Founders Day Registration Now Open!!!
Founders Day registration is now online! Come join us for the largest Founders Day in Theta Theta's History as we celebrate 35 years at Illinois State!
The weekend is packed with events, beginning on Friday night when many of our alumni will arrive into town from across the US (and some from even beyond our boarders!) On saturday, we will have our Alumni Association meeting, dedicate the new Scholarship Room built by the Alumni Association and Parents Association, participate in the honorary initiation of 2 soon-to-be Theta Theta alumni, and socialize with other alumni and undergraduate brothers, parents, wives, dates, families, and friends of Theta Theta at the Banquet, held at the NEW Marriott in Normal (across the street from Watterson towers).

Brothers, We have a BoT meeting this evening... Please take a momment and review the schedule of the chapter meetings for the house. Please come prepared to volunteer for a day to attend a chapter meeting. Exec board will be held on a separate day however chair meetings will take place a half hour before the chapter meeting.
Second, as we all know recruitment is a big part of each semester. Zac Summers was kind enough to send us the recruitment dates...
Beta Pi Class Initiation; Record Alumni Turnout
On Saturday, January 16th, The Alumni Association welcomed our newest undergraduate brothers of the Beta Pi Pledge Class into our Chapter. The Ritual was held in the Founders Suite at the Bone Student Center (the same equipment and room which was used to induce Br. Dr. Al Bowman, President of Illinois State University, in 2004).
New Alumni Relations Officer Appointed!
Worthy Master John Schueller has appointed Kyle Logan Simkins the new Alumni Relations Officer (ARO), replacing previous ARO Matt Decreval. Kyle has previously served the chapter as Worthy Master and Worthy Scribe(Secretary). Kyle is a senior English Major in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and has a great relationship with officers of the Alumni Association and trustees on the Board of Trustees. Kyle can be reached via email at klsimki@ilstu.edu.
Alumni Asked to Help Recruit!
It’s recruitment time again, and the Undergraduate Recruitment Chairman Zac Summers has asked that alumni come to the recruitment events and help out! This is a great opportunity for alumni to not only meet with and gauge prospective members, but also meet their undergraduate brothers.
Editorials:
On the Eve of Our 35th Year.
Each of us have had to cast away dreams which never matured. Perhaps it was our dream of becoming a baseball player, or an architect, or winning the Nobel Prize in physics. Perhaps it was the dream of marrying our fifth grade crush. Perhaps it was the dream of that big house with the Porsche in the driveway. Looking back upon our lives, we can see the path of dreams preceding us, some realized and some discarded, never taking on meaning.
My Christmas Letter
On behalf of all of our board members and alumni, I want to wish you a merry and blessed Christmas, and a happy and prosperous new year!
I have been fortunate to be able to watch our Chapter grow over these past three years as your Association President, and every day I am reminded that without our alumni, we could never have the successes we have shared.
State of the Association Address
Brothers, Family, and Friends, first and foremost I would like to thank you for attending this years Founders Day celebration, and for your continue support of our chapter.
