Autumn Newsletter

Worthy Brothers,

This school year has gotten off to a busy start and we've had a
packed first month for Sigma Chi. Between our Social, Recruitment and
Brotherhood events, we have already had tremendous amounts of fun in
the House.
Our Brothers have done a great job already of building up our
reputation for the current year and we will continue to build on that as the
year progresses so that more students at Harvard and around Boston will
know about Kappa Eta Sigma Chi. We've had an amazing social calendar so
far, successfully mixing with the three sororities on campus, several other
groups at Harvard and sororities from other local schools. "Are you going
to Sigma Chi tonight?" is a question being heard more often around
campus. We're even having two community service mixers to benefit
different charities and make new friends. We are still planning our
biannual Habitat for Humanity trip and preparing for our Thanksgiving
Food Drive.
Recruitment has gone very well and we have had a great group of
guys come out to Rush our Fraternity. These last two weeks have provided
us with a great base, but as Pledgeship gets underway we will learn the
true character of those attempting to join our Fraternity.
Our Brotherhood events this semester have also started off
well. The longstanding tradition of Monday Night Festivities has continued
and we have added to it with bi-weekly Brotherhood Dinners cooked at the
House, when different Brothers treat us to the varied cultures of food our
Chapter has to offer. Overall the Semester has started off well and the
outlook for the next few months is great.
We're extremely excited about the Harvard-Yale festivities this
year and the 20th anniversary of our chapter's founding. We're pumped
about the dinner at the Faculty Club and the epic tailgate that is going to
occur. We will also have the only tailgate that is open after The Game starts
at noon due to the laws of Boston, as enforced by the Boston police, by
moving over to the American Legion to continue the festivities. And of
course we will end the weekend with an awesome Alumni Chapter meeting
Sunday morning. Talk to your pledge brothers and coordinate coming
back.
