January 2024

Welcome to the first monthly post of the new KA Gamma Eta website. I am proud to announce that the Chapter has had a very successful start to the semester including the induction of the Spring '24 pledge class, Convivium, as well as some great brotherhood events.

Spring '24

The Brothers of Gamma Eta are excited to induct 16 new members:

Sam Brown, Davis Corbett, Ethan Farell, Grant Fortner, Brandon Gold, Heath Hendrick, Declan Higgs, Nicholas Jakubowski, Owen Jones, Dylan Klinger, Finn Magley, Spencer Martin, Brett Reed, Trey Seeker, Zach Stokes, and Patrick Wenstrup.

And a special thank you to our lovely Rose, Elizabeth Manning, for helping us induct these young men

Convivium

We kicked off this semester with our annual Convivium. We were fortunate to have Gamma Eta alumni Colby Coldiron (Spring '19) come back and open for Brown Goose Band. The night was a great success, and we thank everyone who came as well as the brothers who helped put together the event, especially our Social Chair, Everett Simpson.

Ski Trip

Just before the beginning of the spring semester some of our brothers attended the FSU Ski trip. They spent the week out in Keystone, Colorado where they'd spend the day on the mountain and find local restaurants and bars at night. Overall, it was a great week of brotherhood and adventure.

Gasparilla and FSU vs UNC

Saturday, January 27th, was a day packed full of events for the Brothers of Gamma Eta. Many brothers ventured down to Tampa to take on the annual Gasparilla parade. Meanwhile, those in Tallahassee enjoyed a day of brotherhood with meeting at Bird's, a chapter favorite, before heading to the FSU vs UNC basketball game. Although the outcome wasn't as we'd hoped, the highlight was watching Brother Ben Spangrud (Fall '21) shoot free throws at halftime.
