Who’s Who: The Chapters Behind Their Letters

Joining a sorority was never on my list of things to do. The intensity of formal recruitment intimidated me and the number of chapters on campus was terrifying.

UPUA Passes Legislation, Despite Bureaucratic Struggles

Last night's University Park Undergraduate Association was a tough one to sit through. The end result of it was productive but we should have been out of there a lot sooner.
