Phi Mu-Sigma Nu win Carnicus 2017

In February 2017, Phi Mu and Sigma Nu joined to win Carnicus 2017. The two chapters spent weeks writing a skit, practicing the performance and pulling together just the right costumes for the performance. The hours of preparation paid off when it was announced that Phi Mu and Sigma Nu had placed first in the overall competition.

Carnicus has a long and storied past at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The commonly known beginnings date back to the early 1900's. In the early part of the 20th century, UT students celebrated the end of the year's classes with an event called the June Jubilee. It evolved with the Glee Club performing, vaudeville shows by the students, and side shows. In 1911, a circus was added with students dressing as elephants, cows, and other animals. By 1925, the carnival had become a mid-winter carnival held indoors and the circus an outdoor event held in the spring. In 1929, the All Campus Events committee combined the two activities and George Abernathy, a member of the All Students' Club, coined the word Carnicus. The event ended with the crowning of a Carnicus Queen. As Carnicus evolved over the years, emphasis was placed on the skit competitions, and the parades, dances, and queen crowning were eliminated. Today's Carnicus competition allows a maximum of ten groups, single or co-ed, from any student organization.
