Acacia fraternity recently inducted 2 new members as of Fall 2009. The new Brothers adding their names to the Acacia ranks are John Ertl and Jon Hsieh.John attended the University of Wisconsin for two years and got his Associate's degree before transferring to Cornell. He goes to the School of Industrial and Labor Relations and is involved with social activist groups on campus and enjoys working out. John was pledge class president of this 2 person group winning out in what was truly a very tight 2 horse race. His pledge brother Jon Hsieh is a Sophomore in the Hotel School. Jon likes cooking and working on cars while playing his violin. The duo successfully achieved brotherhood in Early December, as of now they are preparing to join the brotherhood for the 2010 spring rush.
