Alumni Brothers,
We hope you enjoyed our Snake Quarterly newsletter, which provided a glimpse of the continued success of your Zeta Iota Chapter of Sigma Nu. To update you – we achieved one of the highest fraternity GPA’s at SJSU; our goal is to be number one. We are finally starting major renovations to the bathrooms and plumbing. We have 20 pledges from this Fall Rush. We will soon have the largest active chapter since the early 1990’s. We survived a difficult period of low membership and managed to retain our cherished House, which still houses some of your fondest memories. We want to help our alumni get reconnected with their old brothers and the Active Chapter with a major event. Please join us for the 60th Anniversary White Rose Gala, November 12, honoring the founding brothers of Theta Mu Sigma and Zeta Iota.

We will account for some last minute registrations, but strongly urge you to register now -- to help us make final planning and catering decisions before the hotel deadline. We are getting great feedback with high interest. Many people are traveling from all over the country to stay at the hotel -- with our preferred room rates. The Gala will be most enjoyable with the largest turn out possible. We urge you to contact your own network of brothers and motivate them to attend – with you; this method has been most effective. Consider purchasing a table of ten to reserve for your own group; this is most helpful. We have done the preparation to have a great evening of memories; now, you only need to sign up and show up.
If you have old fraternity pictures, please scan them (reply by Email), or mail to Sigma Nu P.O. box (to be returned); we will display them at the 60th Anniversary. If you have a business you would like to promote via “sponsorships” to help support the Chapter, we have various options; (reply to email). If you cannot attend, consider sending a message to the Chapter that will be printed in the program with your donation. Send us contact information for any brothers you think we may be missing.
