Removed draft headers and footers, replacing them with the official 'ENROLLED' status and standard legislative formatting.

Expanded the 'WHEREAS' clauses to include specific historical details about the fraternity's original chartering and name change, as well as its organizational maturity.

Updated the 'THEREFORE' clause to include a formal wish for the organization's continued prosperity alongside the official date designation.
