Fraternal Organizations The 79180 Blar'k and Latin Student Union btiilt on last years' attempts at reorganization of their structure and more new activities, Over the year, trips to local establishments, where Siena minority students could interaet with minority students from other colleges were made, as well as an intereollege basketball tournament. In an effort to better inform students about minorities an attempt was made to publish supplements in The INDIAN. This was turned down by the editorial board due to its precedent setting nature with other organizations. In addition, the Senate tried to help the BLSU integrate into the eampus Community by voting to insure minority representation on the four Cultural vommittees. Some heated discussion on this policy took place at the Senate meeting but subsided after it was decided this was a short term solution subject to review by future senates. The Secular Franciscans are a small but diverse group of lay students whose purpose is to emulate the life of St. Francis. The objectives of the group are to further their Christian development and growth through community service, exploration of the life of St. Francis and group sponsored prayer service, On cold dark nights one fan see the Grand Poobah galleyanting across r'ampus followed by his young christian legions on their way to do some generous service, and then to nickel drafts down in 'yliet. This year's poohbah was Grand Knight Tom Murphy a very serious and trompetent individual, Through his service, Tom helped foster a 20096 increase in membership for this year alone. Another of his worthy accomplishments was the formation of a women's Columbiette organization Foremost in the Knights activities this year was the commemorative dinner in honor of the late Jim Walsh '79. At the dinner, the Siena Council officially Changed their name to the lames M. Walsh Memorial Council 1H1909. The campus also has several Fraternities: The Red frat tTheta Phi Omega, Green frat tKappa Omega Ps0, Business frat tDeIti Sigma Pit and the Girl's frat tDelta Sigma Vt, The four brotherhoods serve basically as social organizations for their members. Delta Sigma V, named for its founder Veronica Mickalonis was created last spring by the girls of 2W Hennepin and was just t'hartered last fall. It must be noted that this is a fraternity, not a sorority. Some students may have notitred the unusual pledge pin that some girls were wearing last fall during the initiation period - a safety pin, Delta Sigma Pi t'tThe Professional Business Fraternity'j not only serves the social needs of its members but, in addition, has brought in several speakers to lecture on various aspects of business and sponsored trips to local businesses for its members. Fraternal organizations play an important role in the life of many students here at Siena. The work that these student groups accomplish throughout the year for the good of both the Siena and Capital Distrirrt mmmunity is definitely appreciated. 3O BLSU: R. '1; A. Morris-Sutton, C.
