Phi Sigma Nu, one of the largest and oldest fraternities at Brya t, had another eventful year of successful activities. The first event of the Fall of l945, the Smoker, was a complete success as evi- denced by the many new members received into the fraternity, The frat'ernity's first dance vvas held in the Auditorium on December l, and was another big feather in Phi Sig's cab. The annual Pledgee Formal held in conjunction with Phi Sig's sister sorority, Sigma lota Chi, at the Wannamoisett Country Club was one of the gala events of the year, in January, the fraternity held a Stag at Oates' Tavern and election of officers for the next year, and Phi Sig vvent all out to make its annual St, Patriclds Day Dance something to remember, V As the year dravvs to a close and many Phi Sig men are about to graduate and leave Bryant, the men of Phi Sig feel enriched by their many pleasant contacts and fine friendships, Once a Phi Sig, always a Phi Sig. fl Fifty-seven
