Apples of gold in pictures of silver, TN Conclave & Alumni Association Annual Meeting

ANNUAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION MEETING JAN 25 @ 2pm - 525 N. Walnut
The Kappa Sigma Alumni Association (KSAA) will hold the annual housing meeting at the fraternity house on January 25, 2009 at 2pm as agreed at Homecoming 2008. The agenda will be published at our interim website using the announcements.

We'd really like to increase the participation at this event due to its significance to both the chapter and the alumni association. The meeting is tentatively scheduled for the off week prior to the Super Bowl each year. The idea is everyone gets bombarded with Super Bowl info. We hold our meeting on the off week...you got any ideas? Let us know - ttukappasigma@gmail.com.

KAPPA MU PARTICIPATES IN VANDERBILT REINSTATEMENT & TN CONCLAVE

from Will Harris

Last weekend at Vanderbilt, the Kappa Mu Chapter successfully completed model initiation, explanatory and installation of officers for the reinstated Kappa chapter. In all, 59 guys started the re-colonization of Kappa chapter, and we believe that the chapter there will be in good hands. This was the fourth installation that Kappa Mu has been invited to since 2006. At each of these, Kappa Mu was honored with the request to conduct model initiation.

TN Conclave - January 24 & 25
W Harris

This coming weekend, our chapter will compete in a ritual competition, with the winner to do model initiation at Grand Conclave in San Antonio, TX this summer.

The team competing will be as follows:
Matt Hensley and James Newsom, Jacob Wilson, Phillip Stephens, Ryan Ogletree, Hunter Burney, and Adam Poe. As well, Adam Poe will compete in an additional individual section of the competition. The goal is to follow precedence and come out on top. The hard work and dedication of these brothers continues to raise expectations and standards of the Kappa Mu chapter's ritual program and involvement. The weekend's main objective is to set a roadmap for the all Tennessee chapters to follow in 2009.

In Scholarship news, our GPA rose almost two tenths of a point overall this past fall.

CONCLAVE 2009


Brothers,
Congratulations to the chapter on the continued success in scholarship and especially in their continued studies and exhibition of Kappa Sigma principles.

I'd like to invite both alumni and undergrads who are not attending this weekend's conclave and competition to join us for the annual housing association meeting. To entice people to be up for Sunday @ 2 to meet, we are also planning a get together on Saturday night for alumni and undergrads that stay or come into town.

We will post both the agenda and minutes at interim site

If you may be able to make it on Saturday night, email ttukappasigma@gmail.com or EJ (or Butters) and we will add you to the list and send you the details. It should be a pretty good time.

We hope to see you at the house on Sunday.

A.E.K.D.B.
EJ
KSAA President
