    Kappa Xi participated in the annual Greek Week of activities which included; the kick off
    barbeque, cosmic bowling, karoke, celebration of being greek dinner, greek Olympics, a
    showcase, and awards luncheon. I am extremely proud to report that Kappa Xi won 7 awards.
    Soror Ashley won the Outstanding Chapter Member award and Soror Natalie won the
    Outstanding New Member Award. The joint scholarship reception with Theta Theta Omega,
    Kappa Xi and Omega Psi Phi won the award for Outstanding Education Program. The other four
    /i^ards were for excellence in the areas of Alumni Relations, Organizational & Fiscal
    ^Management, Chapter Development, and Leadership & Campus Involvement.
    Kappa Xi actively participates in the Black Student Association and the National Panhellenic
    Council. The NPHC stepshow took place and they made a 500 dollar profit. BSA hosted a

    The Graduate Advisor attends the Greek Advisor’s Council meetings. The greek housing
    proposal has received the support of Dr. Harter. Phase two of the plan is in progress to gain
    support for the proposal from the greek community. The majority of the greek community as a
    whole must commit to 20 bed spaces. If this is not agreed upon, greek housing at UNLV will not
    become a reality and it is believed the issue will not be brought up again for years if ever. Pete
    Glass is compiling an NPHC informational brochure to mail to all African American students for
    the Fall 2001 semester.
    The 11th Annual Aids Walk was completed with participation from 6 members from Kappa Xi
    and 2 members from Theta Theta Omega. An extra special thanks to Soror Grace Mills for
    taking the time to participate in the walk, but more importantly to interact with the
    undergraduates. In addition to the $75 dollars donated by each chapter, the sorority was able to
    donate $465 to AFAN.
    Soror Ashley and Soror Natalie will be the delegates for Kappa Xi at the Regional Conference in
    June. The Graduate Advisor has been asked by Regional Director, Soror Diana Shipley to
    present a workshop at the Graduate Advisor’s Training Institute at the Regional Conference.
    The essay and poetry contest for KO Knudson School is currently underway. The first activity
    for the mentoring component is planned for May before Kappa Xi members leave for the
    summer.
    One of our new sorors, Jazmyn Good who was reported ill previously was unable to return to
