May you continue to lead Gamma Nu to another strong year!
Attention alumni! As the year pushes on, so too do our many annual events. This year, Christmas Party will be held on Friday, December 11th 2009. As we move into Spring, Banquet has been reserved for March 27th, 2010, and retreat will be held April 23rd-25th.  Hope to see you there!
Gamma Nu recently wrapped up another succesful quarter as finals week marked the end of the 2009 Fall quarter. The past 10 weeks saw:
  • 7 RIT students turn into Phi Tau Men of Character
  • 6 Neophytes were initiated into our brotherhood of men
  • Over 300 hours of community service
  • The purchase of a brand new house projector through your alumni donations
  • The on campus house get completely renovated by RIT
  • Several additions/renovations to Dean's
  • Stan McKenzie was honored for his 2007 induction into the Phi Kappa Tau National Hall of Fame
  • The 2nd Annual Milestones or Millstones Weekend to discuss the goals for the year
  • Several brotherhood dinners, for example a full Thanksgiving feast
We hope the Winter quarter can see an even more productive quarter as we continue our push to be the best chapter at RIT!
After volunteering for the Three Rivers Domain Director position, Gamma Nu Alumnus PJ Best learned that one of the chapters in his domain had ceased to initiate new members. Feeling the need to correct this situation, he contacted current Gamma Nu President Phil Frandina and Upstate Domain Director Steve Nims to ask if Brothers of the Gamma Nu Chapter would be interested in initiating some of the Epsilon Rho Neophytes and then teach them the ritual. PJ would travel to Rochester from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a small group of the men from the Epsilon Rho Chapter, and then having been initiated and taught the ritual, could go back to IUP to initiate the rest of the Brothers.

After agreeing that lending a hand would not only allow their chapter to extend the hand of fellowship to their brothers in need, but also give the them an opportunity to meet and develop friendships with brothers from another chapter, Phil and Steve felt that helping PJ would be the right thing to do. Early in the Fall 2009 quarter, PJ and Phil continued to discuss the logistics of the initiations and found a free weekend in December to host the event.
