The weekend included a variety of discussions, debates and presentations as well as the necessary election of new governors, adoption of a budget and approval of policy decisions. Proper attention was also devoted to the fraternity’s normal social capacity over the course of three evenings. The Board of Governors met on Thursday, July 31st, and devoted most of its time to discussing long-range topics such as strategic planning, The Johns Hopkins Chapter’s Literary Presentation at the 182nd Convention: functions and specifications for the new Chapter members perform of Our Crowd by Thornton Wilder, Y ‘20 and “reinvented” headquarters office and updating of the fraternity’s Alumni governors were elected by Castle’s presentation engendered exten- integrated communications program. acclamation. ded and lively discussion.

Eliot becomes the Fraternity’s 30th active Chapter; this represents the largest number of active chapters since 1992. Eliot was granted affiliate status by the Board in Spring of 2012 under auspicious circumstances as the University had just suspended 2 Greek organizations for hazing and placed a moratorium on expansion at the University pending a full review of Greek life on campus. The study has been completed, and it is hoped that University will soon lift its moratorium and that it will recognize the Eliot Chapter in the near future in light of the compelling example the Chapter sets for Greek life.
