The year was started on a positive note when the chapter received the Alost Improved Indiana Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta award at the State Day convention in February. This award is based on scholarship, social service, intramural activities and overall accomplishments and improve ments. In April, our seventh-place finish in the Purdue Grand Prix Go-Kart Race concluded the school year. This was the First topten Finish earned by the Phi Gams in recent years and helped to add an exclamation point to the end of the spring semester. Over the summer. Lambda Iota sent three delegates to the 150th Anniversary Ekklesia in Pittsburgh. This was a monumen tal meeting, not only because it enabled the members present to celebrate 150years of Phi Gamma Delta history, but also due to the policies that were developed. Upon return from summer vacation, the brothers at 640 Russell were Filled with energ\', and excited for another great Boiler football season. We were lucky to have a great turnout for Homecoming, which was complemented by beautiful weather and a Purdue victory. The brothers continued to support the team, and several were even fortunate enough to travel to San Antonio to watch the Alamo Bowl and celebrate our victory there. Throughout last semester, the chapter had performed 225 hours of community service. We helped the local Red Cross, Community Family Resource Center and the West Lafayette Environmental Commission. The pinnacle of the fall 1998 semester occurred when we received our scholarship report. Lambda Iota moved from a disappointing 27th to an outstanding seventh position, and our GPy\ surpassed the all-men's, all-fraternity and all-campus averiiges. Our next academic goal is to earn a CPA that will place us among the top five fraternities. y\t the 1999 BetaGraduate Chapter Indiana State Day, the Lambda Iota chapter took home four awards. The chapter was recognized for having the best attendance at the event, received an honorable mention for our Graduate Relations program, and earned awards for most-improved scholastic average and most outstandingrush ibr taking the largest pledge class at Purdue Left to right: Larry Lane '50 and wife Jane chat with Purdue University President Steven C. Beering at the Christmas Open House. Great Response at Christmas Party A New Tradition? By Alichael Riebe 00 and Justin Botos 00 Last year we hosted the first of what we hope will lie an annual Lambda Iota tradition: the Phi Gamma Delta alcohol-free Christmas party. Invited were the local graduate brothers and their wives as well as neighbors and members of the Purdue University faculty and administration for the December 3, 1998, event. The response was great. All the undergraduate brothers and the members of the new pledge class were joined fjy Na tional Ritualist William iVliller (Zeta 62, Lambda lota '96) and Purdue Athletic Director iMorgan Burke '7.3. The Fijis also had a very special visit by Purdue University President and iWrs. Steven Beering. The event began at 6:30 p.m. at the chapter house with light hors d'oeuvres and casual conversation. The house was festively decorated by the pledge class of 2002. After everyone had the opportunity to meet one another and tour the chapter house, we gathered to hear the new pledge class of 2002 serenade everyone. The evening was capped off Ity a moving solo of 0 Iloly Nujht by freshman Chris Flauska. The Lambda Iota undergraduates antl graduates were all very pleased with the evening. The chapter looks forward to next year's Christmas party and more like it.'^' Chii.drkn's CiittisTMAS PAim' A Long-standing Tr;\dition ... University.

Rush Functions Steve Pritogle '99 as he nears completion of his two-year term as Archon Councilor. Steve is the fifth undergraduate to serve in this important position and the only undergraduate brother from the state of Indiana to have been so honored. Thank You, Mothers' Club By Chris Dunsmore '99 As always, the iMoms' Club has been veiy bus^' this year! Recently, the^' generously donated four nights of snacks during finals week. You'd be surprised how fast 600 wings can be eaten by 80 guys! You also would be surprised how grateful the brothers are to receive these entertaining study breaks sponsored by the Mothers' Club. Special thanks to Susan Dunsmore (and her husband. Buster) for coordinating and delivering the snacks this^'ear. Also in the fall. Dee Brock and Mothers' Club President Christie I^rifbgle organized the annual Mother's Club auction. It turned out to be a festive football Saturday event that generated more than $4,000 for the Mothers' Club. The Mothers' Club works with the undergraduates to find useful wiiys to use these funds. In the past, we have used Mothers' Club funds for new couches, a new 52-inch television and kitchen supplies. Again, we thank all the parents who donated items to be auctioned and especially the dedicated mothers who volunteered their time that day to make the auction a success! I'he iMothers' Clula has always been great wa\' lor motliers to get in\'olved with Laml^da Iota — and we are truly grateful for everything that they do. Phi Gamma Delta has always been rich with brotherhood, and the invoK'ement of our mothers truly drives home the valuable sense of family closeness that we all feel in the (raternity. Thanks, Moms!4- B\' Ciarl Margraf '00 This piist fall's rush was a great success for the fraternity'. A total of more than 400 young men attended three weeks of rush functions at the beginning of the fall semester. Of these 400 men, 35 were e.xtended invitations to pledge the fraternity and 31 accepted. This is one of the largest pledge classes the Lambda Iota chapter has seen in recent years. It also was the largest fall class rushed on Purdue's campus. The success of this year's fraternity rush was due in great part to the participation of our graduate brothers, 13 of whom sent 25 recommendations during this year's rush period. These recommendations helped make up one-fifth of this year's pledge class. The chapter would like to thank all those graduate brothers who sent recommendations. We would, however, like to see even greater graduate involve ment in the future. Please do not hesitate to notifythe chapter via mail or phone of any possible young men you feel would make quality Phi Gams.'^' Brothers Vish Headquarters p' -pV , ' • •/ AJ THE FRATERNITY OF 4JHI GAMMA DELTA _ • ^ '^^^''NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS rf FOUNDED 1848 i"'" '" ' iT.

By Adam Courneya '00 Many changes have been sweeping through the Lambda Iota chapter this year. Maybe the most noticeable of these changes is our rededication to scholastic excellence.

This improvement earned the Most Improved Scholastic Average award for the chapter at Indiana's Fiji State DavThe active chapter now claims an overall GPA of 2.856.
