The efforts raised $2,000 and were coordinated by Joe Fink '16. Theta Chi previously raised money for Joe's brother's unit in Afghanistan to buy them GPS watches. We were happy to raise money for such a great cause and one that reflected our own military background. FINALS The fall semester was extremely busy for the men of Theta Chi, but through a strong support system we were able to help each other accomplish our goals. Almost as important as study time is break time. Movies and football games at the house played a crucial role in de- stressing and proved a great way to check in with each other during finals. PHILANTHROPIES This year we continued our participation in Kappa Kappa Gamma's, Kappa Alpha Theta's, and Delta Gamma's philanthropies. Events included the Kappa's golf tournament, Theta's annual pancake breakfast, and Delta Gamma's Anchor Splash. We're thankful to all of our alumni for your support of Theta Chi and commitment to our future. When you're back at Drake, please pay us a visit.
