Cook AZ Movie Night

Cook AZ Movie Night

Originally posted by Aubrey B. Weibel

On the last day of classes for this semester, Cook Chapter decided to relax for a few hours and have a movie night. 23 brothers squeezed in to one room and watched Just Friends, laughed and ate. To make the night more interesting, each brother was supposed to bring a baked good to share and have judged by the old executive board in a Bake-Off. The 'contestants' ranged from cookies and cake to cinnamon roles and the winner got  a bag of 'study aids,' including Red Bull and various candies and chips.

The Florida Chapter of Alpha Zeta hosted the National Service Project for the second time. 10 brothers came from Florida and across the country to help in the Orlando area. The trip was an opportunity for members to work hard and make a difference in the lives of people we encountered or helped. The 10 members who came to Orlando worked extremely hard and made a huge difference in the lives of disadvantaged people in the Central Florida area!

Cook Chapter Thanksgiving

Originally by Vincenzo Averello IV

On Sunday November 20, 2011, 20 brothers came together for the Cook Chapter annual Thanksgiving potluck dinner. Each person brought a dish, many using local produce that directly supports local farmers. While there brothers reminisced about the past semester while watching football (it is Thanksgiving after all). It was a comfortable night with good friends and good food.

Cook Chapter Runs the Big Chill

Cook Chapter Runs the Big Chill

Originally posted by Lisa K. Izzo

On Saturday, December 10th, the Cook Chapter of Alpha Zeta participated in the Big Chill, an annual 5k run/walk that takes place at Rutgers. The entry fee for the race was a new, unopened toy. The Alpha Zeta team consisted of 44 members, both members of the fraternity as well as friends and family. Everyone on the team ran or walked the course wearing reindeer antlers, and the chapter advisor, Dr. Clark, walked the event dressed as Santa Claus. The event is one of the biggest charity races that takes place at Rutgers; last year over 8,000 toys were collected for donation. The Alpha Zeta team won an award for being the fraternity/sorority team with the most participants. The event was a great way for the chapter to bond and participate in a campus-wide event.

Cook Chapter Has Lunch with Plant Biology Professor

Originally posted by Lisa K. Izzo

On November 10th, the Scholarship Committee of the Cook Chapter hosted a lunch with Dr. Bruce Clarke, an Alpha Zeta alumnus and professor of Plant Biology and Pathology at Rutgers. Dr. Clarke answered questions regarding the graduate school application process, and gave members tips on writing to prospective graduate school advisors. He also talked about what the Cook Campus community  and Alpha Zeta were like many years ago, and members discussed changes occurring on campus and Alpha Zeta's role in keeping a sense of community in the ever-changing Rutgers landscape. Members enjoyed getting the chance to talk to a professor and alumnus that they do not get to see very often.
