PAGE 3 Oklahoma State University I t has been such an exciting and transformative year for our chapter, and I'm honored to share a quick update from our home at 324 S. Cleveland! After years of anticipation, our members finally moved into our beautiful new chapter house this January, and it truly feels like home. The laughter, late-night chats in the Boot Room, study sessions and memories we've built within these walls are some we'll cherish for years to come. We are so grateful for this space and the people who fill it. In the fall, we started strong with a fourth- place finish in Freshman Follies alongside the men of Sigma Chi. We also had a great time building a Homecoming deck with Sigma Nu and wrapped up the fall semester with our annual Little Angels Christmas event, one of our favorite traditions. Spring brought even more celebrations and accomplishments! Our date parties were a blast, from the disco-themed party with the women of Kappa Alpha Theta and Kappa Kappa Gamma to our Love Is in the Air event—our first date party after moving into the new house! March was an incredible month for our chapter. In Varsity Revue, our talented members brought The Brass Odyssey to life with Lambda Chi Alpha, earning fourth place overall along with awards for Best Female Director, Best Male Performer and Best Costume. We are so proud of the creativity, leadership and teamwork that made this production a standout event.

The event brought the community together for a good cause, with lots of whipped cream and laughter along the way! Our second philanthropy event was Hot Dogs and Halos. We had so much fun getting to raise money for Pi Beta Phi's philanthropic effort, Read > Lead > Achieve ® . One of the most meaningful moments of the semester was welcoming our newest angels and celebrating our first initiation in the new house. It was a beautiful and heartfelt weekend. In April, we opened our doors to welcome alumnae back for our ribbon- cutting celebration. It was a joy to share our beautiful new space with those who paved the way for us. As the semester wrapped up, our members were already counting down the days until we return for fall recruitment, our first in the new house! We're proud of all we accomplished this year and can't wait for what's ahead. Each of our members truly loves our new house, and it has brought us even closer. We look forward to more tandem bike rides, movie nights and making other unforgettable memories this fall.
