1/18/08 - 1/21/08 :: LSU Chapter to attend Delta Chi A's Academy

::Leadership academy for all Delta Chi Chapter Presidents throughout North America::

The Delta Chi Fraternity is proud to host the third annual Delta Chi "A"s' Academy to be held January 18-21, 2008 in St. Meinrad, IN. This Academy will provide our "A"s' with the skills necessary to lead their chapters and colonies and develop themselves more as officers.

With all 127 "A"s' in attendance and an all-star team of faculty members, this will be a unique opportunity for chapter "A"s' to network with peers, advisor and the Fraternity staff.

To ensure all "A"s' attend and get the most out of the Academy, the Fraternity Headquarters is covering all registration, lodging and meal fees and will compensate travel expenses. We want every "A"s' to be able to say, when his term is complete, "I was the best "A" I could have been, and my chapter is better because of it."

Many of the attendees from previous Academies reported a significant increase in leadership and organization skills, project implementation abilities and a general reenergizing towards their office. The program continues to improve and better results are expected from the third Academy.

10/6/07 - 10/7/07 :: Founders's Day 2007

:: 25th Anniversary of the 1982 Founding Father Class::

Founder's Day is a celebration of the founding of The Delta Chi Fraternity on October 13, 1890. It is held annually at each chapter around the nation in order to bring brothers back to their initiating/associative chapters and reforge bonds.

During the first weekend in October, The LSU Chapter hosted its second Founder's Day since the refounding of the Chapter in 2005, and what a weekend.

LSU Football unanimous #1 and a chance to recognize the 25th Anniversary of the 1982 Founding Fathers that brought Delta Chi back to campus after a 30 year absence. We had a great tailgate on Saturday and thanks to all who attended.

Sunday we celebrated Founders Day and we were privileged to have a special guest, the Louisiana Attorney General, Charles C. Foti, who gave a brief talk about brotherhood. The Attorney General was a Founding Father of another fraternity at UNO years ago. He also recalls the challenges and the rewards of brotherhood.

Our keynote speaker was the 1982 Chapter Chartering Chairman, Mitchell Evans.

Special thanks to Mitchel and David Whaley who came and represented the original 44 young men of the 1982 class.
