game plan I
t is no secret that I am a big football fan .
The crisp air of autumn afternoons carry
the twinge that tells me it is football
season. For me, to see a live game is
thrilling- the smells, pageantry and
traditions - create an atmosphere that
is hard to match.
The spirit of competition and
teamwork that football teams repre
sent remind me a lot of the frater
nity experience - many brothers
working together as one unit to
reach a goal. Just as football is a
tradition on college campuses
all across the country, so are fraternities . As
we take a look back over this past year in the
State of the Fraternity section of this Star &
Lamp, we
can see how Pi Kappa Phi is taking the
necessary steps to ensure we remain a ftxture
on campus and a positive part of the
college experience.
Now over a year old, the award-winning
Journey Project is turning heads not only in
the Greek world, but also in administrative
buildings on campuses all over the country.
Students, parents and university officials can
see clearly that Pi Kappa Phi is a cut above
the rest. The Journey demonstrates our
commitment to building a better fraternity
through building better men.
In an excellent example of team work,
Iota Chapter demonstrates what happens
when alumni and students huddle up, draw up a game plan, and execute. In a preview of
their new chapter house, we see the lofty
heights we can be reached as a team.
This issue also celebrates those who were
honored for their accomplishments and
dedication to Pi Kappa Phi at the 45th
Supreme Chapter in San Francisco, which
showcased the Fraternities best and
brightest alumni and undergraduates.
In addition, the 45th
Supreme Chapter also wel
comed Pi Kappa Phi's new
National Council -the
men who will continue
to orchestrate our game
plan for the future. I would personally like to
thank Jerry Brewer, David Lane, Allen Woody,
and Stuart Hicks for all their hard work
during their time on the National Council, as
well as Regina Moody and Ernest Johnson for
their service as president of PUSH America
and Pi Kappa Phi Properties, respectively.
Pi Kappa Phi would not be where we are now
without their wisdom and leadership.
Finally, in the first of a series of three
sports features (see back cover), we celebrate
our brothers who brought credit to them
selves and their fraternity through their
achievement in the sport that makes autumn
a magical time.
As always, enjoy this issue of the Star &
Lamp of Pi Kappa Phi.
Fraternally,

CREEK SPORTS HISTORIAN
leading Presbyterian College football to a 4-3 record in 1913.
Three chapter brothers from Alabama (Omicron) starred on
a formidable Crimson Tide squad in the late 1910s. Joe Sewell, a future baseball Hall of FaJner, played quarterback along with
halfback Walt Hovater and guard Ralph Jones. Hovater later served as head coach at Georgetown (KY) from 1924 through 1928.
Nebraska's (Nu) Carl Peterson earned All-American third team honors at guard in 1921 and at center in 1922 before
pro with the 1924 Kansas City Cowboys of the early NFL.
Illinois (Upsilon) brother Frank Wickhorst was a two-way
tackle who transferred to Navy and wound up being team captain. In 1926, he was a consensus All-American and helped the Navy
squad finish the season undefeated. W.ckhc>rst was also a long
time assistant coach at Iowa and catifQ$ta and eventually went on to serve as the Golden Beata head c:oadt:in 1946. In 1970, he
was elected to the National Football FQundation Hall of Fame.
Another Pi Kapp who waaeasemialto his team's success was
halfback Robert Lee Hamner of.t\labanut Hanmer was instrumental in helping the Crimson Tide roll to a national championship in the 1926 Rose Bowl.
Georgia (Lambda) produced two All-Americans in 1927 on the way to a 9-1 record. Ivy "Chick" Shiver was team captain, a two-way end and punter who eventually bypassed pro football for major league baseball. He was elected to the State of Georgia

Sports Hall of Fame in 1966. AllSouthern guard Gene Smith was
named to AP's All-American team and later played in the NFL with
Frankford and Portsmouth during the 1930 season.
Another Georgia player, tackle Vernon "Fats" Bryant, provided an
exciting moment in the 1929 game against Georgia Tech. Late in the fourth quarter with the game tied 6-6, Bryant blocked a punt, picked up the
ball and ran 50 yards on a muddy field to give the Bulldogs a 12-6 win.
Clair Sloan of Nebraska was a multi-talented star of the late 1920s, excelling as quarterback,
running back, punter and kicker. He was named AllBig Six in 1927 and '28, earned All-American mention both seasons and played in the East-West Shrine Game. He was later elected to the State of Nebraska Sports Hall of Fame in 1984. Teammate and chapter
brother Merle Zuver was a 3 year standout at center before playing with the Green Bay Packers in 1930.
Oklahoma tackle Granville Norris captained the 1927 squad, was named All-Big Six and All-American.
The Fraternity's first big star of the 1930s was
Georgia captain/end Herb Maffett, who was named All-Southern and All-American in 1930. He was later elected to the State of Georgia Sports Hall of Fame in
1981. During the same period of time, Erk Taylor
played guard and tackle for the Auburn (Alpha Iota) squad. He then went on to play professionally with the NFL Staten Island Stapeltons.
Psi Chapter at Cornell produced the multitalented John Ferraro. Ferrard rarely left the field during a game, playing running back, punter, kicker and defensive back. He was Cornell's team captain in 1933. After graduation, he bypassed the NFL to join the CFL's Hamilton Tigers in 1934 as a player-coach.
He then went on to Montreal and starred from 1936 to 1940. Ferraro won All-Canadian honors every year
he played. He is also an inductee of the Cornell Athletic Hall of Fame. In 1966, he was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame.
Fullback/Linebacker Paul Sulkosky was a three year star for Washington (Alpha Delta), earning AllAmerican mention, playing in the East-West Shrine Game and being named Most Inspirational Player in 1934. He was named to the all-time Washington team, selected in 1950.
1939 was a banner year for Pi Kappa Phi as quarterback Earl Crowder became the first Pi Kapp to be selected in the NFL draft. Crowder was Oklahoma's (Alpha Gamma) co-captain and All-Big Six in 1938 before playing with the Chicago Cardinals (1939) and Cleveland Rams (1940) .
Also in 1939, Wally Butts (Alpha AlphaMercer) began what would turn out to be an extremely successful 22 year career as head coach of the
Georgia Bulldogs. Over the course of this career, his teams would win 4 SEC titles and make 8 bowl game appearances. Counting bowl games, his career record
was 140-86-9 . Butts was inducted into the State of Georgia Sports Hall of Fame in 1966.
Some of the Fraternity's best players in the early 1940s came as the result of Wally Butts' recruitment and leadership. Quarterback Cliff Kimsey and tackle Greene Keltner were key players for Georgia's
1941 8-1-1 Orange Bowl champs. Kimsey, who had a
60-yard TO reception in the Orange Bowl, was an All-SEC third team selection and was drafted by the Chicago Cardinals. Center Frank Plant only lettered
one year for Georgia (1945) but was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams.
Three Pi Kapps at Alabama emerged as top
players of the decade. Quarterback
Hal Self scored 2 touchdowns in the Tide's 34-14 win over USC in the 1946 Rose Bowl. Self was later drafted by the NFL Brooklyn Dodgers. Guard Jack Green was on the All-SEC team in 1945 and was drafted by the Chicago Bears. Rounding out the Pi Kapp
tackle Dick Flowers, a three year starter and San
Francisco 49er pick.
Jim Still played quarterback, defensive back
and punter for Georgia Tech (Iota) before spending
the 1948-49 seasons with the
AAFC's Buffalo Bills. Tackle Ken
Dubard was Wofford (Zeta) co
captain and Little All-American first
teamer in 194 7. Hal Saunders was a
three year starter at center for North
Carolina State (Tau) in the late 1940s
while halfback Ron Bergmeier was
Tennessee's (Alpha Sigma) fastest
player in 1947, '48 and '49. Fullback
Jim McGowen, initiated at Alabama,
transferred to Auburn and lettered
three years. He captained the 1950
Tigers squad and was their top rusher.
The 1950s proved to be a very productive
decade for Pi Kappa Phi players. Purdue (Omega) end
Darrel "Pete" Brewster was 1951 team MVP and
played in the 1952 College All -Star Game before a
nine year pro career with the Cleveland Browns
(1952-58) and Pittsburgh Steelers (1959-60). Against
the Giants on December 6, 1953, he had one of the
top games in Browns history, catching 7 passes for
182 yards and 3 touchdowns. The
following year, he caught 42 passes for
676 yards and 4 touchdowns. He then
led Cleveland in receptions from
1955-57. Named to the Pro Bowl
twice, Darrel had 210 career catches
for 3, 758 yards and 21 touchdowns.
He later was an NFL assistant coach
with the Vikings (1961-63) and
Chiefs (1964-73) .
Defensive tackle Ed
Husmann was tri-captain of the
1952 Nebraska Cornhuskers squad. Husmann
moved on to a 12 year professional career with the
Chicago Cardinals (1953, 1956-59), Dallas Cowboys (1960) , Houston Oilers (1961 -65 ) and Edmonton Eskimos (1966). He was named Ali-AFL in 1962 and played in three AFL All-Star games.
Charlie LaPradd, tri-captain and defensive
tackle for Florida, earned All-SEC honors in 1950, '51
and '52, and All-American honors in 1952. He was
also the defensive hero of the 1953 Gator Bowl.
LaPradd was drafted by the Green Bay Packers
after graduation, but his career was cut short by
injuries from an auto accident.
Davidson's Jim Thacker twice scored
4 touchdowns in a game (Richmond, 1952
and West Virginia Tech, 19 54) and was a top
runner for three years. Tampa (Beta
Lambda) Pi Kapp Dick Harte burst onto the
national scene as an All-American end in
1956. Additionally, chapter brothers Bill
Post and Billy Turner were captains of the
Tampa football squad.
Offensive tackle Gene Selawski of
••• Purdue was named All-American, All-Big
Ten and Academic All-Big Ten in 1958. He also
played in the College All-Star Game, Senior Bowl and
Blue-Gray Game before 3 pro seasons with the Rams,
Browns and Chargers.
Florida State's (Beta Eta) Al Ulmer was a 3 year
starter at guard despite weighing only 176 pounds. A
1959 captain, he gained All-American
mention as a junior and senior, was state
Lineman of the Year in 1959 and was the
school's first recipient of the Bob
Crenshaw Award for "The Player with
the Biggest Heart."
East Texas State (Beta Chi)
quarterback Sam McCord earned
Little All-American first team
selection in 1958-59 after gaining
NAJA honorable mention in 1957.
He was also team MVP/co-captain in 1959 and All-Lone Star Conference for three
seasons. An outstanding runner, passer and punter,
Sam rushed for 2,019 career yards (including 887
yards in 1959) and threw for 1,659 career yards. Bob Powell was a stellar guard for Northwestern (La.)
State (Beta Omicron) from 1957 through 1960.
Tackle Ken Rice of Auburn was the SEC's best offensive lineman and an All-American pick in 1959. As as senior in 1960, he was a consensus All-American, SEC best defensive lineman, team co-captain and
a College All-Star Game selection. Chosen in the first

made the executive decision to move up the
after-dinner program - model Initiation - and
push back dinner.
It worked.
By 7 p.m. dinner for 600 was prepared, the
banquet room's chandeliers were lit by generators,
and the evening proceeded without a hitch.
Power returned in time for Mr. Pi Kappa Phi,
two Students of the Year, and other award
recipients to be named.
The Supreme Banquet was a good kickoff to
four days that included shortened legislative
sessions, allowing delegates to spend more time
sight-seeing with their spouses, children and
other Pi Kapps.
Sunday night, the entire convention boarded
the California Hornblower for a night harbor
cruise in the San Francisco Bay. Just after
sunset, the cruise ship reached the Golden
Gate Bridge. Later we passed close to
Alcatraz, which at night looked more like a
movie dip from "The Rock" than a postcard
scene.
Spouses and children of alumni enjoyed a
special program that included trips to Union
Square, Fisherman's Wharf, Golden Gate Park and
Filoli Gardens. On Monday's trip to Napa Valley,
Domaine Chandon provided the group with a tour
of the winery and lunch at the estate. At Cakebread
Cellars, Pi Kapp Dennis Cakebread, son of owners
Jack and Dolores Cakebread, treated his guests to a
special behind-the-scenes tour and wine tasting.
Other convention highlights included the
naming of three new members to the Pi Kappa Phi
Hall of Fame, electing a new National Council,
and watching the Oakland t\s take on the
Minnesota Twins.
The 45th Supreme Chapter marked the second
time San Francisco has hosted the National
Fraternity's biennial convention. Despite the 20

AREA GovERNOR oF THE YEAR
Ralph Foster The job of an area governor would seem insurmountable to many Pi Kapps. Developing goals, and the plans to obtain those goals, for 13 undergraduate chapters of Pi Kappa Phi spread out over 3 states takes a special kind of care and motivation.
An area governor must be ready at a moment's
notice to serve his fraternity. Ralph Foster, an alumnus
initiate of Auburn (Alpha Iota), has
surpassed all those expectations during
his three years as Area VIII Governor.
In addition to his duties as the
Director of the Office of Outreach
Information at Auburn University,
Foster also serves as chapter advisor for
the Alpha Iota Chapter at Auburn, and
serves on the Alpha Iota Housing
Corporation Board. He is also the
president of the International Board of Directors for the
Society for Advancement of Management. In 1993, he
received the International Human Relations Award
from the Society for the Advancement of Management.
Foster has also published numerous books, papers,
and periodicals. Somehow, amidst all this activity, he
finds time to visit the chapters in his area personally,
always encouraging them to use him as a resource. He
also found time to set up one of the first Career Con
claves for the chapters in his area, further increasing
communication between the chapters and alumni. Quite humbly, Foster said he was "surprised" to
receive the award.
"There are so many others that have done more
over a longer period of time. It means a lot to me that
the Fraternity chose to recognize me and I am very
proud of the honor," he said. "The award, I feel, is a
credit to the chapters in Area VIII. They all work extremely hard to excel in every aspect of the Frater
nity." *
FALL 1996 19
CHAPTER ADVISOR OF THE YEAR
''Buzz'' Holdorf To his list of personal awards - the Bronze Star, the Navy Commendation Medal, and the Navy Achievement Medal - Lieutenant Colonel William E. "Buzz" Holdorf (Florida State-Beta Eta) will now add 1996 Pi Kappa Phi Chapter Advisor of the Year.
As chapter advisor for Zeta Beta at UC San Diego,
Holdorf has been essential to the
continual growth of the group during the
past two years. Although serving as
chapter advisor for only a short time, he
has made a difference for Pi Kappa Phi
on the chapter and alumni level, almost
singlehandedly starting the San Diego
alumni association of which he has
served as president.
The honor of Chapter Advisor of the Year is not
new to Holdorf. He was recognized with the same
honor by UC San Diego.
Holdorfs lifetime commitment to Pi Kappa Phi
began in 1974 when he rushed Beta Eta at Florida State.
Initiated in 1975 then graduating from Florida State in
1978 with a Bachelors Degree in Business Management,
he was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the
United States Marine Corps.
He has obtained the military designations of naval
aviator, logistics officer, and Inspector-Instructor. His
training in amphibious warfare placed him in Opera
tion Desert Storm with the amphibious landing force.
"I'm thankful for the opportunity I had to work
with the men of·Zeta Beta, and grateful for the many
friendships I developed among the alumni of San
Diego," Holdorf said. "My selection as Pi Kappa Phi's
Chapter Advisor of the Year is a reflection of the
determination and cooperation of the chapter and
alumni."
Holdorf is now leaving the San Diego area to fulfill
his position as a Logistics Staff Officer, Policy and
Requirements Division, Supreme Headquarters Allied
Powers Europe in Mons, Belgium. *

Dear Dedicated Pi Kappa Phi Alumnus,
Recently, I received an e-mail inquiry from a young alumnus who wanted "some information on different
areas in which the Foundation accepts donations." As you might imagine, I very quickly responded to this
question. In order for the Foundation to be successful. it is important that all Pi Kapps know the answer to this
question, so I will take this opportunity to give you a brief description of the areas where alumni financial support
is most needed.
The most pressing needs are for unrestricted contributions and gifts to support implementation ofThe
Journey. Unrestricted contributions include those received through the Annual Appeal and
other gifts given without specific instructions for their use. Unrestricted funds support
operation of the Foundation, alumni programming. educational programming. Pi Kapp
College. Pi Kapp Scholars, and other programs.
Implementation of The Journey is proceeding ahead of schedule. A major priority for
the Foundation is to provide adequate funding for The Journey, allowing implementation of
the program without causing a dangerous escalation of student dues and fees. Basically,
funding of The Journey will be accomplished two ways. For established chapters with alumni,
we will seek to establish Chapter Journey Funds, which will support The Journey in a specific
chapter. For newer chapters who do not have access to alumni support, we have established a
general Journey fund, which will provide initial support for their Journey programs.
In addition to Chapter Journey Funds, many alumni want to make tax deductible contributions which
will benefit their chapter. For that purpose. we have established the Chapter Investment Funds (CIF). These are
endowment funds established for each chapter, funded by donations from the chapter, alumni and friends. When
the balance in the CIF reaches $5,000, a percentage of the fund balance is available for distribution for qualified
purposes to the chapter. Qualified purposes include scholarship grants and loans, chapter educational programs,
and grants for other educational purposes.
With the formation of the new development department. the Foundation also solicits and receives
contributions on behalf of PUSH America, Pi Kappa Phi's own national philanthropy. PUSH America has long
been a philanthropy priority for our undergraduate chapters, and is now a priority for alumni support as well.
Donors to PUSH America will be recognized in the Foundation's Annual Report each year.
Contributions for any of the areas described here, and for other areas not mentioned, may be made with
gifts of cash or appreciated securities, or by credit card. For these gifts and for large gifts which require sophisticated
gift planning. including wills and bequests, charitable trusts, etc., call me at (704) 523-6000, ext. 119 for more
information. Your membership in Pi Kappa Phi is a lifelong commitment. These are some of the many ways in
which you can demonstrate your commitment.
Yours in Pi Kappa Phi,

time to meet with the people for

38 organizations that serve people

Alumni Involvement
Throughout the Journey of •
Hope's nine year history, an ever
growing group of alumni have
helped to make the visits to their
communities a success! Whether
they have donated time, money, or
simply came out to support the
team, they helped inspire the
Journey of Hope team as they
traveled across the country.

children with disabilities. He was
very moved by the team's interac
tion with the children and the
happiness the team brought to the
clients. "It was an eye opening
experience," he said.
In 1992, the Kirks and the Des
Moines Alumni Association
adopted the team's visit as an
annual function . For the past five
years, the Kirks have hosted the
team in their home and organized
a fund-raising dinner in the team's
honor.
They have sent invitations to
clients, co-workers, friends, and
neighbors. Each person attending
was asked to make a donation to a
local charity that supports people
with disabilities. The Kirks then
forwarded the checks to the
charities along with literature
about PUSH America. The event
raises approximately $2,000 each
year and also let people know
about PUSH America.
John credits the success of the
event to his wife Peggy. "She's the
one who actually does the work.
She's been doing this since before
we were married. She used to help
me stuff mailings when I was
chapter historian."
When asked how the team's
visit affects their community, Mr.
Kirk replied, "The funds have really
helped local efforts. Everyone
enjoys meeting the cyclists and
they always put on a Kids on the
Block show for the children who
attend. We've enjoyed having them
in our house, they're an outstand
ing group of young men. "
PUSH America thanks all the
alumni who work so hard to make
this project a success. Many
opportunities exist for other
alumni who would like to get
involved. If you are involved with
any civic clubs, professional
associations, or church groups the
team could become involved with,
or would like more information

community, please contact Chris

Pi Kapp shot in line of duty
Ronald Magno, a founding father at SUNY
Brockport (Eta Lambda) and Ft. Lauder
dale police officer, was shot in the leg on
July 28, 1996 during a shootout with a
suspected armed robber.
Magno was one of
three police officers that
stopped a car that matched
a description of the robbery
vehicle. When the vehicle
stopped, a man got out of
the car and began to fire at
the police with a semi
automatic pistol. Magno was hit in the left
thigh but remained standing and continued to
return fire. The suspect later died of multiple
gunshot wounds.
"I remember feeling angry that I got hit, "
said Magno . ''I'm not going to lie to you, I was
really scared. But, I think the anger helped
control the fear."
A 1993 graduate of SUNY-Brockport,
Magno received his degree in criminal justice
and later when to the graduate from the Ft.
Lauderdale Police Academy. Magno finds
many similarities between law enforcement
and the fraternity experience that meant so
much to him.
"Law enforcement is a brotherhood, " he
said. "I love the camaraderie and the team
work. The fraternity was the same for me. The
chapter was always there."
He has since returned back to full duty in
Ft. Lauderdale. *
from the University
of Mississippi. He
worked as a research
chemist, then
dedicated his career
to education, teach
ing chemistry, and
serving as an admin
istrator at public
schools and universi
ties. He also served as
an advisor to the U.S.
Embassy's Agency for
International Devel
opment in Central
America and as a
member of the White
House Committee on

He was initiated
into Beta Chi Chap

His realization that

"It was the best of times ... it was the worst of times." --Charles Dickens
n retrospect, the 1995-96 school year was
one of the most exciting, while at the
same time challenging years for the
Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity. It started with the
debut of the Journey project and expan
sion efforts to new campuses unparalleled
since the 1920s. At the same time, several risk
management incidents led to the closure of
several chapters. The following is a summary
of some of the major accomplishments or
events which took place this past year.
Journey Project
Billed by Mark Hollis (Stetson - Chi),
former CEO of Publix Supermarkets, as the
"renaissance of the fraternal movement," the
Journey Project was formally announced at Pi
Kapp College 1995. It offers broad Level One
support for all chapters, and in addition,
created the Journey Chapter for those chapters
seeking enhanced benefits and willing to
subscribe to increased standards. We are
pleased that 34 chapters have accepted the
challenge by voting to become Journey
Chapters.
percent, the actual number of
initiates increased 6 percent as
compared to the same time
period for the previous
year. As a result, our average
pre-initiation class ranked
fourth nationally and our
average initiation class ranked third nationally.
Our average chapter size ranks lOth nationally.
Recruitment and retention maintain a top
priority.
Expansion & Closures Pi Kappa Phi continues to receive numer-
ous invitations from quality institutions
around the United States to expand to their
campuses. This past year witnessed the
recolonization of the University of Arizona
(Beta Theta), the University of Mississippi
(Alpha Lambda) and Stetson University (Chi) .
In addition, the University of Maryland,
Baltimore County, was recertified as an
associate chapter after a brief hiatus. Six
chapters were chartered, including Morehead
State (Delta Eta), Coastal Carolina (Zeta Pi),
Colorado State (Zeta Phi), Southwest Texas
Recruitment Success State (Eta Rho), University of Memphis
Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity continues to (Gamma Delta) and UCLA (Eta Sigma) .
weather the storm of declining fraternity Our expansion schedule remains full with
membership for all fraternities . While this past the planned reopening of Delta Rho at the year the number of pre-initiates declined 4 Continued page 38

University of Southern California, as well as
our first entry into New Mexico at New Mexico
State University this coming fall.
On a less positive note, it was necessary to
close six of our chapters for failing to meet Pi
Kappa Phi standards. The chapters that were
closed were: Texas Tech, Nebraska, Winthrop,
South Carolina, Radford and University of
California-Davis.
Increased Chapter Services
In conjunction with the debut of the
Journey Project, increased chapter services
were provided as part of the Level One pro
gramming, including the increase. in the
number of Leadership Conferences from 2 to
4. This allows more students and alumni
advisors to participate at geographically
convenient locations. The Leadership Consult
ant Visitation Program was adjusted, adding
the concept of "focus topics, " allowing chap
ters to select from a menu of topics in order to
tailor consultant visits to their specific needs.
The Fraternity's comprehensive system of
educational and chapter management manuals
were edited and supplemented. In addition,
free recruitment materials were provided to
each chapter to provide support in this very
vital area. Finally, a director of chapter services
was employed to further improve the services
provided to our chapters and advisors.
Risk Management Without a doubt, violations of the
Fraternity's Risk Management Policy were the most troublesome issues during the last school
year. Several closures mentioned were due to
risk management violations. More impor
tantly, one of our brothers died at the Univer
sity of Virginia in an alcohol-related incident
and a young co-ed died of alcohol intoxication
at Radford University after attending an
alleged Pi Kappa Phi event and subsequently
another fraternity's event.
Pi Kappa Phi was not the only fraternity
affected as fraternities reported five deaths over
the cou~se of the school year nationwide.
Membership in the Fraternity means personal
responsibility and unfortunately some of our
members and chapters have forgotten their
obligations. Pi Kappa Phi will continue to
diligently work with our members to ensure
that Pi Kappa Phi is truly a Fraternity and not
a social club. As a Fraternity, we have standards
and will continue to enforce them.
Improved Administrative Operations
This past year many of the internal
operating systems were "re-engineered"
including the _creation of a Communications
Department and the implementation of an
affiliate wide Accounting Department. The
combined financial operations of the Greater
Fraternity approach $4 million per year. At the
same time, the Communications Department
has enhanced the overall image of our publica
tions with many accolades and awards re
ceived to date.
Housing The Fraternity continues to provide
competitive housing to many of its chapters
through the efforts of both local housing
corporations and Pi Kappa Phi Properties. We
were pleased to welcome two "signature"
chapter houses at Georgia Tech (Iota) and
Indiana University (Alpha Psi), as well as the
purchase of chapter houses at West Virginia (Alpha Rho) and Oklahoma State (Gamma
Upsilon) by Pi Kappa Phi Properties. The
successful work of Pi Kappa Phi Properties was
led by Tracy Maddux, Executive Vice President (Texas, Zeta Theta) who left the Fraternity staff
after four years of service to return to graduate
school at Indiana University. We welcome
Evan Erickson (Washington-Alpha Delta), a
former Leadership Consultant as Executive
Vice President of Pi Kappa Phi Properties.
National Officials
Pi Kappa Phi is blessed to have many
dedicated and qualified volunteers who serve
on the various Boards of Directors. We
gratefully acknowledge the support of several
Officials who left our ranks at the end of this
school year. They include National President,
Jerry Brewer (South Carolina-Sigma), National
Chancellor, David Lane (Purdue-Omega),
National Historian, Allen Woody (Roanoke
Xi) and National Chaplain, Stuart Hicks
(North Carolina-Kappa). PUSH America Board
President Regina Moody, Past President James
Stump (Roanoke-Xi), as well as Board Mem
bers Kevin Murphy (Penn State-Alpha Mu) and
Bob Welsh (Texas Tech- Epsilon Omega) also
leave with our special thanks. In addition, we
thank Lonnie Strickland (Alabama-Omicron)
for serving as Chairman of the Pi Kappa Phi
Foundation and J. Ernest Johnson (Auburn
Alpha Iota) for serving as President of Pi
Kappa Phi Properties, as well as Ben Guion's
service as Treasurer for Pi Kappa Phi Properties
and Bruce Rogers' service as a Pi Kappa Phi
Foundation Trustee. Lastly we recognize Art
Quickenton (Appalachian State-Delta Zeta)
and Ron De Valinger (La Grange-Gamma Nu)
for their service as Area Governors.
National Trends
Unfortunately, the national attitude
toward fraternities continues to remain
negative as both the national press and college
administrators assail us for incidents involving
a small percentage of fraternity members. This
anti-fraternity posture has Jed to a decrease in the amount of college freshmen interested in
joining fratern ities. A recent survey of high
school seniors indicate that only 12% have an
interest in joining a fraternity. This lack of
interest and negative perception about frater
nities is further compounded by the panacea
of second semester deferred rush as a solution
for the ills of the fraternity system. Further
more, many fraternities and colleges are
reviewing substance free living environments
(see page 42) as a solution to the alcohol
abuse taking place in fraternity houses on the
colleges' campuses.
On a local level we continue to receive
complaints from alumni about the lack of
"friendliness and cleanliness" at the chapter
houses. We hear you loud and clear and are
diligently working with our student members
to help them appreciate their
obligations to both them
selves, each other, and the
thousands of men who have
come before them and who
will come after them.
In a sense, the problems
which exist on the college
campuses and in the frater
nity system are a microcosm
of the problems facing
society: lack of a sense of
community, lack of respect
for authority, lack of a work
ethic, declining morals and
ethical behavior and a failure
to hold each other account
able for their actions. It is
easy to become discouraged
at times. However, when
you walk into a chapter with
high academic and personal
ideals, and who respect each
other and strive for personal
achievement, you are reenergized and appreciate
that fraternity in the truest
sense will continue to
survive. *

Saving the Greek System
Val Christensen knew it was time for
change if the fraternity system at Utah
State University had any hope of surviv
ing. Christensen, vice president for student
services at USU, saw a dying fraternity system
that was a mere shell of what he had experi
enced as a college undergraduate member of
Pi Kappa Alpha.
"I was looking for an idea we could use -
anything we could do to save the system,"
Christensen says ofthe seemingly insur
mountable problems he faced in the spring of
1995. "We had tried everything. Carding at
the door. Requiring invitations. Nothing
worked. Alcohol abuse was killing us." The
once-proud Greek system at USU had deterio
rated to the brink of extinction. USU was
experiencing incident after incident, and
alcohol was involved in almost every case.
"We simply weren't getting the best
students," Christensen says. "The best ones
don't want to live in an unsafe place where
they cannot study. They weren't joining
fraternities ."
Christensen wasn't the first to recognize
the problem. Nor was Utah State the first
campus to experience it. Leaders of the
National Interfraternity Conference had seen
the same pattern repeated nationwide, and a
major turnaround had caught their eye. The
Sigma Chi chapter at the University of Maine
had been on the brink of extinction, and in
desperation alumni there imposed a sub
stance-free living environment. It was a last
chance effort to save the chapter. To their
delight, it worked. The chapter rebound~d,
and three years later it is quite successful. A
Sigma Chi now heads the Interfraternity
Council at Maine.
In an effort to stem the deterioration of
the Greek system nationwide, NIC offered a
trial program based on some of the concepts
used at Maine. The result was a substance-free
living program, and NIC floated the idea in
one of its publications in the spring of 1995.
"I'd looked for years for an idea we could
use," says Christensen. "When I saw that
newsletter, I called NIC and asked if I could
implement the program. They agreed, and we
imposed it as our policy, word for word, for
the fall of 1995. Needless to say, I wasn't a
very popular guy around here."
At first, undergraduate men balked at the
idea of ridding fraternity houses of alcohol.
So did members of women's groups who were
accustomed to using the fraternity houses as
convenient places to drink.
Today, many in the Utah State system
have become converts.
"Things have gone really well," says David
Dyer, president ofUSU's Delta Sigma Phi
chapter. "Oh sure, we had some things to
struggle with, like alumni who didn't under
stand what we had done. And as far as
activities go, you have to be creative."
"Still, on balance it's been good. The
problems we used to have with the surround
ing community have disappeared, and we
have a much better atmosphere in the house."
One year later, Christensen considers the
program a resounding success. So does the
NIC, which has partnered with the National
Panhellenic Conference to create a Joint Task
Force on Substance-Free Housing. Together,
NIC and NPC intend to implement the
program on several test campuses for the
1996-97 academic year.
"Men's groups cannot solve this problem
by themselves," says Jean Scott of Pi Beta Phi,
who chairs NPC. "On campuses where there is
a system-wide effort to pursue substance-free
housing, members of women's fraternitites
should encourage fraternity men to give it a
try, and help them to successfully reach this
meaningful goal."
Christensen agrees. "We had only one bad
incident last year in which a fraternity decided
to violate our policy," he says. "They brought
alcohol into the house. The women not only
refused to participate, they turned them in. " It
hasn't happened again.
"Participation of the women's groups is
essential," Christensen says. "We have to
change the drinking culture on campus, and
without the women's participation, it won't
happen."
Christensen hastens to add that the
situation at Utah State is far from perfect. Still,
last year there wasn't a single arrest on Greek
Row, there were no police raids on fraternity houses. Negative incidents of all types dropped dramatically. Christensen also says
that retention rates are up and that members
of Greek organizations are more visible in
community and campus affaits. Volunteerism
has increased sharply.
"It's definitely possible to change the
culture," says Christensen, "but it takes
support from every alumni group as well as
the undergraduates. We're recruiting higher
quality members who are more academically
oriented . Those people didn't join before."
Those very attributes are the things that
persuaded Brad Dove to join the reborn Alpha
Tau Omega chapter at Purdue University. After
closing its chapter 2 years ago, ATO recolo
nized at Purdue last year and enlisted 36 new
members. Dove was one of them.
"I had looked at other fraternities on
campus," he says. "Some of the images I didn't
care for. I thought that with a substance-free
house, there would be more brotherhood. The
chapter would be more committed to academ-. " ICS.
Fraternities have succeeded as part of the
college scene for more than 200 years, largely
due to members' ability to adapt to the
changing needs of students and society. Today,
it is clear that campuses and communities will
no longer tolerate underage drinking as
acceptable behavior. Can fraternities adapt to
this changing expectation?
"Sure, they can adapt," says Christensen.
"But it takes a lot of work from every group,
undergraduates and alumni, men and women. Everyone said it couldn't be done, but we've done it. I've been here a long time, and this is
our best year ever." story by Brian S. Books reprinted by permission of NPC and NIC

When we think

at the College of
Charleston and its
earliest days there,
surprising to
many, was a

- James, younger
brother of
Founder Simon.
James Fogarty grew
up at 90 Broad
Street in Charleston
with his sister and
four brothers, children
of the Simon Fogarty,
Sr. who was brought
over from Kilkenny
County in Ireland in
1850 by his
mother,
Anastasia Hogan
Fogarty.
While a student at
the College of Charles

ames Fogarty is listed
as Alpha #1. On the
original minutes of the
first meeting of the
Fraternity, James
Fogarty's name appears
first, most likely
because the names are
listed in alphabetical
order.
At the second
meeting of this
budding fraternity,
Fogarty was appointed
Warden, under the
imposing title of
"Thuripanioktes," and
he and Simon Fogarty
along with Harry
Mixson were ap

Catalogue of Pi Kappa
Phi there appeared
drawings by Fogarty for
letterheads to be used
by "each of the early 7
chapters." His work is
easily recognizable by
the initials 'JF' enclosed
in a diamond.
After graduating
from the College of
Charleston, Fogarty's
continued his educa
tion at Columbia
University's College of
Architecture in New
York City. Soon
thereafter, he was
• Irs called to serve in World
War I. As a sergeant in
the SOSth Aero
Squadron, he one of
the first soldiers to be
transferred from the
Signal Corps to the
newly created Army Air
Corps.
He eventually
own architecture firm
in Washington, D.C.
He was a dedicated
family man and
enjoyed spending
time with his wife,
Dorothy, his three
sons, William, Oliver
and James, Jr. Fogarty,
and his six grandchil
dren. His love for art
remained a constant
throughout his life as
he was considered a
commendable,
amateur artist. He also
enjoyed traveling,
especially throughout
Europe.
James Fogarty now
