INSIDE: Alumnus Spotlight 2 Alumni News 2, 4 Chapter Report 3 Missouri State SUMMER 2019 E T A K A P P A C H A P T E R O F S I G M A C H I T hese are exciting times for Sigma Chi at Missouri State. Our active chapter continues to prosper since Eta Kappa's return to Missouri State in 2014. With a renewed emphasis on academic achievement and recruitment efforts that generate members who are committed to the principles that guide our fraternity, Sigma Chi is making its way back to the top of the ever- expanding number of fraternities at Missouri State. New Alumni Communication Program We are excited to launch our new alumni communications program to keep you informed of everything Eta Kappa. Our goal is to produce a newsletter each semester that highlights the chapter's success and recognizes various alumni. In connection with this process, we have sent out biographical updates to all Eta Kappa alumni. Please send these back to us so we can update your contact information. Our house corporation celebrated its 50th year of operation in June of this year. Over the years, the house corporation has managed property rentals and ownership of five chapter residences, including construction of a new chapter house in the early 1990s. For the third consecutive year, the Sigma Chi House Corporation of Springfield, Mo., has been awarded the Outstanding House Corporation award for demonstrating excellence in best management practices. If you haven't been to Missouri State in a while, you will be surprised to see all the student housing and retail development that has been completed or is in progress directly adjacent to our chapter house.
