SPRING 1982

MIDWEST, WEST AND EAST

3 new chapters reach across AmericaSpanning the country, three new

chapters chartered during the 1981-82 school year, represent the west,midwest, and east sections of the U.S.Rere are their stories:

Bradley University"If it'll play in Peoria, it'll play any-

where" is often heard among playwrights,politicians, and product marketers. Al-though Pi Kappa Phi has already "played"in many other towns and cities, we nowknow we are a "hit" in Peoria as well.On February 27, 1982, Bradley Uni-versity in Peoria, Illinois, became thehome of the Epsilon Mu Chapter as a

weekend of chartering activities wereheld.

Bradley University, many Pi Kappsmay recall, is the home of Ed Kingwho is Dean of Men on that campus.Dean King has served Pi Kappa Phifor many years by attending our SupremeChapters and Pi Kapp Colleges andpresenting his superb talk on Greekritual and its importance to those whoexperience it. Due to a growing relation-ship with Dean King, Pi Kappa Phi haslong wanted to be a part of the Bradleycampus. In the spring of 1981, we gotour chance.

During the final weeks of schoolthat spring, Chapter Consultant Steve

Smith arrived on campus and inter-viewed interested men. Being so latein the year and working in the wake ofa colonization effort by another fra-ternity, only fourteen men were pledgedat that time. But they were a groupenthusiastic about the potential thatPi Kappa Phi offered them.

When school started up in the fall,the strength of the group grew as theymore than doubled their size and beganorganizing their efforts towards char-tering. Less than one year after the firstinterview, the group became the EpsilonMu Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi.

Chartering Officer Jerry Matthews(Samford) and Assistant Chartering Of-

Epsilon Mu Chapter - Bradley University

Epsilon Nu Chapter - California State University - Sacramento

California Stateat Sacramento

At 8:00 p.m. Pacific Standard timeon Saturday, February 27, the CaliforniaState at Sacramento Associate Chapterbecame Epsilon Nu Chapter of Pi KappaPhi, only three hours after Epsilon Muat Bradley University was chartered.The chartering was a grand occasion,with over 100 alumni, undergraduates,parents, and dignitaries in attendance.

The significance of such an eventas the chartering of a new chapter ofPi Kappa Phi was evident in the wordsof the guest speaker, Kenneth Peterson,an alumnus of Alpha Phi Chapter (HT)and in every other individual who wasthere to recognize this new chapter'sachievement. The truth of the matteris that all that was said and done hadlittle significance in comparison to the

chapter's initative and drive.In the fall of 1981 it was uncertain

whether or not Pi Kappa Phi had anassociate chapter at Sacramento. Nomore than eight names were listed ontheir Green Report, and no more thanthat could be possibly returning forfall. No one attended Supreme Chapter.It was under serious consideration not tocontinue on that California campus.Something happened that fall, though.The members at Sacramento noticedthat they were being left behind. Theydecided to build their membershipand to set the goal of being charteredby December 10, 1981. Overcomingvarious problems, they began to growand develop programs and by Decemberthey had enough members to meet therequirements for chartering, but it wasnot to be, as schedules could not beworked out. The chartering had to be

postponed.In most instances, an associate chapter

would have been content to wait untilchartering since all of their previousgoals had been met. Not Sac State,though. They began to set new goalsfor themselves and when charteringrolled around in February, they wereable to charter with twenty-four initiatesand ten new pledges.

Presiding over the chartering cere-monies were Chartering Officer FrankParrish (Iowa State), and AssistantChartering Officer, Sonny O'Drobinak(Purdue). Special thanks goes to GammaChapter, California - Berkeley, forsupplying the chartering team. ClayEdmonds represented the AdministrativeOffice. The new group's Chapter Advisoris Mike Trainor.

Welcoming a new chapter into PiKappa Phi is truly an event and much

ficer Jeff Wrisley (Michigan State) pre-sided over the ceremonies that weekend.The Alpha Phi Chapter at the IllinoisInstitute of Technology and the UpsilonChapter at the University of Illinoisprovided the chartering teams necessaryto conduct the ritual of initiation. HenryGroves (Memphis State) the guestspeaker at the chartering banquet, pro-vided the new Pi Kapps with somethoughts on how they could maketheir fraternity experience more meaning-ful.A special note of thanks is in order

to the Epsilon Mu Chapter Advisor,Randy Schubert. Randy provided valu-able direction for the new group andcontributed much, having to drive onehour from his home to Bradley oneand sometimes two times a week.

Epsilon Mu Chapter continued toshow its strength after the charteringby going on to raise over $2,000 for theNational Project P.U.S.H. This is aremarkable effort from such a newgroup.

Recognizing the charter members ofEpsilon Mu, they are:Bruce Boillot,at, Jeffrey A. Luebker,Bradley M. LaValley, William A. Linardos,Thomas M. Kopera, Daniel L. Charleston,Michael A. White, Bruce R. Silberstorf,Jason D. McDowell, James E. Klein,Hector M. Martinez, William Furling III,Michael D. Casorio, James A. Casorio,Mark Alan Brewner, Steven J. Kriekel,Jonathan B. Lyon, Paul R.

Kenneth Peterson, Alpha Phi - IIT '57,is the Vice-President - Real Estate Divisionfor Metropolitan Life in San Francisco. Mr.Peterson was the guest speaker for thechartering banquet of Epsilon Nu - CaliforniaState - Sacramento.

more a joy when the chapter exemplifiesthe drive that every chapter should haveand treats achievement as an everydaytask. The charter members of EpsilonNu are:

Today I visitedanother David

tit

David at breakfast

The entrance to Linville Gorge isespecially beautiful in the spring. Thisnational wilderness is just far enoughaway from Morganton, North Carolina,that you know civilization has beenleft behind.

Table Rock Mountain defines theright entrance to the vast opening inthe earth from which the river startsas a spectacular waterfall rushing out-ward to create Lake James, a fisher-man's paradise. Boulders the size of afamily bungalow cover the floor of thegorge, but not here at the lower entrance.

Fingers of reasonably flat earthprovide a place for a semi-mountainfamily to live and farm a truck garden.Typical rural homes and trailers arepartially hidden by lush foliage of toomany varieties to name.

Here, where the Linville River flowsanother few hundred yards into thelake that blots out forever the riverLinville, is where my son David and Iwould park our station wagon anddepart for days of backpacking. Thiswas long ago when he was younger,and I was not so old.

Another David is there now and,unlike my David, he will remain. Itwould be easy to envy David and hisfoster parents, Gary and Theresa Bar-rett. He is 8 years old, has well keptblond hair and sparkling blue eyes; notunlike my David before he became asix foot, six inch college graduate. ThisDavid is easy to look at and there aremoments when you would think thatindeed God is in his heaven and all isso very well here at the mouth of Lin-ville Gorge.

But it is not really so perfect as onewould think. David is there because ofP.U.S.H. and many members of Pi KappaPhi. It would be better that he be other-wise, for he traveled many miles to this

idyllic place and none of them werepleasant. His last home was WesternCarolina Center, a mental retardationfacility. There he was institutionalizedwith other very special young boys andgirls.

You see, David was stricken withReye's Syndrome when he had yet tosee his second birthday; and mentallyDavid never has celebrated his secondbirthday. His brain stopped while hisbody grew older. He could not nowunderstand and comment, nor will heever.

Even more tragic, David was violent,uncontrollably violent. He unknowinglycaused destruction to property, others,and himself. David had to be institution-alized to protect all. Ceremic wall tiles,terrazzo floors, and the smell of urinewas the nothingness of his world. UntilP.U.S.H. came along, this was all therewas!Now, in this rustic and picture perfect

world of cats, dogs, trees, water, andthree pound brown trout, and twoloving adults, young David lives. Hestill will never fully understand norcommunicate; his vocalization will remaincrude cries, grunts, growls, and whispers;and less and less frequently his uncontrol-lable violence will bring him to his veryspecial P.U.S.H. provided "time outroom" where he harms none and regainshis composure. Here there is no terrazzo,no wall tiles or uncontrolled urine. Aboy needed a place, a loving and caringenvironment, a moment of delight ina strange and bothersome world createdby a mind that was no longer there.

Yes, today I visited another David atLinville Gorge, thanks to P.U.S.H.

(Written by Durward Owen at 11:35 p.m.on Monday, April 27, 1982, the day hemet David for the first time.)

"1/3 Ranking"For the past two years the Adminis-

trative Office has been developing aranking system for all the chapters.This system has come to be known asthe "1/3 ranking" because it ranksthe chapters in three groups — AboveAverage, Average, and Below Average.Although not exactly split into thirds,it does give chapters an idea where theystand in comparison with other chapters.This evaluation is based on both sub-jective and quantitative considerationsand has no relationship to the Pi KappaPhi awards system. The main purposeof this ranking is to give the studentmembers and alumni of each chapterthe opportunity to evaluate their chapter

on a comparative basis with all otherchapters and to provide the chapterwith a guage of its progress (or decline)from semester to semester. This rankingalso helps the Administrative Staff inpreparing chapter visitation priorities.

Each of the sections (Above Average,Average, and Below Average) is alsodivided into three groups — A, B, andC, to further rank the chapters withA being the highest. Thus, there arenine ranking groups with Above Average"A" being the highest ranked chapters,and Below Average "C" being the lowestranked chapters.How does your chapter rate?

Rick Bohner, Chapter Advisor with EpsilonXi at LaSalle College, receives recognitionfrom the chapter for his help in guiding themas a colony.

LaSalle College,our newest chapter

When a group becomes a colony orassociate chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, itmay take years before they have thenecessary requirements for chartering.Indeed, some colonies never do find theappropriate mix of leadership, organi-zation, and enthusiasm needed to succeed.Some colonies, on the other hand, areexceptional in their reach for charteringand such was the case of the LaSalleCollege colony, now the Epsilon XiChapter.

It took just over five months forthe LaSalle group to be born and raisedto chartered status as a chapter of PiKappa Phi. This is a remarkably shorttime to become a chapter. When char-tering ceremonies were held for EpsilonXi on April 17, 1982, it culminatedan intense and enthusiastic effort byall the members of the group to developsomething new and viable on the LaSallecampus.

PAGE 3

It was in November of last year whenadministrative staff member Mike O'Don-nell arrived on the LaSalle campus toexplore the possibility of developing acolony. In three days, over 40 men hadcommitted themselves to making PiKappa Phi number one on campus.Off to a fast start, this inexperiencedbut enthusiastic group found muchneeded guidance and encouragementfrom their Chapter Advisor, Rick Bohner,an alumnus of Omega Chapter, Purdue,and their Faculty Moderator, BrotherCharles Echelmeier. Much thanks andappreciation goes to Rick and BrotherChip.

The chartering banquet brought newmembers, parents, friends, and specialguests together to celebrate this newchapter. Guest speaker Jim Golden, apast National Historian of Pi KappaPhi and currently a Senior Vice-Presidentof the International Management andDevelopment Institute in Washington,D.C. provided enlightening comments onthe importance of being a concernedcitizen in our country today. Special

Beta has exciting 75th

In the early days of the fraternity, each chapter had its own special "logo." This Beta logo(above) was found in a 1912 catalog of Pi Kappa Phi and became a renewed symbol for Beta's75th. Present at the festivities for Beta Chapter were (from left): Wayne Buffington, NationalChaplain; Troy Dukes, Chapter Archon; Jerry Brewer, Area Governor; Lonnie Strickland, NationalPresident; and David Jaffee, National Vice-President.

An exceptional event in the history ofPi Kappa Phi was marked by an excep-tional celebration as Beta Chapter cele-brated 75 years as a chapter at Presby-terian College in Clinton, South Carolinaon March 5-6, 1982. Months of planningpaid off in an event-filled weekendattended by numerous alumni and specialguests.A formal banquet highlighted the

weekend with a keynote address givenby National President Lonnie Strickland

and a "reaffirmation" of the Beta Charterread by National Chaplain Wayne Buffing-ton and Area Governor Jerry Brewer.Also in attendance was National Vice-President David Jaffee. At the end of thebanquet, the group was adjourned untilMarch 7, 2007, the hundredth anni-versary of Beta Chapter. A model initi-ation, a chapter open house, an alumnimeeting, and an all-night party roundedout the celebration.

Who wrote this?Some thoughts on pledgeship...

From our files we found this com-mentary on "pledgeship." Although thepotential of the fraternity experienceis great, like many things, its potentialcan fall short. How that initial stepinto the world of Pi Kappa Phi, mem-ber education or "pledgeship," isstructured will determine much of thepotential that develops later from newmembers.

Men crave recognition from other men;recognition from other men is the resultof participating in the affairs of othermen. And thus "no man is an island"as said the poet John Donne. No man,hermit or socialite, excapes this funda-mental need.

"Democracy is the worst form of govern-ment, except for all the rest," saidWinston Churchill. And despite all ofits nagging backaches, the institutionaldemocracy has proven in gut-level stylethe worth and human dignity rightlyattributed to each man--all men.

That is, I submit the fabric of purposein what we term the college fraternity:The Development of Each Man's HumanDignity Through Democratic Partici-pation.

In so many ways, I suspect, we haveproven this point — and ably.

Yet, fundamentally (and with sincereregret), I submit that time has erodedthis purpose--time and a patented in-vention whose milk is sweeter to manythan the most sacred of cows--Pledge-ship.

This is believable if one realizes thatpledgeship evolved during the historicalgrowth of the college fraternity; theoriginal 1776 Phi Beta Kappa had no suchanimal. A man was invited to join, hewas initiated, and then people got onwith the job of really experiencingquality interaction.

You see, our definition of the pledgeis entirely wrong.

A pledge is not a coach class passenger.

A pledge is an act -- an exchange offaith between one man and a group ofmen, each pledging their common con-cern and willingness to interrelate tofraternize--for the good--of each--andall.

We have transformed the pledge froman act of faith into a status, and eversince--the college fraternity has been

less democratic, less participatory, lessdignified, and less human.

When a man pledges his faith to us(and we in return, let's stop lookingfor maid service and telephone jockeysand get down to the nitty-gritty.A man's newness to an experience impliesthe need for education, not house-breaking. Therefore, let us then con-centrate on the developing of a poten-tially fine human being; let us teachby living, by discussing, by sharing --rights and responsibilities.

Let us not hesitate to instruct men inour heritage and our specific approachesto democratic government and activity;our officers can lecture, and we candiscuss. Then let us bring our newly-invited members into our chaptermeetings and all major non-secretactivities, giving them the right to vote(and hold office) after observation,formal instruction, and personal inter-action; for example--eight weeks to vote--four months to hold office (exceptPresident and other "heavyweights").

But let us not use pledgeship to exactlyinhibit what we want to perform: tointroduce and involve each man inworthy and significant activities inline with his abilities and interests.

Pledgeship, as presently executed bymany fraternity chapters, is a wonder-ful delaying action but a miserableeducating action.

We are training people to low-scaleparticipation and their consistency inadhering to the laws of pledgeship afterinitiation is remarkable. And thus weare blessed with "sophomoritis" and"back row apathy."

The time to change this is now, foreven though our chapter houses arewarm, lighted and comfortable, thehour is late and outside it is growingvery cold and very dark.

To judge any case for the merits offraternal education, I propose that wetest it against these criteria.

1. Will it develop genuine and realisticfriendship (disciplinary as well assentimental)?

2. Does it enhance the human worthand dignity of each man involved?

3. Is it a growth, a developing ex-perience for each man involvedin the higher educational setting?

Year end review

FROM MY PERSPECTIVE

As I began to write a review of whathas been accomplished for our nationalservice project this year, I was struckby mixed emotions. With so muchhappening with P.U.S.H. I wasn't quitesure where to begin. Even more difficultwas where to end it.On one hand I'm pleased, excited,

and very proud of P.U.S.H. Of what ithas done. Of what it continues to do.But that's just me. I have had the priv-ilege of administering it, experiencingit, and at times actually living it. I haveseen what P.U.S.H. has done to dramat-ically improve the total environment ofinstitutionalized retarded people. I haveseen P.U.S.H. place some of these peoplein a caring professional foster home,where P.U.S.H. has redesigned theirliving environment there to be moreconducive to learning and well being.I have seen P.U.S.H. pull troubled chap-ters together to work for a special com-mon cause. I have seen P.U.S.H. enable allPi Kapps to share in a true feeling ofbrotherhood. I have met and workedwith the dedicated people who makeP.U.S.H. work; Tom Sayre, MickeyThigpen, and the P.U.S.H. Board ofDirectors, to name just a few.

I realize, though, that not everyoneelse, especially the older alumni, havehad benefit of the same insight. So onthe other hand, I worry; Do you reallyknow what P.U.S.H. is? Do you com-prehend the impact it has in the mentalhealth field? Do you understand itsimportance to the very essence of whatPi Kappa Phi is supposed to be? I wonder;Are you as enthused and proud thatYOUR Fraternity founded this project —or do you just passively accept it?

One way or another I wish you wouldtell me so I could be more aware andresponsive to it. I need to know fromYOUR perspective. I need to continue toeducate our membership about P.U.S.H.And most importantly, I need to keeplearning myself.

I look back to the beginning of theyear when we were so bold and con-fident to adopt the theme "Take it tothe limit." I have just now realized my-self, that no matter how far we takeP.U.S.H., it has no limits.

"Pi Kappa Phi is doing fraternity.Had it not been for P.U.S.H. (Pi KappaPhi sponsoring its own charity) I prob-ably would be a TKE today."

— Tobin McTyre, ArchonEpsilon Kappa

"Project P.U.S.H. needs the supportof all chapters in order for it to success-fully grow. Since the Pi Kappa PhiFraternity is founded on brotherhood,there can be no better way for eachchapter to prove this than by helpingout those who are less fortunate."

— Archon, Alpha Upsilon

"The work that Pi Kappa Phi hasdone in establishing this much neededcharity is unsurmountable. This can beseen by the willingness of others tosupport it (referring to corporate dona-tions), and I can enthusiastically saythat Delta Pi is PROUD to contributeto it!"

— Don Hemmelgarn, Delta Pi

"Participating in Project P.U.S.H. isgood for the fraternity's image, helpingothers who are less fortunate than someof us. Also, activities for P.U.S.H. bringpeople together and keeps our spirit ofbrotherhood strong."

— Archon, Beta Alpha

New AlumniDirectory tobe published

Good news to all alumni! . . . PiKappa Phi has responded to regularalumni requests by authorizing thepreparation of a revised and updateddirectory of alumni. The last directorywas published almost five years agoand is surely outdated. This new di-rectory will be a valuable, personalreference volume for all alumni.

The Bernard C. Harris PublishingCompany, Inc., has once again beenselected as the official publisher. Rec-ognized as the oldest and largest ex-clusive publisher of alumni directories,they have completed over the past twodecades, alumni directories for morethan 500 fraternities and universities.The project will be undertaken at nocost to Pi Kappa Phi. Harris has con-tracted to compile, publish, and marketthe directory, financing the operationsolely through the sale of individualdirectory copies to alumni only.

The directory will list alumni alpha-betically with each entry to includename, class, chapter, home address,and telephone, and business or profes-sional information, including title, firmname, and address, and telephone. Twocomplete indexes, one arranged geo-graphically by towns within states, andthe other by chapter will follow thealphabetical listings.

Updated material will be derivedfrom brief questionnaires mailed toalumni in February and March, 1983,and followed-up by telephone in latespring for research and verification ofthe directory information. At thattime alumni will be able to place anorder for a copy of the directory. Onlyenough directories to fill these pre-publication orders will be printed, andcirculation will be restricted to alumni.Release of the directory is currentlyscheduled for fall, 1983.

Sorry we're lateWe apologize for the delay in thisissue of the STAR AND LAMP.Please be advised of the deadlinefor material submitted for futureissues. Fall 1982 — October 4,1982. Winter 1983 — December15, 1982.

Which came first...the chapter orthe house?

"When are you going to get us ahouse?" This is usually the most askedquestion by a new colony, a new chapter,or an older chapter that does not cur-rently have a house. It can also be thequestion which decides the fate of thegroup.

There are some campuses across thecountry where housing is a vital elementif the chapter is to be competitive andoperational over an extended period oftime. But the question must also beasked — How do the plans for a housefit into the overall, long-term plans forthe chapter? And is a house going toguarantee success for the chapter?

Consider this recent case study.A colony at a major school decided thatif they were to be competitive, a largefraternity house was necessary. Thehouse would solve all internal problemsand bring them closer together.

With a capacity of sixty, the housethey leased was one of the largest oncampus. It was located amongst fiveoutstanding sororities, it was on one ofthe main thoroughfares to campus andwas about one hundred yards fromcampus. The house was the only oneequipped with a swimming pool on thecampus. In other words, an ideal houseand an ideal location.

During rush one man was pledged.What happened? Several factors con-

tributed to the demise of the colony.First, the group was so concerned abouthousing they forgot everything else aboutfraternity. If the group would have spent

the time and energy they used in ac-quiring the house, on going out andcontacting rushees, they would havepledged thirty men.

Secondly, the house had becomethe fraternity. The colony assumedpeople would be falling over each otherto pledge after they saw the house. Theway a man was asked to pledge followedthis scenario. A quick tour of an emptyhouse and then hastily asking the pro-spective member to come back soon.

Third, it was too much house. Asrush continued to go from bad to worse,the colony members began to take thingsout on each other. Bills were not paid,members did not show up at rushfunctions and the house began to beneglected. The pressure of trying tooperate a sixty-man house with a twenty-man colony became too much.

The epilogue — the group moved outof the house several thousand dollars indebt. Over half the colony disassociatedfrom the group and the fraternity almostlost a chance to establish a new chapter.

But the greatest loss was these menwill not be able to experience fraternity.Their distorted concept of brotherhoodcentered around a house instead of eachother. In an effort to remain loyal tothe inanimate object, the house, allloyalties to each other were given up.

At times as a colony has to travelthrough the rough proving ground tobecome a chartered chapter of Pi KappaPhi, it is easy to look for reasons not towork as hard as the established chapters

A SAFE INVESTMENTWITH A GOOD DIVIDEND

Have you ever invested in a young man's college education? It is aninvestment in which you can take pride. Here is your opportunity.

The Pi Kappa Phi Foundation is dedicated to providing financial assistanceand encouragement to young men who desire an education but are with-out sufficient funds.

The Foundation is a tax exempt organization operated by a volunteerBoard of Trustees who are members of your Fraternity. The young menwho will be leaders in our nation in the future are on the campuses of ourcolleges right now; some of them need our assistance and support.

An investment in a young man's college education will help to preparehim better, both for good citizenship and for tomorrow's responsibilities.

The inclusion of the following clause in your will (or your designation ofthe Pi Kappa Phi Foundation in your life insurance policy as a beneficiary)will insure that you will be a part of some young man's future: "I give,devise, and bequeath to the Pi Kappa Phi Foundation the sum of Dollars." (or otherwise describe the gift if it consists of realestate, securities, or personal property).

DO IT TODAY

on campus. Not having adequate housingis the easiest excuse to come up withas well as the simplest to explain toother members.

But as the colony member standsoutside the structure where a successfulgroup is housed, all he sees is four walls.He doesn't see the comraderee thattakes place in those walls. He may notwant to see the late night planningsessions where the fine details of rushand the member education programare being planned.

There is no way to explain how goodhard work must build the chapter.A chapter founded on the individualneeds of the member, and using personalsacrifice to develop the group synergy,

will develop a pride amongst its mem-bers that will not fall apart.

The house is only a tool. It is effectiveonly when used to its full potentialby the members. And like any fine tool,it takes time to learn to use it correctlyand in a productive way.

Learn to master that tool. But beforeyou go out and gamble the future of thegroup on a house, examine carefullythe tools you already have. You maybe surprised how far they'll take you.And what is even more impressive andsatisfying than a house, is a strong andproud membership that has learned howto get the most out of their fraternityinvolvement.
