Gents, this letter is from the active chapter Histor, with exciting news about how your support has boosted chapter preparation & morale, and resulted in what looks to be a monumental Fall rush.

 

Thanks and I look forward to seeing you all Thursday.

Alumni Fraters,

It is my pleasure to update you the current progress the chapter is making during this rush season. As you may or may not know, IFC has changed the bidding process of fraternities and we are now allowed to bid new members through the entire rush period. I am very proud to say that Mu Omega has been taking full advantage of this opportunity and we have just recently given out 32 bids with plans to hand out at least another 10-15 by the end of rush to deserving new members. We have a very good chance of having a Fall pledge class above the 30 man mark.

On Sunday, September 8th, the chapter contacted every potential and asked them to meet in President’s Park at exactly 11:37pm. While all the freshman were standing in the park alone, at that exact minute, we had the ENTIRE CHAPTER including some alumni, walk over to the park in all formal wear. There, we personally handed out official bids to each potential. As they recived their bids one by one, many students stopped to watch and even came out of their dorms to witness what was happening. In my opinion, it was one of the most spetacular moments of brotherhood and chapter unity I have ever seen from Mu Omega in my three years as an active. Hopefully this will get you excited for what we have planned for this fall semester.

Having a pledge class of over 30 men is just the tip of the iceberg as far as goals we will reach this school year. New members are allowed to accept their bids on Wednesday, September 18th, so I hope to see you all at the Alumni Annual Business meeting on Thursday September 19th (7pm at Brion’s) so that I can share with you the final results of all our hard work in person. Thank you for your ongoing support, and I look forward to future collaborations between alumni and the active chapter. The amount of help and support we have received already has the entire chapter thanking you all greatly.

YITB,  Christian Price

An Invocation

Posted on by
Over the last 4 years we have truly come together as an alumni chapter, 40+ years in the making. We have rekindled friendships, reunited long lost fraters and channeled a tremendous amount of support towards our active Mu Omega chapter.
The next few weeks are a very exciting time for us, we hope you will plan on attending our Fraternity For Life Ritual this upcoming Sunday, September 8th. This ritual unveils deeper meaning in our Fraternal bond, and serves as the official welcome for new graduates into the alumni association. Older alumni who have not yet experienced this ritual are especially invited to attend, and come to truly understand the meaning of the phrase “Tekes for Life.“
Please email muomegatke@gmail.com if you plan to attend.
Secondly, our annual business meeting is scheduled for 9/19, so mark it on your calendars as this promises to be the big social event of the fall. We will trouble everyone with about 20-30 min of new business, ratify the new board for 2013-2014, and then commence the social portion of the evening.
And finally, a very big personal thank you from me to everyone who has continued to support financially over the years. Sending 4 Fraters to Conclave this year was really a fantastic achievement that we couldn’t have done without you. I hope you will join us at the annual meeting and hear firsthand how your support has made a tremendous difference in the lives of our undergraduate Fraters. If you would like to ensure that your membership is up to date and in good standing, you can show your support with a 2013 Annual Member Endowment here: http://muomegatke.com/?p=444
Venerable Alumni Prytanis, fellow Fraters, I love THE Fraternity.
Hope to see you Sunday!
