Not that there has not been plenty to report. For all of us, the world has dramatically changed over the last few weeks. But for the Fraternity, the world changed back in 2018.

An incident occurred just before Treasurer Report 3 Homecoming (the details of which are somewhat immaterial now). As result of this incident, the University gave the Active Body Alumni Updates 3-5 three options: disband, join up with a National fraternity or work with the University to totally reorganize the organization. At that Housefather 6 point, the Alumni Association stepped in and offered a fourth al- ternative: the Alumni Association would become the “National” for Active Update 7 the Active Body. The University agreed to allow the Alumni Asso- ciation to work with the University toward that end. Since that Alumni Notes 7-8 time the Alumni Association has worked toward that goal. Alumni Dues Update 9 It started by representatives from the Alumni Association meeting with University representatives on a regular basis, mostly weekly Mentorship 9 at 8 a.m. Thursday mornings, to learn what the University would expect from the Alumni Association to accept this responsibility. I Alumni Contacts 10 think the University extremely doubted our ability to perform these expected responsibilities, and I believe for them the jury is In Memoriam 11 still out.

It relies on fontspec to work and familiarity with fontspec is advised. I thank Will Robertson for his useful advice and suggestions! The package is developmental and later versions might to be incompatible with this version. This version is incompatible with earlier versions. The package requires at least version 0.9995 of XƎTEX. *v0.2b update by Will Robertson ([email protected]). 1 Should you be using this package? If you are using another LaTEX package for some mathematics font, then you should not (unless you know what you are doing). If you want to use Asana Math or Cambria Math (or the final release version of the stix fonts) then you should be using unicode-math. Some paragraphs in this document are marked advanced. Such paragraphs may be safely ignored by basic users. 2 introduction Since Jonathan Kew released XƎTEX, an extension to TEX that permits the inclusion of system wide Unicode fonts and modern font technologies in TEX documents, users have been able to easily typeset documents using readily available fonts such as Hoefler Text and Times New Roman (This document is typeset using Sabon lt Std).
