On behalf of the National Council, I am proud to announce the successful chartering and installation of the Xi Gamma chapter at Cleveland State University on Sunday, January 30th! The process started at the beginning of last semester with a petitioning group of twenty-three band members, led by Maddie Baldwin and with the support of their Director of Bands, Dr. Birch Browning.
This process would not have been possible without the help of our amazing Advising Team. This group was led by NCD Governors, Marc Reanud and Michelle Banis and consisted of three additional advisors. Thank you to these Brothers for their guidance and leadership in this process. We are deeply grateful for their service and support.
- Akilah Thomas, Past NCD VPM (Beta Kappa)
- Viet Nguyen, Past NCD VPM (Eta)
- Jack Gornick, Past NCD President (Alpha Zeta)
We would like to extend our appreciation to the Iota Lambda chapter at the University of Mount Union for providing Ritual supplies for the installation.
Lastly, we would like to give thanks to the several chapters that made the trip to support the installation of the Xi Gamma chapter. It was extremely heartwarming to see everyone come together to welcome our new Brothers. Thank you to the following chapters:
- Beta Kappa (Bowling Green State University)
- Beta Psi (Kent State University)
- Zeta Omicron (University of Akron)
Charter members include: Alex Mckenzie Mullenex, Allison Marie Alston, Amanda Johancen, Benjamin Jurecki, Citlali Moreno, Cruz Moreno, Dana Tonkinson, Daniel Kywa, Jessica Spore, Joseph Adam Fletcher, Julia Christina Bellisario, Kaitlin Borsch , Kyle Zeitz, Lauren Sandra Hinkle, Madison Skye Baldwin, Michael Dontenville, Michael McCann, Mollee Rose Ryan, Nicole Dolansky, Susan Pack, Victoria Rose Uhase, Vincent Marvaldi, Zachary Villard, Dr. Trevor Kimbrall Marcho, and Dr. Birch Patterson Browning.
