The Broncs, however, were determined to sta season off on a winning note and came on strong second half to whip the Dutchmen, 79-73.

by Steve Yambor, Delta Sig Brother of the Year Delta Sigma Pi. To some just another organization at Rider and, to others, only another Greek Fraternity. But to its members and to the entire School of Business, Delta Sigma Pi signifies something more important. For one, it is the oldest Greek organization at Rider. For another, and most important, Delta Sigma Pi was established to foster the study of business. Membership is open to all male students in the School of Business Administration having a grade point average of 2.5 or better. lt makes no difference whether the members ma- jor in Accounting, Economics, Finance, Industrial Rela- tions, Insurance, Management or Marketing. What is im- portant is that in Delta Sigma Pi, all members come together to share the many experiences that college has to offer-professionally as well as socially. Delta Sigma Pi, as a professional fraternity, is able to satisfy the needs of its brothers by providing ex- periences in basically two areas: in professionalism, which is an intellectual experience not found in any other type of fraternity, and in brotherhood, those ex- periences in social activities and in the common feeling of oneness between members. The first function of Delta Sigma Pi is to promote an intellectual experience that will benefit each brother in his understanding of business. This professionalism es- tablishes standards of excellence, rules of conduct, a sense of responsibility to occupy a position of dignity and social standing in the community. An intellectual experience, however, must be more than an attitudeg it must be moved to action. Through a professional program, a member has the opportunity to become acquainted with men of commerce who have experienced the reality of the business world. Moreover, the professional manner in which each member con- ducts himself serves to improve his status in the college community as well as to increase his readiness for a profession. In Delta Sigma Pi the social life is equally important, for it helps to bring the members closer together so as to make experiences more meaningful. Be it an initiation party, a roller skating party, or just eating together in the caf, friendship serves to unite the members and creates a desire to help serve the aims of the fraternity. As a brother of Delta Sigma Pi, one's college life changes a new world opens up-one of friendship, ideals, responsibilities and fortunes. When one men- tions Delta Sigma Pi, he refers to men of commerce who strive for a better understanding of the business world, friends who are willing to give from their store of good fellowship to help fellow men and borthers, united by a profession, who combine the qualities of men and friends. ii
