FSU is located in the pan handle of Maryland. Its student body and alumni have heavy connections with Baltimore and Washington D.C.

Frostburg State University Greek Life has a long history of local organizations. In fact, there are more local groups than national fraternities currently. This provides an interesting challenge for our men. No, we do not want the men that join these local organizations, as they have a tumultuous reputation. We may want their friends or roommates. Mu Omicron, like many of our chapters, consistently battles the poor reputation that is shed on the Greek Life community.

I had the privelege of speaking with Father Ed, Doug B., and Dr. Bowling (all of which are members who joined as professionals). Each of them spoke of the community's remarkable change and growth but that there is a long way to go. They all recognized that Phi Mu Delta was central to that growth.

Prior to the end of winter break, Mu Omicron ran into some grade troubles with several officers. Our men were quick to fix the issue and move forward. Two gentlemen stepped forward to fill those roles and put in place a concrete plan which included chair binders, effective meeting agendas and the reworking of the organization's work-flow.

Problem solving and efficient meetings are definitely a strong suit in Maryland, along with a laundry list of others.
