Cook Chapter Mixer

Cook Chapter Mixer

On February 8th, the brothers of the Cook Chapter hosted their once a semester mixer for potential new members. About 30 interested students showed up to the mixer. The night started out with the Censor and Sgt at Arms explaining the pledging process and talking about what Alpha Zeta stands for and what we do at Rutgers. The new members then got to mingle with all of the brothers, first by taking part in a "brother scavenger hunt", and then by breaking into groups and playing ice breaker type games. All of the brothers enjoyed meeting the potential new members.

The Florida Chapter had its second intramural sand volleyball game on Sunday. Although we would love to be out in the sunshine our time slot is at 7 PM. The members who showed up to play that night and were met by an impressive team that had played together since high school. Unfortunately, we had our first loss, but members showed great improvement upon the first game and are definitely looking forward to successive games. As for the game itself a few of our members served aces adding to our score!...

S'mores!

S'mores!

On the night of February 1st, Cook Chapter planned a recruitment event that would leave everyone in a sugar rush. We made a fire outside the Campus Center and invited anyone who was walking around to come and make a S'more. A lot of people burned their marshmallows and claimed that was the plan all along. It was a great way to promote our name on campus and announce our presence to potential pledges. We gave out a lot of pledge flyers and are hoping to see a great turnout this semester.

Thanksgiving Dinner

Originally posted by Paola Luna

For Thanksgiving time, the Agriculture faculty traditionally prepares a dinner for its students and colleges. This year we were asked to prepare a thanks giving dynamic, for which we contacted a deaf student that helped us interpret a song in sign language, giving thanks for all of our blessings.

The Science Agriculture Centenary

Originally posted by Paola Luna

On the 23rd of September, the building Jose T. PIñero was converted into a farmer’s market with free tasting samples of local coffee, corn and mango ice cream. Around the building, we had the different machinery, photographs and equipment used through time. In this activity, students, ex alumni, farmers professors as well as the people of the community celebrated the passing 100 years of the agricultural faculty. In this exciting activity, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) gave the campus their trademark as a gift of appreciation for all the years of collaborative service. We as Alpha Zeta members helped in the organization before, during and after the celebration. Some of the members and students from different organizations had the honor of planting the tree symbolic of the one hundred years of the faculty.

Cook Chapter Family Dinners

Cook Chapter Family Dinners

Originally posted by Lisa K. Izzo

One of the great traditions that the Cook Chapter has is bigs and littles, but it goes beyond that. Family lines are important to the members of the chapter, even after the pledging semester is over. Recently, many families have started the tradition of the "family dinner". Most families do a potluck style dinner, cooking anything from mac and cheese to chili...

Dinner at the Dining Hall

Dinner at the Dining Hall

Originally posted by Aubrey B. Weibel

The night of January 31st, a bunch of brothers of the Cook Chapter made a plan to go out to dinner at the one affordable place, the Dining Hall. Brothers of all different pledge classes talked about their days and complained about hard classes while enjoying dinner (and desert). It's good to know that no matter how long the day is, you always have brothers to rely on.
