Behind the Scenes at MTM


This blog is a day-to-day update of what is going on in Mu Tau Mu. Eventually we'll move the older journal entries from our livejournal space but for now to read the archives (entries prior to May 19, 2005), head over to http://www.livejournal.com/users/amzmtm/.

Things you'll hear about here include notification that new photos or other items are posted on our private website (more about the site is here), more detail on our activities than you see in our month-by-month history blog, news from Case, news from the collegiate chapter, news from Alpha Chi Omega at large, and occasionally fun new ideas on their way to implementation. Links to the private site will take you directly to the item mentioned.

End of the semester project & thanks!

For an end of the semester treat for the collegians at ZU, MTM bought the house 2 coffee urns and an assortment of coffees, teas and cocoas to keep them awake and happy during Finals Week at CWRU. Thank you to Lynette ZU '89 for doing the comparison shopping and making the purchase of the coffee urns and delivering them to the house (and for buying the chapter snacks to go with the drinks). Thank you to Christine ZU '02 for buying and delivering the coffee, tea and cocoa. And thanks to the Mu Tau Mu Exec Board for brainstorming and ideas!

It was great to buy something that will be a permanent addition to the kitchen at the house and we hope to continue to send coffee and other treats for future finals weeks, since the chapter really enjoyed everything this year. See here to view the nice thank you note that arrived today!

Happy Holidays everyone!!

Alpha Chi Omega Convention report now available!

Thank you to our Mu Tau Mu Convention Delegate Lisa ZU '90 for the comprehensive and informative report she prepared on the 54th Alpha Chi Omega National Convention. The long version includes excerpts of the State of the Fraternity address as well as all the legislation and election results and scans of our chapter awards (we were finalists in two categories and were also recognized for meeting minimum standards and supporting Alpha Chi Omega Foundation). The summary hits the highlights in an attractive Power Point file. Thank you Lisa for doing an excellent job representing Mu Tau Mu!
