Card Incomplete
President Barrett announced at
the meeting that membership cards
would be distributed to the members of the frat at a meeting on
some future date. Because the date
of the affair had been changed several timed, due to other campus
activities, the cards had not been
completed.
The entire affair was run in a
typical Vilanova manner, and reflected the best of pr«-wa.r traditions of the school and frat. It also
served to give notice to all concerned that the Delta Pi Epsiion Fraternity is once again an active organization, and will take its place
among the leaders in extra-curricular acUvities at this institution.
New
Strength
With the
influx of returning veterans to the college the business
school is slowly returning to the
former vigor and strength of peacetime behavior. With the new increase it is expected that in the
near future, more affairs will, bear
the sponsorship of the business
school fraternity.
