Philanthropy
DU McGill philanthropy projects have included
volunteering and raising funds for worthy causes. In
the recent past, we organized several film festivals,
including showing the Star Wars Trilogy, Indian Jones
Trilogy, and Jim Carrey films. Of course, our bachelor
auctions also went over quite well!

For
several years, we put on a "Looney
Tune-A-Thon" where we watched cartoons outside
the Union/Shatner Building for 48 hours, rain or
shine. To get some publicity, we went down to the Mix
96 studio! |
| |
| During
the 1990s, the fraternity raised almost
$5,000. In recognition of our fundraising
efforts, this article appeared in the Montreal
Children's Hospital Newsletter (Volume 4,
Number 2, Summer 1995). |

Greek
Week
One of the best reasons to join a fraternity has
gotta be to have a blast during this awesome
competition! |
| Brotherhood |
| Some of our
most memorable brotherhood events have included having
our own hockey and basketball teams (not to mention
having brothers in a co-ed fraternity-sorority
ultimate team), weekend retreats (like Gary's
Country house!), movie nights, Super Bowl Bashes (with
Brother Pare's cooking delights!), smokers, and
weekend road trips to other DU chapters. |
|
|
|
As
with any smoker, we 'cozied up' a room in the
house, read poetry and short stories, and
smoked cigars. This one was particularly
memorable, given the high alumni turn-out,
including brothers who had graduated from
McGill in the 1960s! |
|
| These
pics were taken during a roadtrip to the
University of Western Ontario chapter of DU.
We rented a couple vans and 14 of us headed
down! Notice the lovely sleeping
accommodations! Of course, the brothers had a
great time... |

| Check
out the Alto's menu on the right: how
can anyone get to bed after a night of
partying without grabbing a bite at
Alto's?! ...it's still open 'til
4-5am, depending on the night. The
brothers made that crucial stop during
the October 2001 Alumni Banquet. |

| Social
Events |
| Being
the master socializers that they are, the DU
boys happily boarded this Inter Greek
Letter Council (IGLC) Party Cruise! |
