The 2015 edition of the Ecce Signum (A Brother's Handbook for Alpha Phi Delta Fraternity) is now out and ready for purchase. This year, three distinct editions are available.

1. The Standard Central Office edition. This is the basic version of the handbook; white cover, white paper saddle stitched. 64pp. Available directly from Central Office for $4.95 each.

2. The Commercial Paperback edition. This is a purple covered softbound edition of the Ecce Signum. It is square bound with cream pages inside. Durable and nice looking! $4.98 each.

3. The Deluxe Hardbound edition. This is a purple hard-covered volume, with quality white paper and square-bound spine. This is very nice looking and very durable; this is the ideal version for a chapter or alumni leader. It is also good for any brother that wants a durable quality version of the Ecce Signum. $14.95 each.

All chapter brothers received a copy of the standard Central Office edition, but might want to consider a hard-covered version or purple bounded paperback version for themselves. These two new editions are beautifully made and make a nice edition to one's fraternal bookshelf.

At the 2015 Annual Meeting of the National Council, held at Rutgers University on February 28, Alpha Phi Delta's entity delegates gathered and accomplished much good for our organization. Among key action:

• The Council chartered our Epsilon Epsilon Chapter at Farmingdale State College, our first new chapter as we begin our second 100 years. It is the 98th chapter in our history, and it was voted to be placed in our New York City East District.
• The Council chartered the Merrimack Valley Alumni Club in northern Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. It is our northern most entity. It is the 44th alumni club to be chartered in our history.
• The Council adopted its 2015-16 budget with no increase in fees.
• The Council accepted Ralph V. Parmegiani, Ryan Gennarelli and Msgr. Gerald Orbanek into Graduate Membership in our Brotherhood.
• The Executive Committee of the Council established a Long Island District (alongside  a redistricted New York City - North and New York City - South District) effective July 1, 2015.
