Who is the Fraternity Man of the Future?In the year 2008, today's first-graders will be
entering their freshmen year in college. Their college
experience, however, will be greatly different than that
of today's college students and those of the past.By the year 2008, issues such as multicultural pro-
gramming, the demographics of the college studentand the financial environment will have an impact onwho will be attending institutions of higher education.
The survival of the Greek system will depend onits ability to adapt to these changes.
"We are entering an era where the traditional,
white student will no longer dominate our universities
and colleges," Vic Boschini, Dean of Students at
Indiana University, said. Boschini has been studying
birth rates and deomographics for years.So, what does the fraternity man of the future have
to look forward to?Multicultural environments will become a norm
in our society. The U.S. Census Bureau predicts by theyear 2020, whites will be a minority in the UnitedStates.
If trends continue within the American society atits current pace, by the year 2008, one of every threeAmericans will be non-white. Among the birth rates,Hispanics will have the biggest growth rate. Mormons,Asians and Native Americans will also lead this birthrate charge. The U.S. Census Bureau predicts 47million Hispanics will constitute part of the projected

Charter Nu Phi member captures highest awardFrank Hawthorne's Pi Kapp career reads like a good
novel you just don't want to put down. But, by the time youfinish this great book, you read in the closing chapters he isthe recipient of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity's highest award -Mr. Pi Kappa Phi for 1990.
On September 16, 1990, Foundation Executive VicePresident Ted Scharfenstein presented Frank Howard Haw-thorne with the Fraternity's most prestigious award inMontgomery, Alabama. The day also marked Hawthorne's67th birthday.
"I am just so honored to receive this great award,"Hawthorne said. "It really did come as a surprise to me."
Hawthorne discovered Pi Kappa Phi when he attendedAuburn University (then Alabama Polytechnic Institute) in1941. He was initiated on January 23, 1943 into Alpha IotaChapter #262. After serving as secretary, Hawthorne leftschool to attend Vanderbilt University, but quickly returnedto Auburn after a year. He served as archon and graduated in1946 with a bachelor's of science degree.
Hawthorne continued his education at the University ofAlabama and found a home with the Omicron Chapter. He
was an active brother with Omicron and completed his law
degree in 1949.
His service to the National Council includes National
Historian from 1954-56, National Chancellor from 1956-62,
and National Treasurer from 1962-64. Hawthorne becamethe first president of Pi Kappa Phi Properties 1966-70. Healso served as chartering officer for several chapters over theyears.
However, the most amazing accomplishment by Haw-thorne is his love for Supreme Chapters. Since the 2IstSupreme Chapter in 1946 in Birmingham, Alabama, Haw-thorne has attended every Supreme Chapter since except forthe 35th convention in San Francisco in 1977 and the 38thgathering in Valley Forge in 1981.
He also holds the distinct honor of being a chartermember of the Nu Phi Society for brothers who haveattended more than five Supreme Chapters.
Hawthorne's law career reads just like his Fraternitycareer. After serving as an instructor at Auburn and Ala-
bama, Hawthorne landed a partnership in the law firm Balch& Bingham in Birmingham and Montgomery. He is a
member of the American Bar Association, Alabama StateBar Association and the American Judicature Society.
Last year, Hawthorne wrote his first book titled Kissin'Kin & Lost Cousins.
His undying love for community service includesPresident, Vice President and member of Board of Di-

VallIEVISSUES Fraternity man copeswith the future
Continued from page 1
265 million people who will populate the
U.S. _On July 11, 1987, United Nations Sec-
retary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar held
newborn Matej Gaspar in his arms in Yugo-
slavia and declared him the world's five
billionth person. It symbolized to the world
that our population is growing to unimagin-
able heights.The population growth rate of the planet
is .expected to rise while the population rate
in the United States will decline slightly.
The racial and ethnic diversity of the
United States are only just the beginning.
The portrait of a college student will be
painted a little differently as well.
The average age of a college student
will become older as he will be 27 years old,
because he will have to work more to get
through college. The population as a whole
will become older as well with the majority
being over 35 years old.
Growth in "single-parent births" will
increase dramatically. The highest growth
rate is expected to be found in white women.
One-third of single-birth children will never
know their own fathers.
The U.S. Census Bureau predicts that
the number of high school graduates will
continue to decline until 1999.
By the year 2001, the high school gradu-
ating class will have these characteristics:
one of out four will be poor; 14% will befrom teenage mothers; 15% will be immi-
grants and their first language will not be
English; one out of six will have no health
insurance; and 25% will not graduate at all.
Fraternities will be faced with fewer
men to recruit, and competition will be
greater for higher quality men.
Fall 1990 -the star & lamp- Page 3
"Strong Enough to Care"
Probably the greatest issue the future
college student will confront will be the
financial environment around him.
Tuition costs will continue to steadily
climb. In 1990, the average annual cost for
a four-year, private institution is $8,700.
The average cost for a four-year, public in-
stitution is $1,700. Two-thirds of all college
students in a private school this year will re-
ceive some type of financial aid while about
47% of those in a public institution will
receive financial aid. Today, about 54% of
all students work while enrolled.
Only about half of all college students
who enter school now will actually gradu-
ate. More students are also entering com-
munity colleges.By the year 2010, one in every five
college graduates will take his first job
which doesn't require a degree. He will find
most of these jobs in the service sector of
society.The top five employers that will be
hiring our future fraternity men will be
computer-related industries, engineering
firms, fast food industries, employment and
personnel industries, and tax preparation
specialists.Analysts predict that future Greek sys-
tems will steadily return to the principles on
which they were created. Fraternity men
will become more career-oriented and aca-
demically conscious.
Many college students recognize with
the Berlin Wall down and the influx of
Japanese power they must receive a good
education in order to compete.
The American Council of Education
has even made recommendations in order to
assure Greeks follow the right educational
path. The recommendations include the in-
stitution conducting regular reviews of the

Message to schools:fight drugs or pay
The word from the Department of
Education to higher education institutions
is if students break the law, you pay.
The Department of Education made
the decision of the.Drug-Free Schools and
Communities Act Amendments of 1989
which became effective October 1, 1990.
The new regulations require higher
education institutions to adopt and imple-
ment, "...a program to prevent the unlaw-
ful possession, use or distribution of illicit
drugs and alcohol by students and em-
ployees"If higher education institutions do not
adopt new programs, they risk the chance
of losing its Federal funding. This marks
the first time colleges and universities
have had to both obey and enforce limita-
tions on alcohol and drugs.
Higher education institutions will be
required to distribute annually, in writing,
to each student and employee:
1. Standards of conduct that clearly
prohibit, at a minimum, the unlawful pos-
session, use or distribution of illicit drugs
and alcohol by students and employees on
its property or as part of any of its activi-
ties.
2. A description of applicable legal
sanctions under local, State or Federal
law.3. A description of health risks asso-
ciated with the use of illicit drugs and the
abuse of alcohol.4. A description of available drug or
alcohol counseling, treatment or rehabili-
tation or re-entry programs.
5. A clear statement that the higher
education institution will impose disci-
plinary sanctions on students and em-
ployees, consistent with local, State and
Federal law, up to and including expul-
sion or termination of employment and
referral for prosecution of the standards
of conduct.The Drug-Free Schools and Com-
munities Act Amendments of 1989
stemmed from a governmental percep-
tion that many colleges and universities
failed to enforce applicable laws relating
to drugs and alcohol.
Stanford University recently said the
enforcement of alcohol and drug laws is
the job of "local authorities" and not the
university. Many other higher education
institutions agree with Stanford.
relationship between the institution and the
Greek system to align the system with the
institutions educational goals, establishing
standards for supervision of campus chap-
ters and providing programs for alcohol and
substance abuse for Greek organizations,
encouraging Greeks toeliminate pledge status
as a requirement for institutional recognition
or support and requiring all chapters to have
adequate liability insurance.
The fraternity man of the future will
have to meet higher expectations from our
society. The problems and issues will be
different than from today. And the class of
2008 will have to tackle them and conquer
their issues as classes past have done.
Date rape campaign off to great startThe Administrative Office has just
completed its date rape program in which
currently 25 chapters are participating. These
chapters will critique the program. During
the Mid-Year Leadership Conferences in
1991, all student chapters will receive a copy
of the program.The initial feedback to the program has
been a very positive one. Director of Corn-
munications Matt Basta recently addressed
about 350 Greeks at Memphis State Univer-
sity on the program and facilitated an open
discussion with fraternities and sororities on
date rape.If an undergraduate chapter would like
to participate in evaluating the program,
please write the Administrative Office in
care of the Director of Communications.

alumni centEr "Strong Enough to Care"
(Chapters find a newplace to call homeToledo grabs 30-man house
For the first time in over a decade,
Beta Iota-Toledo again has a place it can
call home. In August of 1990, when the
on-campus Greek Village Complexwas
completed, Beta Iota moved into their
new chapter house.The "House Grand Opening" was a
great success! Attendees included 142
Pi Kapp alumni, pledges, undergraduate
members and their parents, and friends.
Dr. Ralph Mueller, faculty/scholar-
ship advisor for the chapter, presented
the house with a framed picture of the
founders."This [the picture] means a lot to the
chapter and shows the bond between
student members and our alumni," House
Manager Brendon McCaskey said.
The chapter and the housing corpo-
ration prepared and presented an appli-
cation to the University for one of the
fourteen Greek complex units. Last
spring, the chapter was notified they
received a unit with a second place finish
overall and ranked number one on the
interview portion.
Each of the fourteen units has a
basement with three upper floors and
houses 30 members each. The project
was financed by a bond issue from the
State of Ohio and will be repaid over the
next 30 years by the room rents that the
students pay each quarter.
This four-story unit will house 30 Pi
Kapps on the second and third floors.
The first floor and basement will serve as
common areas for members and alumni.
Furnishings for the residents' rooms are
provided by the University while the
Housing Corporation will be responsible
for the lower two levels.
Many brothers have worked on get-
ting the chapter into the project since the
beginning of last year and recognition
goes to Mark Urrutia, Pat Meehan, Eric
Ramlow, Doug King, and Fred Tiller of
the Housing Corporation; to Brendon
McCaskey and Brad Szczecinski of the
student chapter and to Area IV Governor
Mark Jabobs for dropping everything
and flying to Toledo on a moment's no-
tice to help out and lend his support.
Bradley moves into 35-man homeAfter years of supporting a chapter
in a house which only three brothers
could live in, Epsilon Mu-Bradley dreams
of a bigger house came true as well.
On September 8, 1990, the chapter
conducted its housebreaking ceremonies.
Last year, Bradley University began con-
structing more student housing on cam-
pus. The Epsilon Mu Housing Corpora-
tion negotiated with the University to
allow the Fraternity to rent an entire unit.
The University agreed.
The new structure will now house
35 members which is quite a change
from Epsilon Mu's old days of a small
three-man house.
In attendance at the housebreaking
ceremony were Pi Kappa Phi Executive
Director Durward Owen, Chapter Advi-
sor Dr. Doan Modianos, founding father
and Beta Epsilon Chapter Advisor Jason
McDowell, fellow Greek associates and
past and present members.
"I think a new spirit has been born as
the brothers are now finally able to live
together under one roof," McDowell said.
Epsilon Mu was founded at Bradley
on February 26, 1982. The chapter has
overcome many obstacles and address
changes to get where they presently re-
side.
ATTENTION: Young Alumni (and
those who wish they were!)
As you return to your campus and your
Fraternity chapter, there are some changes
which you may not be aware of. Please
recognize those changes and conduct your-
self accordingly when you visit.
The student chapters have a rather strict
risk management policy which they must
adhere to, regardless of third party involve-
ment. Several of these constitute a signifi-
cant change, in some instances, from what
you are accustomed to, especially in the area
of social activities.
The following are some of the most sig-
nificant expectations of which you should
be aware. Your Fraternity anticipates that
you will honor these and appreciates your
understanding and support:
The possession, use and/or consump-
tion of ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES, while
on chapter premises, during an official fra-
ternity event, or in any situation sponsored
or endorsed by the chapter, must be in com-
pliance with any and all applicable laws of
the state, province, county, city and univer-
sity.
No alcoholic beverages may be pur-
chased through the chapter treasury nor may
the purchase of same for members or guests
be undertaken or coordinated by any mem-
ber in the name of or on behalf of the chapter.
The purchase and/or use of bulk quantity of
such alcoholic beverage, i.e. kegs, is prohib-
ited.No chapter members, collectively or in-
dividually, shall purchase for, serve to, or
sell alcoholic beverages to any minor (i.e.
those under legal "drinking age").
No chapter may co-sponsor an event
with an alcohol distributor, charitable or-
ganization or tavern (tavern defined as an
establishment generating more than half of
annual gross sales from alcohol) where al-
cohol is given away, sold or otherwise pro-
vided to those present.
No member shall permit, tolerate, en-
courage or participate in "drinking games."
No alcohol shall be present at any
pledge/associate member program or activ-
ity of the chapter.
What can youdo as an alumnusof Pi Kappa Phi?
Ode to the Alma Mater
Sometimes the most important help an alumnus can give
is the assistance he gives the insitution to which the chapter
owes its existence.
An Alumni IFC
An alumnus can participate or support an alumni inter-
fraternity council which can only strengthen his own chapter.
Sharing your Knowledge
An alumnus can share his knowledge and the skills of his
profession which shows his loyalty to the chapter.
Playing it CoolAn alumnus can remain patient and understanding with
his chapter knowing that they are "learning the ropes" just like
he did once.
Promote Programming
An alumnus can make a financial contribution to the
chapter to help fund better chapter programs or to meet the
physical needs of the chapter.
Time Well SpentAn alumnus can give his personal service to the chapter
which expresses another way to show loyalty.
What's Going On?
An alumnus tries to stay informed of chapter activites by
contacting the chapter with his current address and activities.
Encouragement by Attendance
An alumnus attends alumni affairs sponsored by the
undergraduates and other alumni and offer encouragement in
planning more activities in the future.
Continuing Tradition
An alumnus can insure the chapter's existence continues
by recommending desirable men as prospective members.
Personal Interest
An alumnus should express his personal interest in current
activities of the chapter.

Washington undertakes a new
approach to acquire an annexIn an unusual effort to buy an annex for
the Alpha Delta Chapter at the University of
Washington, ten people participated in a
private investor pilot program this fall.
The goal of the program was to raise
$55,000 to purchase an annex for the chap-
ter. Because the chapter has been just rechar-
tered and it's fairly new on the campus, some
alumni knew it would be difficult to raise the
funds necessary to make the purchase.
Foundation Executive Vice President
Ted Scharfenstein spearheaded the project
and brought together five Alpha Delta alumni
as well as five other people to help raise the
revenues needed. Each participant contrib-
uted $2,500 to $10,000. The unsecured note
will be paid off in five years at an interest rate
of 12%.Money from the chapter will be depos-
ited in an escrow account with quarterly
payments being made to the investors to
reduce interest and principle.
Alpha Delta Alumni gave $20,000 of
the $55,000 needed.
"Timing is a real concern while trying to
do a private placement like this one,"
Scharfenstein said. "In my opinion, private
investors can play a significant role in fi-
nancing chapter houses in the future for the
Pi Kappa Phi Fraterntiy."

Legacies bring new twistA tale of three brothers
Jim O'Donnell was initiated into the
Zeta Delta Chapter at Shippensburg Univer-
sity in the spring of 1990. What's all the
commotion over this particular initiation?
The story begins in the spring of 1987
when Robert O'Donnell pledged and was
initiated into the Zeta Delta Chapter. Five
semesters later in the fall of I 989,. O'Don-
nell's younger brother John pledged and was
initiated into the same chapter. And in the
spring of 1990, their younger brother Jim
was initiated.Jim's initiation put three O'Donnell
brothers being active in the Fraternity in the
same chapter at the same time!
"John and Jim were not given bids sim-
ply because they are legacies!" Brother Tim
Carnevale said. "Our chapter immediately
recognized that these two men would be
valuable assets to our chapter just as their
older brother Robert was and is."
Robert graduated this past spring Cum
Laude this past spring and is attending
graduate school at Drexel. Alpha Upsilon-
Drexel along with St. Joseph's initiated Ship-
pensburg in 1986. John is now a junior while
Jim is sophomore.
The father-son connection
O.K., read this story very slowly.
Paul Lavery is Archon at the Delta Alpha
Chapter at Virginia Tech. His little brother
is Jim Hess, Jr. What makes this situation so
unique?Their fathers were pledge class brothers
at Beta Alpha Chapter at the New Jersey
Institute of Technology.
John Lavery (BA #258) and his son Paul
(DA #247) were both Archons at their re-
spective chapters.
Jim Hess, Sr., and his son Jim Hess, Jr.
■
Top to bottom: Bob,
John and Jim
both have the same initiation numbers (dif-
ferent chapters, of course). Jim, Sr. was BA
#262 while Jim, Jr., was DA #262. The
chapter did initiate Jim out-of-order so the
father-son team could have the same initia-
tion number."This is just another example of the
lifetime friends born in Pi Kappa Phi," Paul
Lavery said.

Strong Enough to Care
The mission of Ti Kappa Phi:
The expression or shared values and ideals
as contained in the lqtuai of Initiation,
Supreme Law and Fraternity policy;
'The pursuit of brotherhood through
sciwfarship, readership, service
anti social experiences;
'The achievement of personal exceffence
in each member and
collective excellence in our Fraternity;
A fiferong brotherhood of its members.
AT THIS POINTYOUR ALMA MATER DOESN'T MATTER.
There's one exam even the
best of colleges can't prepare
you for.Last year alone, America's
businesses lost more than $60billion to drugs.So this year, most of the
Fortune 500 will be adminis-
tering drug tests. Failing the
test means you won't beconsidered for employment.
And that's a matter of fact.

Foundation "Strong Enough to Care"
An open fetter to the Ti Kappa Phi Fraternity
Dear Brothers,
As we approach the holiday season, I want toacknowledge the welcome offered to me during thepast year. As you may know, I have been involvedwith Pi Kappa Phi, in one way or another, since mygraduation from Florida Southern College in 1961.On December 1, 1989, I assumed the position ofExecutive Vice President of the Foundation, andthereby became reinvolved with the day-by-dayacitivities of the Foundation and the Fraternity. 41104.
Pi Kappa Phi, as well as the fraternity world,have dramatically changed since I finished my earlier tour of duty as AssistantExecutive Secretary in 1965. Let me share some of my thoughts about Pi Kappa Phiwith you.
The fraternity world has always been complex and difficult to manage becauseof the geographic dispersion of the chapters and alumni. Turnover of membershipevery three or four years in each chapter is a reality that would test the mettle of anyexecutive. Problems of declining enrollment, risk management issues, substanceabuse, the cost of higher education, date rape, exposure to AIDS are challenges(threats) that students endure each day. Not only has the Fraternity coped with thesedramatic issues, but it has taken them in stride and is prospering.
The reason goes back to something I heard Founder Harry Mixson say at thesecond Pi Kapp College in 1961. Harry spoke eloquently of the character of meninvited to join this great Fraternity. Taking all manner of adversity as a fact of life,the Founders took the challenges one by one and built this Fraternity of thethousands of Pi Kappa Phi Brothers. And had a lot of fun in the process. Harry spokeof the never ending stream of qualified men who followed those in Old Charleston.And, so it is today.
As we approach Founders Day 1990, my respect for the men of Pi Kappa Phigrows even brighter each day. High principles, sound ethics and a willingness toextend oneself on behalf of those less fortunate mark the Fraternity Brother of theNineties. Old Harry would have been proud of what "his" Fraternity has become.It's been a geniune pleasure to work with the volunteer leaders, students, alumni andadministrators of Pi Kappa Phi. All in all, it's been a fine year for Pi Kappa Phi, andI thank you once again for your continued interest and support.
Yours in Pi Kappa Phi,
T.A. ScharfenstienExecutive Vice President
Fraternity gets $4 million giftAlpha Sigma Phi Fraternity has an-
nounced the receipt of a four million dollarunrestricted bequest. The gift, believed tothe largest single donation in the history ofthe American fraternity system, was madeby Howard Kleinoeder of Seattle, Washing-ton. Mr. Kleinoeder left a similar amount tothe University of Washington and the STARRFoundation of New York.
In announcing the gift, John Chaney,President of Alpha Sigma Phi, writes: "Thisopens the door of opportunity for each andevery one of us. No longer should alumninor our own imagination be restricted by the
thought of a $1 million gifts of bequests.Fraternities and sororities have long beenpartners with higher education and it is ourhope that college and university administra-tors, and the public in general, will recognizethis is a sign of our worth, value, and legiti-macy, and be more accepting of our organi-zations on their campus."
We congratulate Alpha Sigma Phi onreceiving the gift and on their plans to createa collection of programs in leadership, schol-arship and character enhancement. AlphaSigma Phi has 57 collegiate chapters with35,000 alumni.
Chapters pave the road toacademic excellence
Sixteen chapters have a leg up on the112 other chapters of Pi Kappa Phi. Thesechapters have individual scholarship fundswithin the Foundation. Chapter scholarshipfunds support specific educational programsand grant scholarships to deserving students.
The amount in the funds range from afew hundred dollars to over $160,000 forAlpha Epsilon at the University of Florida.The funds are established by each chapter'salumni corporation and become operationalwhen the balance reaches $10,000.
An example of an educational programis the in-house computer facility placed atAlpha Epsilon a few years ago. It was sosuccessful the chapter and alumni corpora-
tion have submitted a proposal to the Foun-dation to upgrade the equipment and facility.

Students complete third "Give-a-PUSH" Weekend
Pierce joins PUSH staffAfter a long baseball season with the
Atlanta Braves as a marketing representa-
tive, John Pierce movedto Charlotte to becomethe new Director of Chap-ter Services on Septem-ber 27, 1990. His first as-signment was to help co-ordinate the third "Give-
a-PUSH" weekend thenext day.
Pierce's responsibil-i tes include coordinatingchapter and PUSH Amer-ica fundraising effortsand helping chapters
• form volunteer relation-ships with local centers.
"I think the toughestpart of this job will be toconvince chapter members that they can
make a difference," Pierce said. "Through
their efforts, they can truly help those with
disabilities and can help other collegiatesto become people under-standing the serverelyhandicapped."Pierce hopes to top last
year's fundraising cam-paign and see more chap-ters establish volunteerrelationships.Pierce graduated from
Florida State Universitywhere he was PUSHChairman and Archon
for Beta Eta Chapter. Hesays PUSH has changeddramatically over theyears."All we did back thenwas raise money," he
said. "Now, the focus is on volunteerism
and fundraising."
On September 28-30, 1990, 60 Pi Kapps
representing 18 universities and eight states
volunteered their time and energy to build an
adaptive playground for the children of the
UPARC Center in Clearwater, Florida."This weekend gave the collegiate chap-
ters attending a true sense of 'sweat equity' as
they traveled long distances to work together
to construct a playground that was built from
hard work, sweat and brotherhood," Execu-
tive Director Ken Kaiser said.Pi Kappa Phi brothers and associate
members traveled from as far as Orange,
New Jersey, and Columbia, Missouri, to the
UPARC (Upper Pinellas Association for
Retarded Citizens) Center in Clearwater for
what turned out to be a weekend of building,
painting, landscaping and brotherhood. In
addition to the adaptive playground that was
built at the UPARC Center, three group
homes were painted and landscaped.The weekend was highlighted by an
appearance by Marion Mixson, son of founder
L. Harry Mixson, at the unveiling of "PUSH
Place.""I think that my father would be proud of
what you have done this weekend and proud
of the things that you are doing through
PUSH," Mixson said.Pi Kappa Phi's National Chaplain Dr.
Pat Figley and National Secretary Nathan
Hightower also visited the construction site.
Zeta Kappa-Stockton State (New Jer-
sey) received the mileage award traveling
the most distance. They also participated in
their third consecutive "Give-a-PUSH"
weekend.Only moments after the ribbon was cut,
many of the UPARC children began to play
and try out their new playground. For every-
one involved in this Give-a-PUSH weekend,
this was instant gratification for a weekend
of hard work and brotherhood.

E Chapter adopts summercamp for disabled children
Do you remember going to summer
camp when you were a child?
For children with disabilities, there
is a camp in Sumter, South Carolina, that
offers a positive "summer camp" experi-
ence. While many chapters have estab-
lished relationships with centers or
schools that serve the disabled, Sigma
Chapter at the University of South Caro-
lina has adopted Camp Burnt Gin.
On November 9, 1990, the men of
Sigma Chapter visited the camp for the
first time. As an introduction to their new
campaign, an "empathy training" dinner
was served. Chapter members were blind-
folded and given limited use of their
hands as they took on some type of dis-
ability."It really made us think about some
of the abilities we have, but often take for
granted," Archon Joel Borellis said.
The brothers traveled back to Co-
lumbia that night and returned Sunday
morning to Camp Burnt Gin. They
worked all day clearing a wheelchair-
accessible trail, painting the bath houses
and general pick-up around the camp.
"There are always many things that
are needed at the camp, but many of the
smaller projects often get pushed down
the priority list," Marie Ireland, coordi-
nator of Camp Burnt Gin, said.
"If it were not for the Pi Kappa Phi
chapter at the University of South Caro-
lina, these projects would not get done!"
Ireland added.Through their hard work, the Sigma
Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi is helping this
special camp meet the needs of handi-
capped children!

chapter spotlight "Strong Enough to Care"
Washington welcomes back a new "old" chapterOn April 7, 1990, Alpha Delta of Uni-
versity of Washington saw its rechartering
efforts come to fruition. They chartered with
44 ambitious young men with the help of
Leadership Consultant Joel Allen (Gamma
Beta-Old Dominion) and Chapter Advisor
Jeff Egilsrude (Omega-Purdue).
They acquired a house in the heart of
campus Greek Row in early September of
last year. With their chapter growing at such
an extensive rate, an annex was purchased in
May. House membership now stands at 62
brothers strong.Just a little over a year since the Admin-
istrative Office approached the men for re-
chartering, Alpha Delta has already gained a
strong reputation on the U of W campus.
Their efforts last year included the winning
of the Mr. Greek competition, taking fifth
out of 33 fraternities in their Greek Week
events, election of a member to the Univer-
sity's Board of Control and placing in the top
three in several intramural sports.
They are also gaining prominence by
trying to dispel many myths that are associ-
ated with general greek fraternities.Frank Parrish, Executive Vice Presi-
dent for Properties, and John Puckett, Area
VIII Governor, served as the chartering
officers.Assistant Executive Director Glenn
Dickson and Senior Leadership Consultant
Joel Allen also assisted with the chartering
process.Gamma Chapter from University of
California-Berkeley and Alpha Zeta Chap-
ter from Oregon State served as the initiat-
ing teams.Alpha Delta was chartered in 1924 and
folded in the early seventies due to the anti-
establishment values that were expressed on
campus at the time.The current men of Alpha Delta look
forward to a prosperous and successful year.
They hope to carry themselves with dignity
as they carry on the traditions and ideals of
Pi Kappa Phi on the University of Washing-
ton campus.
Fraternity returns to the state of ColoradoIn November of 1988, seven men con-
tacted Pi Kappa Phi about forming a chapter
at Colorado State University. Now, two
years later to the day, with only one of those
original seven men remaining, the chapter
received its charter as Zeta Phi with 54
initiates.The building process was slow, but
steady, with scholarship having presented an
early formidable challenge. The men of Zeta
Phi now rank third out of 18 chapters in
grades!They also boast a strong intramural
program having reached the playoffs in
baseball, softball and soccer. This fall, they
acquired a beautiful chapter house through
the generous support of Bill Cochran, who
became an alumnus member of the chapter at
their chartering initiation.The renovated Victorian-style home
sleeps 40 men and has a great location near
campus. The Zeta Phi men enjoy a reputa-
tion as "gentlemen."All their hard work paid off as National
Chaplain Pat Figley, Chi-Stetson, and Area
Governor VIII John Puckett, Iota-Georgia
Tech, came to Ft. Collins to serve as charter-
ing officers.Zeta Phi also enjoyed the outstanding
talents of the Delta Chi Chapter from Kansas
State and Alpha Omicron from Iowa State
who served as initiating teams.
Special guests in attendance at the char-
tering banquet included the Vice President
of Student Affairs Keith Miser, Greek Life
Coordinator Sonia Immache and Director of
Greek Life Dave Burfind. Senior Leader-
ship Consultant Alan Duesterhaus and As-
sistant Executive Director Glenn Dickson
assisted from the Administrative Office.
The chapter has been led by Chapter
Advisor Chris Coley from Texas Tech.
Albright becomes the newest Pi Kapp ChapterIt was in the Spring of 1989 that 11
freshmen at Albright College in Reading,
Pennsylvania, set out to join a fraternity.
After contacting numerous national Greek
organizations, the group found Pi Kappa Phi
most attractive.During the first week of April of 1989,
the Adminstrative Office sent Leadership
Consultant Dean Div is to evaluate this young
group of men.Now, nearly 17 months later, the 11
men eventually grew to 31 brothers and
became Pi Kappa Phi's newest chapter - Zeta
Chi Chapter. The initiation activities began
on November 8, 1990, and culminated on
November 10 with a chartering banquet which
over 100 people attended including brothers,
parents and college administrators.
During the banquet, Archon Sean
Moulton accepted the charter from Edward
Hook, Chapter Advisor for Zeta Epsilon-
George Mason, brother at Alpha Upsilon-
Drexel, and Assistant Chartering Officer.
Area Governor I Jim Krucher gave the
keynote speech. Krucher, Beta Alpha-NJIT,
also served as the chartering officer for the
weekend.Also in attendance at the banquet were
Director of Greek Services Walter "Pete"
Glass, the chapter's Scholarship Advisor Dr.
Katherine Greenfield and Chapter Advisor
James Marasco, Zeta Delta-Shippensburg.
Past Leadership Consultant Dean Divis
even attended the banquet which concluded
with Zeta Chi's Chaplain Carl Perino giving
the benediction.The initiation week included taking the
written national test, goal-setting sessions,
oral tests, the initiation and the banquet.
The chapter invited two alumnus initi-
ates to join their brotherhood as well.
Zeta Delta-Shippensburg traveled to
Reading to initiate the new brothers. Direc-
tor of Programs Elliot Curtis and Leadership
Consultant Greg Brown represented the Ad-
ministrative Office during the ceremonies.
During their young chapterhood, Zeta
Chi has already experienced great successes.
In their first PUSH fundraiser last spring,
they collected over $2,700. They are now the
second largest fraternity on the Albright
campus. In September of 1990, they gained
voting rights within the IFC.During their road to chartering, the group
took time out to go camping to Hawk Moun-
tain for a chapter retreat.Albright continues to make a name for
itself on the Albright campus by participat-
ing in intramurals and
Greek organizations.Albright also becomes the twelfth chap-
mixing with other ter to find a home in the state of Pennsylva-
nia and becomes Pi Kappa Phi's 129th active
chapter.
Student overcomes adversity to find
brotherhood at Delta Tau-James Madison
Matt Wagner is just like any other college student. He
goes to classes, drives his car.around campus, attends func-
tions at his Fraternity and even finds time to play bass in an
band.However, he is not just like any other student.
Wagner
lives his life from a wheelchair.
"People don't know what quite to say
when they first meet me," Wagner said.
"Sometimes, they try to be extra nice to
me by smiling a lot."
On May 1, 1986, Wagner encoun-
tered a pole vaulting accident during his
senior year in high school that changed
his life forever. In an effort to enroll in
James Madison University on time,
Wagner endured a whole summer of reha-
bilitation to become totally "self-suffi-
cient."In the fall of 1987, Wagner discov-
ered Pi Kappa Phi and liked the Delta Tau
Chapter, because "they really did not treat
me differently."
"I wanted a place to fit in....a place to
call home," Wagner said.
Though he might not be able to get up
to the second floor of the Fraternity house, Wagner still man-
ages to get around and share his moments with his fellow
brothers.When it comes time to socialize, Wagner does his fai
r
share in the crowd and in front of the crowd. Wagner plays
bass guitar along with three other Pi Kapps and a drummer in
a band called Funk Monkey. With a progressive style of
msusic, the band is slowly becoming a favorite at chapter
functions pounding out their own hits in the basement of the
house.Most people do not even notice Wagner when t
he band
is on a break from a set. Some people are a little startled by
his situation, but they soon overcome those emotions.
After a while, people begin to see the person," he said.
Wagner says it's tough to be part of a conversation,
because he is not on the same level.
"By the end of the night, your neck gets sore!" Wagner
said.
Wagner's pledge brother and close friend Bob West says
the wheelchair can be very deceiving to people who first meet
Wagner."He doesn't expect special attention, but he also
expects
others to see that he has limitations, just like anyone else
does, only in a different form," West said.
Wagner says he feels most awk-
ward when people try to push him around
or go out of their way to help him out.
"My biggest pet peeve is when
people hold a door open when lam twenty
yards away," Wagner said. "I don't mind
it if I am close, but when I could read a
novel before I got there..."
Wagner was initiated on April
23, 1988, into Delta Tau Chapter #309.
However, some brothers were unsure of
Wagner in the beginning.
"At first, we had reservations.
But, we looked beyond that and outside of
his disability," Historian Steve Sprince
said."I think he provides an inspira-
tion to us all without even trying to do so,"
Sprince added.
Though he has not held any leadership positions, Sprince
describes Wagner has a "good follower" which all chapters
need.Wagner says brotherhood means a lot to different people,
but he has his own special meaning.
"I believe a fraternity should always be there for you no
matter what time of the night," Wagner explained. "You can
always rely on your brothers."
The junior from Reston, Va., will graduate soon with his
geography degree with a minor in history. He hopes to get a
job with a federal intelligence agency.
Wagner hopes that one day people will not feel uncom-
fortable around those with disabilities.
"When I go out of a room, I want people to remember
me," Wagner said.
Before our conservation ended, Wagner asked for last
request. "If anyone in the Virginia area ever needs a band,
don't hesitate to call Funk Monkey. We're pretty good."

Should Pi Kappa Phi return to Charleston?
In the Summer 1990 issue of the Star & Lamp, we introduced a new section of themagazine. A question was posed in which we asked you the reader to write in youropinion. Last month's question was:
Does Ti Kappa Phi offer today's member a sense of tradition (i.e. ritual, history,alumni)? Because the Administrative Office is not located in Charleston, the city ofour fountling, does this affect our tradition?
I would like to offer my opinion for whatit's worth on the question as to whether theAdministrative Office of Pi Kappa Phi shouldbe moved to Charleston, South Carolina, ourFraternity's original home. I am, of course,biased in my feelings, being a nephew ofFounder Simon Fogarty and having lived formany years at 90 Broad Street in Charleston,where Pi Kappa Phi was founded, where Sigrew up and where my parents were married.I. graduated from the College of Charlestonwhere I was initiated into Alpha Chapter 27October 1928. So, I would most dearly loveto see the Fraternity purchase from its pres-ent owner the building, 90 Broad Street, andmake it into our national headquarters, bring-ing to Charleston the Administrative officeand focusing the attention of all Pi Kapps onthe real home of our great Fraternity.
Having Charleston as the location of ournational headquarters would be a tribute toFounders Fogarty, Kroeg and Mixson and tothe charter members of Pi Kappa Phi.
I sincerely hope that I shall see in mylifetime the return of the central office to itsoriginal home.
Fraternally,
John Fogarty ReynoldsLt. Col., A US-Ret.Alpha 117
I believe Pi Kappa Phi does offer itsmembers a sense of tradition, both as a na-tional organization, and through the heritageof individual chapters. As a pledge of 1977my awareness of the history of the Fraternitywas mainly learned through study of thepledge manual. I was so impressed that Imade several trips to Charleston over thenext several years.
I believe that the national office shouldbe relocated to Charleston as close to theCollege to Charleston as possible. Thiswould give all of the visitors to the nationaloffice a better appreciation for the atmos-phere and culture which gave birth to thePi Kappa Phi Fraternity.
If the national office were located inCharleston perhaps a museum of fraternityhistory could establish which would be opento the public. Hopefully such a museumwould include historic memorabilia fromvarious chapters. This museum could beopened to other fraternities to establish theirown exhibits on either a rotational or perma-nent basis to promote awareness of the his-tory and contributions of the entire fraternitysystem.
Yours very truly,

Please accept my donation to the Pi Kappa Phi Foundation. I realize that the strongerthe contribution, the more impactful it can be. As I become more established, it is myexpectation to continue to increase my donation to the greatest fraternity in the world.
Nothing will ever match the experiences that I had, and continue to have through myconnection with Pi Kappa Phi. Each time I return to campus, be it for recruiting, homecomingor Founder's Day, I find that the Fraternity continues to strive to uphold the same morals andvalues as when I was an undergraduate. Further, my experiences as Warden and Archon havebeen very valuable to becoming a success in the business world. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Alumnus takes four years to write this letterAs a Brother in Pi Kappa Phi at Gamma Gamma Chapter, Troy State University, and
Graduate and now Alumni, I would like to share my views and feelings on what it has meant
for me to be a part of Pi Kappa Phi from 1983-1986.When I was a pledge, my pledge Warden Gerard Holtzman told our Class that everything
we were about to confront and participate in had a soul purpose. That we may not understand
in the beginning, but would realize its importance when and if we became a Brother. Our
pledgeship during the fall of 1983 was strenuous mentally and physically. Although all 32
men did not make it through, the ones that did were Pi Kapps that I was proud to call my pledge
Brothers and Brother.Pi Kappa Phi and the Brothers during the time I was a student Pi Kapp taught me many
wonderful experiences. But the most important to me was that we all cared for one another
and when we played our Fraternity song, "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother," we felt the unity
and bonding between us.Thanks to Pi Kappa Phi, it's made a difference in my life. I hope that past, present and
future Brothers of Pi Kappa Phi experience the Brotherhood that I have had and continue the
Ideals and Principles in which Pi Kappa Phi represents.
Yours in Pi Kappa Phi,
Cary T. Wilson
The importance of ritual and history ofPi Kappa Phi is demonstrated by the brothersand not by the location of the AdministrativeOffice. Charlotte has served the Fraternitywell and should only become a stronger cityentering the 90's. The city's success as acenter for finance and transportation andsuccess in sports, entertainment and the artshas been unprecidented (sic). With regard toalumni suppok, only one state (Florida) hadmore alumni donations in 1989. If the officeto move in Charlotte, I would suggest a moreprominent/visable location.
Fraternally yours,

Of course, the Fraternity offers a senseof tradition. A more important question iswhether or not fraternity members choose tobe a part of that tradition. As with so manythings, a fraternity can only mean somethingto an individual if that person exercises theopportunity to be involved.
The old saying, "You have to put some-thing into it before you can get something outof it," applies to a fraternity. A commonbond of brotherhood can only be formed ifactions and events within a fraternity pro-mote brotherhood. Those who have experi-ence true brotherhood realize it has nothingto do with parties, rituals or odd rites of

passage. Those may be a means to the endproduct. That end product is friendship. Inthe final analysis, it is friendship that formsthe base for a sense of loyalty and tradition.It's a shame so few realize this.
