team pride The national organization of Alpha Delta Pi chose the Beta Eta chapter as one of the six in the nation to test a pilot program con- cerning internal administration. Taking effect in January with the sorority ' s officer transition, eleven positions formed the ex- ecutive body instead of the tradi- tional sixteen. This new structure formed a series of committees under these eleven executive members. This structure empha- sizes the team concept and del- egates responsibility to many ca- pable women, said outgoing president Shannon Bode. This selection was an honor for the sorority, and brought AAFl one step closer to receiving the Golden Lion, the organization ' s highest distinction for the most outstanding national chapter. Maintaining connections with alumni proved to be another key to the strength of the house. During initiation week in Novem- ber, members welcomed back Alpha Delta Pi women alumnae for a dessert reception called Pi Night. Pi Night this year was excellent. There was a record alumnae turnout. It is a wonderful opportunity to meet friends across all generations, said junior finance major Jody Meyer who served as the alumnae relations chair. Pi Night gave active members the opportunity to interact and SKYDIVING Twelve AAFI members took the big plunge and went skydiving together at the Napoleon Sky- diving Center in the fall. Wearing their letters, the women tandem jumped with an expert skydiver from the center. meet alumnae in a casual an fun setting, said junior nurs- ing major Anne Chambers.
