Phi Kappa Tau In A Changing Society

() N HIS ADDRESS to the 1964 1 a tional Inter­J fra ternity Conference, Dr. D avid Dodd H enry retiring pre ident of the ni versity of Illinois, de­clared that "no institution or organization an stand still or live by its past. These a re demanding times in the history of our colleges and un iver i tie , and f ra­ternitie , like every other part of in titutional life, must identify the changes which are taking place and learn how to deal with the impact of change. "

Dr. H en ry credited the con tinuing vita lity of the Greek system to its ca pacity for change and added, "We may hope and believe tha t this kind of on­tinuing self appra isal and modification and thi will­ingnes to adapt to in titutional goa ls will contin ue to cha rac terize fra ternities."

Today, even more so than in 1964 or 1965 we a re involved with problem of change. Author John Brooks has decla red that " in terms of chancre in American attitudes and American va lues the last five yea rs have surely been the crucia l ones in the quarter century since V-J Day. And these changes seem of such a magnitude tha t every America n ex­cept the very young, the ery empty, and the very enclosed must now, to some extent, feel him elf a foreigner in his na tive land."

The Ameri an College Fra ternity System en­dowed with great resources of adaptability to change, must do everything in its power to overcome the widespread criti cism tha t frate rniti es, as an in ti­tution, have fa iled to acknowledge, di scuss, and par­ti cipa te in the very serious and very rea l problem of today. Are we, as fraternity men, doing our best to cope with what M arga ret M ead in her recent book, Culture and Commitment: A Study of the Genera­tion Gap, calls a "prefi gura ti e' society, one in which the traditiona l handing down of knowledge and belief from the elder generation to the younae r is being reversed and in which " it will be the child and not the parent or grandparent tha t repre ent wha t is to come."

It would seem tha t one of the be t way m which to plead the ca e for the continuing vitality of the Greek System i to demon trate throuah our national fra ternity magazines including THE LA -REL tha t no redibility-communica tions gap exi ts between our undergradua tes a nd ounger a lumni ( those under 25 tha t com prise over 50 per cent of

the popula tion ) and tho e Phi K appa T au member born prior to \\ orld \\ ar II . We mu t gi ,·e ample proof that we practice relevancy and have a clo e ra pport with our diver e audien e.

Dr. Frank hlmann a con ulting p ychologi t and a member of 1\ lpha T au Omega at olorado

ta te niver ity, pointed up the problem in a ta lk given a t th 1970 \ ork hop of the olleg Fra ternity Editors As ociation, when after acknowlcdgina that the genera tion aap 1 growina gave th editors a compr hensive analy i of th present ituation by declaring tha t

T he youth of today is prepared to take on the whole world and presumabl'y change it for the better . . . Youth ( the electric generation) see themselves as rejecting the Calvinistic W ork Ethic, as being more honest with themselves, more open to new ideas m ore concerned with beauty and world events, m ore optimistic about the fu­ture, and less impressed with formal authority.

How can the capacity for change that i in­herent in our Greek y tern be channeled into direc­tions tha t will prove mo t endurina and beneficial? How can we cope with the change in our value and a ttitudes that have recently taken off a teeply as a jet plane ? Dr. hlmann, for one, believe that the ol ution to the problem lie in f rming an alli ­ance, a coalition with youth , a proce that require " leveling" or being hone t with one another . . . being prepared to take ri k and " involving outh in the deci ion-making pro e and in trying to toler­a te and under tand one another."

The youth of a ociety are both it greate t re our e and cha llenge. F ra ternitie includina Phi K appa T au mu t continue to be d eply concerned, " involved,' with its member' per onal , phy ica l, mental, and piritua l rowth. "There' a lot of act ion aoing on," Dr. hlmann to ld his audience of editor. "Th i i both a grea t country and a dynami time to be a live. For me there' a dire need for people to 'aet involved, and for tho e who are involved there is plen ty of room in the politica l, ocia l and eco­

nomi life of merica ." * * *

THE LAUREL

The scene on the old seal of Highlands University, a country schoolhouse in a n agricultural setting, symbolizes the original purpose of the university ; to train teachers to serve the people of the Las V egas area . The m otto Su m Americanus - " I am a n American" - and the bird carrying a n olive branch represent two of the most importan t ideas tha t a teacher can impart : those of pa trio tism and peace. The new seal emphas izes the fac t tha t Highla nd is a fin e university in the libera l arts tradition by the placement of the La tin words for arts sciences, a nd humani ties a round the fl ame of lea rn ing. '

THE STORY OF DELTA IOTA The hi tory of Delta Iota chapter da tes back to

193 1 when the K appa Theta lo a l fra ternity was form­ed . The th ree basic principles of K appa Theta were

ervice, acrifi ce, and Loya lty. These principles guided the fra terni ty to become one of the leader on campus, and helped Delta Iota fina lly come into being. Early in 1968, K appa Theta voted to become na tionally affili­a ted and ent a petition for colony sta tu to Phi Kappa T au. In M arch 1968, na tional officia ls came to High­land and inducted the Kappa Theta members into the

ew M exico Highlands U nive rsity Colony of Phi K appa T au. After two eventful years the colony was finally ready to a tta in chapter sta tus, as was witne sed on M ay 2. Delta Iota chapter today continues a campus leader. Just one week before its na tional insta lla tion , the soon to be cha pter found itself to be reigning as the High­lands Greek Week hampion of 1970.

ABOUT HIGHLANDS UNIVERSITY Highlands U niversity is loca ted a t Las Vegas in

northeastern ew M exico, approximately 100 miles outh of the Colorado border and the same distance west

of the T exa line. Historians say the campus was once the meadowland camping place of the wagon tra ins tha t toiled a long the Santa Fe trail.

PRESIDENT DETTRA SIGNS THE DELTA IOTA CHARTER

SUMMER • 1970

DELTA IOTA CHARTER PRESENTATION . Undergraduate Presi­den t Jim Pendergrass accepts the Fraternity's 1 OSth Charter from National Secretary Jack Anson at the Delta Iota Installation Banquet.

To the west of the campus lie the foo thills of the majestic Sangre de Cristo mountains, with peaks tower­ing over 12,000 feet high. To the east a re the mesas that gradually fa ll away into T exas.

The Highlands campus is 6,500 fee t above sea leve l. . \ s a result, the clima te is dry and invigora ting, with cool summers and rela tively mild winters. The sun is a constant companion throughout most of the year.

The university was established in 1893 as an insti­tution of higher learning to serve the people of ew M exico. Highlands has a four-yea r program in liberal a rts, the · sciences, teacher education, and business ad­ministra tion. All of these fields lead to the baccalaureate degree, and in corresponding programs of gradua te study for the master's degree. The school offers, along with the four-year program, a two-year curriculum in business and voca tional fields.

When first founded under the name of ew M exico Normal University, the sta te was still a T erritory. The first president was the la te Dr. Edgar Lee H ewett, dis­tinguished American anthropologist. The adding of nec­essa ry buildings to the campus on the expansion of the curriculum, and a substantial increase in the number of faculty members, stimula ted the University's growth.

Today at Highlands the addition of a new dormi­tory and a teacher education building are indica tive of the present continuing increase in the student body, which now numbers close to 2,500. * * *

Durin o- the next two years they expanded their reputa tion and scope to tour the upper Midwest. Though getting $600 for a rock-and-roll dance, they charged a fee of little or nothing when they came back to Lincoln and played on the WU campu under Upsi lon's sponsorship.

From ·that time, The Eccentrics experienced the triumph and pitfalls of innumerable other rock-and­roll groups- one-night stands, extensive travel in an old bu , on ly hotel rooms to call home. One of Rick's tunes, " hare Me," wa recorded and found moderate uccess locally.

While a t Baldwin­Wallace he wa president of the freshman class the a rne year hi brother, Wendell, was president of the ophomore clas . La ter, both Thad and his brother

were presidents of the Alpha Omega chapter of Phi T au. Thad al o had the distinguished position of as­i tant cook to the Housemother.

After receiving his B.B.A. from Baldwin-Wallace, Thad started post-gradua te tudies a t Iowa State Col­lege where he wa active in the Alpha u chapter. Hi M.B.A. wa completed in evening school a t Western Re erve University in 1952.

After severa l years with the consulting firm, Booz, Allen and H amilton, in the U.S., he went to Iran on a two-year assignment in 1960, which was the beginning of his career in interna tional business.

Copenhagen, and shortly thereafter inve ted in the firm as a partner. In 1967 he sold his ownership in the firm and joined the management consulting depart­ment of Peat, M arwick, Mitchell and Company in the New York office. Thad's goal at this time was to return to Copenhagen to develop PMM & Co. service in the Scandinavian countries. While he and his wife, Else, were on their honeymoon in M allorca before go­ing to ew York, they received a telegram from PMM & Co. saying his first assignment was in Kuwait. After seven months in Kuwait, Thad worked in the West Indies, J apan, and managed the firm's consulting prac­tice in Italy. All this travel re ulted in a truly inter­na tional family. Thad's wife is D anish, and their three boys, Nicholas, Christoffer, and Alexander, have been born respectively in Kuwait, Italy, and the last one in Denmark.

In 1969 Thad returned to Copenhagen to establish PMM & Co.'s consulting practice in Scandinavia.
