ATO missing irreplaceable memorabilia
On Saturday night after Spring 2009 finals Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) was the victim of theft and vandalism.
 
The ATO and US flags were cut down from the Chapter flagpole.
 
The Chapter House was entered and irreplaceable items were stolen from the Chapter Room.  These included 6 initiation paddles, an Anniversary plaque and a lighted ATO Badge given to the Chapter by its Housemother in 1954!
 
ATO wishes to have everything back -- no questions asked.

Need a Philanthropy?
Patrick Jankovich, Vice President of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia at K-State, is looking for another organization to join them in a philanthropy. Phi Mu Alpha is a fraternity that is interested in the advancement of music in America. Last year K-State Senior Becki Ronen (Miss Kansas) started a fundraiser for Accessible Arts, a Kansas City based organization that provides a mean for disabled children to do performance arts. The event is called Heart for Art, and Phi Mu Alpha is looking to continue the fundraiser. If you would be interested in joining with Phi Mu Alpha you can contact Patrick Jankovich at patjanks@gmail.com or 402-690-2617.
 
Study Abroad
Faculty-led group study abroad courses are excellent opportunities for KSU Greek students to participate in study abroad. These are short-term courses that involve a group of K-State students and a professor traveling abroad as part of the curriculum. These courses are offered during winter break, spring break, and summer. Out-of-state students and international students pay in-state tuition for these courses.
