Greek Weekend is hosted by the Pratt I.G.C. (Inter-Greek Council)

Friday, April 17th


Each Greek organization raised money for Multiple Sclerosis during Pratt's Springfest. The Pi Sigma Chi Fraternity held a 50/50 Raffle, the Kappa Sigma Fraternity sold T-shirts, the Theta Phi Alpha Sorority had a Bake Sale, and the Tri Sigma Sorority had a Paint Your Date Contest. (photo above)

Saturday, April 18th

Kappa Sigma and Pi Sigma Chi had a barbecue on the Main Lawn all afternoon while Theta Phi Alpha and Sigma Sigma Sigma had their 2nd Annual Powderpuff Football Game. As Tri Sigma looked to even out the series, Theta Phi Alpha were too much for them and lost for the second time. In the end, thanks to the beautiful weather, it was a great turnout with many people showing support.

    Kevin, you hit it out the box! I love your post, it has great composition of pictures and text. It looks like you were careful in creating it and it paid off because it looks far better than anything Ive posted. Please keep up the good work and I feel at least one active member per week can add something to the site (after all, Pratt is not a dull place when it comes to the Greek community).
