Sigma Nu Brothers...
2009 and 2010 have been great years for Theta Kappa and all appearances are things are just getting better each day! Last Fall we had a superb rush with 31 candidates brought in, the week of homecoming the High Council approved our petition for re-chartering, we had a great homecoming in November, and then we followed it up in February with a great "Re-Chartering Weekend" initiating 29 new brothers.
This Fall we returned with 34 members, we only lose up to 6 during the year to graduation, and the results from Rush are showing we will end up with 18-20 new candidates (perhaps more), which is a superb accomplishment. We are planning to celebrate our 40th Anniversary at Homecoming and we are planning for over 150 of our alumni to return!
I ask each of you to consider attending Homecoming this fall, which is the weekend of Nov. 4-7. We have hotel rooms blocked and we have a great weekend planned - all we need is you and many more of your brothers to attend for 1, 2, 3, 4 days or more! I look forward to seeing you at Homecoming 2010!

Theta Kappa is back! While we continue our efforts to regain our charter, very positive things are happening on campus. We had a strong Fall 2009 Rush with 31 new candidates, which was #1 on GSU and double last years’ efforts. Our grades were 3.02 in Fall ‘08 and 2.87 in Spring ’09 both exceeding all men’s averages.
I would like to thank Tony Fair, Bill Geddy, and others for their tireless efforts on behalf of Theta Kappa in the years past as well as the current re-colonization process. A special thanks to alumnus Eric Moore for conducting a rush workshop before Fall ’09 rush and to J.J. Stewart, outgoing alumni commander, for his efforts in keeping us informed during the hiatus.
I look forward to seeing you this fall at Homecoming which coincides with our houses’ 20th anniversary and at our other alumni events. Keep posted for more details and a longer version of my alumni report on www.sigmanugsu.com.
