Insiders ' News Late news to inform and help collegiate and alumni DUs Seven S tars popular with chapter leaders DU's new Seven Stars System of chapter self-evaluation and program ideas was a big hit at Regional Leadership Seminars this winter. Consisting of 100 categories composing seven areas of chapter operations, Seven Stars gives chapter leaders a page of reasons why each category benefits the chapter and its members. Then it lets the chapter score itself on 100 1-to10 scales, so it can track its quality over time. Chapter officers at the RLS said they liked Seven Stars because it is easy to use and understand; it explains the reasons why the Fraternity recommends or requires various chapter activities; and the rating scale lets them know how their chapter stacks up against what the best DU chapters use. Seven StaTS can also be updated and added to easily, since it is in a looseleaf notebook. Seven Stars goes first to chapters, then to DU alumni advising chapters. Greek advisors on each DU campus will also get a copy. The project, the result of months of writing and analyzing successful chapter programs, cost about $10,000 and was made possible through annual contributions by DU alumni. (See page 52 for how you can make your contribution to DU programs like Seven Stars.) In this issue, pages 50 and 51 bring you some additional information, and a sample page from the Scholarship section of the Seven Stars System. As you can see, it's written in an informative, casual style, so that young DU officers can quickly identify with it.
Directory brings address updates Many of the 8,700 DU alumni who ordered the new DU Alumni Directory have noticed names missing of men who they know are alive and well. Those men for whom no address was known were not listed in the directory, and the Fraternity needs their new addresses. We would greatly appreciate any such information by mail at P .O. Box 40108, Indianapolis IN 46240. When the next DU Alumni Directory is published - perhaps in five years or so - it will contain names of men whose addresses are unknown, as well as deceased alumni who were contemporaries of living alumni. Deceased alumni who graduated before the eldest living alumni for each chapter will be listed separately. Response to the Alumni Directory has been favorable, and chapters and alumni appear to value this new service of the Fraternity. All comments about the production and content of the Alumni Directory are appreciated and will guide our next efforts. A very few copies remain, and orders can be sent to the Bernard C. Harris Publ. Co., 3 Barker Ave., White Plains, NY 10601. There was one error by the publisher: The SanJose Chapter was deleted from the chapter map. If you wish, you can clip this corrected illustration of the Bay Area in California, and affix it to your copy of the Alumni Directory.

Our Record revision making strides Seven men have been appointed to form the committee revising Our Record, the Fraternity's pledge and member manual published since 1920. The new 24th edition will be the first thorough rewrite in 25 years. Its goal is to make Our Record valuable to men · in every stage of involvement with DU: as a rush prospect, to learn about what DU chapters can offer; as a pledge, to learn about DU's heritage and what membership means; as a member, to enhance skills such as career planning, time management and social interaction; and as an alumnus, as a resource to understand DU organization and how alumni can help their fraternity. M embers of the committee are President Terry L. Bullock, Kansas State '61; Richard Holland, Syracuse '81; Richard Sneed, Louisville '80; Bruce Peterson, Western Illinois '74; Craig Franz, Bucknell '76; Michael Walsh '89, current president of the Washington Chapter and author of two award-winning pledge education manuals, and Executive Director Tom Hansen. Many other alumni will be consulted on specific topics covered in the manual. Release date is fall 1988, and copies will be available for purchase by interested alumni.

Finally, DU rings and ties ready Production delays held up some orders of new DU rings and silk ties, but both are now available through Fraternity Headquarters. The photo above shows the three new ring styles. Gold price increases have pushed the purchase price to $225, but all are 10K gold and will last a lifetime. The silk ties feature two styles: one with the Small Arms of the Fraternity on a navy background, and one with an exclusive blue and gold repp stripe. Each is available for $20 postpaid.

Anniversaries: Worth doing right From some recent good DU anniversary celebrations, here are ten great ways to make your special events work even better

On the cover This year marks a shifting of emphasis. The past year and a half have been filled with plans and blueprints. DU committees have burned the midnight oil to evaluate, revise, test and reshape dozens of Fraternity programs. The overriding concern: does it help the individual man in our undergraduate chapters? If not, how can we fix it so that it does? The cover illustrates a few "works in progress," most of which are discussed in this issue.
DU's new Alumni Chapters Our teams of chapter advisors are now merged into Alumni Chapters; here's how it works, what you can do Alumni Chapter. What does this new DU term mean? How does an Alumni Chapter relate with a Chapter, or the "undergraduate chapter"? What are its duties? Here are answers to these and other important questions about your DU Alumni Chapter, and how it will help us provide our members with the best possible fraternity experience. How is an Alumni Chapter different from a Chapter? Let's start with a chapter. It is made up of all men who have become members of Delta Upsilon through initiation by that organization at one college or university. For example, the Williams Chapter would be all initiated undergraduates and alumni who became DU's through initiation at Williams College. The Alumni Chapter is primarily a subset of the Chapter. It consists of all living members of a chapter, who have graduated or otherwise finished their undergraduate education, regardless of where they now live. There's one important difference. Let's sayan alumnus of the Williams Chapter moves to Schenectady, and wants to be involved with the Union Alumni Chapter. By mutual assent, he can become a part of the Union Alumni Chapter, while still retaining his membership in Williams' Alumni Chapter. What does an Alumni Chapter do? First, it advises undergraduate officers, assisting them in planning, implementing programs, trouble-shooting, etc. Second, it manages chapter property. For example, this may be owning or leasing an existing chapter house, saving funds for a new house, furnishing and caring for college-owned property provided for the chapter's use, obtaining
34
computer equipment for undergrads, or similar duties. Third, it finds more DU alumni to get involved. They may become Alumni Chapter or corporation officers, or advise a particular chapter office, or present career planning seminars, or host rush parties, or work with a parents' club, or solicit contributions from other alumni, or s~pervise the chapter's alumni newsletter. We want every possible DU involved in whatever way he can be, and a body of alumni actively seeking this lifetime involvement. How is an Alumni Chapter governed? Each will set up its own structure, with models provided by the Fraternity drawn .from successful alumni advising teams already in place. Alumni Chapters must meet once a year to select a Trustee, who is the Alumni Chapter delegate to the Assembly and the Alumni Institute each summer. Beyond that, the Alumni Chapter can use any organizational structure that lets it achieve its three goals: advising, property management and alumni recruitment. An Alumni Chapter mayor may not also be the alumni corporation that holds title to chapter property. This decision will depend on the laws of each state and the willingness of alumni to serve in corporation positions. However, every DU chapter should have an alumni corporation that is either a part of or works hand-in-hand with the Alumni Chapter. The Fraternity recommends that Trustees be men with strong interest and available time to actively advise the undergraduate chapter. Such a Trustee would be most familiar with chapter needs and concerns, and would be able to implement what he learns at the Alumni Institute. Also recommended is that
two undergraduate officers serve as either ex-officio or voting members of the Alumni Chapter board. Who chooses the Alumni Chapter officers? Ideally, alumni will gather once a year to elect them, from a slate nominated earlier. Others might be appointed, based on special needs of the chapter. Each alumni Chapter will set up its own recruitment, nomination and election or appointment processes. What happens to Deputies and Counselors? We would hope they would still be involved, but those titles will be dissolved. The main Alumni Chapter officers will be the President and the Trustee. To whom does an Alumni Chapter report? . Each Alumni Chapter will be assigned to a member of the Fraternity'S Board of Directors, and regular reports will be sent between the Alumni Chapter and the ~oard, with copies to 路 Fraternity Headquarters. The report would cover current chapter quality, operational needs, successes and problems, and any questions when the Alumni Chapter needs advice. Is there any cost to running an Alumni Chapter? As with anything else, 路 the necessary operating costs must be borne by the Alumni Chapter stationery, copying and mailing meeting notices and minutes, perhaps some travel. But these expenses should be minimal and can be paid through alumni contributions. There is no charge or dues by the Fraternity for an Alumni Chapter or its members. Is an Alumni Chapter the same as an Alumni Club? DU has in its Constitution provisions for chartered Alumni Clubs. They have served primarily social functions, especially in areas where
DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY
o

there is no DU chapter. An Alumni Chapter could do many things that an Alumni Club does, but it has greater responsibilities beyond just holding events for DU alumni. Also, Alumni Chapters are represented through the Assembly, while Alumni Clubs can choose delegates to Convention. Alumni Clubs are also valuable in providing a ready base of volunteers to advise new chapters. Does an Alumni Chapter have any special powers? One of its powers operates through the chapter's Trustee, chosen by the Alumni Chapter. As a voting member of the Assembly, a Trustee has direct involvement in shaping DU policy and programs. A more direct power is one which has been wielded by the Chapter Advisory Committee: approval of the undergraduate chapter treasurer, and the power to remove him if he is not performing his duties. Since the chapter's treasurer is responsible for thousands of dollars of chapter money, he must be supervised closely while carrying out the chapter's financial will. However, because of the dangers that funds could be misdirected, alumni monitoring of chapter treasurer activities is placed in the Alumni Chapter's hands. Members of the Alumni Chapter, as members of the Fraternity, have the authority to cast votes in chapter meetings, when they deem fit. A coordinated alumni effort to redirect a misguided proposal can save a chapter from a serious downswing. Sometimes guidance and thorough discussion is enough, but sometimes alumni votes are needed. Finally, there is the Alumni Chapter's reorganization power. When a chapter's survival is immediately threatened by serious problems such as hazing, discipline problems, low membership numbers, abuse of the chapter's property, violation of college or local laws, or similar problems, the Alumni Chapter can call upon the Fraternity to declare a chapter reorganization. Some or all undergraduate members can be placed on alumni status after a personal interview process, ifthey are found DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路
not to be committed to principles and policies that will return the chapter to success on campus. Even though each Alumni Chapter will arrange its own officer structure, are there some models? DU already has some fine models that other chapters can use to set up an effective alumni corporation. Each turns on having a different collection of available alumni talent. Teams of 3 to 5 men Many chapters now operate adequately with only three to five active alumni serving as the alumni advising team. Here, there is usually one very dedicated and well organized DU who has made a hobby of helping his chapter. Under the present system, he may serve as both D~puty and Corporation President. Another man is Corporation Treasurer and Secretary, and advises the chapter treasurer while looking after long-term financial needs; a third is a Counselor and works closely with alumni relations and special events. This small team can easily convert to an Alumni Chapter format: the Deputy becomes the Alumni Chapter President; the corporation treasurer becomes the Treasurer; and the other active men become Directors of the Alumni Chapter. They form a Board of Directors with three to five members, and meet regularly to continue what they have been doing. The only weakness of a group this small is that they may not have the manpower to actively call on other alumni to become involved. So, one Director should be assigned as Alumni Recruiting Chairman, and begin to broaden the base ofDU alumni involvement with a few phone calls or personal visits to other DU alumni, seeking their help in very specific ways (e.g. advising the chapter alumni chairman as he edits the alumni newsletter, serving as chairman of an annual Career Day at the chapter, advising the revision of the pledge education program, etc.) The key is to systematically ask alumni to help where needed, and keep them involved thereafter. With a group this small, a dif-
April, 1988
ferent Trustee could be elected three years running to let each man attend the training programs offered at the summer Alumni Institute while also voting in Assembly. Then each man would benefit from the experience of DU alumni advisors from other chapters. Teams of 7 to 12 men Another group of DU chapters has closer to a dozen DU alumni who help out each year. The ex,isting corporation may have a full slate of five officers, while other men are, working as Deputy and Counselors. With 10 men active, here's how the Alumni Chapter might look: President V.P. - Chapter Advising V.P. - Alumni Recruitment V.P. - Chapter House Management Treasurer Secretary Director - Pledge and Member Education (continued on next page)

AluDlni -Chapters (continued)
Director - Rush Advising Director - Long Term Planning 路 Director - Alumni Events Some of these men would wear a second hat, that of corporation officer under the laws of the state or province. Each year, a different man might be chosen as Trustee, to represent the Alumni Chapter at the summer meeting. Or the same man could attend each year, depending on the wishes of the Alumni Chapter. Teams of 15 or more The best. organized DU chapters regularly involve 15 or more men in their alumni advising team, and can operate much the same way as an Alumni Chapter. One fairly young chapter - only 30 years old - has a 15 member board elected on a regional basis. Three directors come from each of five regions; each man is elected for three years, so that five board members are elected. annually. A nominating committee reviews what skills the alumni team needs,
36
and actively recruits men to replace those known to be stepping down. When an alumnus with particular talents is needed, the entire board scans the membership list and seeks him out. With steady turnover but much continuity, alumni events are well planned, the chapter property is well cared for, and the alumni as a group can intervene quickly when the first symptoms of a chapter problem appear, rather than letting it grow into a crisis. It may seem difficult to get 15 men involved, and it is, if alumni confine their focus to only the hometown of the chapter. However, by finding men to represent a certain region or nearby metro area, and by including DUs from all chapters, it's relatively easy to recruit involved DU alumni. How long should Alumni Chapter officers serve? The general answer is, "As long as they're interested and effective." The more specific answer is to set up specific terms of office - probably two or three years. A three year term lets a man acclimate in his first year, excel in his second and train his successor in the third. Many men won't commit if it sounds like they'll be an advisor for life. A short term both helps get busy men involved, and can help move a man along if it turns out
he's not as interested or reliable as the Alumni Chapter needs. What support can the Fraternity provide? The first type of support is training programs, beginning with the Alumni Institute as part of the big DU summer meeting. It's critical that Alumni Chapters budget travel and registration expense for a man to attend each year. Registration costs $75 and includes all lodging and meals, and travel by air generally will be $300 or less; many alumni can drive to the meeting. The second type of support will be linking Alumni Chapters from four or five different DU chapters through a reporting system to one member of the Board of Directors. This will also involve men serving in a modified form ofDU's present Province Governor system. The third support system is sample materials from other Alumni Chapters, and regular DU publications for Alumni Chapter officers, through Fraternity Headquarters. The fourth supporting element is advice from Headquarters staff for particular problems. How do I get involved? Write your nearest chapter to volunteer, or call or write Fraternity Headquarters at the number and address on the first page of this issue of the Quarterly.

Alliance for Brotherhood '88
Kansas to host Convention, Assembly, more How will our Fraternity fare in the coming year? That depends in large part on the response to Alliance for Brotherhood '88 - a new, improved DU summer gathering. DU needs both alumni and undergraduates at this meeting. While we don't advertise in the classified ads, if we did, it would read something like this: "WANTED: 375 men for four days in Lawrence, Kansas, this summer. Help change thousands of lives." Abbreviated to a "want-ad" like this, Delta Upsilon's Alliance for Brotherhood '88 sounds too dramatic to be just a fraternity meeting. But the message is as accurate as any 16 words can be. And the message is clear: Our Fraternity needs at least 300 undergraduates, and 75 alumni, to attend DU's Alliance for Brotherhood '88 at the University of Kansas this July 28-31. A bit of background
This Alliance for Brotherhood is the marriage ofDU's four most important meetings. Two of those meetings spring from DU's unique position in the fraternity world as the only fraternity with a bicameral legislature. The undergraduate Convention has met each summer since 1847; the graduate Assembly has met each fall since the Fraternity was incorporated in 1909, always in New York City. By moving Assembly to the same time and place as Convention, as approved last year, the Assembly can more quickly act on legislation, and learn more about undergraduate concerns. However, the big added benefit is merging the Alumni Institute into the summer meeting for the first time in Alliance for Brotherhood '88. With chapter Trustees now chosen by the Alumni Chapter, ideally from those men most closely involved with chapter operations 38
and management, the Alliance for Brotherhood creates a tremendous opportunity to teach DU alumni how to work best for the undergraduate chapter members and pledges. Alumni join summer meeting
For the first time, the DU summer meeting will combine two undergraduate and two alumni functions. The undergraduates will meet in Convention for the 153rd year, and will spend three days in more than 50 seminars through the DU Leadership Conference. Joining them will be alumni Trustees, meeting in Assembly outside of New York City for the first time in 78 years. And the DU Alumni Institute, formerly held in April, will be conducted on Friday through Sunday, July 29-31. All meetings will take place on the University of Kansas campus, with the Kansas Chapter and its alumni serving as hosts. Lawrence is just 30 miles west of Kansas City, with easy access by road through 1-70, and by air through Kansas City International Airport. Informal attire and a relaxed atmosphere will be the rule. But there will also be some formal events, such as the Opening Convocation for undergraduate delegates, an Opening Reception for alumni, and the DU Chapter Awards Banquet for all delegates and local alumni. DU provides faculty, materials
Annual alumni support and other Fraternity resources cover the materials, faculty and special events for alumni attending the Assembly and Alumni Institute. Alumni delegates also pay a registration fee for meals and lodging while on the KU campus. The cost will be just $75 per alumnus attending the Alumni Institute. Alumni working as Deputies, Trustees, Counselors and alumni corporation officers have received a survey of topics for the Alumni Institute. Their responses and cri-
tiques of past Alumni Institutes , have shaped the agenda for the alumni advising training seminars. Basic topics include financial advising, long-term planning, advising chapter officers, planning alumni events, recruiting alumni volunteers, tax and corporation reporting requirements, providing good chapter housing, insurance, handling chapter discipline problems, and building an alumni IFC. Through the Delta Upsilon Educational Foundation, and through other Fraternity income, all expenses of 30 alumni faculty and materials for their presentations are paid by the Fraternity. Diverse schedule, casual atmosphere
More than 50 different education sessions will be offered in the undergraduate leadership conference, covering both chapter basics and the best in personal development programs DU has to offer. A combination of programs to , manage chapter operations and to develop men's understanding of issues they face makes DU's Leadship Conference one of the most balanced and diverse in the fraternity world. An added attraction will be the informal atmosphere at most sessions, with attire matching the summer weather. There is also plenty of time for men from different chapters to get acquainted, building networks of friendship and ideas that serve far past the end of Alliance for Brotherhood '88. For undergraduate delegates, the registration fee is $50 per man for four delegates per chapter. A fifth or sixth delegate is allowed, but the fee is $100 for them. This delegate fee, the same as last year, covers the delegates room ,and meal costs. By living two men to a room and dining in the residence halls, more DU resources can be directed toward solid educational programs, rather than com-

DU Chapters and Colonies as of March 1, 1988
University of Kansas is centrally located for all DU chapters fortable but expensive hotel facilities. The registration fee covers all materials and supplies for the Leadership 路 Conference and Convention. Delegates receive notepads and a portfolio for handouts, a name tag for admission to all sessions, and other items such as pens and DU hats. Why is DU at KU?
The University of Kansas offers a special combination of factors that make a DU summer meeting work. First, the facilities are excellent and the price is right. Second, the campus is within an hour's trip from a major airport with good connections across North America. Third, it's near a major concentration of DU alumni. And fourth, both the chapter and its Alumni Chapter are well organized and able to act as hosts for the meeting. "This is the first time DU's Leadership Conference and Convention has been west of the Missouri River since 1970," said Gary Golden, Rutgers '74, Chairman of the Undergraduate Activities DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路
Committee and Dean of the Leadership Conference. "We're proud to resume DU's tradition of moving this great meeting to various campus sites, and KU fits nicely into our plans." It is the second consecutive year DU is on a college campus, and the first time the Kansas Chapter has hosted Convention. As the DU Educational Foundation endowment grows, more travel costs could be paid through the Foundation for undergraduates and alumni attending the DU summer meeting. If all 90 active DU chapters were to bring four delegates and an alumnus, and the average travel cost per man were $200, DU would need $90,000 a year in endowment income; present annual assistance for this meeting amounts to only a tenth of that amount. An increase in the Educational Foundation's endowment of $1 million would let each chapter bring a full contingent to Alliance for Brotherhood '88 and for each year to come. Special events planned Besides the training programs
April, 1988
for undergraduates and alumni, there's plenty else going on. Will Keirn, Pacific '75, who speaks wid~ly to campus fraternity leaders, will open the show with a nationally renowned presentation, "Demythologizing the Animal House." Friday evening features an outdoor barbeque before the Convention session. Saturday will bring the Assembly and the Awards Banquet, and a reception for local alumni. During the weekend, there will be special meetings for chapters who will host Regional Leadership Seminars next winter; for chapters and colonies from Canada; for men interested in working for DU as Leadership Consultants; meetings of chapters in each of DU's 12 provinces; individual meetings for each chapter to review current problems and plans to improve; a tour of the Kansas Chapter's house, and special ceremonies for men awarded the DU Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award. U ndergrad uate registration is due by May 1 and alumni registration by June 1. These deadlines are vital to arrange for housing, meals and meeting facilities .

Fraternity board expands to 21 men; DU seeks nominations for 18 aluITlni An expanded board of directors, with men serving both International Fraternity roles and building ties with nearby chapters, is a major priority of Delta Upsilon this year. And Delta Upsilon needs your help to achieve it. Through the accompanying nomination form, DU is looking for men to fill some of 18 alumni positions on the Board of Directors. The remaining three positions are elected by undergraduates annually. A revised Board committee structure and a plan to tie board members to nearby chapter means that election to the Board requires some time commitment. Board members attend four meetings a year, including one at the Leadership Conference and Convention, and attendance at one Regional Leadership Seminar is expected. Also, Board members should attempt to visit one undergraduate chapter each fall and spring. Further work is required in contacts with local alumni advisors from up to five local chapters. These contacts bring information about DU activities to the alumni advising teams, and in turn reveal opportunities for the Fraternity to help its chapters. In return, Board members gain the satisfaction of involvement in Delta Upsilon. Improved programs and service to undergraduate and alumni members alike are DU's goals, and Board members set and monitor policies which help achieve it. There is special need for men with experience in finance, real estate transactions, educational development, public relations and public speaking, and fund-raising programs. These men can fill specialized offices or advise chapters with questions about their projects. Terms of one, two and three years are available. The Nominating Committee of the Fraternity will
40
recommend a slate of men to the annual Assembly, meeting at the Leadership Conference and Convention on July 28-3l. Any DU alumnus is eligible to serve, and men are welcome to nominate themselves. Here's how the Board of Directors will be organized to accomplish the many facets of our Fraternity'S operation.
More men on the board means more active committees to plan and guide important DU programs
The Board will have six committees: Undergraduate Activities, Graduate Activities, Alumni Chapters, Finance, Administration and Nominations. A seventh committee, the Executive Committee, is contemplated, but will not take effect until its duties and powers have been determined. The Undergraduate Activities Committee oversees all Fraternity activities related to undergraduates. This includes chapter programs, expansion, chapter discipline and other problems, collection of undergraduate reports and fees, the Regional Leadership Seminars, the Convention and the Leadership Conference. It also has oversight responsibilities for the performance of Leadership Consultants who work most directly with the undergraduate chapters. It -also reviews publications such as Our R ecord and the "DU Dialogue," and the Seven Stars System for chapter self-evaluation. The Graduate Activities Committee is responsible for the Assembly and the Alumni Institute,
the other two parts of the DU summer meeting. It supervises publications such as the Quarterly and the DU Alumni Directory, and important occasional publications like the ISO-year history. It supervises the awarding of alumni honors, including the DU Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award, and the establishment and recognition of DU alumni clubs in areas where no DU chapter exists. The Alumni Chapter Committee has charge over the programs of DU's new Alumni Chapters ~ the teams of DU alumni which advise our undergraduate chapters. It guides programs to help Alumni Chapters accomplish their mission of advising undergraduate officers, managing chapter property and recruiting more DU alumni to help the chapter. The Finance Committee approves the budget and monitors Fraternity finances under the supervision of the Treasurer, and in communication with the DU Educational Foundation. The Administration Committee overse~s general Fraternity operations, including the Headquarters, and advises the professional staff on various matters affecting the Fraternity. The Nominating Committee serves to constantly identify alumni whose talents could benefit the Frate~nity and the Foundation, and investigates their interes.t and ability to .assist. It shares information with a similar committee of the DU Educational Foundation. To the Executive Committee will be delegated oversight over particular Fraternity functions, as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors. These committees will be filled by the 18 alumni and three undergraduate members of the Board of Directors, and by other qualified DU alumni and undergraduates appointed to serve on these committees.

Hauck: Teamwork key to NASA mission Our Quarterly exclusive from the next Shuttle's DU pilot In August, when Discovery is scheduled to resume U.S. space shuttle flights, aD U from Tufts will be thinking about how his five-member crew will be working together. The mission, originally set for February, creates more than the usual suspense. It is the first flight since the Challenger disaster which killed the seven men and women aboard that flight in January 1986. In these thoughts, written exclusively for the Delta Upsilon Quarterly, Capt. Rick Hauck, USN, Tufts '62, tells why it's vital for the crew to work as a team when the United States returns to space:
I am honored to contribute my thoughts to the Quarterly regarding our preparations for the upcoming launch of Discovery. It should not be surprising that the recurrent theme that I have reflected on so much since joining NASA ten years ago is one that can be fostered so well by fraternity life - and that is TEAMWORK. The word fraternity implies a nurturing, symbiotic environment where the efforts 'of many contribute to the common good. It is really a wonderful experience to see an enthusiastic group, well led, meeting challenges, perhaps suffering failures, but pulling together and attaining ultimately their aim. There's just no getting around it - pointed in the same direction, any group of people can accomplish significantly more than can an even greater number of people individ ually. In fact, it is this spirit of teamwork which distinguishes the successful applicant for the astronaut program from many others who have outstanding credentials but who are loners or egocentrics. There is rio place for the latter in a small space capsule. A person who "does it his way" is best left on the ground. Two years ago with the Challenger disaster this country lost seven of its brightest and best. It suffered a painful wound to its na42
stronger and more mature than ever before. I see my four years as a member of Delta Upsilon at Tufts University as a major contributor to my development as a team member and team builder. On the day that Discovery launches there will be more than a bit of teamwork and fraternity which I learned in my college days helping me meet the challenges that present themselves.

" tional pride, it has seen its leadership in space exploration slowly erode. But at the same time, with the support of the American people, a dedicated team formed by NASA and private industry has brought the manned spaceflight program back to readiness,
Brother Hauck's first post-Challenger flight will be followed by another DU two flights later. Col. Brewster Shaw, USAF, Wisconsin '67, has been named as pilot of the . five-man crew for the third flight this year aboard Columbia. Brother Shaw flew Columbia before, on the ninth shuttle mission, and commanded the 23rd flight in November on Atlantis. His next fli~h.t will be a classified military mISSIOn .
Delta Upsilon wishes both astronauts and the entire crew good luck and Godspeed for their missions, and the Quarterly thanks Brother Hauck for taking time from his rigorous training schedule to share his thoughts with his fellow DUs.

Evans sets a fast pace for YMCA as Chairman of national board International conferences, downtown residential development, health and fitness centers, a budget of $26 million, 2,000 local outlets - sounds as though this Chairman of the Board is really in the fast track. And he is, especially when those outlets include another 7,000 paid staff, 325,000 volunteers and a combined budget of a billion dollars. Three hundred and twenty-five thousand volunteers? What kind of enterprise boasts those numbers? Why, it's the "Y," and Sam Evans is the man in command. Now beginning his second year as Chairman of the national Board of Directors of the YMCA, Brother Evans has never forgotten that it's volunteers who make the Young Men's Christian Association so successful. "I feel like I'm their representative on the board," he said. "That's the role I play." Brother Evans, Kansas '64, joined the board of his Salina, Kansas, home YMCA in 1969. Four years later, he was named to the national
board. Since then, the focus has shifted from young boys to the family, as the needs have changed. He is also a member of the executive committee of the YMCA World Alliance. Those duties call him away from his work as partner of the Evans Grain Company of Salina, and take him to foreign lands to promote the interests of the YMCA. Last summer, Brother Evans attended the world meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, one of 92 national representatives there. He also visited Moscow at the invitation of the Soviet Ministry of Youth Organizations, discussing possible exchanges for educational and cultural events between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. Other projects on the YMCA agenda include aid to famineplagued African nations, work with juveniles in the American criminal justice system, reviving the YMCA dormitory system as safe shelter for job seekers, and stressing the Christian values of the YMCA in all areas.

180-page book captures DU-Buckeye spirit
Lurding writes great Ohio State Chapter history A tremendous chapter history has been written by a loyal Ohio State alumnus, and after a year's work and $10,000, it's a great sign of commitment to setting down memories of one chapter's experience in Delta Upsilon. The author of this 180-plus page book is Carroll L. Lurding, Ohio State '59, and it is truly a remarkable work. 1t tells the story of one DU chapter like it was and is, with no punches pulled. When the chapter dominated campus, it shows, and when troubles abounded, that's all there too. Copies were sent to all DU chapters and members of the Board of Directors, and all comments have been in strong praise of this effort. Brother Lurding also wrote the following account of how he went about recording more than one hundred years' history, in the volume published by The Dikaia Foundation of Ohio State. Justice - Time and Change, a his-
tory of Delta Upsilon and the Greek system at Ohio State, has been enthusiastically praised by all who have received it. The book is a one hundred year journal beginning when the first effort was made to plant the DU flag in Columbus. It was published by The Dikaia Foundation, the chapter's educational foundation. No other DU chapter has ever produced a volume like it, nor has any other fraternity or sorority at O.S.U. In fact, several national fraternities and sororities have never published histories. It is a project that should be considered by other DU chapters. The history is an interesting and amusing report of the many events which have taken place in the name of Delta Upsilon at Ohio State. It also includes statistical information about the O.S.U. Greek system which has never before been compiled. The book reveals the important role in which the Ohio State Chapter has played over the years with the international fraternity, and the impressive record it has produced on campus. It was written in an effort to preserve information and records 44
which are quickly becoming lost and forgotten over several generations. Names and events of decades ago can now be re-lived by new members who can more fully understand the true meaning of fraternity membership, along with the joys and hardships of the past century. The history has become an important part of the chapter's pledge education program. To say that the writing of a chapter history is simple is a misstatement. It is an ambitious undertaking, but not nearly so difficult as one might suppose. The resources are readily available and plentiful. It is a project that will be met with enthusiastic cooperation - from members and outsiders alike. Source material for the Ohio State history came from an appeal to alumni; a storage room at the chapter house full of old records, minutes, pictures and correspondence; past volumes of the Universityyearbook at the O.S.U. library; past editions of the Delta Upsilon Quarterly at the chapter house and fraternity headquarters in Indianapolis; and old fraternity system records at the Greek Affairs Office and the University archives. The
national offices of other fraternities and sororities were also happy to assist. There is even a large collection of Delta Upsilon material available in the New York City Public Library. It took approximately one year to collect, write, edit and publish the Ohio State history. The cost will vary from a few thousand dollars to as much as $10,000, if it is desired to create a hard-cover publication with several pictures. A published history may well be one of the best investments a chapter can make. As a result of the material assembled for the history, an archives room is being organized at the Ohio State chapter house. It will become a pledge class project as each class will select a period or a subject to create for permanent display. Eventually, the chapter will have a room full of history to complement its printed one. Additional information, for any would-be authors, is available from Carroll L. Lurding, Ohio State '59, author of the Ohio State book, at P.O . Box 7408, Louisville, KY 40207.

How do the best chapters do it?
What DU award-winners did in 1986-87 Last summer, five chapters were named the most outstanding in Delta Upsilon Fraternity, and one was awarded the Sweepstakes Trophy as Best Chapter for the 198687 academic year. Here, in a nutshell, is why those chapters were so honored, and why other chapters won DU awards for particular areas of operation. Sweepstakes Winner: Kansas Chapter
A well-rounded overall program moved the Kansas Chapter to the top of the Fraternity in 1986-87. It began with a sophisticated rush program that selects men during their senior year in high school and has most pledged by the beginning of summer. Academically they ranked in the top half of fraternities and the chapter does well in athletics. The chapter house is immaculate, well maintained and improved regularly through the work of a professionally run alumni advising system and parental involvement. In philanthropy, the Kansas Chapter raised more money for The Villages, DUs philanthropy, than any other chapter, and was involved in several service projects. Men from Kansas assisted the Central Missouri Chapter and the Emporia State Colony in teaching rush and administrative skills. This inter-chapter involvement is a strength more DU chapters could emulate. Responsible alcohol education and a policy prohibiting chapter funds spent on alcohol rounded out a great program for the Kansas Chapter in 1986-87, earning it the Sweepstakes Trophy as Best Chapter. Bucknell Chapter
Bucknell University, in the center of Pennsylvania, was until 1950 the home of the Demostheneans, a local fraternity established in 1899. Since its affiliation with Delta Upsilon, the Bucknell Chapter has DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY'
continued its long tradition of sponsoring the annual Demie Play, which raises more than $2,000 a year for charity. Demie Play was again a success last year, bringing good publicity to DU. The chapter also has been well run, and its rush, pledging and initiation results are strong. Bucknell DUs are very active in campus organizations. The IFC President,john Shmerler, is a DU. He has been a leader in getting the Greek system at Bucknell to examine its social activities, and particularly open parties involving alcohol. Some concerns about our chapter's position were evident last year, but overall the chapter excels. DePauw Chapter
When you look for a chapter with excellent academics, DePauw springs to mind . In the spring of 1987, the DePauw Chapter was not only the best fraternity in terms of GP A, it topped all Greek houses, including the sororities! Only a tiny residence hall floor had a better GPA than DU's 3.02. After a complete reorganization in 1976, the chapter has had excellent rush results, and made them more efficient by expanding summer rush gatherings and contacts before men came to campus. Pledge and member education are strong, and the chapter's alumni advising is thorough and well respected by the chapter. Alcohol use on campus remains a concern, and DU has controlled its events far better than most on campus. However, more progress could be made in ending chapter expenditures on alcohol. Florida Chapter
After winning the Sweepstakes Trophy the year before, Florida made the Top Five this past year. Its shining strong point is chapter relations. A sophisticated system to monitor chapter involvement in almost every campus activity has led to honors on campus and winning
April, 1988
an award as an outstanding fraternity on campus for several years in a row. Florida pledges men each semester and has a solid member education program. Both academic and athletic records are strong, and alumni advising is among the best in the Fraternity. The chapter has also had an excellent record of placing men into graduate and professional schools, and in earning top honorary positions on campus. Washington Chapter Many DU chapters benefited from two excellent manuals on pledge education from Washington, and the revised program there was named best in Delta Upsilon. With pledge classes exceeding 30 for two years in a row, this program was instrumental in passing along values of excellence to new members. The chapter successfully reversed a negative image from a large open party incident of half a decade ago, and sponsored creative programs for alcohol education on campus. Scholarship is excellent, with a chapter average above a 3.0, although no rankings of fraternity GP As are kept on the University of Washington campus. This chapter was one of the first in DU to vote against spending chapter funds on alcohol. Use of alcohol thus properly becomes an individual choice, rather than chapter policy. More individual involvement in campus activities would make the Washingron Chapter even stronger. .
• Delta Upsilon gave many more awards for achievement during the 1986-87 academic year at the Leadership Conference and Convention in August, to recognize chapters who are doing well, and those who are improving. (continued on next page)

Awards (continued)
Here are some of the specialized awards given to chapters for excellence in certain areas. Community Relations Project Award
This award is made for a chapter with a well-organized project of service to its community. The Maine Chapter was honored for its work with the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program in Bangor. For the past few years the chapter has held day-long events for the "Waiting Littles" - children waiting for big brothers and sisters. These young boys and girls might be disappointed at not being involved yet in Big Brothers/Big Sisters, but the DU program helps bridge the gap. The chapter enlists the help of the other Greeks on campus and splits the children up into teams. The day is spent at the playground, bringing fun for both the children and the chapter members. There was plenty of ci~y-wide publicity of the event and the Big Brothers/Sisters Organization is grateful to the Maine Chapter for its help with these youngsters. Dr. Karl and Jeanetta Menninger Award
The Menninger Award goes to the chapter that gives the most in time, effort, and funding to The Villages, the Fraternity's philanthropy. The Kansas Chapter did just that: gave time and effort to raise money. Chaptei members visited the Villages facilities, and did volunteer work at each home. The chapter also raised more than $2,000 for the Villages through an annual football tournament. The Chapter is not only involved with the Villages, but has a very strong overall chapter relations program. Best Chapter Publications Award
The Nebraska Chapter took this award by publishing a newsletter 48
that was timely, full of alumni news, and well printed. Their newsletter offers the alumni and parents a good view of what the chapter is doing and what the future plans are. The newsletter also has individual alumni articles, recognizes alumni for their contributions to the chapter, and has really good photos that are upto-date, and not just old file photos. The chapter gets very good attendance and support from the alumni. Much can be attributed to the high quality of the chapter's publication. Best Chapter Relations Program
The chapter that won this plaque at Convention this year certainly works hard on the chapter's Public Relations program. The DePauw Chapter has a fine chapter public relations program that encompasses all areas of relations, with all the various audiences that affect every DU chapter. The chapter has a very good newsletter that updates the alumni at least four times a year. The chapter also hosted the biggest alumni event the chapter has ever seen, the 100th anniversary of the chapter. This gathering of alumni was very well attended and gave the chapter help and support from dozens of alumni. The chapter also participated in many service projects including quite a lot of work for The Villages, including working to fix the physical plants of homes of the 'children. Besides these events the chapter is very involved on campus and in the community on an individual basis and is making the name of DU even better. It also sends thorough, complete reports of chapter progress to the Fraternity Headquarters, and created a model program to ensure that chapter members' and pledges' visits to other DU chapters did not cause problems for their hosts. . Financial Management Award
The Tennessee Chapter won the Financial Management Award by solving major problems with the hard work and sacrifices of the un-
dergraduate members. The Chapter submitted regularly quarterly financial statements, an annual budget, and had an outside audit of the chapter books. The Chapter brought the chapter's accounts receivable level to zero through tight fiscal management and by setting up a Financial Review Board with the chapter alumni. The Tennessee Chapter also has started long range planning that will help the members plan for the future of the chapter. Best Pledge Education Award
The chapter that won this award has set new standards for all DU chapters. The Washington Chapter won the award by writing and implementing the two best pledge manuals in the Fraternity. The chapter's pledge manual was organized and written in a very informative and educational way. The manual provided the pledges a lot of the essential information they need to be excellent, productive members of the Fraternity. The Washington Chapter pledge education program is based on the understanding of not only DU history, tradition, but also on the workings and standards of the chapter. And it set high expectations for excellence from the first day of the pledge program, including a pledge retreat the first weekend of classes. High academic standards and a strict code of conduct have almost eliminated problem behavior among DUs at Washington, and the chapter's GP A is above a 3.0 on a 4-point scale. The second pledge manual is the chapter's Pledge Educator's Manual. This teaches the pledge educator to organize, manage, and run an effective pledge program. It also helps him involve every chapter officer in teaching the pledges how the chapter works and what each officer does. This manual has been distributed to other chapters and will help pledge educators at all DU chapters . It will also serve as a starting point for the planned 1988 revision of Our Record.

Science topics inspire DU authors The Hunting of the Quark, by E. Michael Riordan, Ph.D., Technology '68, 389 pages, $9.95 paper back, Touchstone/Simon & Schuster, Inc., Rockefeller Center, 1230 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. As a graduate student and research 路 associate at Stanford, Dr. Riordan participated in experiments to find the elusive quark ... the smallest known particle deep inside the atomic nucleus. This true story of modern physics recounts
DUBooksheH how two research teams, one at Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island, the other at Sta,nford, were successful in their pursuit of "something" whose size, shape and habits could only be guessed. Quarks come in six "flavors" up, down, strange, charm, top and bottom. First hints of a quark's existence were.uncovered at the Stanford Linear Accelerator.
Riordan chases six flavors of quarks and other mysteries In November 1974, the simultaneous discovery of J/psi, a particle that cornered the elusive fourth quark, charm, won the Nobel prize in 1976 for Burton Richter of Stanford and Samuel Ting of M.I.T. The book about experimental science is set during the late 1960's and early 1970's with Riordan balancing clear explanations of sci-
entific principles with vivid characterizations of the principal scien tis ts. With Bruce N. Anderson, Technology '69, Dr. Riordan wrote The Solar Home Book, and he has just completed the manuscript of another book The Shadows of Creation, with co-author David N. Schramm, Technology '67. From 1985 to 1987 Dr. Riordan worked as a research scientist with the University of Rochester and in 1988 began work at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center as Science Information Officer.

Awards Province Awards To encourage involvement among neighboring DU chapters, awards were given for the Best and Most Improved Province. Province 12 won Best Province. It includes the Alberta, Oregon State, Washington and Washington State chapters and the Oregon Colony. As a province, these chapters and colony had a high rate of progress and led the Fraternity in coming up with the most up-to-date chapter programming. Province 4 won the Most Improved Province Award, including the Florida, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and Virginia Tech chapters. All have shown great improvement DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路
over the past few years, increasing chapter size and the quality of chapter programming. Scholarship Awards To encourage and reward excellent chapter scholarship, two new awards were created: Academic Excellence, and Academic Achievement. The Excellence awards went to seven chapters and two colonies who ranked first on campus in chapter grade point average. The Achievement Awards went to 18 chapters and one colony who ranked above the all-fraternity and all-men's campus average. On many campuses, no rankings are kept, or DU's record would be even better. Those chapters were noted in the October Quarterly.

As you can see, the first paragraphs explain the subject, stating why it's important to the chapter and its pledges and members. Several specific ideas are listed. Then there's the rating scale. By checking how many points the chapter has earned, its officers can see with detail what they can do to improve.
Seven Stars comes with a scoresheet, so a chapter can give itself an overall rating. There's also a place to record scores from term to term, bringing the long-range trends to light. And as good chapters send printed items that work well to Fraternity Headquarters, they'll be reprinted and sent to all chapters and advisors, to insert behind each page of Seven Stars as an ever-changing example of how a good DU chapter works.
What health risks challenge DUs in the 1990s? What are the biggest health problems and factors facing men today? In a survey of seyeral DU physicians, these topics were mentioned as most significant: ' Smoking: Risks of cigarette smoking are well known, and include lung cancer, increased heart attacks, higher blood pressure and health problems for those nearby through "shared" smoke. Pipe and cigar smoking, and use of chewing tobacco or snuff, carry risks of mouth and lip cancer. Stress: Lack of management of stress can compound other health problems, and can lead to irritability, loss of concentration, sleeplessness and reliance on temporary solutions such as alcohol. Most companies today have stress man';lgement programs, and talking Oyer problems with trusted friends and exercisealsb help. Alcohol: Still the most commonly abus~d ,substance today, drinking ~ problems affect more workers than any other medical problem. Binging and chronic drinking patterns call for路 professional help, Which is readily available in most communities and

through many health insurance plans. Early drinking habits are hard to break, so it's wise to practice moderation early, and to remember that not everyone uses alcohol, despite popular misconceptions. Drugs: Cocaine, crack, marijuana, and abuse of prescription drugs can have dangerous and fatal consequences. Most companies today refuse to hire men they even suspect have drug problem. Professional treatment is definitely in order; supportive friends must learn how to intervene and help a man in need. Exercise: An exercise program can fit into any age or lifestyle. Consult your doctor before beginning, and make sure it contains exercise that builds your cardiovascular system. Diet: Amid all the fads is sound advice: A varied, well-balanced diet, with sufficient protein,vitamins, minerals and fiber, and caloric intake appropriate to your weight and exercise program, is the cornerstone of good health. Cancer: Along with lung cancer from smoking, and new concerns about radon gas in homes and buildings, these types of cancer are of special concern: Prolonged unprotected exposure to sunlight Gin elevate the risks of skin cancer; most forms can be treated if detected early, but some . types of skin cancer can be fatal. Testicular cancer can strike at any age and can be fatal if not detected early. The good news is that treatment is very successful if caught in
a
its initial stages. Doctors recommend weekly self-examination, to detect any change or unusual lump or thickening. It's comparable to breast self-exams for women. Ask your physician for methods of selfexamination. Colon cancer is a special concern for men over age 50. Regular checkups are recommended to screen for this special risk. AIDS: It's clear - AIDS is a killer, and can potentially affect men in almost any sexual relationship. The safest preventative is celibacy; next safest is a monogamous sexual relationship where neither partner has been exposed. Proper use of condoms and spermicides containing N onoxynol-9 provide further protection. The highest risk gr9ups are homosexuals, intravenous drug users, and men having sexual relations with prostitutes. Sexually transmitted diseases: No longer ate syphilis and gonorrh~a the only concerns. Chlamydia is the most common STD and can cause sterility and increase risks of d:topic pregnancy in women. Herpes and genital warts are of further concern. Accidents: The leading killer of men 18 to 25 is preventable accidents - auto, work and home. Use of seat belts, workplace safety equipment, smoke detectors and a horne safety program can save lives and prevent devastating injury. Health care: Regular checkups are recommended every four years for men 18 to 35, every two years until age 50, then annually thereafter.

Incentives (positive reinforcement)
When men do well academically, reward them. Nothing breeds success like recognizing success, and everyone likes to be praised where everyone can hear. Positive reinforcement works much better than negative. Some chapters tried a steak-andbeans dinner - men above the chapter GP A got steak and those below only beans. A better way is to give everyone decent burgers, but those who do well - Dean's List, accepted into honoraries, big improvement,over their cumulative GPA, etc. - get steak. Praise people regularly, even to the extent of a weekly round of applause for men who get good grades on midterms, papers, etc. Have plaques to recognize top grades in each class in school, top pledge, Dean's List, honoraries, most improved, etc. Give your chapter 1 point each for: Permanent Dean's List plaque Applaud men each week for excellent work Permanent plaques for members in campus honoraries Special reception or party for men admitted into grad school Permanent book to record chapter's academic achievements : Alumni will fund project for chapter if certain GP A reached, or if no men under 2~O, etc. Give certificates,trophies, etc., to men who excel each term . Bring in speakers about honoraries and scholars:hips available in each departrpent on campus " Give special awards and scholarships in honor of qistinguish~d chapter alumni .

D U' s newest chapters show the competition
what it really means to be a fraternity Dear Brothers: Creative insights - genuine strokes of brilliance - are often the result of great frustration . Indeed, if necessity is the mother of invention, frustration must be the father! Delta Upsilon, the creative and brilliant invention of 1834, was no exception. Before Delta Upsilon, college men had two often equally unattractive choices: they could remain independent and in so doing forego the learning op ~ portunities of group association and suffer the loneliness and isolation of "going it alone"; or they could join an existing "social" fraternity bound, as most were, in secrecy, racism, religious discrimination, elitism, and hazing. These unattractive alternatives created the frustration which led our Founders to create Delta Upsilon - the third alternative.
The President's Report This third alternative was a totally new and very exciting invention - nonsecret, opposed to hazing, egalitarian, founded on justice and fair treatment of all people, working to achieve the development of character, the promotion of friendship, the advancement of justice and the diffusion of liberal culture, accepting members of all races, nationalities, religious and socio-economic backgrounds, and stressing intellectual, moral, and spiritual development as well as social and athletic endeavors. Without question, Delta Upsilon was something very new - the muchneeded third alternative. The amazing thing about the now ancient formula of the founders is that in every place where it is really tried - it still works! Three recent exciting examples will suffice as illustrations.
In January, Delta Upsilon installed its new chapter in Santa 54
Barbara. Fifty-nine brothers took the oath, a number made more remarkable by the fact that the colony had existed for less than one year. Under the brilliant leadership of Brother Doug Makishima and a core group of twelve, the founders of the Santa Barbara Colony chose to build a real Delta U psilon chapter founded on the oldest DU principles on a campus where only social fraternities had previously existed, a third alternative. Th~y opened their doors to men of ail races, religions, and backgrounds, vocally opposed all hazing, and quickly developed responsible intellectual and character building programs. Not surprisingly, the campus and administration welcomed the new chapter with open arms. Also, in January, Delta Upsilon installed its new chapter at CulverStockton. This chapter was colonized by thirteen young men who had de-pledged a local fraternity engaged heavily in hazing. These young men wanted a new and different third alternative. Under the outstanding leadership of Brack Collier, they petitioned Delta Upsilon to become a colony. These young men also elected to follow the formula of our Founders and have not only already achieved chapter status but have become number one in grades on their campus as well. In February, Delta Upsilon installed its revived chapter at Oregon. The Greek Advisor there related that a young man named Bret Jordan came to him a year and a half ago and said he had twelve friends who didn't care for the existing fraternities on campus and wanted to start something new. The Advisor told them their plan was practically impossible. In true Delta Upsilon spirit, of course, these young men did it anyway! Fifty-six brothers were installed in that chapter which is also totally opposed to hazing and has stressed intellectual and cultural pursuits in
the Delta Upsilon tradition. The Advisor tells us our new chapter is already setting the pace for the entire campus and the Panhellenic representative who spoke at the installation banquet said that having Delta Upsilon on the campus was a "breath of fresh air" to the Greek system. By the way, Oregon DUs also rank first in chapter GPA on campus. The message is clear. Our founders did indeed have a brilliant and creative insight. The campuses of our two nations still desperately need and want a third alternative, a place for young men to grow and develop in an atmosphere of friendship and tolerance, committed to cultural, intellectual and moral development, standing firmly for justice and character and against racism, alcohol and drug abuse, sexism and hazing. The old formula works and it works better. All we need are a few good men who have the courage to be different. Vive la difference! Fraternally,

Hazing still lurks in minds of lazy men; will you wait until someone else dies? Imagine if you will working for a corporation that announced the following rules for new employees, after they were hired: "You will do exactly as you are told. There's no room for creativity or individual thinking; unity among you new employees is essential. If one new worker screws up, you'll all be fired, or at least ridiculed by the current employees. "At times, you'll be required to work for days without sleep. We'll create meaningless busy work for you, so you'll learn to obey our every whim. You'll respond immediately to every request for a personal favor or errand. "You must endure horrendous peer pressure to drink, tests of physical stamina, psychological abuse and relentless questioning over meaningless trivia. When we feel like it, we'll line you up against a wall, shine bright lights in your eyes, and scream questions for which there is no right answer.
A DU Perspective by Thomas D. Hansen "We'll lie about your fellow new workers to see how you react. And . after a few months, if we decide we don't like you, we'll dump you without any fair warning or clear efforts to help you improve. "Oh, by the way. You're here to grow and succeed, and you better not fall short of our expectations or your abilities, or you must be some kind of a wimp." Would you stay there? Would anyone in their right mind put up with such abuse? Any corporation using such negative reinforcement tactics would lose em ployees in droves, and would end up with only spineless drones who spouted the party line, and believed with all their heart they were treating the next batch of new employees as well as they possibly could.
56
Now, make that corporation a fraternity, and you begin to wonder how anyone could ever think that hazing was a good idea. Pledge Education: a different purpose This kind of "pledge education" stems from the lack of clear thinking about a fraternity's purpose, and a misconception that it is like either an athletic team or a branch of the military. Sure, discipline and order is necessary when a football team is going through two-a-day fall drills. Complicated plays are being taught, requiring split-second timing and reliance on the actions of others. And the pace must be intense, to physically condition the players. Sure, boot camp is a good idea, when you're building a fighting military unit. The success of a mission, and the lives of soldiers, are at stake. So every thought of questioning an order must be wrung out of the men's minds; they must be stripped of their will to succeed as individuals, and they must be ready to understand and perform any order without hesitation. But shift back to a DU chapter and its new pledges. Is there any game to be won? No, the game is to help men excel in college so they can reach their goals in life. Similarly, is there any battle to be fought? Only in their own minds, against laziness and complacency. Otherwise, pledges and members alike want to take their current skills - imagination, creativity, independent drive and determination, compassion, and genuine friendly feelings towards others - and build on them, ever upward. No need to tear down to a basic level, then build up again; DU can and must build good men into great men, starting with the strengths they have, and curing them of their weaknesses. Non-hazing is not easy A fraternity without hazing is not an easy thing to achieve; but then
neither does anything worth having come without effort. It is not for the lazy man who would mistakenly copy boot camp or coaching techniques irito an arena where they just don't apply. And there are other reasons why hazing just doesn't work. You're left with weaklings. Hazing drives away the sharpest men, those with the backbone to stand up to the abusers; they leave the chapter with only feelings of pity for the hazers. Hazing creates disinterest. Those who can't bring themselves to leave merely drift away instead; they're not involved in any activities the hazers want to do. Losers love to haze. The men who have the worst grades and who make the most noise in the chapter - in short, the worst role models in the chapter - always seem to be the ones who get a sadistic gleam in their eye when there's a chance to haze. They relish heaping abuse on others. Maybe it's a power trip; maybe they feel in control of men they know are smarter or more socially adept. .

drugs or abuse alcohol, they're not interested in men who think they can motivate or teach through negative, abusive tactics. Hazing maims. Fortunately, it's not as common in DU as in some fraternities, but the record shows many instances where men have been injured through "harmless" activities. Hazing kills. The toll grows each year - deaths during 'forced exercise, ordeals of heat and cold, choking on food stuffed down throats, alcohol poisoning, and flight from the "brothers" who haze them. It's against DU policy. With our Fraternity standing for Character, Culture, Justice and Friendship for over 153 years, is there any room for hazing? To summarize: Hazing is an archaic, dangerous, illegal, outmoded form of "education," one which mistakenly borrows ideas from other organizations with nothing in common with a fraternitychapter, except that they bring in new members and tty to teach them what the organization is all about. Anything that hazing might hope to teach can be taught in a much more positive, caring manner, if every chapter and every member of Delta Upsilon will just think hard about our purposes, and how we might best accomplish them. Yet hazing persists in the fraternity world. And not just any fraternity can get rid of it. But then again, DU is not just any fraternity. Or is it?
Chapter: Write or call DU Headquarters for hel p in creating better programs. The Fraternity will help chapters trying to change. If your chapter hazes, and tries to hide it, the Fraternity and your alumni must - and will - end it by expelling mem-
bers and reorganizing or closing the chapter. Alumni: Work to end this liability exposure. Support chapter efforts to end hazing; help confront those alumni who resist change. Don't bring back outdated hazing philosophies. 57
3 new chapters join DU brotherhood Delta Upsilon grew to 90 active chapters with the installation of three new chapters this winter. Two were 'r/,ew on the Chapter Roll, while the third was a revival of a dormant chapter. Here are accounts of each installation:
January 9, 1988, brought breezy, 60-degree temperatures to DU's first installation ceremony of 1988: the new Santa Barbara Chapter. It was an exciting conclusion, as Santa Barbara was installed in less time and with more men than any chapter in at least 25 years. Before 275 guests, 59 installation candidates took the stage at the Red Lion Inn for Rite II. The candidates had taken Rite I of Installation the night before with Executive Director Tom Hansen. President Terry L. Bullock, in his installation address, explained that DU was never meant to be just another college fraternity. Our founders at Williams College wanted something more for themselves and the men to follow: an organization that would develop the men as individuals and add to their college experience. On the installation team were Dennis Powers, Colorado '64, an
The DU Growth Story
Brother Jeff Imrie '89 accepted the new chapter's charter as chapter president, and Brother Doug Makishima '89, founding president of the original colony, explained how the colony grew from dissatisfaction with the limited activities of fraternities on campus, and how DU has become a new leader within the fraternity system.

instrumental alumnus in the colony's preparation and a Santa Barbara attorney, and Mark Marshall, Kansas State '77, a vice president of First Interstate Bank in Los Angeles. At the banquet for 230 initiates · and guests, Barbara Uehling, Chancellor of the University of California, Santa Barbara, welcomed the new chapter on behalf of the University. MaryBeth Callahan Lepkowski and Pat N aessens praised DU's efforts to involve UCSB fraternities in campus activities and for mature, responsible approaches to alcohol and social events.
DU's next installation marked a successful period of growth for a group of men who split away from a local fraternity because they would not tolerate hazing. On the campus of Culver-Stockton College in Canton, Missouri, 23 undergraduates and four alumni and fathers became charter members of the Culver-Stockton Chapter on January 23, 1988. The weather was much colder than at Santa Barbara but nothing deterred parents, friends and DUs from other chapters from attending the ceremonies.

Chapter, James K. Walsh, joined Noel Freesh, Tennessee '70, and Executive Director Tom Hansen as the installation team. Rite I had been concluded Friday evening and Rite II began at noon at the United Merhodist Church in Canton. Back on campus, a reception honored parents and friends, and then the DU flag was raised next to the administration building, as 153 gold and blue balloons sailed off over the Mississippi River bluffs. At dinner that evening in Hannibal, Larry G. Webb, Jr. , chapter president, accepted the charter. Brother Sherer presented awards to outstanding seniors Brack Collier and Christopher Rossi, and to outstanding pledge Clay Mosley.

The final installation of the 1988 winter brought the Oregon Chapter back into active status within Delta Upsilon, with 44 undergraduates and 12 faculty and fathers installed on February 13. . From a group of a dozen men unhappy with present University of Oregon fraternities in spring 1986, the DU colony grew steadily and purposefully. Founding colony president Bret Jordan explained to 230 guests at the instal-

lation banquet that DU wanted none of the alcohol-centered parties, abusive treatment of women and pledges, and ill-kept chapter houses some other fraternities had. The new colony was guided by a dedicated group of alumni, who had carefully invested the proceeds of the sale of the previous chapter house when the chapter folded in 1971. Among them was Paul E. Price '30, a member of Sigma Pi Tau and a charter member of the Oregon Chapter in 1934. Rite I was conducted Friday evening by Brother Price, and by Karl
Wester '39. Rite II, at the Red Lion Inn in Springfield, Ore., was attended by 150 guests Saturday afternoon. Strong diversity in membership has marked the DUs, and they have been extremely popular among UO sorority members because of their gentlemanly behavior. The new chapter also excels in academics, having moved to first place among fraternities on campus in GPA. The new chapter house - actually two houses connected by a breezeway - is well maintained and features an excellent study area.

New Alumni Directory means long list of deceased alumni This issue of the Quarterly contains almost four pages of reported alumni deaths. This is the result of the return of questionnaires for the recently published DU Alumni Directory. . Under most chapter listings below, you will see a list of names beginning with the word "Directory." These men were reported as deceased, after research for the directory by the Harris Publishing Company of New York. Of course, if there are any errors, please let us know immediately. As y'ou can guess from their Reports of births, deaths and marriages received at Fraternity Headquarters though February 17, 1988:
Marriages Arkansas '82 - Thomas D. Deen and Violet M., Stone in McGehee, Arkansas on November 21, 1987. . Florfda ' 82 - William J. Kluge and Kathryn McFarren in Simi Valley, California on January 9, 1988.
Births Bradley '80 - Mr .and Mrs. Gary D. Owen of Spring Hill, Florida, a son, Gary Duncan II, on November 27, 1987. Colgate '74 - Mr. and Mrs. Robert L. Tyburski of Hamilton, New York, a son, David Michael on January 5, 1988. DcPauw'81-Mr. and Mrs. DavidC. Petree of Ellicott City, Maryland, a son, Christopher John on May 22,1987. Illinois '78 - Dr. and Mrs. John A. Buist of Aurora, Colorado, a son, John Steven, on August 4,1987. Indiana '83 - Mr. and Mrs. C. Douglas Zook of Altamonte Springs, Florida, a son, Oay Douglas on January 17, 1988. Iowa State '75 - Dr. and Mrs. Steven J. Maier of London, England, a daughter, Katy Sarah on April 1, 1987.

Ohio '84 - Mr. and Mrs. David Vaughn of Logan, Ohio, a son, Tyler Joe, on February 5,1988.
graduation years, many of these DU alumni have been deceased for some time. News of most alumni deaths reaches Fraternity Headquarters quickly, from friends or family members. In other cases, though, a notice is sent only to the chapter or the college or university. Then, the Fraternity continues to send the Quarterly and other mailings to an alumnus who has passed away, which can be disturbing to relatives. So, you can help DU by letting us know when one of our members passes away. It reduces unwanted mail to his next of kin, and saves the Fraternity mailing expenses. Oregon State '65 - Mr. and Mrs. James N .路 Graham of Newport Beach, California, a son, Andrew Troy on December 14, 1987. Toronto '76 - Dr. and Mrs. G. Paul Stephan of Thornhill, Ontario, a son, Frederick "Ricky" Joseph on December 13, 1987.

Harvey Kuenn, noted baseball star Harvey E. Kuenn,Jr., Wisconsin '54, a standout player and manager in the American League for more than 30 years, died of a heart attack February 28 at his home in Peoria, Ariz., at the age of 57. He made All-American in baseball as a shortstop for the Wisconsin Badgers, batting .444 in 1952. He signed with the Detroit Tigers, and was called up late in the '52 season after hitting .340 in the minors . . Brother Kuenn began his major league career in 1953, hitting .308 and a rookie record 167 singles for the Detroit Tigers, and earning Rookie of the Year honors. In 1959, his mastery of pitchers gave him a .353 average and the AL batting championship. His career lasted 15 seasons, as he played in both leagues, for Cleveland, San Francisco (including the '62 Series), the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia. His career average was .303, and he had 2,092 hits, mostly singles, mostly line
drives; he hit only 87 home runs. He played in seven All-Star games. In the 1970s, he battled a series of medical problems. He had quadruple bypass surgery in 1976, and extensive stomach surgery shortly thereafter. In 1980, while working with the Milwaukee Brewers, his right leg was amputated after blood clot problems, but he was coaching again within six months. However, in June 1982, Kuenn was named manager after the team started 2324. Under Kuenn's guidance, the Brewers went 72-45 and won the AL East title on the last day of the season. Brother Kuenn was named AL Manager of the Year. The Brewers made history by rallying from a two-game deficit to win the pennant over the California Angels. But the Brewers lost a seven-game World Series to the St. Louis Car~ dinals. Brother Kuenn was named DU Alumnus of the Year by the Milwaukee Alumni Club in 1982.

Delta Upsilon Quarterly Coming in July's issue . .. The July issue of the Quarterly brings the semi-annual report on each undergraduate chapter and its accomplishments and activities. Be sure to check for news about fall alumni events, and how your fellow DUs are doing on campus.
•
Our Record, the member manual for Delta Upsilon since 1920, is being thoroughly revised this spring and summer. You'll get a complete outline on what's in the new Our Record, and what DU hopes it will accomplish for undergrads and the DU alumni who advise them.
•
Who isn't familiar with Cheers, the long-running sitcom about a neighborhood Boston bar and its unique regulars? Oh, you know all about it, hmmm? Then you know that the owner of the Bull and Finch, the real Boston pub that serves as the model for Cheers, is a DU from Swarthmore, don't you? And you know about all the public
relations awards he's earned for the marketing genius displayed since the show went on the air? And that his restaurant upstairs, the Hampshire House, wins awards for Best Burger, etc.? So you won't need to read all about Tom Kershaw's pride and joy on Beacon Hill, in the July Quarterly, will you?
•
The July issue, though it arrives in mid-summer, heralds the start of the new DU fiscal year. This means it will be time to review DUs plans for the coming year, and how alumni support plays a big role, through all those contributions to the Fraternity that power our educational programs for young DUs.
•
The new big DU summer meeting will be just days away when the July Quarterly arrives. Without giving away too many surprises, we'll list some of the award-winning chapters for scholarship, rush results and individual achievements in the July issue.
