INDIANA GAMMA WINS CONSECUTIVE HOMECOMING COMPETITION T he Indiana Gamma Chapter of Phi Delta Theta and the women of Delta Delta Delta won Butler University's Homecom- ing competition on Saturday, September 26. This is the second year in a row that Indiana Gamma has won the competition. The overall theme for the celebration was cartoons, and our Chapter selected Scooby Doo. We competed in numerous activi- ties, which included, "Yell like Hell," a lip sync competition with the addition of Butler-themed cheers, lawn decorations, and a parade. Our team won lip-sync and placed in both lawn decorations and the parade. Another Homecoming festivity is the annual Chariot race, which Indiana Gamma has not lost since our refounding. This year was no exception as the Chapter claimed another victory. Finally, Indiana Gamma's Drew Horn '16 was named Homecoming King. This is the first time a Phi Delt has won since the Chap- ter's refounding in 2008. All of the place- ments and victories added up to a Phi Delta Theta Homecoming win!
