Greeks gear up for Mr. Chi Theta pageant

By Brooke Murdock


     On Nov. 3 the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority will put on the Mr. Chi Theta pageant at 7 p.m. located in the University Center. This pageant has become a tradition among these women.
     This year each fraternity will send one representative for the pageant. A total of eight participants are projected to be involved this year. Diana Neel, philanthropy chair, is in charge of Mr. Chi Theta this year.   She expects a big turn out and much support from the other Greek chapters.
     “It means a lot to us knowing that our fellow Greeks are willing to donate money to our philanthropy,” said Neel.
     The proceeds for this event will go to the AOII philanthropy which is arthritis.
     Last year this pageant helped raise more than $1,000, and they hope to exceed this amount this year.
     “We as Greeks are serious about our philanthropies, and at the end of the day that is the main reason we decided to go Greek, to make a difference,” said Neel.
