As everyone in the chapter is preparing for the 2005-2006 school year, I am extremely excited in the dedication I have seen from our members and the direction that our chapter is moving in.  This summer has been extremely busy preparing for the new school year and ensuring that the Delta Psi chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon at Indiana University will continue its tradition of recruiting upstanding young men and being good representatives of the Greek community in general.

Our rush team, led by Mike Morton and staffed with Chris Gatchel, Mike Geary, and Cameron Wallace, has been extremely busy contacting potential members and setting our calendar for the fall rush season.  Already, we are making steady progress in recruiting quality men who will lead the chapter in the future.

Our standards board has been working overtime to ensure that the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity will be a productive environment where everyone realizes the importance of good study habits and work ethic.   Dave Feldsott, our scholarship chair, has been busy working on a new study program which will pair older and younger brothers who share the same major.  This program will be exceptional in helping the younger members cope with new classes and a new living environment.

Every brother has been exceptional in their preparation for the upcoming year.  The amount of feedback I have received on certain topics has been nothing short of amazing and the enthusiasm is showing in everyone’s work.  I believe that this will be an amazing year for Delta Kappa Epsilon and I am extremely excited to be able to help guide the chapter to excellence.
