GW09

Well, Greek Week has begun! Last night we opened up with each chapter presenting a skit and their banner. Here are this years themes: (or at least what I think they are, I couldn't completely see everyone's skit)

Pi Kaps--Hide and Seek
SigEps--The Revolutionary War
Delts--The Finer Things in Life
Alpha Sigs--Vikings
Skulls--Skull Models (Zoolander twist)
Triangle--U-Tube
ASA--The Presentation of Man
Kappa--The Flintstones
Zippos--Superheros

The theme of each house is an exciting part of Greek Week. Often the characters and the theme carry through to each of the events. Points are gained through the winning of each event, and a winner is declared at the end of the week. This years events include:

Skit/Banner
Egg Toss (short speed toss and a long toss competition)
8-man
leg tunnel
Greek Council Meeting (higher % of chapter there = more points)
obstacle course--hurdles, high heel race, army crawl
dance off
cook off

I think that's all. Greek Week is lots of fun, and a great chance to have friendly competition. My favorite event is the dance off! The one challenge of the week is to continue to stay on top of classes even though there are lots of fun things going on. I find that going to the library is a good way to escape all the craziness on the quad and get some work done.

Also exciting today, its student government elections! Our student government is VERY active, and there are great students running for positions this year. I am enthusiastic about the next year at IIT!

Yabadabadoo!
