PHI GAMMA DELTA At the last Ekklesia of The Fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta, held in September, 1950, at Atlantic City, New Jersey, a charter was granted to the former Beta Phi Fraternity. Beta Phi, founded in 1910, the third oldest fraternity at Rhode Island State College, had as its original home the old Watson house. In 1913, it built the first fraternity house on the campus, and in 1932, built and occupied its present quarters. The Kappa Rho chapter was installed on December 9, 1950, be- coming the eighty-first chapter of Phi Gamma Delta. The newest group of ' Fijis’’ are fully aware of the high standards and traditions of the fraternity and are united in their desire to be second to none in upholding and forwarding these traditions in the years to come. 22

rrrrrf SIGMA CHI The Delta Sigma Chapter of Sigma Chi evolved naturally from the ever growing local Delta Alpha Psi which began in 1910. Even as a young chapter in the international fraternity, it has made traditional at Rhody the Sweetheart Formal at which the chapter ' s sweet- heart is crowned and serenaded with the “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi. The annual Sigma Chi Derby, a maze of humorous and trying athletic field events for the girls is also a campus favorite. Here the girls compete as housing units for the individual medals and final team award, the Bronze Derby. The fraternity furthers the interests of scholarship under a well planned system. Sigma Chi seeks to instill in its members the spirit of cooperation and the ability to assume and carry out responsibilities. Athletic and social programs help round out the factors the fraternity hopes will make better citizens. 24
