Hello, My name is John Crupie. As the current President of the Gamma Tau chapter of Phi Gamma Delta, I would like to welcome you and encourage you to learn more about our brotherhood.

FIJI has maintained a standard of excellence at Georgia Tech since our inception in 1926. This remains true today, as Gamma Tau is recognized on campus as a leader among fraternities. In 2007, the chapter was awarded the Dean Dull Trophy as the best fraternity on campus by the Interfraternity Council. Our achievements are consistenly recognized by the International Fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta with awards including, most recently, the Jordan Bowl for highest comparative scholarship among undergraduate chapters. In 2006, Gamma Tau took home three of Phi Gamma Delta's seven major awards for undergraduate chapters.

On campus, Gamma Tau is known to excel in all aspects of student life. Academically, the chapter consistently ranks above Georgia Tech's all-men's average GPA, doing so the past 25 years. On the athletic fields, FIJIs are second to none, taking home the Interfraternity Athletic Trophy 10 out of the past 11 years. With 3 School Championships in 2008, Gamma Tau has built a strong lead in this year's standings and looks to again take home the award in 2009. The chapter has produced leaders of numerous campus organizations, including FASET, Student Government Association, the Interfraternity Council, and the Georgia Tech Student Foundation. Finally, Gamma Tau maintains an outstanding philanthropy program. Our Habitat for Humanity fall break trip and the FIJI Run for the Kids are our largest annual philanthropic events. This fall break, Gamma Tau brought more than 80 brothers and guests to Tampa for a 3-day project with Habitat for Humanity. Our 2nd Annual Fiji Run for the Kids was an overwhelming success, raising nearly $20,000 with donations still pouring in. In the past two years, the event has raised over $60,000 directly benefitting Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.

In closing, I would like to personally invite you to visit and explore our chapter. I encourage Graduate Brothers and Parents to get involved with Gamma Tau. You are always welcome at Creighton-Vail Hall and your interest is greatly appreciated. Please check the website for updates and any upcoming events. I encourage all prospective members to seek all that Gamma Tau has to offer. I hope that our brotherhood and our traditions will positively impact your life and enrich your college career.

Sincerely,
John Crupie '09
