34 November, 1983 Although the state of the econo­ my may have been somewhat de­ pressed during the 1982-83 academ­ ic year, Delta Sigma Pi's expansion and reactivation program did not, in any way, experience a recession. Last year, the fraternity installed three new collegiate chapters and reactivated two previously dormant chapters. All of this activity took place during the spring of this year; four installations and reactivations occurred in April alone. We welcome all of the members of these chapters into our Brotherhood and present their success stories to you. ETA NU CHAPTER BACK AT U.M.S.L. After a period of inactivity dating from 1974, Eta Nu Chapter was re­ activated at the University of Missouri-St. Louis on April 2, 1983. A total of 18 new collegiate mem­ bers were initiated as the number of active collegiate chapters in the state of Missouri increased to five. Jeffrey A.

Additional recruiting activities were conducted during the fall and winter quarters as the members of Psi Alpha sponsored a wide vari~ty of activities and fulfilled the reqwre­ ments for a chapter charter. Their membership in the Winona Area Chamber of Commerce provided them with numerous valuable con­ tacts for professional activities.
