The Illinois State Community couldn’t help but notice the Sigmas STORMING campus with their
incredible programming. Here are some highlights in case you missed out on any of the fun.
Google
Hangoutreach
TUESDAY
10
This event was held in Old Main. Daniel Jackson, who is ISU’s
first Google Student Ambassador collaborated with Google
engineers and Googlers to present on how to get a job at
Google, resume tips, job interview tips, and Computer
Science academic plans to the students at ISU .
This was a way to help students in the computer science major
and other students get their foot in the door with google for an
internship. They had representatives of Google speak over
Google Hangouts. The intended goal of the program was to
inform Computer Science majors how to get opportunities
with Google. This event allowed for students to get a personal
side of Google engineers and Googlers as well as ask them
questions about their work.
FRIDAY

Blue Icebreaker: drunk driving awareness
The fall semester here at Illinois
State University is coming to its
Goodbye 2015 exec!
end and with that comes the
transitioning of officers. To Allie, Amanda, Lily, Haley, Marina, Nikki, and Rachel, y’all made my first
semester here at ISU a memorable one, from the long nights during recruitment to our final meeting; it
was always an enjoyable time. I have asked a lot of y’all and every time y’all came through, but I’ve got
one more task that I need completed. I ask that you remember the work that you did for CPC, the
impact you made on me, the week of training with the Rho Gammas, the women that went through
recruitment, the conversations with the sorority women, the fun, the work, any other memories that
make you think of your time on CPC and smile. Good luck with next semester and thank you again!
This educational event was co-hosted
with the women of Sigma Gamma
Rho Sorority, Inc. to promote
alcohol awareness. In an educational
simulation, students placed darkened
googles on and were invited to play
musical chairs. This was not only
engaging but it was great way to
provide them with new knowledge.
The intended goal of the program
was to show people how hard it is to
function under heavy intoxication
and give them tools to learn and
asses their limits safely.
With the end of the semester we
have new faces in old positions.
Welcome 2016 exec!
We would like to welcome the
new officers of the College Panhellenic Council: Olivia, Haley, Gabrielle, Mackenzie, Mia, Meghan,
and Maggie. I look forward to seeing how you make these positions your own and building upon the
foundation that was laid out by the previous board. Rest up during winter break because once next
semester begins we are going to roll up our sleeves and get to work to better CPC, our
Greek Community, and Illinois State University.

Showtime at the apollo
This event was created to raise money for a student at Illinois State who has kidney
cancer; due to health reasons she has since had to withdraw from school. As a
community it was important to show to show her that we support her and will continue to live her sweet legacy at ISU.
The Apollo show provided an audience with a diverse set of talents
ranging from solos to magic tricks. Students had the discretion to vote for their
favorite performance; performers had a minute to make the audience boo or cheer
for them. Throughout the Apollo the student body and donors learned about the
severity of kidney cancer.

“Delta Sigma Theta... Don’t call it a comeback”
“MGC Comes together”
By: Yesenia Garcia, Graduate Assistant, Fraternity & Sorority Life
By: Elizabeth Nunez, Multicultural Greek Council Public Relations
On Friday, November 13th the
Multicultural Greek Council (MGC)
held a team building social to unify all
the organizations.
As this council continues to grow one of
our goals is to become unified and show
the campus that we are here and all the
hard work we do. Next semester we
have a lot of events planned and hope all
of the Greek community will come out
and show support.
The Multicultural Greek Council was
established in 2013 and has grown to be
the governing organization for 8
culturally founded fraternities and
sororities.
Stay tuned to see what MGC has in store
for the Illinois State University fraternal
community.
After a long wait, the Theta Delta Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated will be
presenting their newest initiates to the Illinois State University fraternal community. Don’t miss out on
a chance to welcome the first neophytes since Fall 2012!
“Happy Swanniversary!”
By: Yesenia Garcia, Graduate Assistant, Fraternity & Sorority Life
Fraternity and Sorority Life would like
to wish the Beta Line, 3 STYLAR of
Gamma Phi Omega International
Sorority, Inc. a Happy “Swanniversary”!
On December 1, 2014 these three
women were initiated into their
sisterhood. In the past year, they’ve
created a major difference on campus
and it hasn’t gone unnoticed.
One year of sisterhood down, a lifetime to go!
