'''OVERVIEW'''
'''To join a fraternity or sorority at [[http:''www.drake.edu/life/greeklife/|Drake University]], a student must first be [[http:''www.drake.edu/life/greeklife/recruitment.php|registered]] as a participant in the recruitment process. Once registered, usually 1-2 weeks after school has started and everything has settled down a bit, "Rush Week" begins. During "Rush Week," any student who has registered can participate in the activities and events that are planned. These events are meant for the members and the potential members of the Greek Community to get to know one another and learn about the many different houses offered at Drake. After the formal recruitment, the houses normally give out "bids," whic''''''h is an invitation to membership. Before offering full membership to a bid, they must go though a period called pledgeship. During this "pledgeship," the potential member must complete a few tasks and learn more about the house they are joining. Upon completion of pledgeship and other requirements, the house will then invite the pledges to be initiated and become members. The initiation process is different for every house but it usually includes rituals and ceremonies. The process for joining sororities and fraternities are very different, joining a fraternity if very informal and laid-back, while joining a sorority is a little bit more formal.<ref>'''

''''''RUSH WEEK''''''
''''''During Rush Week, the potential members of the [[http:''www.drake.edu/life/greeklife/listing/|Greek Community]] learn all about each different chapter offered at Drake. Tours of each different house are offered and members of the house are there to get to know the potential pledges. Many students come into Rush Week having no idea what house they would like to join; Rush Week helps them to narrow it down and make the right choice.''' '''Kylie Franklin, a senior at Drake University, is a member of Alpha Phi, and she said, "Rush Week is the time to explore the many different houses offered at Drake."''' '''Mixers, barbecues, dinners, game nights, themed parties and just hanging out are a few of the events that go on during Rush Week. Drake tries to keep the rushing process as informal and stress-free as possible. While taking tours and listening to the [[http:''www.drake.edu/life/greeklife/resources.php|goals ]]of each house is important, getting to know the people of each house may be the most important of all. To get into a house, a potential member normally needs about a 50-75% approval rate from the entire house. If after Rush Week a student has no interest in joining the Greek Community, they can just notify one of the members and they will be taken off of the contact lists.<ref>''''''

'''''''''EARNING A BID & PLEDGESHIP'''''''''
'''''''''After Rush Week, each chapter will then pick out bids according to who they think will fit in and represent their house the best. It is possible to receive more than one bid, if this happens, the recipient must decide which bid he wants to pursue. After accepting a bid, the potential member is now called a pledge. A pledge is almost a member, but he or she must first go through an initiation process that will be specific to their house. Most houses have a few tasks or challenges for the pledges to complete. After their "pledgeship" is complete, the house will then invite the pledges to be initiated and become members of the Greek Community.

During his time at Drake, Helmick was a member of <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: ''www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.pbk.org/home/index.aspx|Phi Beta Kappa]]

=='''[[#ROBERT H. HELMICK-DEEP CONNECTIONS WITH DRAKE]]DEEP CONNECTIONS WITH DRAKE'''==
During his childhood, Helmick actually lived directly on the Drake University campus. His house during his early childhood years, stoodapproximately where Meredith Hall is now located. Robert's father, Paul S. Helmick, was the former head of the Drake physics department, and was a part of the Drake faculty from 1923 to 1964. Helmick's mother, Dorothy H. Helmick taught mathematics at Drake from 1954 to 1960. All together, the Helmick family has received 14 Drake degrees[[franklinh:Robert Helmick#cite_note-1|[1]]] .

=='''[[#ROBERT H. HELMICK-INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE]]'''INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE''''''==
During 1972, Helmick received his first Olympic experience by managing the United States water polo team. In 1978, he became president of the Amateur Athletic Union, and served until 1980. From 1984 to 1988, Helmick was the president of <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: ''www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[http://www.fina.org/H2O/|FINA]] or the International Swimming Federation, and even though he had so much going on in his life at the time, when nominated in 1981, he became president of the <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.teamusa.org/|United States Olympic Committee]], and served until 1991[[franklinh:Robert Helmick#cite_note-2 [2]] .

|'''DRAMA WITH THE OLYMPICS'''
|-
|At the 1988 Winter Games in Calgary, Robert introduced George Steinbrenner, the former owner of the New York Yankees, as the head of a n
|-
|ew Olympics overview committee. The media called this a "knee-jerk" reaction to the United States horrible performance.
|}

Drama once again struck in 1991, when Helmick was accused of using his position of the Olympic committee to influence anyone in the Olympic movement on behalf of his private clients. Eventually, Helmick acknowledged the fact the errors of his judgement, but still denied that he had done anything wrong. Finally, in September of 1991, Helmick resigned from the IOC. In his letter of resignation, Helmick writes,

"''I want to strongly reassert my belief that I have done nothing ever of harm to the Olympic movement and I appreciate the support of so many of my colleagues here. I regret the situation that has arisen as a result// //of how my actions have been interpreted by others."''

Although his time with the Olympic committee had a bitter sweet ending, Helmick helped the world increase the resources that were available to the amateur athletes, and by doing this helped the United States become a more fierce competitor at the Olympic games.

=='''[[#ROBERT H. HELMICK-HELMICK COMMONS]]HELMICK COMMONS'''==
Growing up on the Drake campus is what started the vision for the Helmick Commons, said Helmick. In an interview by the Times~Delphic, Helmick says that,

''"My dream was to not compromise for the students, it should be a place where students feel comfortable. It is a tremendous privilege to have to opportunity to fulfill a vision and for the university to go with the vision that was really created in my boyhood."''

The plans for Helmick Commons were very extravagant and extremely expensive. They included revamping the Olmsted parking lot and planting trees in the parking lot and across campus. A few more renovations include the closing of Olmsted Circle and converting it into a patio. A few kiosks will be added around campus for posting announcements and flyers. The Commons will include improved lighting and a wetland area will be added to Quad creek. The agora in between Herriott Residence Hall and Harvey Ingham was also part of the plans, but were donated by a separate sponsor. In the end, Helmick donated over $500,000 to pay for the landscape and remodeling, and donated another $1.5 million for future upkeep. Helmick said the purpose of thewas to be a meeting place, an invitation to students to get outside, and a place to be proud of[[franklinh:Robert Helmick#cite_note-3|[3]]] .

''"It's about bringing students together. Your success is not acknowledged by the degrees that are on your wall, but what is in your heart." - Robert Helmick''

The Helmick Commons Project did not just happen overnight. It had been 13 years in the making, and finally after countless delays and environmental catastrophes, the Helmick Commons were finished in May of 2002; however, Robert Helmick never got to see it finished[[franklinh:Robert Helmick#cite_note-4|[4]]] .

Alpha Phi's are heavily involved in campus activites, Phi's are found in nearly every organization on campus. From Student Activities Board, to athletics, to [[thompsonl:Student Senate Student Senate], intramurals, and Professional Sororities, Alpha Phi's are encouraged to stay involved on campus to help sisters grow.===

'''PURPOSE OF ALPHA PHI'''
=="The objectives of our Fraternity are the promotion of growth in character; unity of feeling, sisterly affection, and social communion among our members. In all that we do, we try to obey God’s principles of justice and right. We have banded ourselves together to improve our minds and hearts, and we seek to aid each other through a constant watchcare always given in love. We believe ourselves to be sincere searchers for truth. We seek the highest ideal of womanhood, and we try to gain this ideal by cultivating not only the power and passion for seeking intellectual development but, also, the spirit of love and charity. And we who are thus united are under a solemn pledge to lend a helping hand to one another. "==
==- Constitution of Alpha Phi International Fraternity, Incorporated, Article II==

==ALPHA PHI FOUNDATION==
====Mission Statement:====
=="Alpha Phi Foundation empowers women to be generous givers. We raise and award funds for programs that advance leadership development, encourage academic excellence, improve women’s heart health, support sisters in need and educate about the value of philanthropy."==
===-Alpha Phi Foundation===

==History==
===The [http://foundation.alphaphi.org/ Alpha Phi Foundation] was founded in 1956, making it one of the oldest Greek women's foundations. It's purpose was to awards grants from scholarship and cardiac aid funds. Today, they still reward scholarships and help promote women's cardiac health, but they have also added quite a few other things to the list. The foundation now funds programs that promote leadership and learning opportunities, educate women about philanthropy, and assist those in need.===

===When asked about the Alpha Phi Foundation, Ann Brinkman, a Zeta Delta member at Iowa State said,===
==="I want young women of future generations to benefit from the life-long gifts of friendship, leadership and social skills that Alpha Phi gave me."===

==CARDIAC CARE==
===In 1946, rheumatic fever, which is a disease that causes dehabillitating damage to the heart, was the leading killer of children in the United States. Alpha Phi decided to help these children and others suffering from cardiac problems by donating to cardiac aid. Over the next fewdecades, with the help of modern antibiotic therapy, rheumatic fever became rare. Now, a new problem was forming, known as heart disease. It quickly became the #1 killer of women in North America. The Alpha Phi Foundation thought it was fitting for a women's organization to fight it. Since 1946, Alpha Phi has donated more than $1 million to support cardiac health.===

==FUNDRAISING==
===In the fall at Drake, Alpha Phi hosts the annual Red Dress Gala. It always falls on Parent's Weekend, and helps the Phis to raise money for their foundation. During the spring, Alpha Phi hosts Fast Phi't, which is inspired by the Drake Relays. Every house on Greek Street participate in relay races and obstacle courses. Fast Phi't is completely organized by the Phi house Philanthropy team. Another fun event organized by the Phis, is "Cardiac Arrest." The week before Fast Phi't, the president of each house is "arrested," and a healthy eating contest is held. Each house then serenades the Alpha Phi house to incorporate the Phi's philanthropy and their house. Each event throughout this week is worth points, and whoever collects the most points wins the Philanthropy at the end of the week.===

HUBBELL DINING HALL

 OPENING
 Hubbell Dining Hall officially opened on September 28th, 1953. At the time of its opening, Hubbell could accommodate 400 people ata time. This building was part of a $2,600,000 dormitory project, that included three brand new residence halls that could house 600 students. A few of the features of Hubbell were a large dining room, along with several individual ones, snack bars and lounges. The first floor contained the snack shop, soda fountain and bakery, with seating available for 125-175 students. Two staircases then led up to the main dining area, which could hold up to 400 students at a time. The entire upstairs dining room was large, open windows, that gave the students a spectacular view of the pond while they were enjoying their meal. The exterior was done in a red brick to match the outside of the dormitories. Hubbell is located in the middle of "the Quad", the four freshmen residence halls, Herriott, Carpenter, Crawford and Stalnaker[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-1|[1]]] .
 BACKGROUND
 Grover Cooper Hubbell, a member of a pioneer Iowa family, was a prominent businessman and an active civic leader in the Des Moines community. He was also a member of the Drake Board of Trustees from 1929 until his death in 1956. From 1931 until 1948, he was the chairman of the Drake Board of Trustees. Hubbell was designed by Eero Saarinen [[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-2|[2]]] .

In June of 1954, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/davis/ Stuart Davis], one of America's most prominent painters of the time, visited Drake University to select a location for his painting. The painting, named Allee, measures 8 x 33 feet and was given to Drake by the Gardner Cowles Foundation. While on his visit, Davis noted the following about Hubbell,

"I remember the whiteness of the room- its ceilings and walls- the black floor, the blue sky outside those huge windows, and the red rectangles of the brick dormitories."

This viewpoint is clearly visible in the painting. Today, the painting is located on the second floor of the [http://NetleyJ%20.drake.wikispaces.net/Olmsted%20Building|Olmsted Building]], Drake's student union[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-3 [3]] .

CHANGES
 In 1966, an addition was added to Hubbell, extending the building to the south. This addition forced the dining hall to be moved to a new area. The new dining hall could hold 330 students and had several new service lines. A coffee shop and student lounge now occupied the space where the original dining hall was. The lower level of Hubbell now had a quick sub and pizza and convenience store. Another huge change to Hubbell happened in 1986. The bakery, which provided dinner rolls, muffins, sheet cakes, pies and nut breads closed its doors. Taking the place of these treats were ready-made items, like cupcakes, cookies, Danish and fruit rolls .

COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS
From the beginning, Hubbell was receiving negative feedback from the students at Drake. The food quality was always being questioned, and the students wondered where their money was going if it was not going towards nutritious food . Atmosphere was another complaint from the students. Until in 1985, the complaints finally piled up enough to where people took action and remodeled the interior for an '80s theme instead of the prior '60s. The biggest complaint of all was the length of the lines. Students began just going to the shortest line. Some even called it a "hassle" going there, and said they would rather skip lunch than eat there . However, Hubbell has always been open to change and change it did again in 2010[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-4|[4]]] .

MODERN DAY HUBBELL
 In October 2009, a renovation called <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.buildingamoderncampus.com/hubbell.html|Buliding a Modern Campus]] for Hubbell was cleared by the Drake University Board of Trustees[[File:Hubbs2.jpg|left|Hubbs2.jpg]] . What was once called Spike's, will for now be called Hubbell North, until a finalized name is cleared. Spike's, the dining hall closest to the first year dorms, was open until 1 am, and many students utilized this option. While students can still have the all-you-can-eat option at Hubbell South, they will now have different options to choose from at Hubbell North. The food Hubbell North will be serving comes from a university-wide survey done at Drake. Students will also still have the late night snack fix when needed, Hubbell North has the same hours as Spike's. The addition of the new Hubbell has greatly decreased the lines and wait time for students at Drake. Students like the different options and the convenience of Hubbell North. The menu and the hours for Hubbell can be found on the <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.buildingamoderncampus.com/hubbell.html|Drake Website .]]

HUBBELL DINING HALL

OPENING
Hubbell Dining Hall officially opened on September 28th, 1953. At the time of its opening, Hubbell could accommodate 400 people ata time. This building was part of a $2,600,000 dormitory project, that included three brand new residence halls that could house 600 students. A few of the features of Hubbell were a large dining room, along with several individual ones, snack bars and lounges. The first floor contained the snack shop, soda fountain and bakery, with seating available for 125-175 students. Two staircases then led up to the main dining area, which could hold up to 400 students at a time. The entire upstairs dining room was large, open windows, that gave the students a spectacular view of the pond while they were enjoying their meal. The exterior was done in a red brick to match the outside of the dormitories. Hubbell is located in the middle of "the Quad", the four freshmen residence halls, Herriott, Carpenter, Crawford and Stalnaker[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-1|[1]]] .
BACKGROUND
Grover Cooper Hubbell, a member of a pioneer Iowa family, was a prominent businessman and an active civic leader in the Des Moines community. He was also a member of the Drake Board of Trustees from 1929 until his death in 1956. From 1931 until 1948, he was the chairman of the Drake Board of Trustees. Hubbell was designed by Eero Saarinen [[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-2|[2]]] .

STUART DAVIS' ALLEE

In June of 1954, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: ''www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/davis/|Stuart Davis]], one of America's most prominent painters of the time, visited Drake University to select a location for his painting. The painting, named Allee, measures 8 x 33 feet and was given to Drake by the Gardner Cowles Foundation. While on his visit, Davis noted the following about Hubbell,

"I remember the whiteness of the room- its ceilings and walls- the black floor, the blue sky outside those huge windows, and the red rectangles of the brick dormitories."

This viewpoint is clearly visible in the painting. Today, the painting is located on the second floor of the [http://NetleyJ%20.drake.wikispaces.net/Olmsted%20Building|Olmsted Building]], Drake's student union[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-3 [3]] .

CHANGES
In 1966, an addition was added to Hubbell, extending the building to the south. This addition forced the dining hall to be moved to a new area. The new dining hall could hold 330 students and had several new service lines. A coffee shop and student lounge now occupied the space where the original dining hall was. The lower level of Hubbell now had a quick sub and pizza and convenience store. Another huge change to Hubbell happened in 1986. The bakery, which provided dinner rolls, muffins, sheet cakes, pies and nut breads closed its doors. Taking the place of these treats were ready-made items, like cupcakes, cookies, Danish and fruit rolls .

COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS
From the beginning, Hubbell was receiving negative feedback from the students at Drake. The food quality was always being questioned, and the students wondered where their money was going if it was not going towards nutritious food . Atmosphere was another complaint from the students. Until in 1985, the complaints finally piled up enough to where people took action and remodeled the interior for an '80s theme instead of the prior '60s. The biggest complaint of all was the length of the lines. Students began just going to the shortest line. Some even called it a "hassle" going there, and said they would rather skip lunch than eat there . However, Hubbell has always been open to change and change it did again in 2010[[franklinh:Hubbell Dining Hall#cite_note-4|[4]]] .

MODERN DAY HUBBELL
In October 2009, a renovation called <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: ''www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[http://www.buildingamoderncampus.com/hubbell.html|Buliding a Modern Campus]] for Hubbell was cleared by the Drake University Board of Trustees[[File:Hubbs2.jpg|left|Hubbs2.jpg]] . What was once called Spike's, will for now be called Hubbell North, until a finalized name is cleared. Spike's, the dining hall closest to the first year dorms, was open until 1 am, and many students utilized this option. While students can still have the all-you-can-eat option at Hubbell South, they will now have different options to choose from at Hubbell North. The food Hubbell North will be serving comes from a university-wide survey done at Drake. Students will also still have the late night snack fix when needed, Hubbell North has the same hours as Spike's. The addition of the new Hubbell has greatly decreased the lines and wait time for students at Drake. Students like the different options and the convenience of Hubbell North. The menu and the hours for Hubbell can be found on the<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.drake.wikispaces.net/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; padding-right: 10px;">[[http:''www.buildingamoderncampus.com/hubbell.html Drake Website<ref>]
