Some alumni have expressed interest in re-colonizing Theta Xi at WIU. We would like to establish a committee of volunteers to outline a plan detailing how this might happen (i. e. recruiting new members, finding advisers, costs, timeline, etc.). Seven guys have volunteered to help with this committee. Ernie Blomquist is currently looking for a chairman.
