The men of Alpha Chapter teamed up with the women of Chi Omega to conduct the annual King of the Wing chicken wing eating contest. This year's philanthropy consisted of 32 teams and raised $2,216 with an additional donation of $264 from Buffalo Wild Wings. All donations were sent to the Make-a-Wish Foundation to help grant the wishes of those children diagnosed with terminal illnesses. 4 Congratulations, Spring 2013 Pledge Class Trent Jervis Dayton, Ohio Pat Bedford Chicago, Ill.
