During my time at Get Acquainted Day, I spoke with several organizations. The first organization I spoke with was the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority. Most of the Zeta’s are currently students at Central Michigan and celebrating 11th chapter! Now this wasn’t my first time speaking with the Zeta’s, I met with these women during the IMPACT program and I also came in touch with them at Main Stage.

With the many accomplishments that has been achieved over the past year that we are proud of, many Omicron brothers are especially proud of the fact that we WON the 2015 annual Homecoming. The tradition where fraternities and sororities are paired and work together to participate in the various events, tasks, and performances that take place throughout the week.

As I was driving back home from Rohnert Park, I started thinking on a big cultural event that can we have for next semester spring 2017. When I was in high school, there was this club named Raza, they use do to a 5 de Mayo celebration with Banda/Tamborazo and food.
