me under her wing and passed on many things that the Detroit Alumni chapter would do and demanded that in all things it was done correctly. And yet, Beth, too, raised a family and she and her husband were both music teachers. One of the biggest lessons from Beth was that we as Mu Phis should help to support our Fraternity and Foundation through donations to help others in their pursuit of music excellence. Beth showed me how to become a Golden Benefactor. My list of other members who gave advice or shared their favorite songs and activities for children would include most of the members of the Detroit Alumni chapter, many of whom have since passed. These ladies were encouraging and understanding when my young family kept me from meetings and from participating in events as much as I would have liked. I remember being once apologetic when I had missed meetings, and Ida Swigart (Gamma) said to me, “Donna, don’t worry about it. We’ve all been there and had those moments. We’re glad that you are here, now.” I feel that the biggest lesson that I’ve learned is to always include all Mu Phis and to be as welcoming and warm as you can be. Try to attend their performances and support them in their pursuits and careers, and to be the best in everything that we do, because we are Mu Phi Epsilon!
Mu Phi Epsilon is proud to announce the reactivation of the Delta Psi chapter at Clayton State University in Morrow, Georgia.
