ΣΤΓ -- Sigma Tau Gamma, It's GREEK to me!

2009-11-12T19:35:00.005-06:00

Hey everyone! Its me again, but this time, I need to clear up some confusion! =S

The past couple weeks, as RSU's GREEK blogger, I have focused on Alpha Sigma Tau and Alpha Sigma Alpha (two sororities) and Pi Kappa Alpha (a fraternity). However, I have some good news-- the Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity (STG) is an active GREEK colony on campus! So now, I have another fraternity to talk about!!

Recently...It was to my understanding that The STG's were not an organization through RSU's Student Government Association, but just this past week I was informed that they are. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding BUT I can't wait to talk about STG and about all of the AWESOME things they have been doing on campus!

The Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity is a mens social fraternity that was established back in 1920,
and has been growing ever since! You can check out their national website....

http://www.sigmataugamma.org/

Alright.... so earlier you might have been wondering why I called The Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity on the RSU campus a"Colony" ..... It's because it is a new GREEK organization on this campus! Exciting, right?! =)

Being a colony is one of the most amazing experiences, because it means that the people that get involved in the beginnging get to make the rules, set up the basics (budget, constitution, etc.), and get to start all of the traditions for the STG fraternity of RSU to follow for years and years to come!

The fraternity is now actively looking for "founding members" of the fraternity, so if you're interested in the smallest bit I do encourage you to check out the fraternity and see what STG has to offer you!

The STG's have been qiute busy on the RSU campus as well as Nationally! The STG's recently hosted -along with the Student Art Association- the Halloween Dance, which raised over 85lbs of food for local food pantries! In the Spring of 2009 they received SIFE's recycling award! Last week the STG's were in the RSU Homecoming Shopping Cart Parade, and are now raising money for their members by selling candy bars on campus!

Also you should look forward to their upcoming event, scheuled for early December! Its going to be at the King of Clubs in downtown claremore -- its going to be a Food/Toy Drive, and it is going to be a BENEFIT CONCERT! FUN! =)
The STG's meet on Wednesdays @ 7:15 in the 2nd floor of the library! So if you would like to see a little bit more about what they do

If you are interestedin joining or would like more information about GREEK life, please visit the RSU website or contact the RSU Greek Advisor, BJ Armstrong!

Did you know...

2009-10-08T10:49:00.012-05:00

.....that RSU has a GREEK LIFE?!
That's right, RSU has SORORITIES and FRATERNITIES!!

Ha, well--before I get to all of that I would love to introduce

myself--- My name is Paula Blalock, and I'm a senior student here at RSU! =) I graduated in 2006 from Pryor High School in little Pryor Creek Oklahoma, and came here to get my degree in Business Marketing.
If you haven't guessed by now, I'm the lucky student that gets to BLOG about RSU GREEK LIFE! =)

Let me start off by saying that I'm sooooo pumped about being RSU's next blogger, and I cant wait to tell you EVERYTHING about what GREEK life at RSU has to offer you! =)

Alright... so what do you think of when you hear the words "sorority" and "fraternity?" Most people would agree that they are just a bunch of crazy college kids that get together, party, skip class, and do insane stuff like eating toothpaste or having to run across campus naked (just a few of the things people say when I ask them that, haha)
However, GREEK life at RSU is none of the above!
Sure, we like to have a good time, but no way----we definitely don't make you eat anything gross!

RSU has 2 sororities Alpha Sigma Tau (A∑T) and Alpha Sigma Alpha (A∑A). Both sororities are made up of wonderful women, and Ill talk a lot more about them in future blogs! =)

RSU also has 1 fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha (PKA). There's lots of really cool guys in PIKE, and they're always hosting lots of cool events and banquets!
--a girls gotta love a college banquet.... you get to get all dressed up and go to a fancy dinner... its like an adult prom, without all the drama!--

Well, now that you know that RSU even has a GREEK life system, lets hear some feedback! What do you want to know? Do you have any questions or comments? Things you would like to see on the GREEK life blog?

......or better yet, would you like to join GREEK life?!?
Well, if you do, send me a comment, or call or shoot an email to BJ Armstrong over in the Student Affairs office in the Union.... he'll put you on the right track to GOING GREEK! =)
barmstrong@rsu.edu or 918.343.7579

Soooo... it looks like you might just have the basics down! Ill continue writing about RSU's GREEK LIFE here on the blog, and Ill always try to give you a heads up on information about upcoming events!

Hope to hear back from you!

Paula
