I have learned how to live bv the values on a daily basis and reach out to the community in need by participating in countless philanthropic events. In addition to raising money for their own philanthropy, Tri Sigma had continually donated time, money and efforts to other Greek philanthropies including Alpha Tau Omega ' s Rock For R.A.K, Alpha Kappa Lambda ' s Turkey Trot, Delta Gamma ' s Anchorsplash, Delta Delta Delta ' s Triple Plav, and Greek Week Greek Sing. Members of the Alpha Upsilon chapter were also involved on campus in organizations such as Panhellenic Council, Student Ambassadors, The Bluestones, SMAD Club, Operation Smile, Relay For Lite, Club Gymnastics, Habitat For Humanity and Public Relations Student Society of America. Their national vision was comprised of five pillars: partnerships with the foundation, be fiscally strong, be a chapter growth leader, increase alumnae involvement, and develop nationally recognized programming. Tri Sigma means more to me than words can describe and has enhanced my college years to the fullest, I could not be more proud to be a member of Sigma Sigma Sigma, ' said Brown. } Front Row: Corinne Bombowsky, Jenna Alley, Lauren Dill, Alyssa McCarron, Carina Fleming, Shruti Mittra, Alexandra De France, Megan Hasper, Elena Ugenti, Samantha Tingle, Claire Maguire, Lindsey Imperioli.

The event was part od a month long educational series for the sorority ' s philanthrophy. photo courtesy {sigma sigma sigma by Justine howell {writer} igma Sigma Sigma, also known as k Tri Sigma, was founded by Margaret H Batten, Louise Davids, Martha B I Trent Featherston, Isabella Merrick, I Sallie Mitchie, Lelia Scon, Elizabeth B Watkins and Lucy Wright at the State Female Normal School in Farmville, Virginia (now Longwood University). It was officially founded on April 20, 1898. The national sorority sent out a magazine to all members called The Triangle of Sigma Sigma Sigma three times every vear. The magazine ' s name was appropriately related to Tri Sigma ' s badge called the Triangle Degree: a triangle with sigmas in each corner, and a skull and crossed bones in the center. The sororitv adopted the sailboat as its s Tnbol to represent continual forward motion, and the official flower was the purple violet. Accordingly Sigma Sigma Sigma ' s colors were royal purple and white. The jewel thev claimed was the pearl, and their coat ot arms was uniquelv one designed bv Harriet Hankins Alpha in 1902.

{ ?0I1 } ICE HOCKEY by mary claire Jones (writer} or any club team, one of the biggest challenges was rinding a practice time conducive to everyone ' s schedules. The university ' s club ice hockey team, however, managed to find a rather unorthodox solution to this problem. We practice once a week on Wednesdays, said team captain, junior Andrew LeClair. From 11:30 to 12:30 at night. This, compounded with the fact that the team practiced at a rink in Charlottesville, meant that, even though it was only one night a week, being a member of the ice hockey team was quite a commitment. UVA has both a women ' s and men ' s club ice hockey team so they get priority of ice time, said team founder, senior Margaret Emery. But despite all of this, the team roster more than tripled in the past three years. We started with seven members the first year, but we ' re up to 28 now, said LeClair. The team started three years ago, thanks to a huge effort on Emery ' s part. The process of getting the team started was difficult, and required a lot of jumping through hoops, but Emery was unfazed. With JMU having my major but not an ice hockey team, I decided I was going to form a team, said Emery. It took [UREC Club Sports director] Chris Jones and myself working together [for about eight months] for the team to get passed through JMU and Club Sports. The team also became a member of the Blue Ridge Hockey Conference, and had a schedule of 10 conference games against schools such as William Man ' , Radford University, George Mason University and Northern Virginia Community College, as well as two out-of-conference games with the University of Virginia and the University of Maryland. There was a lot of emailing university ice hockey programs, directors of the American Collegiate Hockey Association and Blue Ridge Hockey Conference, and calling people up to ask questions, said Emery. LeClair, who was elected as team captain his freshman year, explained that despite the growth the team had seen over recent years, he still felt close to all his teammates. The camaraderie we have is unbelievable, said LeClair. It ' s a great group of guys. . . we enjoy playing together. Emery was also quick to identify the team ' s tight-knit mindset as a favorite part. It ' s amazing to see the players grow from year to year, said Emery. And to see the determination, intensity, and love for the game all the bovs have [is really rewarding], said Emery. LeClair also highlighted the growth in the team ' s performance as a bragging point. It ' s cool to think that we went from a team of seven who was losing by 15 goals to, three years later, making the playoffs, said LeClair. ] Sophomore John Capenhaver skates toward the net in hopes of earning a point for his team. The club team played in the Atlantic Division of the Blue Ridge Hockey Conference, which ranged from Virginia to North Carolina. photo courtesy (breeze 25 { Club Ice Hockey
