The Interfraternity Council (IFC), hosted a Castle Point Terrace wide Barbecue on Saturday October 24^th that the Brothers of Theta Xi participated in. The Brothers opened up the house to potential new members for tours, billiards, socials and games of ping pong. There was also a variety of food that was prepared by our wonderful Chef Theresa for the event.

On October 18^th the Brothers of Theta Xi hosted a Rush Event for potential new members by the name of “Root Beer, Brats and Tots.” The Brothers bought a Birch Beer Keg and cooked a bunch of Brats and Tater Tots for all to enjoy. There was a large turnout with around 20 potential new members showing up to enjoy the delicious food and drink and to watch some football and get to know some of the Brotherhood. The Brothers will also be hosting several more large Rush Events throughout the rest of the semester.

Craig O’Dell, Kyle Schnering, Joe Capretta, Jon Karkoska, and Nick Minervini all participated in this year’s Lipsync hosted by Phi Sigma Sigma. Phi Sig has been hosting this event for the past few years and all the proceeds go towards their national philanthropy. This year’s theme was best of the best and the brothers of Theta Xi chose the Backstreet Boys for their performance. Special thanks to Terez Lebron and Christina Sciarra of Phi Sigma Sigma, our team’s coaches, for helping us with our act and teaching us some dance moves. We look forward to participating in this event in the future. It was a great time for the performers and the audience!

A Letter From the President,

It has been a busy year for us at Theta Xi Gamma Chapter, and our national HQ has taken notice!

We started the year strong by taking a record number of new members to Rising Stars and President’s

National leadership academy in St. Louis which would not have been possible without the support of our

local alumni association. When we returned from convention we went right to work with our new

associate member class breaking into a double digit member class for the first time in recent history.

While educating our associates on the Quest for Theta Xi, we also managed to become an example on

campus for Risk Management practices, receiving praise from Stevens Office of Greek life and

collaborating with the IFC to write a risk management program for events.

We are honored to receive the Presidents Cup from Theta Xi HQ, putting us in the top 5% of

Chapters nationally. It would not have been possible without a superstar executive committee

(Shoutouts to Richie!), impassioned brotherhood, and our award winning advisor of the year Andy

Cartania Γ 1112, who has been with us for many years and I hope will stay for many more. Far from

complacent, Theta Xi Gamma hopes to firm up our campus presence and philanthropy efforts over the

next year. We’re coming for you, Kansas State!

Yours In the Bonds,

Charles Cannon
