As part of the Cultural Heritage Fund initiative, we are putting together an on-line history of our chapters. If you have any historical information, articles, pictures, documents and stories from your chapter, we want to see it! Please reach out to the cultural heritage committee at this link.
Are we missing pieces of your chapter history? Is your chapter missing completely? Please send us:
- Any photos from your undergrad days, alumni reunions. We want the entire history of every chapter including Alumni years!
- Any physical memorabilia (or pictures of memorabilia) like mugs, glasses, jackets, anything that is about your chapter.
- Do you have interesting stories/anecdotes? Send them, we'll format them and include them in our history.
- Chapter songs, information about the history from colonization to the current time. Whether the chapter is still active or not, we want to create a complete history of your chapter brothers.
- Events/Reunions/Pamphlets/Brochures/Journals - we want it all! Physical or Digital.
- Are there distinguished/famous brothers from your chapter? Let's acknowledge them. We can profile them here, in the Kleos, or if their contributions are significant they can be considered for our Century Society.
- Want to help build your chapter history? Contact the cultural heritage committee at this link to talk to us, we would be happy to have the help!
