Back to the Future
The future is the present.
|
The future
is now. The road of tomorrow is being laid and designed
by our acts and words now. As that this is true, some
undergraduate brothers have put in place a plan to pay
the re-chartering fee that the chapter faces each year.
The hope is that in time and some effort through fundraising
that the re-charting fee will be covered and so that the
cost for chapter operations will then drop and the dues
of every semester will drop also. The goal is to make
the dues easier for brothers to pay dues so that we may
grow as a chapter. The fund has had a small seed planted
by a friend of the fraternity, a businessman in Dayton,
Ohio. He liked the thought of the idea and what |
|
we stand
for so he donated $50. It is not that much but when look
upon that a person that was never in a fraternity was
willing to open up his pocket book was amazing to us.
The hope is that with fund raisers such as the planned
golf outing for alumni this spring and other events that
this account that we have started will grow and at some
time will do what it was intended to do. The time that
is hoped for this to be able to work is about 6 years
from now. The thinking is that we should build a base
of money and use the interest to pay the bills. The future
is now, and so we are helping the brothers of the future. |

Alumni Advisor Starts New Incentive |
Alumni brother
Ryan Williams gives back to chapter in new way. He as
taken it upon himself to set up a scholarship for the
undergraduate brothers, but it is a uniquely designed
scholarship. It has some guidelines to it. For a brother
to be eligible for the scholarship he must attended all
meetings, sorority events and all mandatory events. If
a brother does this, his name |
|
will be
written down and put into a hat at the end of the semester.
Ryan Williams will draw a name and that brother will have
his next semester's dues paid by Ryan. When asked about
this sort of scholarship if it was fair, Ryan responded
with that it was giving a helping hand to brothers that
are living up to our ideals. |

FORE!!! |
In the spring
of 2003 we would like to hold a golf outing for you, our
alumni brothers. The plan is as of now to hold the golf
outing in Louisville, KY. Some of the finest courses in
Kentucky are there, that and many of you our alumni, live
near there. We are hoping to get a response of interest
in this idea. It will most likely be on a Saturday or
Sunday in March or April. We are in negotiations with
the golf courses out there right
now to |
|
set this
up. We have some nice things planned to run along with
the golf tournament, but we really need to know what kind
of interest there is for such an event. If you could respond
to oxalumnietabeta@yahoo.com and let us know what you
feel about the idea. We hope to have more concrete information
to you in the up coming months.
