As Alumni Director and graduate of the Washburn School of Business, I have interacted with our Delta Sigma PI organization and feel that an active chapter here would benefit your international fraternity and Washburn University. The Delta Sigma Pi colony here has been visible and active on the Washburn campus. it has attracted energetic and professional business students who I expect will do very well in their pursuits as alumni! I hope you will act favorably upon their request . Yours sincerely. yy^n-^C.^ ^2-^n^- ne Hoferer ctor hburn Alumni Assoc I at ion D E L T A S I ^A M A P I AL Shanda R. Gray Midwestem Regional Director August 30, 1994 Board of Directors Intemational Fratemity of Delta Sigma Pi 330 South Campus Avenue Oxford, Ohio 45056-0230 RE: Reactivation of Nu Delta Chi Dear Members of the Board: The attached petition is from the Nu Delta Chi Colony of Delta Sigma Pi at Washbum University. Since the beginning informational meeting at the University to the current time, it has been the goal of this group to reactivate the Delta Chi Chapter of the International Fratemity of Delta Sigma Pi. Since my first meeting with the colony, I have continually been impressed with their professionalism, persistence and dedication. They are a very innovative group in that they are always looking for ways to better the community, the University and their own organization. Guidance from their District Director, Delta Sigma Pi alumni and University faculty have greatly added to the polish of this successful colony. I strongly support the Nu Delta Chi colony in their petition to re-establish the Delta Chi Chapter of the Intemational Fraternity of Delta Sigma Pi at Washburn University. The Colony has exhibited the initiative, enthusiasm, professionalism and dedication that would again make it an outstanding chapter of Delta Sigma Pi. Fratemally, Shanda R. Gray Midwestern Regional Director July 27, 1994 To the Board of Delta Sigma Pi: I, Ed Zeller, am strongly recommending that we add the Nu Delta Chi colony as a new chapter to our intemational organization. I have a variety of reasons for making such a recommendation, as I have been involved with the colony since September of 1993. This colony has been dedicated to becoming a chapter of this professional fraternity, which has been demonstrated through their pursuit after being denied in May of 1994. They are continuing to work on fulfilling their requirements to be accepted. The colony has been a positive, active influence on the campus of Washbum University. They are receiving both faculty and administrative support, since the activities the colony sponsors have been both educational and fiin for the students and faculty. The colony has been active in interacting with the business community, through tours, visits and meetings at various establishments within the community. I strongly feel that this colony has the potential to be the type of chapter we want on a campus. A chapter that will promote the welfare of students, campus and community through professional and social activities. Fratemally yours, Edward K. Zeller Mu Epsilon #29 JAMES D. BLOOMAR 2116 SW MEADOW LN TOPEKA, KS 66614-1442 December 8, 1993 The International Fraternity of Delta Sigma Pi 330 S Campus Ave Oxford, OH 45056-0230 Dear Brothers, I am writing on behalf of Delta Sigma Pi colony Delta Chi #595, Washburn University, Topeka, KS to express my support for reinstatement of chapter status. It has been my distinct pleasure to be a member of this fraternity. The Delta Chi colony has been making great efforts to become one of the finest fraternities on the Washburn campus. I have witnessed the increased enthusiasm and activities personally. I returned to Washburn University two years ago to pursue my Bachelor of Science in Nursing and consequently on campus to witness their progress . The colony has arranged activities, both professional and social. It has distributed food collection boxes throughout campus for donations to be given to the needy.
