Extension process in final step!
On this Monday evening the Panhellenic Council will vote to approve the recommendation of the Extension Committee as to which national sorority will be K-State's newest sorority.  This recommendation was carefully crafted by those on the Extension Committee after extensive review and consideration of each of the three groups visiting campus.  The committee's recommendation was provided by email to all chapter presidents, Panhellenic delegates, and primary chapter advisors. 
 
Those on the Extension Committee put in many hours and much hard work to prepare for the proper and appropriate growth of our sorority community.  Please thank these individuals for all of their efforts:

Enjoy Sunset Reval this weekend, support the Christopher Reeves Foundation
It's that time of year again!  This Saturday, May 2nd, is Sigma Nu and Sigma Phi Epsilon's highly anticipated Sunset Revival 2009.  Sunset Revival is a charity concert held annually in the front lawn of Sigma Nu every year. It is the 2nd largest concert in Riley County (only second to Stampede) and the largest philanthropy in the Greek community.  All benefits raised at the concert will once again go to the Christopher Reeves Foundation (a charity dedicated to helping those with spinal cord injuries). T-shirts will cost $20 and will be on sale for the remainder of the week at the student union from 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. and also will be sold all day on Saturday at the entrance to the concert.  The t-shirts will be your ticket into the concert, and you can come and go as you please.

Sunset Revival is a great tradition that supports an excellent cause and it really is one of the last spectacular events that happens before school is let out for Summer break.  This year looks to be even more special with appearances by Willie the Wildcat and Men's Head Basketball Coach Frank Martin.
