Lineage at Tau

Our story begins with ONE
Jennifer, Kara, she pledged Spring 2fly
Bringing the radiance from Syracuse - Xi
TWO springs had passed
Since this sunflower shone
But of new seeds, there were none.

Then THREE more followed her radiant light
Breaking the ground, breaking the night
On April 13th 2002
Nazeeya broke the colony through.

Home is where the heart is, and our heart’s in Xi
With such dedication there's no question why!
Through their lessons, their love, the struggles and tears
We learned to achieve so much through the years.

So the story continues: we needed to shine!
The campaigning, the programs, hard work all the time
We were on a mission, the sun never rose;
And after three years we were noticed by those
Who gave us our due... the struggle was through.
Unconquerable, unbroken, un phased. We became
that chapter at Tau, our untouchable name.
