PAGE 5 FKQ FKQ A VERY COOL REUNION 2024 Homecoming Recap T he undergraduates paired with Alpha Gamma Delta sorority and Beta Theta Pi fraternity this year for Homecoming and won second place for pomping and best stomp in Yell Like Hell! The football game against Texas Tech took place on November 2, and in contrast to last year, it was decent tailgating weather with it being a little cooler. Alumni, family, and friends stopped by the chapter house to enjoy the festivities, which included catered food from Hickory Park. We raised over $1,000 for the Men of Character and 2110 Club. Although the game's result wasn't what we expected, it was still great seeing so many brothers and their families!
