Hey Guys,
Logan 08/11/2002 From Logan Lightfoot
Gentlemen,
Phi Sig Excellence...we don't print this on T-shirts or make an extravaganza out of it...it always has been and always will be our standard. Logan 05/09/2002 From Logan Lightfoot I just received the active chapter's grades for the spring semester. As it turns out, this semester has seen us reach many accomplishments and satisfy many of our goals in academics. There are a total of 28 men that achieved a Grade Point Average of 3.0 or above! As a chapter, we came out with a 2.76 which put us above the all-male average and among the elite as far as fraternities go. A huge thank you goes out to all of the Alumni who helped us out this year. Your support has helped us tremendously with our Scholarship Program as well as all other areas of the fraternity. Logan Lightfoot 04/23/2002 From Logan Lightfoot Hey Guys, It is getting close to the end of the year and I just wanted to give you guys an update on the actives. We ended the year very strong picking up several awards and saw membership increase steadily. Our active chapter is up to about 55 men. Last week at NW Greek Awards Ceremony several members were honored. Lon Nuss won Outstanding Greek President and I received Outstanding Greek Man of the Year. This is the first time in campus history that two men from the same fraternity were given these two awards. We are heading down to our National Convention in July with a great chance of picking up our second consecutive Outstanding Chapter of the Year award. It has been a great year highlighted by the doors at 940 College Avenue reopening. We have an All House White Glove scheduled for Thursday starting at 12:00. There will be plenty of guys over here that day and we should be able to get this project knocked off. Also, I want to get started quickly on figuring out the Active Chapter's contribution to the house via the flagpole stand. Doug Russell, the chapter adviser, is moving in starting on Thursday. We have gradually been moving him in over the past few weeks but he should be completely in the house starting next week. We did room assignments last night. The house will obviously be full starting in August, and pretty full all summer. 18 guys living there in May, 15 guys living there in June, and 17 guys living there in July. Leases are all signed and ready to go for the fall. Logan Lightfoot 02/12/2002 From Nathan Leopard
We just held initiation last week, and with 17 new members we initiated Mr. Pat Hofer as an honorary
member. As many of you know, Pat has been around the chapter for the last few years since his son,
Dustin, became an active member. We felt very adamant about initiating Pat who is a Phi Sig at
heart! If you'd like to congratulate him, or simply send him a greeting you can email him at
Thanks!
In response to Brother Gary Gruhn's post here's an email listing of pretty much everyone in the chapter now. We just closed spring rush with 7 guys, but I don't have their email addresses. I didn't include phone numbers or addresses because many will change once the house is completed. Many of us are still living in temporary locations, and excited about moving in. Logan Lightfoot, Casey McConkey and myself plan on attending the alumni event in KC next week, so we look forward to seeing a lot of you there. We also have a chapter email address if you want to send email there as well... hope this helps!!!

Thanks, DAMN PROUD!!! Fraternally, Nathan Leopard Grand Chapter/Alumni Relations 12/03/2001 From Nathan Leopard Dear Brothers, I wanted to just send you an update on some of Epsilon Nu's efforts and activities throughout the recent semester. First off, our alumni's efforts in dealing with our new housing project have been nothing short of amazing. We are nearing the completion date for our new "Mansion" at 940 College Avenue, hoping to have it completed within January. Though having only one week of classes and finals week coming up on us, we have tried to work more hands on in helping to finish the project. Our Alumni chapter has been nothing but supportive of us, and we can never repay them for the blood, sweat, tear, and $$ that they have put into this, Thank you. Something that we have always taken pride in is our pursuits of Homecoming excellence. I am glad to report that we all but swept 1st place in all of our Homecoming ventures. Nonetheless, we won Homecoming Parade Supremacy at Northwest. Throughout the semester we have tried to increase our philanthropic efforts, and have participated in nearly every organization's philanthropy events. Most recently, we have helped to sponsor a family for "Adopt-A-Family" by donating money to our local Order of Omega chapter, we have sponsored twelve children for a local "Angel Tree" philanthropy which involves buying Christmas presents for the individuals, and we donated more than 100 articles of clothing to an Order of Omega sponsored "Rummage sale" where the procedes and additional clothing will go to the less forutnate. We have competed strongly in intramural events, had a great rush, and have tried to focus a great deal on improving grades and our new membership education program, while adhering to our rituals and values. I am extremely proud to say that things have been going very well, and that we are trying to gear up for another successful semester in the Spring... and move into our new home at 940. As always, we appreciate all the support, help and brotherly love that we have received from our alumni, the Grand Chapter, and International Headquarters on a daily basis. Our success is due, in great part to each of you. Thank you and God Bless! DAMN PROUD! Fraternally yours, Nathan "Mercury" Leopard Grand Chapter and Alumni Relations 11/18/2001 From Logan Lightfoot Elections for the top six executive positions were held last Monday evening. The following are the newly elected executive officers:
Things are going great right now with the guys. We are REALLY looking forward to moving back into the Center of the Universe and are getting ready to activate a great pledge class in January. Please feel free to contact any of us if you have any questions or concerns.
Fraternally,
10/23/2001 From Nathan Leopard Just to let you all know about our recent Homecoming triumphs, the following is a list of how we did with Homecoming! Like it always is, we're all trying to figure out what we're going to do with all of our free time... might get some sleep now!
For all of you that were there, we hope you enjoyed the parade, we appreciate your support, thank you for all that you do!
Fraternally,
09/25/2001 From Nathan Leopard We've closed rush with 24 new members and we've been hitting homecoming stuff pretty hard the last week. D-Chi was found guilty of dirty rushing and has lost recruitment priveleges for next fall. However, they are in the process of appealing to the V.P. of Student Affairs. Things are going good! Nathan Leopard 09/19/2001 From Nathan Leopard Brothers, At this point we've had a pretty successful rush. We've signed, what we feel, is a real quality 21 new members, still a couple of bids out! Rush is a little down from the previous couple of years. Sig Ep is in the mid-20's, TKE is in the teens, and D-Chi has signed over 40 new members. In explanation of that last part, D-Chi has been brought up on 2 account of "dirty rushing", and may possibly be brought up on 4 accounts... they MAY lose recruitment privileges. They have displayed an outright defiance against IFC rules and legislation, have talked dirt on all fraternities, and lied about awards and honors all throughout recruitment. I guess we'll see what happens! Again, we're extremely happy with the men that we have, even though it has been somewhat overshadowed by the actions of our favorite fraternity! We're just beginning to work on float, and with the Outstanding Chapter Award, the New 940 College Ave., and a great pledge class we're using that momentum and building on it! Expectations are high, and we plan on having an extremely successful year! Damn Proud!
Fraternally,
08/07/2001 From Logan Lightfoot The Phi Sigma Kappa National Convention was held this past week. I wanted to let you all know that we were awarded the Herbert L. Brown Outstanding Chapter Award that is given to the most outstanding Phi Sig chapter in the nation. One of the several criteria that goes into this judging is Alumni support. This is a very big honor for the actives. Hopefully, housing issues will be taken care of by the end of the week. We still have several guys who are still looking for places to live. The university has offered us rooms but at a ridiculously high cost. Please let us know if there is anything that the active chapter can do to help out with the house or fundraiser (make phone calls,fliers, etc.)
Thanks,
