher Boylan was

granted the worthy role of President. Also,

brother Ian Griffin did commendable work at

the Carolina cup and should be recognized.

Nathaniel Castellano as president. As

students began to return to campus, the

excitement of formal rush was soon

found amongst the brothers. The broth-

ers were excited to see who would

come out to rush as Phi Chapter pre-

pared to pick up the Phi pledge

class. Phi chapter will be looking to

maintain a positive image with the sur-

rounding Salem community by continuing

With the start of 2011 ringing in a

New Year, the brothers of Pi Kappa

Alpha Phi Chapter were eager to

make their return back to Roanoke’s

Campus. Prior to the start of

Christmas break, Phi Chapter installed

their new executive cabinet. Phi

chapter’s new executive cabinet

features a whole host of different

personalities and ages, lead by

an incident free year (largely accredited

to the efforts of Patrick Dibert) and by

giving back to the community through

different community service and fundrais-

ing events. Before the end of the semes-

ter, brothers are expecting to complete

community service events with both

Habitat for Humanity and Salem Ambas-

sadors. On March 16th in the Colket

Center’s atrium, Pi Kappa Alpha brought

back our fundraiser Date-A-Pike. Broth-

ers this semester will continue to strive

for a high level of academic excellence, an

effort fostered by many of our own

brothers and their unique academic

achievement. Overall we are pushing

harder than ever to maintain our image

as scholars, leaders, athletes, and gentle-

men on and off campus; we look forward

to another challenging and prosperous

semester.

Phi Mu, Chapter of the Year! The Gamma Eta chapter of Phi Mu

Fraternity has had a very busy Spring

semester! We started off the semester

on the right foot, picking up a fantastic

pledge class of fifteen new mem-

bers. Congratulations to all the other

fraternities and sororities on a very

successful formal recruitment 2011!

Everyone got great new member

classes! In February, Phi Mu held our

annual “Mr. Legs Week” to support

Children’s Miracle Network Hospi-

tals. Throughout the week, all four

fraternities competed in various com-

petitions such as penny wars, t-shirt

sales, lip sync and the Mr. Legs Pag-

eant. All of the proceeds were do-

nated to our local CMN Hospital, Caril-

lion Children’s Hospital in Downtown

Roanoke. Gamma Eta chapter also had

a wonderful time participating in Relay

for Life, despite the uncooperative

weather! Finally, On April 3, 2001, Roa-

noke held the annual Greek Awards

Banquet and Gamma Eta chapter was

very proud to take home some very

exciting awards! As a chapter, Phi Mu

received the Panhellenic Intramural

Award, The Outstanding Service Award,

and Chapter of the Year! Molly Beyer

received the New Member Highest

GPA Award, and Caitlin Giles received

the Active Member Highest GPA

Award. The Panhellenic Woman of the

Year Award was given to Abby Bjork,

and The Greek Woman of the Year

was given to Melissa Pazornik, both

members of Gamma Eta. Our faculty

advisor, Dr. Heath Brown, received

the Outstanding Faculty Member

Award. Needless to say, it was a very

exciting and encouraging night for the

chapter! Phi Mu Gamma Eta looks

forward to finishing up a successful

spring semester!

Chi Omega upholds fraternity purposes

The Pi Epsilon Chapter of Chi Omega has been working hard to encourage

each member of our sisterhood to uphold and honor our fraternity's six

purposes- scholarship, personnel, campus activities, career and personal

development, friendship/social relations, and community service. Through

organized study halls, participation in Salem Clean-up Days, intramural

sports and activities, participating in community service outside of the Roa-

noke College community, and high academic standards, we hope to make

an impact both on campus and in our community. We are also happy to

report another successful year of formal recruitment, and despite the diffi-

culties with inclement weather, we picked up seventeen new girls. We are

very excited to welcome them into our sisterhood and know that they will

be great additions to our strong Chapter!

What’s new with Kappa Alpha!?! The spring semester of 2011 has been great to Kappa Al-

pha. We recently initiated seven new brothers, who we are ex-

cited to call Kappa Alphas. We organized a St. Patty’s Day bache-

lor auction at Corned Beef and Co. located in Downtown Roa-

noke. All the proceeds raised went to the Muscular Dystrophy

Association, our national philanthropy. We have been becoming

more active both on campus here at Roanoke College and also

with our national office, with a member of our brotherhood receiv-

ing the position of Province Undergraduate Chairman. We look

forward to the fall semester and the opportunity to improve our-

selves and Beta Rho Chapter.

Delta Sigma Theta Receives

Three Deities of

DiSTinction!!

Delta Sigma Theta, a tri-campus chapter, shared between Roanoke College, Washington and Lee University, and Hollins University received three new sorors (Greek for sisters!) this semester. The three women represent Roanoke College and Hollins University well! Their names? Adriana Saucedo (Roanoke College), Ashley Ellis-Alleyne (Hollins University), and Candace Lewis (Roanoke College).

These amazing young women were ini-tiated into Delta Sigma Theta on April 9, 2011, and were presented on Roanoke’s back quad on April 10, 2011 at 3:13pm. They were greeted by sorors from local chapters of DST, and presented their line (terminology for their new initiate class) via song, chant, and step! Roanoke College welcome these beautiful women to the Greek Community!!
