Fiji Spirit At
Grad Round-up
The Fijis ficrc at Colorado State Uni\crsity have always been interested in
our graduate brothers. Since the major
ity of graduates live in the Denver area,
we set out to ha\e a round-up of as many
of these Fijis as possible. V\'e did not
feel that the R.AAf FIJI was alone the
contact we wanted.
'I'he
Rush
Committee,
under
the
direction of Dave Miller, made prepar
ations for tlie round-u]). Da\e, working
hand-in-hand with Ken Johnson of the
I
Graduate Relations Committee, sent out
approximately three hundred invitations
to graduates in the Denver-Boulder area.

reason
that
the

Committee
was "called in" was tfiat we wanted this
to actually be a rush function. Since Phi
Kappa is a new chapter, we wanted to
acc]uaint the graduates with us. Even
more importantly, we wanted this to be
a reunion of Fijis; to renew old friend
ships in the graduates, and just an allaround place to get to know Fijis we

'^reMclent iSpeak^
We arc ending our first year as a
chapter of Phi Gamma Delta and already
we have made a substantial imitact at
Colorado State Uni\crsity. I am proud
to say that I am President of a group

islature elections (making Phi Gamma

we have had a brother running for the
ASCSU Legislature College of Business
representative's seat. We now have had
a brother elected Vice-President of Inter
Fraternity Council and have been asked
to organize a Pledge Education Sym
posium later this spring as well as to
see about the possibilities of starting a
Greek newspaper in (onjuiution with
number about twenty. It is my btlief
that, because of the problems at the
Uniyersity of Colorado, we shoidd neces
sarily become the spokesman for our
Phi Gam graduates in Colorado and tha'
c:ur Ram Fiji should be channelled to
repr..sent all the Fijis in the :ir(a :md
not just our own gradinites.
This may look good on |)aper but it
will not Inippen unless there is physical
ellort on the ])art of both undergraduates
and graduates alike. We have therefore
organized the Graduate Roundup to gel
graduates to meet other graduates and
to gi\c us the chance to meet them all.
Gne of these get-to-gethers has already
b.en held in the Denver area this Feb
ruary and we are
around the visit

tions to all Phi Gam graduates in Colo
