. . . 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. Other events which the Phi Zete brothers remember are the annual spaghetti dinner and the Pilgrimage in the Spring quarter when the actives and alumni retrace the steps of the original nine members of Phi Zeta Tau in Chicago’s loop. PZT seeks to provide an opportunity for social expres¬ sion on the part of its members; to afford the close intimate fellowship of a type that comes with the fraternity experience. Phi Zeta Tau’s officers for the current year are Dennis Ottosen, president; Lyman Curtis, vice president; Ron Cline, secretary; Rodd Gleeson, treasurer; Don Greer, corresponding secretary.
