SPRING 2014 P H I S I G M A S I G M A LITP

Chapter excellence is all about showing headquarters what we’ve done to make our chapter the best it can be. It’s

about showing how we live out our core values and how we strive to aim high! So say hello to this newsletter - In celebration of a great spring semester,

I’ve compiled a whole bunch of things for us to be proud of. Every sister contributes something different and we

should celebrate all of our accomplishments and all that we have to offer this chapter! Also, this was a great opportunity for a CE pun (see

title). I hope you all enjoy this little letter and continue to do great things! We should all be proud to be apart of

such a great sisterhood!

Aimin’ High Since 1913

I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A RELAXING, FUN-FILLED

SUMMER!!!!
