Hi Everyone!,
I am Juliana Shaw the new Vice President of Alumnae and Heritage. I hope that all the alumnae have been receiving information in the mail the past few weeks about the 50 year and have been going onto the link to register for the weekend. If you have yet to hear anything from the house about this event then here are the basics that everyone needs to know:
The events will run from 7 pm on Friday March 2nd until 1 pm on Sunday March 4th. All the specific details are outlined on the registration link (https://secure.www.alumniconnections.com/olc/pub/RIT/event/showEventForm.jsp?form_id=169745), including locations and specific descriptions. If you don't receive a mailing within the next few weeks, it is probably because the alumni office didn't have an updated address in their system. We have a few extra copies on hand to send out to those of you that don't receive it so just email us at asavpofalum@gmail.com to request one to be sent. The house has been busy preparing all the details of this event and are really excited to see all of you in a few short months. Below are some of the other various activities that we have been up to!
At the end of January the house held their Annual Awards Dinner at Marios Italian Restaurant. The night was filled with plenty of laughs and of course, the good company of sisters!
On February 9th, sisters took the plunge to help support Special Olympics. This year our chapter teamed up with Phi Sigma Kappa of RIT to organize and "RIT Team" that raised $8,861, which was well over the goal we set for the team. Alpha Sigma Alpha and Phi Sigma Sigma sponsored breakfast for the team before going off to the plunge. Next year the sweatshirts will be made in RIT colors, since we were the school that raised the most money!
