Parents' Day

This past Saturday, March 6th, we held Parents' Day here at the Phi Delta Theta house. We'd like to thank all the parents and alumni that came out. The catered chicken from Slim's was great and the weather made it even better.

A special thanks goes to Parents' Club Coordinator Debbie Holliman who made Parents' Day a success.

































Here's a picture of the t-shirt from the event. We are in the process of making a second order. If you'd like to order a shirt (and you didn't already sign up for one at Parents' Day), please send your information to jgweaver AT uark.edu

Recruitment

Right now, our main focus is recruitment. We are actively seeking men at the University of Arkansas who display leadership potential, academic focus, and overall well-roundedness. Since founding in 1948, the Arkansas Alpha Chapter of Phi Delta Theta has initiated over 1,900 men and has traditionally been one of the strongest, most active fraternities on campus. We plan to continue that legacy of excellence by recruiting top-notch men.

During the current Spring semester, four men who exemplify the qualities we are looking for have already joined. Everyone who joins this semester will be given the opportunity to move into our magnificent house.

If you or someone you know has what it take to be a part of our recolonization effort, visit the website below to fill out and submit a form.

Move-In!

The scheduled move-in day had to be pushed back a couple days because of winter weather here at the University of Arkansas. When the roads finally cleared enough, members of the Fall 2009 Pledge Class were finally able to check-in on Sunday, January 31st and start moving things in throughout the following days. A few alumni also came by to grill burgers for us while we moved our things in.

Although the house is hardly half-full, we are excited to get the opportunity to move into the beautiful, newly renovated Phi Delt house and anxious to get started down the road toward rechartering.

Right now we are in the process of recruiting new members to become Re-Founding Fathers with us. We hope to keep everybody updated on our progress through this blog, so make sure to check back for updates.

Here are some pictures from move-in day:
