WA 99362. Ever since its recolonization several<br />

yearsago, Washington Beta has been afraternity<br />

on the move. This year was no exception as it<br />

continued its growth and success. Areas that were<br />

particularly successful this year were philanthropy,<br />

msh, and scholarship,<br />

Washington Beta continued a new tradition this<br />

year with its third annual Teeter-Totter-a-Thon,<br />

We raised more than $1000 for the American<br />

Diabetes Association, The fratemity also<br />

168<br />

continued its participation in the Adopt-a-Highway<br />

program in which members periodically clean up a<br />

portion of highway near the College, Other<br />

activities included a car wash and a bike-a-thon to<br />

raise money for a local women's abuse center,<br />

Washington Beta has been growing steadily<br />

overthe past several years, and thisfall marked<br />

the largest pledge class since the recolonization.<br />

We pledged 20 <strong>Phi</strong>kieas, and we did not<br />

surrenderquality forquantity, Washington Beta<br />

pledged members who will contribute positively to<br />

the success of the chapter,<br />

Washington Beta has not been so successful<br />

in scholarship in the recent past. This year,<br />

however, marked a dramatic change. The new<br />

scholarship program and hard workfrom the<br />

brothers and <strong>Phi</strong>kieas, moved Washington Beta's<br />

GPA from last to firstamong fraternities in the fall<br />

semester. Our GPA was 3,19, and we are now in<br />

the process of working hard to maintain that<br />

number one status.<br />

Even with these successes, however, we<br />

continue to strive for success in all areas of<br />

chapter life, —Matthew Levin<br />
