We can have our views on what we’re con- nected to, but we want to make sure that we’re running [for] the student body; what they want,” Hanscel said. Chavez and Hanscel also hope to fi nd and help implement a Veishea replacement. According to their website, they hope to “work with administration to build a springtime event that still showcases the excel- lence and success they have here on campus.” But Chavez and Hanscel see this as a benefi t to them, as they feel they can add a different and outside per- spective to Student Government. “What makes a community as large as Iowa State great is the abil- ity for these diverse communities to come together to solve problems and work out issues and have con- versations,” Chavez said. Chavez and Hanscel also hope to build a healthier relationship with administration and Iowa legislators. Something Hanscel and Chavez also feel separates them from the other candidates is their focus on military outreach.

By Emily.Hammer @iowastatedaily.com
Although it’s one of the oldest sororities in the United States, Delta Gamma was introduced to Iowa State last semester as the Eta Psi chapter, its 150th colle- giate chapter. The new chapter hosted its first philanthropy, “Anchor Splash,” on Saturday at Beyer Hall. Anchor Splash is a national event for Delta Gamma chapters, though some smaller chapters might host “Anchor Games.” The fundraiser featured seven teams composed of greek chap- ters, student organizations and student groups that competed in three relay events and a synchro- nized swimming routine.
