" The spring semester brought-on a spirit of helping others. The Sunshine School was in need of some clean-up work and Chi Alpha Rho took advantage of the opportunity to help them, while using the time as a service project. With their help, the school was cleaned-up and ready for classes within a day. Chi Alpha Rho's spring banquet was also a product of much work. Held at the little Rock Club; their banquet reflected the theme of "City lights" with candle lights and live flowers decorating each table. A sli de show emphasizing their year in sports, the holiday parties, and the club's service projects' was shown to renew the memories of their year. With their activities concluded for the spring semester, Chi Alpha Rho started preparing for a busy fall semester.
