Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. Provide and maintain fraternity house for the benefit of undergraduates. The Alumni Association owns the house and rents it to the Alpha Zeta Chapter of Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity at Kansas State University. The house was totally remodeled in 2004 and has a capacity of about 53 undergraduates. The house is currently full. Most of the revenue goes to repairs, insurance, reserves for future improvements, and taxes. The fraternity house is located at 1919 Platt, Manhattan KS 66502.
  2. Encourage students in literary subjects, specifically agriculture and allied sciences. A close relationship is maintained between the active chapter and the alumni group. Alumni often speak at dinner, assist with recruiting, and hold an annual work day prior to move in day in the fall.
  3. Provide alumni support of other accomplishments and provide social and fraternal opportunities for alumni members and undergraduates. All alumni of the Alpha Zeta chapter become members of the Alumni Association. About 1200 living members. Grants from tax-deductible contributions to the Alpha Gamma Rho Educational Foundation are used for improvements, repairs and other operation expenses related to the education portion 34.4 of the house. Tax-deductible contributions to the Kansas State University Foundation and the Alpha Gamma Rho Educational Foundation are used for scholarships for undergraduate fraternity members. Non-deductible contributions made directly to the Alumni Assocation are used for program expenses and scholarships.
