Our chapter is pleased to announce
that we achieved the
highest grade point average
among all chapters at UNM
for the fall semester of 1997.
The spring of 1998 was
equally as promising.
We are also increasing our
community service activities.
Some of our major activities
include a bowl-a-thon benefiting
Big Brothers and Big
Sisters, a blood drive benefiting
United Blood Services,
and a tractor pull benefiting
the Spedal Olympics in which
20 members will pull a
100,000 lb. tractor.
The active chapter would
like to thank Brother Tucker
Coughlen for his efforts in
organizing Lobo Phifest, and
our president. Max Kagan,
whose continual contributions
to the chapter and the
Greek community have led
him to be recognized as the
1997 Greek Man of the Year.
Re-foimding fathers Joe
Edward and Mike Woolsey
are planning a celebration for
the Spring of 1999 to commemorate
the ten-year anni-
versary of the re-founding of
New Mexico Alpha.

After a summer of aimual
activities including the
Alumni/Active Golf Outing
and white-water rafting trip,
the brothers of Ohio Eta entered
the fall semester needing
to replenish numbers after
a large and highly successfiil
graduating class. This goal
was met with the introduction
of a class of 12 Phikeias to
our chapter. These scholars,
athletes and gentlemen will
have the honor of leading this
chapter into the 21st century.
With their help we enter a
busy semester of scholastics,
community service and athletics.
