As I embark on my administration for the year 2008-2009, I am humbled to know that my name can now be added to the long list of Polari that have traveled the Zeta Chapter journey, each leaving their own personal impression on a tradition that continues to be built daily.

As the current Polaris, I am comfident that with the tools possessed by myself and my chapter brothers, we will continue the building process of Iota, all the while walking in the light of the principles of scholarship, leadership, citizenship, fidelity, and brotherhood.

As the leader of this great chapter, I impress upon my chapter brothers that we continue to be examples of individuality, not examples of conformity, that we continue to be advocates for social change, not advocates of social complacency and that we always Build and never rest! This is the fabric that the Zeta chapter was founded on, but more importantly it is the fabric that this great fraternity was founded on, one that we will never depart from.
