Temple diamond marching band Marching into the Millennium The Temple University Diamond Marching Band, under the direction of Brad Townsend, performs at every home football game. The band is an important factor at football games. Not only are they enter- taining on the field, but they also keep the crowd going in the stands. The band also has a perfor- mance show for each game. There are four shows: Latin show, Home- coming Show: Temple Rocks, Wild Wild West Show, and the final show: Best of 1999, a compila- tion of the best songs. Also there are many other ac- tivities, such as Basketball Prep Band and a spring Collegiete Band. Auditions are held and a group of 29 musicians are chosen for the Tournament Band, which travels with the team and cheerleaders to the NCAA Tournament. The Band committee coor- dinates band camp activi- ties. They are also active in the organization of the Di- amand Band and keep the lines of communication open between the staff and students. Kappa Kappa Psi is the co-ed national honorary service fraternity. It has over 150 chapters throughout the USA. The frat serves in many ways as volunteers and leaders of the band. Section Leaders are selectd by the director based on musical achiev- ment, demonstrated lead- ership, and marching abili- ty.

These dedicated women were initiated at the Gamma Chap- ter at the University of Penn- sylvania. The Epsilon Delta Chapter programs and com- munity service projects are centered on the Five Point Thrust Program. From the very beginning, memebers of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated have worked hard and diligently on a local, regional, national, and inter- national level to help serve mankind while promoting higher scholarship and lead- ership. On the local level, the mem- bers of the Epsilon Delta Chapter have made great contributions to the African American community, as well as their campus com- munity. Some of the Epsilon Delta Chapter programs and community service proj- ects include: Mind, Body, and Soul, The Annual Pre- Kwanzaa Celebration, Delta Nite at the Apollo, Wom- en ' s Health Issues, Philadel- phia Cares, Homeless Gift Baskets, Black Dances, Date Rape, Voting in the Next Millenium, The Annual Gospel Extravagenza, Toys for Tots, and Halloween Candy Distribution. y DELTA SUiMA THETA SOKOKIT INCORPORATEO EI-SIION DELTA CHAI ' TER .Standing (I to r): Jamie Cole.
