This Week in Greek

Delta Gamma: The DGs are finishing their slating process, and results will be posted on Sunday. Furthermore, this Saturday will be, in the words of one prominent member, “Delta-Gamtastic.” The ladies are leaf raking in the morning, throwing rocks at their chapter bowling retreat in the afternoon, then hosting their fall winter formal at the Underground that night.

Kappa Kappa Gamma: Mr. Whitman is on Friday, and tickets will be sold at the door for $8. Lastly, on Tuesday the chapter had a workshop on women’s sexuality with Sharon Kaufman-Osborne.

Kappa Alpha Theta: On Saturday the chapter has a sisterhood Thanksgiving dessert, as well as leaf-raking philanthropy event with the Phis, planned. This past weekend Biology Professor Kate Jackson presented to the chapter about snakes and her adventures in the Congo.

Phi Delta Theta: This week the Phis have a scholarship talk with History Professor David Schmitz on previous economic crises. This Saturday the chapter has its chaplain’s retreat, which will include leaf raking in the morning (with, gasp, the Thetas!!) and a candle pass in the afternoon. Elections are next Thursday, and its been reported that a holographic will.i.am will be present.

Beta Theta Pi: The Betas are outdoing themselves academically, hosting not one but TWO scholarship talks in the coming week. Beta President David Ogle states reassuring, “Don’t worry, we’re just being hella ironic. Honestly, no one saw this coming.” Two members who studied in Ecuador this past summer will present on their experience, and Foreign Languages and Literatures Professor Nohemy Solorzano-Thompson will discuss gender.

Sigma Chi: On Saturday the Sigma Chi pledge class has a philanthropy event with Habitat for Humanity, followed by a pledge father/pledge son retreat in the afternoon.

Tau Kappa Epsilon:
On Tuesday Geology Professor Pat Spencer presented to the chapter on alcohol and alcoholism. Furthermore, this Saturday the house is volunteering with Habitat for Humanity and holding elections. The TKE Thanksgiving Dinner, open to all members of the community, is scheduled for Wednesday Nov. 19th.
