. . . spirit, New Faces, spaghetti dinner Phi Zeta Tau, George Williams College’s largest frater¬ nity is much in evidence at nearly every function and activity of the college. The purple and white jackets and T-shirts of the Phi Zetes seen around the campus are a constant reminder of the pride of the brothers in their fraternity. “New faces” the Phi Zete new men’s party has tradi¬ tionally been a most entertaining event.
