We're striving for a chapter GPA of 3.33, which will hopefully move our chapter into second place in grades among fraternities. We also plan to extend the previous year's goal of no risk reduction violations, which our house held true to in the past year. We are also striving to be top on The Hill out of fraternities for philanthropic achievements. Lastly, we are proud to announce that our website has been reconstructed. Please take a couple of minutes to take a look at the new website at KansasSigmaNu.com. Upcoming Events Nu Chapter has a lot of activities on the calendar, ranging from brotherhood to philanthropy. First, our Wichita recruitment event was March 8. The recruitment committee would also like to hold an open house for all potential new members and their families sometime during the spring semester. We plan to continue working with the Cottonwood Foundation, Lawrence Memorial Hospital, Natural Ties, and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lawrence. We also have brothers volunteering at the Lawrence Memorial Hospital Hearts of Gold Ball and hope to get an even bigger turnout at our basketball tournament benefiting Seth Rogan's Hilarity for Charity. A couple of members have also expressed interest in working with Wounded Warrior Project, and we hope that we can schedule an event with them. As always, we will contribute to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The chapter is also looking forward to the third annual crawfish boil brotherhood event.
