A Few Weeks in Pictures

Apologies for the delayed posting, we have been having some technological issues with the blog, but we are up and running again! It has been a busy few weeks, and we thought we would share a few pictures from events with everyone. Enjoy!

Congratulations to the 2011 Senior of the Year- Jensine!

Some of the Eta Pi's at Senior Initiation at the UD Iota Pi Chapter House. Sara and Jensine were initiated into the Alumnae Chapter. Congrats!

Not even rain could scare the women away from WSU Relay for Life where the women walked in honor of Ally's Army. Service Chair, Rachel, did a great job organizing all of the event!

Spring Update #1 (Apr. 4-10)

Spring Quarter is usually an extremely busy time of the year, and this week was just the beginning of it.

Friday and Saturday the women traveled to Toledo for Ohio Zeta Day. Each spring all of the Ohio collegiate and alumnae chapters gather to celebrate everything that Zeta Tau Alpha means. It also serves as a yearly award ceremony, and this year the WSU Eta Pi Chapter won 2 awards! They were awarded "Highly Commendable GPA" with a chapter cumulative GPA of 3.2. They also won the statewide service award.

The annual Parents Banquet was Sunday. This is an opportunity for parents to meet all of the sisters and see all of the work done throughout the year while enjoying a nice luncheon. A special thank you to our Parents Banquet Chair, Molly, who did a fabulous job planning the entire banquet.

Also, congratulations to our three new members, Liz, Kate, and Jessica! Welcome to Zeta! Thank you to our Vice President of Recruitment, Megan, for all of her hard work, which found us three amazing women.

This week will continue to be a busy week with lots of upcoming events! Hope everyone has a fabulous week.

Welcome to Spring Quarter! Mar. 28-Apr.3

It's officially Spring Quarter!

Over the past few weeks the women have taken their Winter Quarter finals and enjoyed a few trips together over Spring Break.

7 of the women spent a little over a week in Ireland, arriving just in time for St. Patrick's Day!

Another group headed south for a little beach fun to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina!



And finally, the majority of the Fall 2010 pledge class headed to Gatlinburg, Tennessee for a week in the mountains.

Sunday was the first official meeting of Spring Quarter and there are lots of exciting events planned for the upcoming week, including Ohio Zeta Days. Each spring Zeta Tau Alpha collegians and alumnae from all across Ohio gather and spend a day together celebrating everything that Zeta means to them. This year, it will be held in Toledo on Friday April 9 and Saturday April 10.

Parents Banquet 2011 is also coming up this week! Each spring the sisters hold a luncheon for parents and family members to see what the chapter has been up to all year and it is a really wonderful chance to everyone to meet. Check back next week for more pictures and information from the event.

We hope everyone is having a great start to the quarter and we look forward to seeing all of you at the many events this Spring.
