Career and Debate Night

Posted in:Newson April 6th, 2010

Career and debate night is a night for Alumni and actives to get together and bridge the gap. In that sense it was a huge success. We had an awesome showing of upwards of 20 alumni with about the same number of actives. Started off with some appies and a rousing bout of the classic Alpha Delt songs followed by several alumni who spoke on life after school and what Alpha Delta Phi means to them. From there we moved on to the debates, which were lively and entertaining, concluding with a heated debate on Blondes vs. Brunettes, which is better and why. Thanks to all the Alumni and active brothers who came out and made this event a huge success.

Keep an eye out more up coming alumni events, namely alumni sports day held in the summer.
