Congratulations to brother Eli Maricich for performing in Zeta Tau Alpha’s Big Man on Campus (BMOC) talent show this past weekend. BMOC is a fundraiser for Zeta Tau Alpha’s philanthropy of breast cancer awareness and research, and almost every fraternity on campus participates and performs. Eli, who was inspired to perform by his grandparents, sang and played the piano to “Hallelujah,” which earned him 2nd best act in the competition. Overall, BMOC 2019 raised over $109,000 towards the fight to end breast cancer. Thank you Eli for your dedication towards a great cause!
Thank you to the alumni and parents who helped us update the house on house improvement day in January! Some accomplishments of that day include restoring the foyer tiles, deep cleaning the bathrooms and kitchen, stripping and waxing the chapter room floor, painting the hallway walls, and adding new furniture to the formal. The house looks fantastic, thanks for everyone’s hard work!
The Brother of the Year award is voted on by the active chapter every December, and distinguishes one brother who has made a profound impact on both the chapter as a whole and each brother individually. The Triangle Brother of the Year 2018 is Henry Cushing. Henry served as communications director this past year, and assisted about every other director with their duties as well. A truly caring brother, Henry treats everyone he meets with respect and dignity, and often helps other brothers in times of need. Henry lives out the true meaning of brotherhood, which is why he is deserving of this great award. Congratulations Henry, and thank you for service to Triangle and our brotherhood in 2018.
Congratulations to our new board of directors, and best of luck in your respective positions!
This past weekend the chapter elected its new executive board, including the Membership, Internal, and External Vice Presidents and the chapter President. We hope to see these leaders bring new ideas, perspectives, and talents to the chapter to advance our great brotherhood even further. Congratulations to our new executive board members!
On Saturday August 25th, active brothers and alumni teamed up to work on the house as part of house improvement day. Projects completed include painting the dumpster fence, improving the finish on our dining room tables, scrubbing the first floor, and adding mulch to our side landscaping. Thank you to the alumni who helped out, and to the brothers for putting in hard work that weekend!
