Commander's Corner
February 13, 2024
Dear Faithful and Honorable Alumni of Eta Zeta,
My name is Cooper Walsworth, HZ 1432. I am the current Commander for our Eta Zeta Chapter. This article will let you all know of the fun and important things that have been happening in the chapter since Ty's last article in October.
As Ty previously wrote, the chapter did great this year during rush once again. With 55 new candidates, we were ready to hit the ground running all of fall quarter. We started with exchanges with the lovely ladies of Sigma Kappa and Kappa Delta. After that, the pledge class of '23 raised $2000 at our annual St. Jude's Car Wash. It was great to see PC 23 continuing our traditions.
Winter quarter seems to always be a little slower for the chapter as well as everyone else that goes to Tech. However, we stayed as busy as we could! Over Thanksgiving we had brothers doing all kinds of fun things like skiing and duck hunting. When we returned to campus, the brothers of Eta Zeta came together to donate toys to the Louisiana Methodist Children's Home for our annual Christmas Philanthropy. It was a great way to start off a long quarter!
Starting off the new year, my Lt. Commander, Josh Whitton, and I took the annual trip up to Roanoke, Virginia for Sigma Nu's College of Chapters. There, we learned about how to successfully lead and delegate our chapter, along with learning about the rich history of Sigma Nu at headquarters. I highly recommend going for any of you that have not! A couple of weeks later, we had a group of our candidates go active and take officer positions in the chapter. We are super excited to get these new guys involved and can't wait to see what they will bring to the table! Starting out this month, Alumni Commander Mr. Jason Smith took our scholars out to eat at Roma Italian here in Ruston at the quarterly 4.0 dinner. Good job guys and thank you Mr. Jason! That same week, we had four brothers volunteer for 'Night to Shine' which is a prom for special needs kids and is hosted on Tech campus.
I hope this article has been an entertaining as well as informative read! I hope you all are looking forward to my next article in October, discussing our super busy spring quarter that we have planned, as long as the results from rush! On top of that, I hope you all are also excited as we start this new year with such a large and eager chapter. As Ty stated in October, we are continuing to push a reconnection with alumni. We would love your input as well as wanting you all to continue to make Eta Zeta a part of your lives!
Below is the recently elected Executive Council! Reach out to me or any of us if you ever need to, we will be happy to help!
Fraternally,
Cooper Walsworth, HZ 1432
