Chapter Notes

Hey everyone,
Our next Phi Alpha Theta, Epsilon Pi chapter meeting will take place on Tuesday, April 7 from 5-6:30 pm in LeConte (room number to follow).  We will be hearing from Steve Nash regarding gender relations in the Civil War through the interesting story of a teenage girl's interaction with Confederate soldiers and how it affected their loyalty to the South.  Afterwards we will watch some memorable clips from Gone With the Wind and there will be time for discussion and questions.  There will be free pizza and the talk should be very entertaining and interesting, so please try to make it out for any or all of the meeting!  Friends and those who are not members of Phi Alpha Theta but who would like to come are welcome to join us.  If our membership certificates have come in at this time, we will be distributing them at the meeting.  Please let me know if you have any questions, and hope to see you all there!
Thanks,
Taylor Rhodes
