Gamma Gamma chapter installed at Southern Arkansas University
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Dec. 14, 2010 – Alpha Gamma Rho is proud to announce on Dec. 11, 2010 the National Fraternity of Alpha Gamma Rho installed its newest chapter, Gamma Gamma, at Southern Arkansas University (SAU) in Magnolia, Ark. The brothers of the Beta Epsilon chapter from Arkansas State University installed the newest brothers of AGR. Alumni and national representatives, including Grand President Sandy Belden, former Grand President Larry Warren, South Central Regional Vice President Cody Lane, Executive Director Phil Josephson and Chief Recruitment Officer Josh Wackler witnessed the official initiation of 19 undergraduates and 11 alumni. Dave Sanson is an SAU faculty member serving as adviser.
The process of becoming an official chapter began five years ago when six brothers recognized the need for an agricultural fraternity at Southern Arkansas University’s campus. In 2007 a colony was installed, and since the brothers have worked diligently to become more active on campus and in their community, honoring the Fraternity’s values with every step. They have involved themselves with highway and neighborhood cleanups, the Angel Christmas Tree program and have raised funds for Race for the Cure. Brothers have served in leadership positions on campus including the President’s Ambassadors, Business Student Advisory Council, Resident Assistant and various agricultural groups on campus, and they have also worked to increase their involvement in activities with other AGR chapters through leadership seminars and retreats.
Congratulations to all those who have played a role in the success of the brothers at Southern Arkansas University. Persistence, hard work, determination and commitment have made the goals of these men a reality. With the guidance of their advisers, the support of alumni and the continued enthusiasm of the members, the Gamma Gamma chapter at Southern Arkansas University expected to thrive for years to come.
