The Chalet

THIS PAGE WAS DESIGNED AND CREATED BY NICK MARTUCCI. SAM BRINLEY HAS NEITHER THE INGENIOUS CREATIVITY NOR THE SHARP HUMOR TO CREATE A PAGE OF THIS MAGNITUDE.

Welcome.

June 1, 1996 will be a day that lives in infamy. This day was like no other. It was the day that the Alpha Rho Tau fraternity was instituted at Lehigh University. The Phi Upsilon chapter (or more affectionately known as FU) had a humble beginning. The founding fathers (as seen below), scoured the Lehigh University community looking for a fraternity that had the combination of academic excellence, athletic prowess, honor, and integrity that they felt was necessary. Unfortunately, their search found no acceptable organization that was worthy of their membership. (Quite a sad statement for the greek community here at this fine mountainside institution.)

And so, Alpha Rho Tau came into existence.

Our House (a.k.a. The Chalet)
Our 1998 Spring Break trip to Daytona Beach, FL

Only the finest young men receive the honor and privilege of becoming one of the "brethren". Pledging is a long and tedious process. Fighting through intense physical and emotional distress brought about by our sister sorority the Tri Chis (XXX), a local sorority extremely dedicated to sado-masochism, pledges are taught the virtue of humility.

As you can see, it is not easy to become one of these lucky few. However, for those who have made it through, the rewards are worth the punishment. We have quite a large following of women, affectionately known to us as "the harem".

Please allow us to introduce the "Royal Court of Officers for the Overseeing of the Worthless Stuff that those frat guys do and think they're important":

President -- Nick Martucci
Vice President -- Sam Brinley
Treasurer -- Brian Baker
Social Chairman -- Mark Henry
Deputy in Charge of Security -- Brian Wolovich
Advisor to African-American brethren -- Tahron Person
Dog -- Xoe

Please check back soon. Updating constantly.

Attention: I have one word to say to everyone reading this page: RELAX. I'm sure there are some of you "greeks" out there that might be upset at this page. Please. It's a harmless joke. Try not to be so damn anal. Maybe then you guys might not be having trouble filling your houses with students.
As for the black (or african-american) jokes, you guys can relax too. We here at "the Chalet" are comfortable enough with ourselves that we can joke about such foolish topics without getting bent out of shape like the rest of the world does.
