02/26/2011 Congrats to two fellow alumni

Congratulations to

Richard Slowik & Frank Del Vecchio

on their recent engagement

*not to each other*

For those of you have not had the pleasure of knowing either Rich or Frank, the alumni association will introduce...

Rich Slowik joined Sigma Theta Chi in the Spring of 2003 in a class by himself, literally, he went through the new member process by himself which as we all know is one of the most "interesting" ways to enter our organization. Not only was his character shown with this act but he also joined when our organization was at it's lowest. We did not have a house and there were fewer than 6 brothers active. During his years he earned the nickname of "Floppy" because of his long flowing (and somewhat girl-like) hair that flopped during an alumni vs active football game. You will all be happy to know Rich and his silky locks have parted ways circa 2005. In his free time Rich enjoys spending time with friends, snowboarding, drinking, and fixing up his new casa in Ocean twp, NJ. He also likes to weld, enjoy a cocktail or two, and in the summer months surf... Luckily for Rich and humanity, he met Natalie Castagno who will now enjoy keeping Rich out of jail.....

Francesco Del Vecchio or more widely known as Frank "the tank" entered his active years in the Fall of 2004. He has held several fraternal positions during his years, none more notably important than President during the Fall06 - Spring07 academic year, where Sigma Theta Chi was at it's largest it has been in the past 10 years. During his years attending glorious Kean University, Frank held the fraternity record for most fried bread sandwiches eaten in 24 hour period of time. This feat is one of Franks most cherished and closely held accomplishments and only was made possible from the strength and mental toughness during his training for his attempt at the world record for longest "World of Warcraft" marathon. Frank and Melissa Pontecorvo (Theta Phi Alpha Alum) met at Kean and currently reside together in wonderful town of Maple Shade, New Jersey on the Pennsylvania border.

Good luck!!

Sincerely,

Your Alumni Association

02/12/2011 Special Alumni Meeting February 15, 2011 8pm:

CALLING ALL ALUMNUS,

The following is an email we sent to each active brother earlier today....The issue prevails that the fraternity, as well as they are doing, has done a poor job in preserving our beliefs. They need a refresher on what it is to be a chi brother and what this fraternity has stood for in the past 74 years. We need to instill our beliefs of courage, character, integrity & principle into each brother this Tuesday, February 15th. Your alumni association will be present to pass this message to these fine brothers. We invite each and every one of you to join in the passing on of our message. Every brother has a voice and each of you have earned that right. Please join us in continuing what is our life blood....We need your help! See you Tuesday....

Good morning,

Several of you know but I'm sure there are a few of you who haven't heard but the Alumni are calling a special meeting of the brotherhood for this Tuesday February 15th @ 8PM. I know some of you have plans of holding a meet and greet on campus but it seems to several Alumni that we have bigger issues that need to be addressed. Please plan accordingly as this meeting may take several hours. A few ground rules:

(1) If your on the active E-board please be at the house ASAP @ approx 8pm.

(2) If you are active but not on E-board please be at the house no later than 8:30pm (Exception Grecco 9pm)

(3) If ANYONE shows up even slightly out of it don't even bother showing up. Your actions will reflect your attitude and character.

See everyone Tuesday night and if you have any questions feel free to contact me directly.

Chi Once!
