The greatest accomplishment made by Texas Zeta this year, however, is the reestablishment of ouralumni program thanks to our new chapter adviser, Tom Hill. Mr. Hill rekindled a Phi Delta Theta tradition this year that had been absent from Texas Zeta for some time: Founders Day. We had the rare privilege of having Dr, Ed Whipple, General Council president, speak at our Founders Day, Texas Zeta thanks Mr, Hill and Dr, Whipplefor theirtime and simply demonstratingtheir dedication to Phi Delta Theta,—Oliver Hall Texas Tech University Texas Epsilon (1953), Box 4022, Texas Tech Station, Lubbock, TX 79409.

We were involved in the South Plains Food Bank, Pancake Festival, United Way blood Drive, Big Brothers/Little Brothers and the Race for Kids, Our efforts eamed us the 1992-93 Greek Community Service Organization of the Yearfor the 2"^ year in a row. Spiritual life has remained strong at Texas Epsilon. All-Greek Bible Study was started by Phis in 1936, and we currently have 20 Phis that attend regularly. We engage in Chapter Churches once a month (20-80 attend) and Chapter Bible Studies bimonthly (20-40 attend). Texas Epsilon is once again the most visible Christian fratemity at Texas Tech. Numerous Brothers are on Greek Council of Christ and attend Campus Crusade for ChrisL Lastly, more Texas Epsilon Phis are involved with youth groups and mission groups than any other fratemity, Texas Epsilon's GPA ranked 2"* among fraternities with over 65 men and sixth overall.

Chapter Adviser - Donald D. Halpenny, 275 Friendship Road, Pilot Point, TX 76258. Rush Chairman - Patton Adams, PO Box 7622, Denton, TX 76209. After attaining ourcharter in 1991, the men of Texas Omicron are now concentrating on increasing membership. We have adopted an extensive yearlong rush program in which the brothers will travel to surrounding metropolitan areas this summerto meet incoming freshmen. This program has proven helpful in attracting rushees during the recent nationwide rush recession. Texas Omicron has just initiated its 52* member Marcus Ling, and we are looking optimistically toward next fall's rush. The Phi Delts at North Texas have pride not only in their fratemity but also in their school. This is evident by their commitment to donating a portion of their community sen/ice hours to the campus clean-up. This year we participated in a March of Dimes sponsored Crop Walk. This event is held annually in Denton to provide food supply relief to under-developed nations. The idea was brought to the attention of the chapter by Phi Delt Alumnus Morgan Jones, who is an active officer of the Crop Walk committee. Our new brothers, along with ourfounding fathers, have put Phi Delta Theta at the pinnacle of Greekathletics. We made the playoffs in football and in indoor soccer for the second straight year, Texas Omicron won the Greek softball championship. The Phi Delts were also the three-point basketball champions and the racquetball doubles champions. We have set our goal to be in the top three fraternity GPAs on campus. Through the use of study groups, we have increased our GPA, and every man is committed to improving his grades. It has been satisfying to see the other bigger and olderf raternities look upon the men of Phi Delta Theta as an important leader on campus, —Christopher J.

On October 23 and 24 we raised $2,500 forthe local chapter of Muscular Dystrophy Association, We teamed up with the Trinity River Authority at Joe Pool Lake to sponsor the Forest of Fear, Greg Graham, the event chairman, worked very hard to ensure a very successful event. We initiated nine men in January, This initiation was particularly special because 20 alumni attended. Many of the alumni who attended were ourfounders. Ourfirstfather-son legacy was initiated in January, Texas Kappa has five Phikeias this spring. As of rightnow, we are without a house or a central meeting place. This is very hard during rush and during the Phikeia program. We stick together and keep moving ahead, despite this obstacle. The Texas Kappa House Corporation has made significant progress in the planning of our new home. They have showed us the finalized plans from the architect, and our wait should be well worth it. Our rush committee is gearing up for thefall, and Texas Kappa is looking forward to having a good summerand enjoying some brotherhood, —DerekTanner University of Texas Texas Beta (1883), 2300 Nueces, Austin, TX 78705.
