Hundreds Return for Alpha Delta Reunion O n a spectacularly beautiful Saturday in mid-September, the Bulldog faithful traveled to UGA’s Sanford Stadium for an evening matchup Between the Hedges with the USC Gamecocks. No more need be said about the game, as the clear highlight of the day was the Reunion at the Lodge on South Milledge, a few blocks from the stadium. Charlie Callahan, ΑΔ’77, (second row at left) was organizer of the event, re-creating a ’70s game-day party from Lumpkin Street days. Alumni Board President Doug “Yogi” Patterson ’78 was MC, Parents’ Club President Teri Butler spoke about the undergrads, and D.E. Whitfield ’71 spoke about the capital campaign for the Lodge. Charlie’s theme for the event was “Rock like the old men did in the ’70’s,” and while the Dirk Howell Band captured just the right sound, there was a lot more reminiscing and catching-up than rocking. The general mood was “let’s do this again soon.” 4 The Purple and Gold Fall 2007 In the Chi Psi Eye Prince Albert, X’81, Vladimir Putin Enjoy a Reel Good Time in Siberia CHI PINSTHIE EYE H anging out and eating hamburgers with the family in Kennebunkport may be all very well for some heads of state, but other world leaders prefer to go fishing in Siberia. Taking a break from the pressures of running countries and principalities, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prince Albert of Monaco, Chi ’81, abandoned formal suits and restricting ties of high office in favor of some camouflage chic to go fishing in Siberia in August. The wilderness adventure is one of a variety of adventurous pursuits laid out for the Monégasque royal while he went on holiday with the Russian premier. The trip, which included white-water rafting, was seen as a thank-you for the 49-year-old royal’s support of Russia’s bid to host the 2014 Winter Olympic Games. The nature-lovers traveled to Kyzyl, located about 2,900 miles southeast of Moscow. Albert also visited Putin at Peterhof, an 18th-century czarist summer estate on the shore of the Gulf of Finland, near Putin’s hometown of St. Petersburg. There Putin thanked Albert -- who represents Monaco on the International Olympic Committee – for backing Russia’s successful bid to host the 2014 Winter Olympics in the Black Sea resort of Sochi. After landing several fish, Albert In the Chi Psi Eye Monaco's Prince Albert II (left), with Russian President Vladimir Putin (right) and Emergency Situations Minister Sergei Shoigu, fishing in the Yenisey River (not the day’s biggest catch). joined the former KGB officer for a dinner under the stars by the roaring glow of an open camp fire. Never a slouch in the outdoors stakes himself, Prince Albert is an avid polar explorer and made a dogsled trip to the North Pole last year. In school, he was an enthusiastic athlete, participating in cross country, javelin, handball, swimming, tennis, rowing, sailing, skiing, squash, judo, and fencing. He competed in the bobsled at the 1988, ’92, ’94, ’98, and 2002 Winter Olympics. He has been a member of the International Olympic Committee since 1985. (His maternal grandfather and maternal uncle were both Olympic medal winners in rowing and were involved in the Olympic movement.) In 1977, Prince Albert enrolled at Amherst College as Albert Grimaldi, studying political science, economics, music, and English literature. He joined Chi Psi and lived in the old Lodge before he graduated in 1981 with a bachelor of arts degree in political science. On 6 April 2005, upon the death of his father, Prince Rainier III, Hereditary Prince Albert became Albert II, Sovereign Prince of Monaco. ■ Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 5 Fifty Years as The Beaver -- Jerry Mathers, ΔΔ’73: Central Character of TV’s Longest-Running Show T he fourth of October 1957 is remembered for two events that changed world history – the launching of Sputnik by the Soviet Union and the launching of Leave It to Beaver by the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS). Although the successful launch of Sputnik 1 did launch the “Space Race,” Sputnik is just a memory today. But Leave It to Beaver is still going strong as the longestrunning scripted show in television. It ran a year on CBS, five more years on ABC, and then immediately to re-runs (currently on TV Land). It’s been heard in almost fifty languages and has been seen in at least 108 countries around the globe. The titular star of the show, of course, is Gerald P. “Jerry” Mathers, Delta Delta ’73. He was seven years old when the program began, but already an established actor, having played Shirley MacLaine’s son in Hitchcock’s The Trouble with Harry, Dan Duryea’s son in This is My Love, and Bob Hope’s son in The Seven Little Foys. When the initial run of Leave It to Beaver ended, Jerry dropped out of show business and went on to high school, where he tried to fit in as a normal kid, playing sports, dating girls. He suffered from dyslexia in his early life. After graduating from Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, California, in 1967, he attended Berkeley where he joined Chi Psi and earned a BA degree in philosophy. In his first year in the Lodge he played football, but he tended to get picked on by the opposing teams. There were bloody noses, but he was a tough center/nose guard. Jerry was in the National Guard, and when Los Angeles had an earthquake in 1971, Jerry was called up and had to return to LA for a year. He returned to Cal in the fall of 1972 and lived in the Lodge. Larry Batina, ΔΔ’74, remembered how Jerry and two roommates “kept all their beer cans and created a huge triangular pile – very impressive!! As much as possible, he was a ‘regular’ student and one of the guys, although he Left: As Wilbur in Hairspray on Broadway with Paul Vogt’s Edna. With Beaver co-star Tony Dow; Right: On the Live with Regis and Kelly show. 6 The Purple and Gold Fall 2007 In the Chi Psi Eye Above, Tony Dow and Jerry Mathers make a presentation on the 2007 TV-Land Awards show. Leave It to Beaver is built around young Theodore Cleaver (Jerry Mathers). We’re told that when he was a baby, his older brother, Wally (Tony Dow), mispronounced “Theodore” as “Tweedor.” Those firm-but-loving parents, Ward (Hugh Beaumont) and June Cleaver (Barbara Billingsley), for some reason felt that “Beaver” sounded better. was great with the sororities for obvious reasons!” Mathers became the subject of an urban legend when it was falsely reported that he died in Vietnam. In reality, he tried to enlist in the Marines, but was rejected because of his celebrity: Officers feared the inevitable negative repercussions if such an icon of innocence was killed in the war. Instead, Jerry served stateside in the Air National Guard, where he survived safely. In 1969, incorrect reports of his death were put out by Associated Press and United Press International when a similarly-named soldier was killed. The rumor was so widespread and believable that Tony Dow, sitcom brother Wally, sent flowers to the Mathers family upon hearing the news. After college he worked for a while as a bank loan officer, leaving hundreds of people with the odd experience of having their loan applications rejected or accepted by the Beaver. In the late 1970s, Mathers and Beaver brother Tony Dow started touring together in dinner plays. In 1983, the cast of Leave It to Beaver, sans the late Hugh Beaumont, made a TV movie called Still the Beaver, which was followed by several years of The New Leave It to Beaver. In recent years, he has starred in Playing Patti (1998) and Better Luck Tomorrow (2002). He has also been in Back to the Beach (1987), It's Howdy Doody Time (1987), Down the Drain (1990), Sexual Malice (1994), Playing Patti (1998), Better Luck Tomorrow (2002), Angels with Angles (2005), Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector (2006), Will to Power (2006), and The Von Trapp Family Christmas (with a release date of December 2007). Diagnosed with diabetes in 1996, he took preventative action, lost 45 pounds and became one of the leading lecturers on living and dealing with diabetes. He has partnered with diverse groups to bring awareness of the epidemic to the public, and he is currently the national spokesperson for a blood glucose monitoring system. His commercial work includes spots for advertisers In the Chi Psi Eye such as Pet Condensed Milk, General Electric, Purina, Kern, Chevrolet, Toyota, General Mills, AOL, Coca Cola, Jim Beam Biogen, and Kellogg’s (he and Tony Dow were the first non-athletes on a box of corn flakes). He’s a highly requested speaker at national conventions, where he addresses the emotional state of the American family and the effects of television on society, using the fabled Cleavers from his early television career. He has had recurring spots on The Tonight Show with host Jay Leno. In his first venture on Broadway, Mathers joined the musical cast of Hairspray for a three-month run this summer, playing the part of Wilbur Turnblad. Mathers is the second cast member of the original Leave It to Beaver show to appear on Broadway. In 1936, Barbara Billingsley appeared in the Broadway play Straw Hat, which closed after only five shows. In 1962, near the end of the run of the original show, he recorded two songs for a single 45 rpm: “Don't ’Cha Cry,” a retread of Spanish Harlem; and for the flip side, the twist ditty, “Wind-Up Toy” (“Wind-up Toy! Wind-up Toy! Say, when you gonna treat me like a real live boy.”) During his high school years, Mathers had a band called “Beaver and the Trappers.” They recorded for Atlantic Records, including one called Happiness is Havin’, which was the number one single in Hawaii and Alaska for a while. The song was co-written by Mathers and Richard Correll (Richard Rickover in the sitcom). Mathers's band recorded for about three-and-a-half years and played sock-hops and parties in southern California. Brother Mathers noted that the phenomenon of Leave It to Beaver is worldwide. “I can go anywhere in the world, and people know me,” he said. “In Japan the show’s called ‘The Happy Boy and His Family.’ So I’ll be walking through the airport in Japan, and people will come up and say, ‘Hi, Happy Boy!’” Jerry Mathers is the father of three children, Noah (1978), Mercedes (1982), and Gretchen (1985). ■ Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 7 Travis Starkey, Sigma ’07, former #1 at UNC, began working in June with Teach For America in the Mississippi Delta, a commitment which spans from June 2007 to June 2009. Travis writes: “On the surface, my job appears to be very basic. I wake up early every morning to teach 23 second-graders how to read, write, add, subtract, and work hard. When you consider, though, how the past six months have taken me from being a lazily-dressed college student living in the Sigma Lodge in comfortable Chapel Hill to being a tie-wearing teacher who spends his entire day with 8-year-olds in Clarksdale, MS, I think you might understand how I felt that my daily life suddenly became worthy of sharing with other people. In other words, I feel like I have worthwhile material to share; and my hope is that anyone who happens upon the Dispatches finds them intriguing, informative, and maybe even an inspiration to pay more attention to the achievement gap millions of our children face across this country. I will never call it an easy job, but I do know that I’m in the right place for now, so I hope you enjoy this glimpse into my daily life.” INITIAL IMPRESSIONS (Posted 15 July 2007) nderstand that when I say this, I reserve any and all rights to take it back (although I doubt I’ll need them); but the Delta has legitimately blown my expectations to pieces. As I told Stewart last night, I will either have to cut this experience off at two years or understand that I will be here for the next ten. I honestly don’t know where to begin. “Rich culture” does not even begin to describe the nature of this place. Numerous times on our four-hour tour, I looked at other CMs on the bus, who, in turn, nodded back at me, in shock, as the following was revealed to us: “In a great flood in 1927, the entire Delta was placed under water when levees couldn’t withstand the force of the Mississippi. If you’ve ever heard the song “When the Levee Breaks,” perhaps by Led Zeppelin – yeah, that’s what that’s about. • Robert Johnson, a renowned early blues musician, sold his soul to the devil in exchange for incredible musical ability in the 1920s (or so the story goes). • A place called Po’ Monkeys, where a man who lives in a room no larger than a double bed performs blues and other music and wears outrageous purple, white, and silver suits on Thursday nights, can be found in the middle of a cotton field near Cleveland. • SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) worked during their Freedom Summer in the Delta. • Prompted by SNCC, Fannie Lou Hamer attempted to register to vote, was fired from her sharecropping job for doing so, and became a leading activist in the efforts to not only increase black political participation, but also deconstruct the widely-held notion that blacks were not voting because they more or less didn’t feel like it. • US Hwy 61, which runs the length of the Delta, is the same Hwy 61 referenced by Bob Dylan’s “Highway 61 U 8 The Purple and Gold Fall 2007 Revisited.” (And yes, for those of you Dylan fans out there, I understand it passes by his childhood home in Minnesota; but he spent time in the Delta, as well.) • In 1860, the Delta was uninhabitable swampland. • Mound Bayou, Miss., was founded as the first incorporated township founded by ex-slaves, and later it became the hub of black power in the mid-20th century. One Harvard medical professor who was taking a tour of the Delta with our guide told him that, when he acted up, his mother told him “You were born in Mound Bayou,” but never explained it to him. He also had grown up in Memphis. What this means is not only was the town well-respected in the black community (to the point that it could be used as an admonition), but also that his mother had traveled over 100 miles to make sure he was born in Mound Bayou so she could say that to him. I say all of this only to demonstrate how deep the cultural roots are here – be they musical, social, political, or otherwise. I come away from my first day in the Delta truly impressed (it also probably didn’t hurt that we talked about each of these events/ideas/etc. while we were in the actual spot where the thing happened, exist(ed), etc. I also come away with a greater understanding of why I felt such a strange pull towards this place in the fall – a pull I still can’t quite understand or identify as more than that and perhaps never will. Everything is simultaneously new and familiar to me, which makes much of this a surreal experience as I am introduced to this truly soulful location. In other words, I do feel as though I’m in the right place and am thrilled to have that feeling, as difficulties I’m certain to experience in the future will be much easier to face if I am happy and at peace with my placement. On the more official TFA side, I have continued to meet more Corps Members that I did not meet during In the Chi Psi Eye my time at Institute, as I lived with Dane on the New Mexico floor; and I am only more excited about the great personalities that have come down a variety of paths to this place. I say this understanding fully what kind of reactions it might elicit from friends and family in bigger cities doing more “exciting” things, but what a privilege it is to be here. TOMORROW (7 August 2007) just realized that tomorrow I officially become Mr. Starkey. At 9 AM tomorrow, 28 wide-eyed 7-year-olds are going to look at me, a white male in a school of black female teachers, and wonder “What is he doing here?” and “What is he going to do next?” and “What can I get away with?” I’m going to look at them and say, “Good morning, everyone! I’m Mr. Starkey, and you are my Star Students. I’m so excited to be here with you at Myrtle Hall Elementary this morning. Ms. Jones and I have been waiting all summer to meet you, so it is great to see all of your smiling faces. This year we are going to learn SO much, more than you’ve ever learned before, so I hope you’re excited to be here, too…” This is why I moved across the country. Back to the Deep South. Transplanting my life from comfortable Chapel Hill to the Heart of the Delta. To teach these children how to read, write, add, subtract, and hope. Wish you were here. I In the Chi Psi Eye Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 9 POTATO SALAD (9 August 2007) story from my second day of school: Yesterday, one subject I discussed with my students was the importance of healthy eating habits, especially as they pertain to keeping your brain working well. This meant that, at lunch, I was insistent that they eat all of the food they could, as the Clarksdale Municipal School District has mandated healthier meals in cafeterias. Many children struggled with the baked beans (considered “health food” in the Delta); but, by the end, only 2 of 18 hadn’t finished them. Today, I decided that I would press my point further by eating the lunch myself to demonstrate that any cafeteria lunch can and should be eaten. This was a gross miscalculation on my part. Today’s lunch consisted of a sandwich with meat that could only be described as something between ham and corned beef, banana pudding, and what I think was potato salad. This potato salad was not like other potato salads. It had the consistency of scooped cole slaw and (I think) crunchy pieces of onion and parts of boiled egg. I was also given twice as much as the students were. Needless to say, there was no chance, after our first lunch experience, that I could not eat this massive scoop of mystery salad. So I did it. I ate half of it and stood up to check my students’ progress on the same dish. Not good. I encouraged them by saying that, if I could eat it, they could eat it. This was good enough for some, but not for all. So I decided I would get a big spoonful of it, bring it towards the middle of where they were seated, and eat it right there in front of them, which I did to the sounds of several “ewww”s and a couple “I don’t want to eat that”s. I then walked back to my spot at the table and finished off the delicacy. All this to say, don’t write a check your body shouldn’t cash, especially around 8-year-olds. I suppose it was all too fitting that after lunch I read to them the Shel Silverstein poem “Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout Would Not A Take the Garbage Out,” prompting more grossed-out noises from them. This is my life. I hang out with 8-year-olds all day, and sometimes we learn something substantive. Most of the time, though, I just pretend like I know what I’m doing and throw in something unexpected every once in a while. A BAD-HAIR DAY AND A SHOCKING REALIZATION (21 August 2007) iven that I was tempted to write a post yesterday entitled “Travis and the Terrible, No Good, Very Bad Day,” I’m pleased to share some humor that transpired in my classroom today. Yesterday was picture day at Myrtle Hall, so most of the kids were dressed up — this includes fancy hairstyling. One girl’s mother went a little overboard with the weave, in what I believe was a little much for an 8year-old. In any event, she had an arched bulge of hair that began its climb an inch to an inch and a half from her hairline and rose to a height of an inch or so, and was followed by an ornate arrangement further back that simply defies verbal description. As fate would have it, this child, whom my conscience will not allow me to name, came to school with the same hair styling today. I wondered to myself how something that fragile-looking could last. This explains my lack of surprise when, while other students were working in their reading workbook, she began fiddling with the front of her rapidly-deteriorating hair-do, a concerned look falling across her face. Within minutes she had an 8-10-inch shot of hair coming out at about a 45-degree angle from her hairline, prompting my assistant to tell her that she looked like a black Elvis. Silly me, thinking that this was the end, I turned away to tend to other students. But as it turns out, the arch had been the product of stuffing an artificial bump running the span of her head from temple to temple in a vertical arch. I glanced back just in time to see her pulling the weave from where the arch had just been, to G a cacophony of grossed-out noises from other, now distracted, students. I promptly took the weave from her, placed it in a jar that I had intended to use as an incentive tool (1 bean for each child with perfect behavior) until I realized they would graduate high school before we filled it, turned around, saw her pulling out the last strands, placed them in the same jar, shut the jar, and announced “This is a classroom — not a barbershop.” Later, during a lesson on statement and question sentences, my students were working independently to create their own sentences of each type. Granted, at such a young age, intention of the speaker or author is often lost on them, so I anticipated seeing a fair share of mistakes, a prediction which held true. While observing them, I read so many sentences that I began to see their work as more the products of inner monologue than anything, which explains why I laughed so hard I had to leave the class when, after seeing a number of “I like to play football”s and “I like to play with friends”s, I came across one that said “My mom is a lady?” IMAGINARY FRIENDS, THE BIRD, AND RAZOR BLADES (18 September 2007) irst of all, I have to mention that I finally feel like I have control of my classroom. I’ve begun to move away from doling out consequences via my card chart, instead focusing on my classroom incentives. For those of you interested in those kinds of things, mine are basically “Caught Being Good” points that can be used to buy pencils, erasers, and super sweet notebooks. I’m finding that, when I recognize good behavior (sometimes by even stopping a lecture to reward the children who are paying attention), I raise the bar for everyone else. This runs opposite singling out negative behavior, which I believe lowers the bar in that the only student actions that get attention are negative ones. All of this was so effective today that I was able to say “I love the way…” and “I’m looking to see who’s paying attention,” and every single child was doing what I asked. Not only do I consider this ridiculous, I’m also anticipating some type of karma-related boomerang effect. I’ll keep you posted on how that unfolds during my 60% day tomorrow. But now for the three truly notable occurrences of the day: 1. Today, we learned about how to write a friendly letter, with a heading, greeting, body – the works. After reading through a model yesterday, we gave it a shot on our own today. As I printed off the blank templates for them last night, I knew I was in for a surprise. Cashane, who is becoming a repeat performer in the comedy that is my life, delivered. As I walked around the class, making sure each child was on task, I passed by his desk, and he told me the following: “Mr. Starkey, I have an imaginary friend. His name is Cash. He’s inside my F In the Chi Psi Eye body.” If that wasn’t enough, before they read silently at the end of the day, I stressed to them how they needed to learn how to read inside their head, like they had a voice talking to them inside their head. Turning to Cashane, I said, “You can pretend Cash is talking to you. He’s in your brain, right?” His eyes widened and his mouth dropped as he realized that he just might actually have another person somehow living in his brain. 2. As I read aloud today, I read to them an excerpt from “Days With Frog & Toad,” which I highly recommend if you’re looking for some light, second-grade reading during your leisure time. Wanting them to follow along as I read each word, I came up with the disappointingly impromptu concept of “Reading Fingers.” After explaining how to use Reading Fingers — a new concept to all of us, I asked everyone to hold theirs up. A few moments later, I was surprised to note that two of my students were looking confusedly at their extended middle fingers, bookended by their less-extended fingers. One of the boys, Terrence, held his up to me and said innocently, “This is my reading finger, Mr. Starkey.” and began to model how he was going to follow along. Rapidly losing it, I looked to Mrs. Jones, shoulders shrugged and palms opened, and she took charge, “Put those fingers down and use your index finger!” she said. 3. For the third time, I went to a real deal barber in town today. “Real deal” in my book is: A. A barber with the swirling pole outside his door; B. An old guy who tells random stories; C. Someone who doesn’t ask you what kind of haircut you want, you just get whatever he gives; D. Someone who uses a straight razor without notice. Having already been twice with no close encounters with open blades (or requests for hairstyle or length, for that matter), I wasn’t expecting D, but I got the Works today. Marty and I talked about teaching, running, and Clarksdale as he cut away, only to end the visit with some surprise warm shaving cream and an open razor that came a little too close for comfort. ■ For all his Dispatches, go to: http://dispatchesfromthedelta.teachfor.us/ Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 11 Terry Bean, Eta Delta ’70, Honored for Activism by Basic Rights Oregon at Masquerade Event B asic Rights Oregon held its 25th Annual Awards Dinner and Auction on 13 October 2007, and the guest of honor was Terrence P. Bean, ΗΔ’70 (at right, center, being presented award plaques). More than 900 attended the Masquerade event to support Basic Rights Oregon in its continued work for equality and to honor Terry Bean for his three decades of committed activism. The event raised more than $300,000 toward the organization’s continuing efforts for equality laws in Oregon, such as the new antidiscrimination and domestic partnerships laws that will go into effect on 1 January 2008. Chi Psis attending the event included Bill Stephens, ΗΔ’72, and his wife, Jill. Pictures are from Basic Rights Oregon’s Masquerade 2007 event.

The loyalty and generosity of Brothers Jeffrey, Ray, Ahlberg, Preble, and all the others listed on the next pages, helped transform a decade-long dream into a reality. It is a terrific facility from which to preserve the legacy and build the future of Chi Psi. Regional Conferences were reinstituted for the first time in many years. We had excellent turnouts and programs in Chapel Hill, Madison, New Brunswick, and Atlanta. These conferences will build on their initial successes and expand to five this new school year. We will have two Visitors on the road this year attending to the needs of our Alphas and working with our new colony at Union. We have been working closely with a great group of Union alumni to help ensure a proper return to Chi Psi’s founding college. Following the success of the alcohol education program facilitated last year by Cal Hackstaff, ΨΔ’06, we have begun implementing the next generation program, E.R.A. (Education. Responsibility. Action.), with a new cadre of volunteer facilitators. Our new Web community seems to be working very well, as new Brothers keep joining every day. If you haven’t joined yet, please visit the site and check it out. It’s free, private to Chi Psis, and without obligation. Through the Web community, you can network with your Brothers, keep up with what’s going on in all areas of the Fraternity, download Chi Psi songs, and much more. Actives also use it to download forms, file reports, etc. The Fraternity and the Educational Trust continue to operate in the black, keeping costs to a minimum, but we must increase the level of support we receive from alumni if we are to maintain and increase necessarily our services to undergraduates and alumni. Operating a fraternity in the ever-changing college world continues to offer new challenges on a daily basis. We are ever grateful for your continuing loyalty to Chi Psi. May we count on your support again this year?

For the last decade, the leadership of Chi Psi has endeavored to stabilize the financial health of the organization. Through great individual and collective sacrifice, Chi Psi has regained stability and can again look to its future programming and service needs. Our new Central Office at Jeffrey Hall provides an opportunity for Chi Psi alumni to give in support of our Fraternity’s mission and to receive unique recognition in their new home. Last fall, Chi Psi launched the Jeffrey Hall Campaign for The Chi Psi Educational Trust. So far, alumni have committed over $644,000 towards the $800,000 goal. Thanks to the generosity of 86 alumni, including four major gifts by living #7s (below), the campaign is ahead of schedule and could very well exceed its goal! Below and at right are those who made a commitment to the Jeffrey Hall Campaign through early fall. This summer marked the transition of the campaign from the silent-appeal phase to the public solicitation effort. Members of Chi Psi’s National Leadership are currently leading a letter-writing campaign to solicit former staff members and national board volunteers. Unique recognition opportunities have been created in Jeffrey Hall, and it is our sincere hope that all Chi Psi Family members will invest in their new Nashville home. There are several naming opportunities remaining in Jeffrey Hall. From the fireplace in the Executive Director’s Office to the Alpha Visitor’s Bullpen, unique recognition opportunities remain. Efforts are under way to honor the memory of Brothers who have died and/or have made significant contributions to Chi Psi. To learn more about the Jeffrey Hall Campaign or how you might make a gift, call the Central Office at 615-736-2520. Help us build for the future by securing the present. Contribute to the Jeffrey Hall Campaign and secure your legacy in our new home! Jeffrey Hall Robert H. Jeffrey II, Θ’51 Malcolm D. Jeffrey, Θ’54 Peter S. Mykrantz, Θ’52 Walter Jeffrey, Θ’59 David L.

Phister, E’51, Memorial Drive – Former Council Chair Fred Phister played a very central role in Chi Psi for more than twenty-five years, and he was known to thousands of Chi Psis through their encounters at Convention and his frequent Alpha visits. In honor of his many contributions to Chi Psi, a mini campaign, chaired by Michael C. Hurst ΤΔ'87, is underway. Brothers from several Alphas have teamed up to raise money in honor of Brother Phister, and $10,000 has been pledged so far toward a recognition opportunity in Jeffrey Hall. Members of the planning committee hope that those who felt the effects of Brother Phister’s example will join in contributing to this effort. Consider helping with the goal of naming a room in the new Jeffrey Hall in memory of Brother Phister and his impact on the undergraduate experience. The planning committee is recruiting Brothers to assist in coordination of this effort. If you would like to participate in the management of this effort, please contact Sam Bessey or Donald Beeson at the Central Office.

Williams, Theta ’02, was the eleventh President of Chi Psi (1949-52) and chaired The Chi Psi Educational Trust for 35 years. His leadership and vision propelled Chi Psi to the forefront among fraternities in its educational offerings. Upon his death, the Educational Trust undergraduate scholarship was renamed in his memory, but it was never endowed. Since 1966, the scholarship has been awarded to more than 240 Brothers, but the funding has always been provided from the general funds of the Educational Trust. In honor of the 80th Anniversary of the Trust, we have embarked on a campaign to endow the Clifford Williams Scholarship. We are approaching all former Trust scholarship and fellowship recipients to “give back” their scholarship to assist with creating this endowment. We are also approaching other Brothers who have been actively involved with the Educational Trust. If you would consider participating in the endeavor, please email the Central Office at williamsscholarship@chipsi.org or call at 615-736-2520. C The following Brothers have already made a commitment to help endow the Cliff Williams Scholarships. Won’t you join them? Samuel C. Bessey, ΗΔ’97 William S.

Chi Psi Fraternity & Educational Trust Music City Entertains 166th Convention C hi Psis from around the country gathered this summer at Vanderbilt University in Nashville for the 166th Annual Convention of Chi Psi Fraternity from 2–5 August 2007. This was Chi Psi’s third Tennessee Convention (others at Sewanee and Memphis) but first in Nashville, although probably not its last, with the Central Office now a Nashville fixture. Registration was held at the Central Office to give many delegates a first look at Chi Psi’s new headquarters facility. The Preble Board Room and Ray Family Alumni Room served as excellent meeting spaces for the Executive Council’s Thursday meetings. The Spencer Institute leadership sessions for both undergrads and alumni began on Thursday evening, followed by a Chi Psi Trivia Tourney in the Overlook Oak room of the Student Union. Spencer sessions on Friday were held in Vanderbilt classrooms, not too far from the dorms that housed the actives. Speakers included Phil Gillingham, ΘΔ’00, at the #1 sessions, Ben Silliman, Γ’86, and Mike Barina, I’05, with the #4s, and Visitor Nick Gilly, ΔΔ’07, and Northwestern Greek Advisor Dominic Greene with Recruitment Chairs. Friday night’s Trust Dinner and Saturday’s official business sessions were held where most alumni stayed – at the Vanderbilt Marriott. The Convention’s Memorial Service, honoring those Brothers who died over the last year, was held at the Vanderbilt Schulman Center, with John Austell, B’61, officiating at the service. The Chi Psi Educational Trust sponsored a dinner on Friday night, with Ryan Ahlberg, E’03, 2007 Annual Convention Top: #23 Sam Bessey presents the F. Van S.

Van S. Parr Award to Ann Schenck, widow of former Trust Chair Pete Schenck, E’59, for her continued support and involvement in Chi Psi. Brother Emerson extended scholarship and fellowship checks to the many recipients in attendance. Harold G. Arnwine II, ΤΔ’86, ΝΔ’02, did a superb job as #6 (Convention Chair) through the official business sessions on Saturday. A. J. Spring, ΥΔ’09, succeeded retiring Undergrad Rep Drew Eschweiler, I’06. A small number of business items and many positive board and Alpha reports reflected a generally positive year for Chi Psi across the country. At the Final Banquet, former Council Chair Michael Hurst, ΤΔ’87, and former Trustee Hank Bignell, Ρ’77, were honored with Distinguished Service Awards, and Alpha Rho refounder and former #1 Mike Wallace, Ρ’07, was presented the Birge Award as the top undergraduate. UNC’s Alpha Sigma received the Goodbody Award for the strongest scholarship record, Oregon’s Alpha Eta Delta was the recipient of the Founders Trophy for the most improved, and Rutgers’s Rho won the Thayer Trophy for best all-around Alpha, just three years after its refounding at Rutgers. The Banquet ended on a high note with Dr. Dan’s enthusiastic sine die and closing gavel and a hearty Convention rendition of Chi Psis Ever. ■ From top: Oregon’s Eta Delta took the Founders Trophy for most improvement (with Oregon Duck on top), UNC’s Sigma claimed the Goodbody Award for best scholarship and use of educational programs, and Rutger’s Rho won the Thayer Trophy for best overall performance.

He has served as alumni corporation president for Alpha Tau Delta, where he still knows all Brothers by full names and has the authoritative database on all actives and alumni. Whether chairing meetings, overseeing banquets, or socializing with Brothers, he always has a smile on his face, a ready ear to bend, and a hand extended to all. He served Alpha Nu Delta in the same corporation role in its final years, personally joining the distant struggle to keep a viable entity at State College. Our Founders knew that petty jealousies and misunderstandings could assail frail human relationships at any level, but Brother Hurst managed to weave a silver cord of friendship around boards and Brothers to achieve a stronger cherished bond of union and richer era of good feelings than few thought possible. He served on the Executive Council for seven years, chairing the board for five. During that time he oversaw the founding of Alphas Pi Delta and Omega Delta and the beginnings of Rho Delta. He refocused the Council’s energies, streamlining meetings, eliminating debt, and instituting sound fiscal policy. He oversaw the relocation of the Central Office from Olympia Fields to Nashville, even expertly chairing the decorating committee after retiring from the Council. While managing serious matters with all appropriate respect and dignity, Brother Hurst also reminds us that Fraternity is fun. At the end of the day, we engage in those weighty tasks and pursue those ends because we find meaning, fulfillment and enjoyment in what we do. That in forsaking the throng, the retirement we seek is enjoying our Brothers’ company. Michael’s jovial spirit leads us through times of joy, while his strength and loyalty guide us through times of distress. His embodiment of the Chi Psi spirit is manifested by the generous gift of his own personality, offered to all who wear our Badge. We are greatful to his wife and daughter for sharing him with us. ICHAEL H ENRY DENNIS BIGNELL, ALPHA RHO ’77, has been a mentor and leader at Alpha Rho since the day he graduated, serving as Alumni Association President for four years, Trustee of the Alumni Association for over twenty-five years, and now as Treasurer of the Alpha Rho Memorial Foundation for the past two years. When his beloved Alpha closed for five years, he contributed tirelessly to its re-colonization and re-chartering. He has been at the forefront of the process to return Alpha Rho to the Banks of the Old Raritan. He served twice as fund raising chair, first for Rho’s Centennial in 1979 and then again in 1989 when Alpha Rho hosted the 148th Annual Convention. On the national level he served as a Trustee of The Chi Psi Educational Trust in the 1990s, helping to create and perfect the educational programs that the Trust continues to sponsor. He regularly attends Chi Psi Conventions and has made it a priority to involve his entire family in the Chi Psi experience. That effort is paying off, as Brother Bignell participated in the initiation of his eldest son, Hank Jr., at Alpha Pi Delta this past spring. For more than thirty years, Hank Bignell has offered dedicated service to the Fraternity, has exemplified pride in being a Chi Psi, and has delighted in sharing the Chi Psi experience with family and friends. Distinguished Service Award recipients in attendance at the 166th Convention welcome the new honorees: (front) Michael Hurst, ΤΔ’87, and Hank Bignell, Ρ’77; (back row) Cliff Massa, ΕΔ’71; Brian T.

Birge Award, created in 1971, honors Brother Stan Birge, Χ’08, Ι’14, as “an exemplar of an enlightened alumnus, an influence for good in character and scholarship, and a faithful visitor to his own and all Alphas.” This award is for exceptional loyalty and leadership in Fraternity affairs and for strengthening the brotherhood of Fraternity and humankind. Michael Lyn Wallace, Alpha Rho ’07, helped refound Alpha Rho in 2004, and served in several leadership roles, including as #1 in 2006-07. Mike graduated from Rutgers in May and is now working in Honduras teaching English at a 1st–6th grade school before going to graduate school for Neuroscience in the fall of ’08. We caught up with Mike via e-mail and asked him about life and work in that Central American country. He writes: them come from broken families with the mother doing most of the child rearing; the fathers are usually in the U.S. (illegally), dead (from drug trafficking), alcoholics, or with other women. Most of the houses are made of mud and wood, have dirt floors with no bathrooms or running water and indoor wood burning stoves. The average age for a Honduran woman to have her first child is 14, and the average number of kids is 7. Despite all of this, these kids make it to school most days and when they graduate 6th grade, many of them gain scholarships from our school to go onto high school, a great achievement for anyone growing up in these conditions. For most of the kids the school is a place they love to come to. The love and attention they receive here is usually far greater then anything they would at home, and it is a place that allows them to just be kids. After the classes are done for the day at around 5:30, I walk the 20 minutes back home, usually with several kids from the school along a dusty road. I love teaching down here and working with the kids, I love visiting there homes and seeing how they live. Nothing I learned in college or Chi Psi could have prepared me for this type of work, except for one thing. Put others before yourself, I am here because I choose to put these kids before my personal interests, just like I choose to put my Brothers’ interests before my own when I joined Chi Psi. Yours In the Bonds, Mike Wallace, Rho ’07 Imagine a place where children with Downs Syndrome are stoned to death because they are thought to be possessed by demons, where children with AIDS live in the streets and are spit on because they are thought to be “unclean,” a place where 8-year-olds sell there bodies in child prostitution rings. This place is not the mythical Sodom or Gomorrah or some far away country in Africa. This is a place much closer, this place is Honduras. Honduras is the second poorest country in the western hemisphere and it is where I have been teaching since September. A normal day for me starts at about 7 A.M. with the sounds of roosters and traffic. I live with a doctor and his wife whose children have gone off to the university in the capital of Tegucigalpa. We have some coffee and bread for breakfast and then leave to go buy some groceries or lunch for the day. Most of the children in my school work on the streets in the mornings selling tortillas, newspapers, or fruit to the many buses and trucks that pass through the town. Because of this classes do not start until noon, but I have an accelerated English class of about 10 for the 5th and 6th grades for those who are really motivated to learn from 10am11:30am. Once normal classes start at noon I teach classes ranging from computers to Phys. Ed., depending on the day. The children Mike Wallace, Ρ’07, accepting the 2007 Stanley J.

Nashville, Tennessee, 2007 Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 29 New Colony at Union: Returning to Our Roots E fforts for Pi Colony at Union College have yielded results beyond expectation. Two years of preparation and two months of on-the-ground recruitment and developmental work led by Visitor Nick Gilly, ΔΔ’07, have culminated in an excited and ambitious 27-man pledge class. While the men will not go through the Pledge Education process until this winter, they have already elected Colony officer positions, including Billy Tully, who attended Chi Psi’s Spencer Institute and 166th Convention in Nashville this summer, as Colony President. Already the men have been planning several philanthropy events on campus, and are working to continue improving the relationship between Chi Psi and Union College to ensure Chi Psi’s foot-hold on campus and within the Union Greek Community. Additionally, the increasingly organized Alpha Pi alumni have begun planning an on-campus Speaker Series, and the National Fraternity, Pi Alumni, and Union College administration are collaborating to find a Lodge space for the men to occupy next fall. While the Colony is still brand new, if progress continues at the current rate the Pi Colony will blossom into a strong and healthy new Alpha Pi. ■ The first part of Pi Colony’s new pledge class at their formal pledging in late October.

ALPHA ALPHA DELTA UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA William Loyd Florence Jr. ’42 died on 2 Oct 07. Loyd married Ann Florence in 1936, and together they raised four children. His life was marked by a lifelong passion for aviation, which began when Charles Lindbergh flew over Athens while Loyd was in elementary school. Spending every minute he could at the local airport, he earned his pilot’s license at 15, before he got a driver’s license. He graduated in 1939 from the first civilian pilot training program, sponsored by UGA. As a civilian he instructed for war training service and went to Miami’s Pan American Transport Command. A Pioneer Flight Officer for Pan American Airways, in 1945 he flew the first commercial flight from New York to Johannesburg, South Africa (using maps from National Geographic magazines). Transferring to the Navy, he became a Navy Flight Officer developing runs across the North Atlantic from New York to Belfast. He received the North African and the European campaign medals. President of Athens Aviation (operating the Athens Airport in the early ’50s), he flew and managed company aircraft at Fowler Products, where he was Executive VP for product development and built a network of sales personnel. He served as president of the Dr. Pepper Bottling Co. in Athens and developed several subdivisions locally in Athens after World War II. His passion for flying never waned, and he had a current medical certificate from 1937 Fall 2007 The Purple and Gold 31 to 2006, flying thousands of hours, mostly overseas. A week before he died, Loyd was working on the functional, certified flight simulator used for training pilots that he built and maintained. He was a deacon and youth mentor of his church, a director of the Chamber of Commerce, Chair of the Athens–Clarke County consolidation, and president of Athens Torch Club. He was a member of the YWCO Board of Directors, Pan American Clipper Pioneers, OX-5 Aviation Pioneers, Silver Wings, and United Flyers Octogenarians (pilots who did their solo flight after age 80). He is survived by his wife, Ann Florence; three children, eight grandchildren, and a great-grandchild ALPHA GAMMA DELTA STANFORD UNIVERSITY William R. Kimball ’41 died peacefully on 17 June 05.

Thoren ’69 writes, “Frank’s health had been deteriorating, but he was able to stay in his Dowagiac, Wisconsin, home until the last few weeks. I first met Frank in July 1966, when he hosted a rush party at his house in Wilmette. Most of the brotherhood has memories of Frank’s many visits to the Lodge in Champaign during the ’60s and ’70s, his avuncular manner, his love of the arts, his loyal friendships, his sense of humor, and his bohemian lifestyle.” Frank is survived by two neices, a nephew, many great nephews and great nieces, and his Chi Psi brothers and friends. “Peace to his memory.” ALPHA THETA DELTA UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON James M. Cain ’37, Washington Husky football star and successful Seattle insurance broker, died on 26 Aug 07 in Rancho Mirage, CA, ten days shy of his 95th birthday. Excelling academically in high school and lettering in football, basketball, baseball, and track, he was named “Outstanding Oklahoma HS Athlete” of 1932 and was recruited by Washington Coach Jimmy Phelan with a full athletic scholarship. Arriving in Seattle with $15 in his pocket, Jimmie went on to be a star player for the Huskies gridiron, starting on both offense and defense. He was 1935 team Captain and led in scoring and selected in 1935 and 1936 as First Team All-American, with All-Coast recognition. He was named Most Valuable Coast Player in 1936, and he received many other honors in 1936. He played in the 1937 Rose Bowl against Pittsburgh and on the College All-Star team that was the first to defeat a pro team, the Green Bay Packers. He was drafted by the Redskins, played for a short time, and earned a BA in economics and business in 1937. In 1939, Jimmie married his college sweet- heart, Grace Weir Dolan. After college, Jimmie was 1937 Husky Freshman assistant football coach, and coach and player for the City Municipal Athletic League while working for General Insurance. He later served as president of the Washington Athletic Club and the UW Alumni Association and was active in numerous Seattle civic clubs and social organizations. He was Past Master of his Masonic Lodge, member of the Scottish Rite, Potentate of Nile Temple 1958, and member of the Royal Order of Jesters. He was a Rotarian, Kiwanis president, and March of Dimes Chair. He was a member of Lions, Navy League, Community Chest, United Good Neighbors, President of Pacific NW AAU Association, Safeco President’s Council, and a Life Member of the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce. At UW, Jimmie was honored as a “Husky Legend” and inducted into the State Sports Hall of Fame. He was recognized by the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame with the Tony Gasparovich Coach Award for his continuous support of young athletes. And he was a chapter in Greg Brown’s new book, What It Means to be a Husky – Don James and Washington’s Greatest Players. He refereed 25 years in the PAC 10 football conference, 14 East-West Shrine Bowls, one while being Potentate of Nile Temple. He was the only football player to both play in the Rose Bowl and later referee it. He belonged to US Coast Guard Auxiliary, US Army Reserve, Navy League and was an active War Chest Fundraiser. Jimmie established his successful Cain Insurance Agency in 1941. He was a member of Sand Point Country Club, Broadmore Country Club, Seattle Yacht Club, Washington Athletic Club and the Seattle Tennis Club, where he played tennis well into his 80s. Jimmie is survived by his two daughters and two grandchildren. Investing Through Philanthropy Bill Kimball Speaks On the Joys of Giving (adapted from a 1998 newsletter) S ixty years ago, when a bottle of Coca Cola sold for a nickel and college tuition was a fraction of its current cost, Stanford junior William R. Kimball, an economics major, found an original means to pay his way through school – selling Coca-Cola. “At the time, you could only buy Coke at a couple of places on campus. I bought the franchise from a company in San Jose and began selling Coke in the Lodge and other fraternity and sorority houses, and also installed vending machines at various locations around campus.” Bill bought the drinks for 3.7 cents, sold them for a nickel to the Greeks, who in turn sold them for 7 cents to their members. “Back then, it was on the honor system – if you wanted a Coke you just signed your name on a sheet of paper and left the money. I’m not sure that would work today,” he adds wryly. “One morning,” he recalls, “my fraternity Brothers were all looking at me funny, glancing over to a copy of the Stanford Daily, where the headline read ‘Machine Gives Out Free Cokes.’ Apparently, one of my machines had gone crazy. I ran over to the boat house and saw that 60 bottles were gone. Later, I discovered that most of them were in closets in the Lodge – It was a prank and the Brothers gave them back.” That spirit and comradery is what stood out most in his memory of his college days. “Stanford was a smaller place,” he says. “We had bonfires before the Big Game and fireworks to celebrate every victory.” Most of all, he thought of Stanford and Chi Psi as places that produced leaders. That is what he strove to be – both in the business world and as a philanthropist. After college, he joined the Army and later went to Harvard Business School. But despite an impressive resume, he said, potential employers were always more interested in the business he started as an undergraduate in the Stanford Lodge. In Memoriam Arthur McArthur, Eta Delta ’48 rthur McArthur Eta Delta ’48, a wonderful, ebullient Chi Psi character of the first class, died on 14 March 2007. He always seemed to have a million stories to share if you got him going, although he could just as easily break into a song at the least provocation. His family (and a few Fraternity Brothers) cringed whenever they heard, “That reminds me of a song….” Some said he had a questionable voice and ability to stay on key, but whatever his deficiencies might have been were made up for in loudness and enthusiasm. One family member said that he couldn’t help singing any more than the birds could; it was just part of his nature. Alumni President David Waterfall ’84 recalled, “Arthur was the Birthday Banquet choregus for as long as I can remember. He was always the first to start a rousing chorus of songs long since forgotten by us youngsters graduating in the ’80s, ’90s and ’00s. But all sang along as best they could.” It appeared that there were few Oregon Chi Psis unknown to Arthur, and he could usually tell you where someone was from, who he was related to, and other trivia you should know about him. In 1920, Arthur’s father, Lewis A. McArthur, Delta Delta ’08, was commissioned by Chi Psi to examine the S. Maralda Society and the University of Oregon for “its suitability as a field for Chi Psi extention.” The report was favorable, and eventually Arthur (born in 1923) joined Eta Delta. At the time of his initiation in 1943, other Chi Psi relatives included his brother Lewis L. McArthur, ΔΔ’38, three nephews, and a cousin. One of Arthur’s earliest memories was of traipsing around the state with his father as the elder McArthur set benchmarks, surveyed, and researched his indispensable Oregon Geographic Names. The first edition of the book was published in 1928, and Arthur’s brother, Lewis, edited the new edition with a CD. Arthur grew up on the family farmstead in the Greenhills section of Portland. His father was a VP of Pacific Power and Light, and his mother was instrumental in seeing St. Thomas More Church built. Arthur related having a happy childhood as the youngest of four, widely-spaced children. He was a Boy Scout, and scouting followed him throughout his life. As a youngster, he traveled with his father to Washington, D.C., and met Vice President John Nance Garner. For the rest of his life, he loved to exclaim when meeting someone, “Shake the hand that shook the hand of John Nance Garner.” A couple of generations later, it drew some Thanks to Joan Harvey and The Sunday Oregonian for parts of this story. A In Memoriam Arthur McArthur eventually married his high-school sweetheart, Dorothy, but that was after World War II, when he flew B-24 bombers over the Pacific. quizzical looks. Arthur was somewhat of a legend at Lincoln High School. When his grandchildren were at Lincoln, the students were still telling stories of Arthur as the first and only class bartender ever elected in student-body elections. It was an office the principal quickly abolished, of course. He ran with a crowd that took up skiing because the Blue Ox Bar at Timberline (ski area on Mt. Hood) was open to teenagers. It was a more innocent time; some of the group’s pranks wouldn’t work so well today. For several summers, he sold Fourth of July fireworks, and one of his two stands, located where the St. Thomas More driveway is now, exploded. The resulting display, visible throughout the city, made the front page of the Oregonian newspaper. World War II interrupted his education at the University of Oregon. He copiloted a B-24 in the Pacific theater and managed to get lost over the ocean for a horrifying hour on a bombing mission. He was matter-of-fact about the war experience, didn’t like it, but wasn’t traumatized by it, and looked upon it as an unpleasant task that had to be done. He came back with a repertoire of new songs, most of them scatalogical or worse. One of the first things he did when he came home was to marry his high-school sweetheart, Dotti, whom he dubbed “The Queen.” They set up housekeeping in the cold-water married student trailers, but for a while became house parents at the Chi Psi Lodge, in the area adjoining the downstairs ladies’ room. It was perhaps the only time that a female lived in the Lodge during the academic year. When Arthur and Dotti returned to Portland, Arthur started an insurance business, and eventually found himself director of public relations at Jantzen. It was a job that fit him like the one-piece suit that fit the famous Jantzen girl in the ads. Arthur was always a connector. One of the thrills of his life was hunting down people, and frequent family trips were always good excuses for tracing people. He kept his own 3 x 5-inch card files on which he wrote notes of his Chi Psi connections. And he was the official obiter (made-up word) for Brothers that passed away during his years. He served on a variety of civic boards, was president of his condominium board, and volunteered at the Oregon Historical Society. He knew Portland history intimately, and he was a frequent source of information for journalists and scholars. A woodworker, he had an elaborate shop in the basement of his home. He also worked with rawhide and took as his personal responsibility the repair and maintenance of the historic rawhide chairs at Timberline Lodge. Classmate Bill Bessey ’49 recalled that “he seemed to embody a passion for the Brothers with enthusiasm that was just as strong as anything else. Arthur was a heck of a historian, a bit of a songbird, and an unrelenting promoter of Chi Psi.” In recent years, Arthur was instrumental in Eta Delta’s Capital Campaign. He actively and enthusiastically called upon fellow alumni to recall their cherished memories of the Lodge, and to consider giving back to her. Arthur was a collector. For example, at one time he had more than 300 wooden hangers from hotels, all of them beutifully polished. The more remote the hotel or the longer it had been out of business, the better. Th hanging up a guest’s coat always elicited a short monologue on the hotel. But his real expertise with collecting was with people. He made friends everywhere he went and kept them throughout his life. He knew the personal histories and details of the lives of hundreds of Chi Psis, not just those from his own college days, but right up to the present. We will all miss him greatly.

This is the 100th Anniversary of the completion of the “new” Lodge at Cornell after the deadly loss of 1906, and alumni are completing a major renovation this year. The Lodge will host a reception on Friday night, and Saturday’s Banquet will be held in style at the Cornell Statler Hotel’s Grand Ballroom (run by that premier hospitality management school). Don’t miss Chi Psi’s first northeastern Convention in a decade. There’s so much to do in Ithaca and the surrounding area in the summer: Concerts to satisfy every taste, plays and musical theater, museums and galleries galore. The Sciencenter provides hands-on experiences for young and old, and the Cayauga Nature Center offers five miles of nature trails, exhibits and programs. For dinosaur lovers, the Paleontological Research Institution has two million fossiles! And the Johnson Museum at Cornell (at right – a gift from Herbert F. Johnson Jr., Psi ’22), just up the hill from the Lodge, has an excellent collection of Asian art, plus many other permanent and traveling exhiblits. And the summer in Ithaca is filled with all kinds of celebrations with performance, food, and fun. Contact Chad Larson at the Central Office for more details.
