    The history of the Lambda Beta colony of Phi Gamma Delta April 11, 2010 5:30 PM USU-311 ASI Boardroom Founding of the Colony / Alpha Class Pledge Ceremony Field Secretary Nate Carney, Pledge Educator Aemon Fowler, and Undergraduate Archon Councilor Michael P. “Bear” Kennedy led a group of eight young men into the ASI Boardroom and conducted the pledge ceremony for the Alpha class. April 11, 2010 6 PM USU-311 ASI Boardroom Officer Elections and Retreat The cabinet members are elected: Eric B. Sor-Lim for president, Jameson W. Nyeholt for treasurer, Nicholas J. Santos for recording secretary, Timothy Mraz for corresponding secretary, and Kaveh Lavasany for pledge class historian. Joshua R. Mas and Kshamaa S. Berg are elected to become co-recruitment chairmen, and Daniel J. Costa becomes the Social chairman. This was a careful and significant moment in our history, because choosing these elected officials of the colony meant choosing truly qualified people we want to point us in the direction that we want the colony to proceed in. The retreat was a significant insightful experience in which the guidelines for what Fiji stands for and what we should expect was put in place. April 15, 2010 7 PM Walter Pyramid Greek Sing This was the first Greek event attended by the Lambda Beta Colony members. Every year, all of the IFC fraternities and Pan-hellenic sororities of CSULB have a singing and dancing performance event to raise money for a good cause.
