Over the past year the undergraduates have accomplished some incredible feats in several different areas and I am happy to report that we have received a number of awards honoring all of these accomplishments. Here is a brief list of what the undergraduate chapter has accomplished this year:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>With 17 new brothers, Xi Chapter continues to have strong recruitment members. At 66 members, Xi is well above the IFC average.<\/li>\n<li>The Chapter GPA has increased by more than a tenth causing our IFC rank to move up from 20th to 8th.<\/li>\n<li>We revamped our philanthropic efforts and raised over $10,000 for charitable causes around the Charlottesville community. Xi Chapter held its first annual Date Auction philanthropy in the Spring benefitting the Prostate Cancer Foundation.<\/li>\n<li>Xi Chapter has served as a model example of how a fraternity should conduct itself with the Charlottesville neighbors. We created a memorandum of understanding with the neighbors, promising to uphold certain standards above those set by the IFC.<\/li>\n<li>We have established strong relationships with all of our neighbors and have thus received zero noise complaints in a time of increased scrutiny in Charlottesville. We even represented UVA Greek life by speaking at the City Council meeting regarding noise ordinances in order to give the community a positive example of a fraternity living peacefully with its neighbors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Most Improved and Most Outstanding Chapter<\/h3>\n<p>The Xi Chapter was recognized by the UVA Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life by being named both the Most Improved Chapter and Most Outstanding Chapter in the Inter-Fraternity Council. This is an incredible achievement for all members of our fraternity and is a testament to the tireless work put in by the brotherhood.<\/p>\n<h3>Greek Man of the Year<\/h3>\n<p>Finally, we must also recognize the efforts of our outgoing president, Miles Kirwin (&#8217;13). Miles was named the Greek Man of the Year by the OFSL due to his work for the fraternity and the UVA Army Cadet Battalion. Without Miles&#8217; dedication to the brotherhood, we would not have been able to achieve all of these wonderful improvements. Thank you, Miles, for everything you have done for Xi Chapter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have another reason to celebrate during the Centennial Celebration in October!
