Insiders' News Late news to inform and help collegiate and alumni DUs Alumni Trusteeship for Lafayette Chapt er In late spring, alumni trustees of the Lafayette Chapter met with College officials to agree to a fouryear hiatus in the chapter's existence. This action , which ultimately preserves the opportunity for Delta Upsilon to be active at Lafayette, followed several years of undergraduate discipline problems. According to Bill Messi ck, Lafayette '68, "T rustees of Lafayette College appreciated the actions of Lafayette DU alumni, who agreed fully with College officials that the undergraduate's behavior must not continue. "The College Trustees commended DU alumni for acting quickly, in the interests of both the College and the future of DU," he said. As explained in a letter to Lafayette DU alumni, the chapter house was purchased by the College. A revival of the Lafayette Chapter can begin in four years, and the College has agreed to provide housing for the revived chapter, Messick said. Undergraduate behavior problems over the past several years were related primarily to abuse of alcohol, although illegal drug use con tr ibu ted to the problems this spring. The Lafayette Chapter was established in 1885, and will be revived beginning in the 1992-93 academic yea r through a cooperative effort of DU alumni, Lafayette College and the Fraternity.

Nin e DU colonies active this fall DU has always expanded carefully, but as a Fraternity, we've realized the value for constant, steady growth. Here's an overview of the nine colonies that are on the path to becoming DU chapters. Two revivals are underway. Western Michigan is looking toward a spring installation date. Kent Stat e has a strong alumni chapter formed to guide an interest group of undergraduates which will have colony status this fall. Two long-standing colonies have aims at becoming chapters this year. Emporia Stat e almost folded a year ago but has made strong efforts, more than tripling membership. Texas A&M was reorganized as a colony last fall and has rushed well but has some financial administrative work to do . Canada is a fertile ground for new colonies. Gu elph has moved most quickly, with an October installation planned. Trent and Calgary were established last spring and enter their first full year of operation this fall. A solid interest group at lona College awaits formal recognition on campus to become a colony this fall. And a strong group at Northern Colorado already leads in campus fraternity CPA and is the third largest men's group on campus, and has obtained excellent University-owned housing for the fall.
The April 25 ttut: cover with kI ichael Eis- .' ner, Denison '64
TliVIE [eatures Eisner, Disney Michael Eisner's fame has been well established through his tremendous management of the Walt Disne y Company as its chief executive officer and chairman (see July 1987 issue of the Quarted)l). Now it's been extended further with a cover story in TIME Magazine. The cover of the April 25 issue of TIME also enabled Brother Eisner, Denison '64, to join 19 other DUs who have been featured on 34 TIME covers. (Several have been featured twice. Charles Evans Hughes was a TIME cover subject three times, and James Bryant Conant, four times.) Brother Eisner is the first DU so honored since Brother Peter Ueberroth, San Jose '59, who was the subject of a TIME feature in October 1983 as he headed planning for the 1984 Summer Olympics, then was named "Man of the Year" for 1984 for his achievements.

What you see on television often has no connection with reality. Yet even in the most fictional world, there is a link with real life. The friendly, warm and slightly wacky bar in "Cheers," the hit NBC comedy, falls in the latter category, and a DU stands proudly in the "real" part of the show. Tom Kershaw, a Swarthmore DO who has put his leadership training to work, owns the Bull and Finch in Boston, and it's the inspiration for what you see on the television version of "Cheers." Turn the page for the story on Brother Kershaw.
Tom Kershaw's Boston pub inspires a hit TV series Not everyone whose pride and joy inspires a television show can also make money. If you love your work and make money, that's great. If your work is also your pride and joy, and it ends up being the inspiration for a successful television show, that's exceptional. And if you can also make money from that bit of fame, then you're in Tom Kershaw's league. This one-time mechanical engineering student has built a "people business," one which has made the most of the leadership skills he discovered as a boy and sharpened as a member of the Swarthmore Chapter of Delta Upsilon. Now, besides owning the bar that inspired the creators of "Cheers," Kershaw has assumed top roles with fellow restaurateurs and Boston area promotions that have further broadened his reputation in the state. Kershaw owns the Bull and Finch Pub, and the Hampshire House Restaurant at 84 Beacon Street in Boston. He traces his successes to what he learned as president of the Swarthmore Chapter before his graduation in 1960. Climbing the leadership ladder "In my life, I've always thought of myself as more of a leader than a manager. I was an Eagle Scout and Senior Patrol Leader of my Troop, and then in high school I became class president and then President of the Student Council. "When I got to Swarthmore, I was so busy with those mechanical engineering courses and athletics that all I had time for in extra-curricular work was the Fraternity," said Kershaw, who played lacrosse for Swarthmore. "Fortunately, it worked out well." It started with his designing and building the winning homecoming decorations, for which he was named out~tandingpledge. He was social chairman as a sophomore and planned the chapter's spring for66
mal as a junior. Then he was elected president, and promptly created an award-winning innovation. "We had a small problem with seniors not being involved in, or even interested in, the same things that the sophomores wanted to do. Yet there was a real need for the kind of seasoning that seniors can bring to the younger men. "So we ran the chapter with a Senior Committee instead of an executive council. Every senior was assigned to something - one to the housing and grounds committee, one to pledge chairman, etc. With the pledges, it brought a dimension to pledge education that had some seniority to it. I remember the captain of the football team was the pledge educator and he did a great job," Kershaw recalled.
Chapter president Kershaw, 1960 "This approach was real helpful in recruiting new men, and we had better activities, too. As a chapter we were far more sensitive to the needs and interests of our seniors than we ever had been before." This successful program brought Brother Kershaw a feature article in the July 1960 QuaTterly. Building the Cheers formula Kershaw didn't stay with mechanical engineering long. After Swarthmore, he went to Harvard Business School, and then into high-tech market development which he said bored him. It wasn't long before he found he was cut out for a "people business" like restaurant work. The Bull and Finch opened in
1969, seating 84 people. From the start it was a neighborhood spot, drawing a lunch and after work crowd, then a good bunch of regulars midway through the evening. In 1973 Kershaw opened Cheers in the back room. Together they made up what one writer described as "the aura of a college bar made good." The challenge was to fill in the spots between the good business hours. Until the TV show came along, it was tough, Kershaw said. Then came fame, and with it, tourists. But Kershaw stayed loyal to the regulars. He and his employees met often with them in the three months before the TV "Cheers" premiered in September 1982 . "We wanted to protect the people who brought us to the point where we were a successful place," he said. With tourism came the retail side of marketing: "Cheers" gifts and souvenirs. Kershaw runs a gift shop out of what he's come to call "Mecca" because it draws so many "Cheers" fans on a pilgrimage. He also sells "Cheers" paraphernalia through a gift catalog. A visit to "Mecca" The Bull and Finch brings to mind immediately an authentic English pub, cozy and solid, aging gracefully. In part, that's because it was built in England. The pub was custom designed by a Montreal expert, Paul Hughes, then built in the Kerridge Joinery in England. Kershaw recalls speedy delivery of the disassembled furnishings, which were then put back together in their original arrangement beneath the Hampshire House. His menu remains basically immutable, featuring solid pub fare like burgers, fish and chips, Mexican items, omelets, snacks and sandwiches. Six beers are on tap and Kershaw has added a local bottled beer, Samuel Adams, and a wine cooler by customer request. The interests of regulars extend

beyond a meal and a cold drink. Kershaw's "people business" has involved itself heavily in charity, and its $22,000 contribution to a recent Santa Fund campaign by the Boston Globe was the largest single gift. He's also been keenly interested in alcohol awareness and responsible drinking programs. He piloted employee training programs that ensure that customers don't overdrink and always get home safely. He has also started a wine program, centered on Hampshire House, that may also broaden understanding of wines among Bull and Finch regulars. On to new leadership roles Kershaw has won honors. In 1984, he was named Massachusetts Restaurateur of the Year by the Massachusetts Restaurant Association (MRA). He was also recently a finalist for the Entrepreneur of the Year award for the New England area in Venture Magazine. He has also carried his weight in many organizations. He has been vice president of the MRA for five years, and is now in his second year on the board of directors of the National Restaurant Association. He also is vice chairman of the national political action committee for the restaurateurs' group. Brother Kershaw's political work has also carried over to the Republican Party. He is a member of the
The familiar exterior of 84 Beacon Street state committee and will be a delegate to the Republican National Convention in New Orleans in August. But perhaps his most challenging role is Chairman of the Board of the Greater Boston Convention and Visitor's Bureau. "We have created a state-wide tourism coalition of our 13 regional tourist councils, and restaurant and hotel owners, all willing to work together," he said. The goal is to have influence when it comes to funding tourism promotion in the region, plus a stronger financial planning program to let the Convention and Visitors Bureau stay strong in the future, Kershaw said. A boost from DU Kershaw is sold on the benefits DU can bring a young man. "The wonderful thing about fraternities is that if you utilize the opportunities and exert yourself, and put in the time, you are given many leadership opportunities. It's a wonderful way to develop those skills. "Sure, it looks good on your resume, too. But more important are the skills you gain, that help you work with fellow employees and other people."

Kershaw has taken time to work with other alumni of his Swarthmore Chapter when the need has arisen. One occasion was a few years ago when the chapter had an open pledging policy, but wasn't screening out some potential troublemakers. As a result, the chapter was in some hot water with the College. "They'd just misjudged a little. Sure, we should be open to every quality man, regardless of race, creed, color or background. But that doesn't mean you have to take in someone who's going to hurt your chapter's reputation. "They had one guy who'd done five or six stupid things. The chapter should have put him on probation, and gone on record with the whole college community about it so they'd know DU was working hard to keep its standards at Swarthmore." Kershaw said some men from his chapter have visited him, "but not as many as I thought there would be." And he shared a good laugh when told that the Quarterly article would add even more visitors. But Tom Kershaw is the kind of man who's always done well, because his friends and customers know that his welcome is sincere, and he genuinely enjoys people and the "people business."

Sept. 10 banquet in Schenectady
Union Chapter to celebrate 150 years Delta Upsilon's oldest active chapter is planning a grand celebration of its 150th Anniversary on September 10. The sesquicentennial event, featuring a dinner at the Hale House on campus and a keynote address by William Wallace III, Union '47, will also mark the rejuvenation of the undergraduate Union Chapter and the initiation of 21 new DUs. Under the direction of the Trustees of the Union DU Corporation, the day begins with the season-opening football game with Franklin and Marshall. A reception for all DUs attending will begin at 5 p.m., and dinner at 6 p.m. (See accompanying article for background on Brother Wallace.) If plans proceed as expected, the ownership of a new chapter house at 740 Union Street will be announced. This property was featured in a recent issue of the Quarterly, and efforts to purchase and renovate it have been underway. The undergraduate chapter, which has consisted of 15 to 20 men during the last two years, will be greatly expanded with the initiation of 25 new men. This marks the successful rejuvenation of a chapter which lost its college designated housing after some behavior and discipline problems in the fall of 1986. Fine tradition of Union loyalty
The Union Chapter, true to its heritage within Delta Upsilon, was strong enough to survive the setback. Under the supervision of local alumni, most notably John Zelinsky, Union '65, and Doug Calvey, Union '82, 20 men were retained under an alumni trusteeship while new housing was sought. While the undergraduates rid themselves of attitudes which had led to the problems in 1986, the alumni of the Union Chapter rolled up their sleeves and dove into the challenge of finding new housing. A prime location was found and final arrangements were underway in early summer. 68
Men of the Union Chapter gather at chapter house they plan to occupy this fall.
Brother Ralph Fisher, Union '31, has been instrumental in both the fund-raising efforts to obtain and furnish the new chapter house, and in arrangements for the 150th anniversary celebration. With 41 undergraduates and another 60 parents and friends expected, the celebration dinner should feature at least 200 guests, Brother Fisher said. Invitations have been extended to nearby chapters to send delegations. The Fraternity will have its new President or its new Chairman of the Board of Directors on hand to commemorate this milestone in DU history. And all DU alumni in New England are welcome to attend, if they will contact the chapter ahead of time, according to Brother Fisher. Any DU alumnus or undergraduate member interested in attending should write to Brother Fisher at this address: 21 Wendt Avenue, Larchmont, NY 10538. A check for $17 per person can be enclosed, which will cover the costs of the reception and dinner.
Some Union history Union was established in "the winter of 1838" as DU's second chapter, following by four years the Williams Chapter at nearby Williams College in 1834. In 1845 the Williams and Union chapters discussed an alliance, which led to the Troy Conventions of 1847, at which time the AntiSecret Confederation was forged with these two chapters and Amherst, Hamilton, Western Reserve, Middlebury and Vermont. DU emerged as a powerful force against the now-extinct abuses of student power wielded by some of the early secret societies. And the Union Chapter played a critical role in its success. The Union Chapter, or the Equitable Union as it was known, was extremely effective in protesting these abuses, which had resulted in the election of less than qualified men to campus positions and offices. In fact, it may have been too (continued on page 69)

Wallace to keynote Union banquet The ranks of outstanding DUs from the Union Chapter are many. From them, the chapter has chosen Brother William Wallace III, Union '47, to be the keynote speaker for Union's 150th Anniversary Celebration on September 10. From his days studying electrical engineering at Union, Bill Wallace built a remarkable career in design, engineering and construction of electrical generating plants during the past 40 years. As an undergraduate, he was employed by General Electric Co., doing product-oriented testing in the Works Laboratory. He then joined Ebasco Services Inc., in New York, focusing first on gas generating plants. He quickly shifted to electric路 plants, and between 1948 and 1960 he helped design a dozen central station generating units. In 1961 and 1962, he directed a team of engineers in the first attempt to automate a coal-fired power plant, the H. F. Lee Unit 3 for Carolina Power and Light Co. In the next five years, he coordinated electrical and control design engineers on both fossil-fueled and nuclear steam electric plants in the United States and abroad. He became Chief Electrical Engineer in 1968. By 1970 he was manager of Projects, in a new department overseeing project managers working on 1 plants in four nations. Three years later he became Vice President of Ebasco, and opened a branch office in Atlanta. It first conducted nuclear power activi-
掳
ties, then broadened into design of coal-fired and other projects, including nuclear retrofit services. Ebasco was acquired by Enserch Corporation in 1976, and Brother Wallace became Executive Vice President for Projects in New York. In 1978, he was named Chief Operating Officer for all engineering, construction, consulting, projects and related services. He concluded his career at the top at Ebasco: President and CEO in 1980, and Chairman and CEO in 1982, the positions he held at his retirement two years ago. Since then, he has established a private consulting service in the electric power generating industry. He has been Chairman of the Board of Advisors to the School of Engineering at North Carolina State University, and is a member of the Trustee's Board of Advisors to Union College. His board memberships include the Atomic Industrial Forum and the American Nuclear Energy Council; the World Rehabilitation Fund, the New York Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the New York Partnership. He has also been a Deacon in the Presbyterian Church, both at the Fifth Avenue Church in New York and the Westside Church in Ridgewood, N.J. He was married to Dorothy Reimann, who passed away a few years ago. Their son, Andrew William, is now 12. For Delta Upsilon, Brother Wallace was a Trustee of the Union

He was also an inaugural member of those DU alumni who have won the DU Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award.
(continued from page 68) effective, as the need for an antisecret group diminished and the membership of the Equitable Union did too. But the Union Chapter survived this early decrease. The only period of inactivity Union then experienced came d uring the Civil War, in 1863. But the Union Chapter was revived by a Hamilton alumnus in 1869 and has continuously operated ever since. It is interesting to note that the Union Chapter of Delta Upsilon is older than all but six of the existing 62 member fraternities of the N ational Interfraternity Council. Also, Union is the oldest active DU chapter. Williams, of course, is the only older chapter, but became inactive when Williams College banned fraternities in the late 1960s. The Hamilton Chapter, founded in 1847, is DU's oldest chapter in terms of continuous existence. Perhaps the vigor and enthusiasm which the Union Sesquicentennial Celebration will create will be contagious, and Union can be the inspiration to the eventual revival of our oldest chapter at Williams College. 69
Celtics put Jim Rodgers at helm ofNBA squad Delta Upsilon has another coach to add to the roster. This time, it's in one of the most tradition-filled and challenging coaching jobs in North America. Jim Rodgers, Iowa '65, has been named to succeed K. C. Jones as head coach of the Boston Celtics, after eight years in the organization. Rodgers has been Director of Player Personnel for four years and an Assistant Coach for eight. During the first seven years, the Celtics reached the National Basketball Association finals five times, and claimed three championships. Brother Rodgers was a three-year starter for the Iowa Hawkeyes, then spent two years as an assistant to Bill Fitch at the University of North Dakota. Fitch left in 1967, and Rodgers compiled a three-year record of 39-33 as his successor.
From there, Rodgers went to Arkansas as an assistant, then teamed up again with Fitch as assistant coach and chief scout for the new Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA. He spent eight years there as head scout, bench coach and college scout. He was then player personnel director before joining Fitch once again in Boston in 1979. For the Celtics, Rodgers has focused on scouting and game preparation, and coaching from the bench during games. He has had primary responsibility for new talent assessment during annual collegiate drafts. DU runs in Brother Rodgers' family, as his son Tim is a DU at Tufts. Tim will graduate next spring. Brother Rodgers and his wife, Donna, also have another son, Matthew, who has finished his first year at the University of Iowa.

Student loan program named after Sen. Stafford A second Middlebury DU Senator has had his name tied directly to support of higher education in the United States. In honor of his many years of efforts in the U.S. Senate on behalf of student aid to education, the nation's program of guaranteed college student loans has been named in honor of Senator Robert T. Stafford, R-Vt. Formerly known as Guaranteed Student Loans, or GSLs, this important form of financial aid to U.S. college students will now be called Stafford Student Loans. These loans assist college students who meet income and academic requirements. President Reagan signed the authorizing legislation April 28. Brother Stafford, Middlebury '35, was appointed to the United States Senate in 1971, and elected
to complete an unfilled term in January 1972. Vermont voters returned him to the Senate in 1976 and 1982, and he is retiring this year after completing almost three full six-year terms. Brother Stafford's honor follows by more than a century the Morrill Act, named after its sponsor, Sen. Justin Smith Morrill, an 1860 graduate of Dartmouth University who was made an honorary member of the Middlebury Chapter on March 10,1864. Brother Morrill, also representing Vermont in the Senate, sponsored the bill which established land grant colleges in the various states. On many land grant campuses, there is a Morrill Hall commemorating the far-sightedness of Brother Morrill, who served in the U.S. Senate for 31 years until his death in 1898. Brother Stafford is one of three

DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路 July,
1988
Bullock serves 5 terms as President
A farewell, and our continuing challenge Dear Brothers: Bittersweet! There is something bittersweet about farewell addresses. Memories of great friendships made, good times had, and the sweet smell of a modest number of successes make recollections of my 20 years of service to the International Fraternity sweet indeed. Saying goodbye to the thousands of alumni who have supported our efforts to build an even greater Delta Upsilon and to the thousands of undergraduates who labored so valiantly in the vineyards of our chapters is more difficult. As my term of office draws to a close, and I write this last letter to you, I wish first to express my profound appreciation to all of you who have so steadfastly supported
The President's Report our endeavors to improve the fraternity. To those of you who have given time, I can only say there is nothing so precious as the gift of time and I am very grateful for it. To those of you who have given money, I can say that it has been your money that has enabled us to make the improvements that have been made and, again, I am very grateful. Some of you, of' course, have been able to give both time and money and to you my gratitude is without bounds. In the past 20 years Delta U psilon has enjoyed much good fortune and has recorded perhaps more than its share of accomplishments. I need not dwell on these matters because they have been reported as they occurred and you are all aware of them. Instead, I would like to take this final opportunity to sound a note of caution on several matters toward which I believe our attentions should be directed in the near term. First, I hope we will never forget that Delta Upsilon has only one fundamental and overriding purpose: to help develop the finest DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路 July,
leaders our two nations can require. Thus, to build, strengthen and encourage the creative and productive maturation of the young men in our undergraduate chapters is the heart and soul of Delta Upsilon. This is the fundamental cause toward which all our purposes and ambitions must aim. Second, there are five continually alarming phenomena observable in some of our chapters, as well as in chapters of other fraternities, which have the potential of subverting and derailing all of our noble purposes. They must be dealt with straightforwardly, honestly and courageously by alumni and undergraduates alike if Delta Upsilon is to continue its record of great achievement. They are: ALCOHOL ABUSE; ILLEGAL DRUGS; RACISM; SEXISM; and HAZING. Your officers and directors are working to set a high moral tone for the development of our undergraduates, but an even greater effort will be required in the immediate future if we are to eradicate once and for all these curses which are anathematic to the fundamental purposes of our fraternity: The The The and The
advancement of justice; diffusion of liberal culture; development of character; promotion of friendship.
This effort will require the deep commitment of the officers of the international fraternity, the alumni chapters, and the undergraduate chapters alike. My challenge to you as I leave office is to meet these villains and overcome them. If you fail, the fraternity will fail. Make no mistake about it. Third, in order to accomplish the great goals of Delta Upsilon, our alumni must become committed in a way they have not been in the past
1988
to the upbuilding of the fraternity experience. This will require the devotion of considerable time and money by all of us in making our alumni chapters work and in building the endowment of the fraternity. If you have not done so in the past, please make this the year that you write that first check and make it a habit for the rest of your life. Make this the year as well that you amend your will to make the fraternity's educational foundation a substantial beneficiary of your estate. Give to future generations the same magnificent opportunity to learn and grow which we have all enjoyed and from which we have so greatly profited in our own lives. Nothing will so greatly insure the future of our fraternity as the sound financial base which a really substantial endowment provides. Finally, make this the year that you decide to step forward and become an adviser to a local chapter, a member of its house corporation board, or become involved in the committees, task forces, and board work of the International Fraternity. The young men of today who populate our wonderful undergraduate chapters need you so very much. The rewards will be substantial for generations to come, both to you and to them. The past 20 years which I have spent working with our undergraduates and alumni have been among the most satisfying and rewarding times of my life. I am very appreciative to all of you for having given me this opportunity to serve. I commend it highly to you all. With deep appreciation for your interest and support and with warmest fraternal regards, I conclude my service to the fraternity with a simple Hail and Farewell,

UGAC calls on DU Convention to adopt
higher standards for chapter quality Throughout the fraternity world this year, there is a great introspective mood. Public attention focused on some recent tragedies and abusive behavior by some fraternity members, causing the thousands of men and women who serve as fraternity volunteers to take a hard look at what role our Greek organizations play in the lives of our young college members. Delta Upsilon is no exception to this trend. The changes of the past two years are reflected in many projects: the new member manual, better advising of chapters and intervention where they fail to address problems, new emphasis on alumni through the Alumni Chapter program and an expanded Alumni Institute, the Seven Stars System of chapter self-evaluation, and the new DU Alumni Directory, to name just a few. All these efforts are a reflection of the values of Delta Upsilon. Of course, we want our chapters and everything about DU to uphold our four Founding Principles: The Promotion of Friendship, the Development of Character, the Diffusion of Liberal Culture and the Advancement of Justice. But there is a need to state our Principles and our values in some concrete ways, addressing issues which have the power to change young lives, drastically in many instances. Thus, the Undergraduate Activities Committee took a hard look at some of the operating policies of Delta Upsilon. These statements of position guide chapter officers and alumni advisors alike in setting chapter activities on the proper course. They also provide clear evidence to parents, faculty and administration, and everyone else exactly what the Fraternity's position is on these critical issues. What follows is the UGAC's recommendations to either the U ndergraduate Advisory Board or the Undergraduate Convention on the policies of the Fraternity. Their
76
recommendations serve as a central point for discussions on the mission of DU, and the values we hope to convey to our new pledges and members. GPA: Top all-men's average Delta Upsilon has not had an active scholarship policy recently. Earlier guidelines had fallen by the wayside as fewer campuses kept accurate rankings of chapter grade point averages. However, two thirds of our chapters and colonies do have access to such rankings, and the results show that of 64 U.S. colleges and universities which rank chapters, DU is above the all-fraternity average on 38 campuses, or about 60 percent. However, only 27 chapters are above the all-men's average, which appears to be the target our chapters should aim for. The committee agreed that DU should be the Fraternity that stands for scholarship, and that on average, we should be above the average ranking for all men on campus. Therefore, the committee recommended this policy: DU chapters must rank above the allmen's average on their campus. After fall 1988, those which do not will be placed on academic probation by the Fraternity. Academic probation means the Fraternity will developspecificstepsfor each chapter to take to improve chapter scholarship. Documentation ofprogress will be required. If a chapter is on academic probation for two full years, the Undergraduate Activities Committee will automatically recommend an Order to Show Cause why the chapter's charter should not be suspended or revoked. Chapters are also required to do the following, to achieve the goal of a chapter GPA above the allmen's average: -Have a 3-to-5-man scholarship committee to coordinate and enforce chapter scholarship programs and policies.
-Have chapter house quiet hours or courtesy hours, at least 12 hours a day from Sunday through Thursday, to create a good academic environment. -Set and enforce a minimum GPA required for initiation. Ideally, it should be in the top third of minimum GPA requirements of fraternities on campus, and must support the chapter's overall GPA goal. -Require all members and pledges to sign grade release forms so chapter averages can be calculated. -Set minimum GP A requirements for members to run for and retain chapter offices. -Set up study skills training programs, including time management, and systems such as required study hours, study tables or study teams to encourage good academic performance. Alcohol: Tighten policy The current DU alcohol and drug policy is basically sound, centering on chapter actions which violate DU policies by serving alcohol to underage or intoxicated persons. The thrust is that chapters must obey all laws of society, including those of campus, community, state or province, and nation, and they cannot choose those laws they wish to violate. On alcohol, though, the committee recommended that the policy be further strengthened by adding: -No chapter shall hold an open party where alcohol is provided. -No chapter funds shall be used to purchase alcohol. The increasingly difficult insurance situation and further seriousness of the liability exposure these actions creates were foremost in the committee's discussions. The ability to function well under this tighter policy has been proven in the past two years by more than a dozen DU chapters with the self-confi-
DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY' July,
1988
dence and maturity to eliminate alcohol purchases and alcohol-centered events. On drugs, the committee recommended adding to the current ban on use or possession of illegal drugs on chapter property or at chapter events, by requiring chapters to suspend or expel pledges or members who violate the policy. End "little sister" groups Some chapters have "little sister" groups, which do not violate any DU policy. However, the Fraternity's practice has been to discourage their formation and to actively advise chapters to phase out these programs. The problems with "little sister" programs far outweigh the purported advantages of better understanding of concerns of women and developing friendships with women on campus. "Little sister" programs have been the source of serious chapter problems, where massive amounts of alcohol are served to lure new "little sisters" through "little sister rush." Some chapters - fortunately not in DU - have actually had rapes during such events. The term "little sisters" and the appearance of a condescending, second-class status makes DU chapters look frivolous and locked into outdated views of the role and position of women in today's society. Some "little sister" groups have also played a dominating role in chapter activities, even to the point of directing which men the chapter should pledge. "Little sister" issues can also be divisive if women in the program date DUs, then break up, causing animosity and hurt feelings, plus negative comments on campus. Finally, "little sisters" jeopardize the Fraternity's status under Title IX of federal education funding laws as a permitted single-sex institution. Their activities, as an approved adjunct to a chapter, also seriously extend the risk of liability, should the women negligently injure anyone through their chaptertolerated activities. Therefore, the committee recommended this policy: All DU chapters shall be required to DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路 July,
As a Fraternity, can we guarantee a quality experience with high standards to new men, like these of the new Trent Colony?
immediately suspend the recruitment and addition of new members to existing "littlesister"programs, and that all such programs be terminated no later than the end of the 1989-90 academic year. The continuance of "little sister" programs would continue to give ammunition to those who view fraternities as bastions of childish, immature and frivolous activity. This viewpoint is best left to focus on other fraternities which have not matured to the point of ending "little sister" programs. On other policies, the Undergraduate Activities Committee recommended the following: -That all chapters participate in at least two service projects each year with emphasis on volunteer work, and that one of the two projects be sponsored by the chapter itself. -That the undergraduate Convention adopt a stronger policy on hazing, defining what disciplinary actions should be taken against members and chapters WhICh tolerate hazing activities. -That Convention adopt a
stronger resolution condemning sexual misconduct, including rape, date rape, sexual abuse, sexually demeaning events or activities, and sexual harassment. The committee asked Fraternity staff to develop more clear definitions of actions which should be condemned. -That legacies - sons and other relatives of DU alumni and undergraduates - be granted every courtesy during rush, but that chapters understand that they are not obligated to pledge a man simply by virtue of his status as a legacy. -That the Undergraduate Advisory Board consider raising the initiation fee from $140 to $150, while reducing the pledge fee from $50 to $40. This would reduce the initial cost of pledging a DU chapter, while retaining the same overall cost of pledging and initiating. -That Fraternity policies be publicized through posters and printed materials so that all pledges and members, and all other concerned parties, can have ready access to them.

Samples of DU's new manual for members Here's an outline of the new look and approach
For the last 68 years, new DUs have received a member manual. Until 1962, it was named simply, "The Manual of Delta Upsilon." Then, 25 years ago, DU added the name "Our Record" after one of our Fraternity's earliest publications. Now, for the first time in a quarter century, DU's pledge and member manual is being thoroughly rewritten. The new manual will have a look and feel unlike anything in the fraternity world. A seven-man committee has been working since mid-winter, defining the book's scope and drafting chapters. Now the writing is finished, and it's time to give the new DU member manual some exposure. A direct, personal style After analyzing Our Record and a dozen other fraternity manuals, the committee members realized that they all took the institutional approach. They focused on the organization itself. The role of the individual was mentioned only tangentially. So the committee vowed to think in terms of advising a new pledge, probably a college freshman, about life in general, then about the specifics of college life and the values and skills he should expect to learn through Delta Upsilon. The committee agreed quickly to write a manual that would speak directly to the man reading it; rather than referring to "a pledge" or "the chapter," it will talk about "you" and "your chapter." Lists and most historical material go in appendices or charts. Review ques-
78
tions and a bibliography will accompany each chapter, and a "teacher's guide" will let pledge educators make the most of the new manual. Finally, the new manual will be full of DUs and their chapters a tale of real men, facing and surmounting obstacles, succeeding in their relations with others, rising to the top on campus and beyond. To give you a flavor ofDU's new manual, here are the manual's chapters, as the committee has outlined them. For each, there's a quick overview of what that part of the book will do for the man, and for his DU chapter.
and that the chapter has a tremendous influence on academic values and attitudes. Pledging and initiating For the man: What pledgeship means in a non-secret Fraternity adamantly opposed to hazing; how his initiation ceremony should be done and what it should mean. For the chapter: Ammunition against hazing through a pledge period filled with personal development, and guidelines for a great initiation ceremony (for alumni, parents and guests, too).
What is a "DD man"?
For the man: What he should expect to get from his college fraternity experience. For the chapter: A concise, powerful view of what each DU chapter should aim to deliver to its members; in short, what's our product?
For the man: Exciting chances to learn and grow after pledgeship, through stimulating member education programs developed by the men themselves. For the chapter: A cure for apathy, since programs are designed after drawing out member interests and needs. Many rush and social ideas, too.
Will you survive college?
Who rushes if you don't?
For the man: To help him overcome college hurdles, it gives sound, practical advice to help him manage time and money, and deal with common fears and mistakes, roommates, majors, studying, women, grades, etc. For the chapter: Building a feeling of camaraderie, a desire to help his fellow DUs make it through college, and a common sense of purpose.
For the man: A chance to make friends and learn good listening and sales techniques, while bringing sharp new men into DU. For the chapter: The critical programs to add new pledges, thus ensuring enough manpower for successful programs and solid financial management.
What's in it for you?
Scholarship comes first For the man: All roads start today, and it takes your best academic effort to keep them open. Concrete steps to develop good study skills in and out of class. For the chapter: Emphasize that a good chapter measures itself on GPA, honors and awards, grad school acceptance letters, top jobs and scholarships won;
A Gentleman's Fraternity For the man: The role of etiquette in working with people, and what social skills he needs to know to make it in the competitive job market.

DU's government
Men and sexuality
For the man: How DU chapters and the Fraternity work; opportunities to lead, manage, organize and perform. For the chapter: Strength through self-government in keeping with DU principles and policies, plus a sense of overall quality via smooth administration and transitions.
For the man: A discussion of the complex social expectations and behavior patterns regarding relations between men and women; specific advice about a man's responsibilities regarding birth control and sexually transmitted diseases. For the chapter: Defusing archaic sexual attitudes and group behavior; ending activities that would reinforce some stereotypes of fraternity men as self-centered abusers of women. Frank discussion of risks to DU chapters from "date rape" and sexual assault, abuse or harassment.
When the going gets tough For the man: Preparation for rough spots that even good chapters sometimes encounter; develop self-confidence to tackle and solve problems. For the chapter: Sensible steps a chapter should take to selfcorrect and get back on track, plus clear examples of what's not acceptable in Delta Upsilon, and why.
DU dollars at work For the man: Forthright explanations of what it takes to run the Fraternity, and where his pledge and initiation fees go. The importance of paying bills on time and good personal financial habits. For the chapter: What is good chapter financial management; group understanding of what resources can help a chapter; how to pull out of serious financial problems, and working with the Alumni Chapter.
The history of Delta U For the man: An understanding
of how his Fraternity started, what those principles mean today and how men learned to succeed through DU. For the chapter: Perspective on where the chapter fits in with more than 150 years ofDU heritage; the chapter's pivotal role in our successful future. Alcohol and drugs For the man: What he needs to know about alcohol as society's most common drug, and how it can ruin his college career, his life and his Fraternity; DUs absolute ban on illegal drug use. For the chapter: Taking steps to make the use of alcohol an optional, personal choice, not an imposed chapter decision; expecting swift action against anyone who wants to bring drugs into a DU chapter house or an event. DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路 July,
After college, then what? For the man: The DU experience only begins in college; what's expected of a DU alumnus in terms of helping his fraternity through financial, volunteer and other support. For the chapter: Defining the roles men will playas alumni, adding depth to the chapter's experience by showing the many facets of DU alumni help to the chapter. Interim manual for '88-'89 Men pledging DU this year will have a unique chance to shape their
own Fraternity's manual. The revised text will be published in a temporary format, without the artwork and photos planned for the new hardbound edition. Pledges and chapter officers will be asked to comment on improvements or additions they'd like to see in the manual. After final revisions and page layout by next February, it's off to the printer for enough copies to last four or five years. Alumni advisors will also be asked for their input. As a non-secret Fraternity, DU will also send copies to the fraternity advisors and Deans of Students who work with our chapters, for their insights. The cost of this project is about $35,000. It's an investment in the future of our Fraternity, as the new manual should have a profound impact on the lives of young men coming into Delta Upsilon into the 1990s and beyond. The final task: Assessing the current name for the manual. The committee welcomes all ideas in keeping with DU principles and the thrust of the new DU manual.
Some chapters with top grades Each year Delta Upsilon recognizes chapters that have attained high academic achievement. The two categories for recognition include: highest fraternity Grade Point Average (GPA) on campus, and chapter GPA above both the campus AII-Men's Average and the All-Fraternity Average. To qualify for awards, chapters must meet these criteria for at least one term during the academic year. The figures must be reported and confirmed by an independent source. Because some institutions do not report chapter rankings until after June 1, some chapters may be omitted from this listing. However, all qualifying chapters will be recognized at the annual Awards Banquet during DU's annual Leadership Conference if official notice reaches Fraternity Headquarters by July 22.

Alumni can help chapters initiate more men Final figures for the year aren't complete, but it appears that DU added just under 1,500 new members this year. Pledging was definitely up, with more than 1,800 men pledging our chapters. Alumni can assist this encouraging growth in many ways: recommending DU to a young man on his way to college, and sending word of sharp high school graduates to a nearby DU chapter; sending a contribution toward rush expenses at your home chapter or another nearby group of DUs; or serving as a volunteer alumni speaker for a chapter, thus giving them a rush opportunity and yet another benefit to sell to a rushee. N ames of new pledges are printed in the D.U. Dialogue, DU's twice-monthly chapter newsletter.

InFebruary the alumni corporation held itsannual meeting atthe chapter, with chapter officers and other brothers. It was decided that the house would be remortgaged so more improvements could be made over the summer. Some of these improvements include remodeling basement rooms, bringing capacity to 47. In March we hosted a faculty dinner. Many Deans and the President of the University attended. The guests were very impressed with the house. The leadership shown bythe chapter officers and the seniors has made this comeback year truly sensational. The seniors have served as excellent role models and the juniors are now ready toassume the leadership roles fornext year. Inshort, the future has never looked better forDU atColgate. Rocco DiSabatino '88, Past President
Colorado The Colorado Chapter iscontinuing toimprove its foundations soit may stay a strong chapter formany years to come. In this quest, Colorado made major improvements this quarter. We obtained a $320,000 refinancing ofourhouse topayoff back taxes and the mortgage. This greatly improved member motivation. We have also implemented our second year of summer rush which webelieve is a big improvement over last year's and we are expecting great things to come ofit.Finally, our alumni are noticing our improvements and we are finding alumni support we never thought existed. All inall,Colorado is looking forward toan excellent fall. Robert S. Moss '89, President
Colorado State No report was received from President Adam Mack. The Colorado State Chapter is attempting to rebuild after the loss ofthe chapter house. They have adedicated core ofmen who want tosave the chapter. We hope you received the last alumni newsletter which was the first such mailing for along time. We are currently looking for some interested alumni inthe Fort Collins area who would be willing tooffer some oftheir time asadvisors tothe chapter asit rebuilds. The chapter president's summer address isNorth Star Route, Lyons CO 80540.
Cornell The past six months have been very successful for Cornell. The beginning of the year was rather quiet since many brothers were busy playing football. Things picked upinOctober when we enjoyed one of our best Homecomings ever. Over 50alumni shared their stories with us. InJanuary our rush effort paid off and we pledged 25men. We are pleased tosay that in addition toaGPA of2.8,15 pledges play football while others play lacrosse, baseball, hockey and track. The chapter received several honors at the IFC banquet April 29. DU was one of five fraternities named Most Outstanding on Campus, and Brother Joe Toscano was one of four men honored as outstanding contributors tothe IFC. Also received was a Special Commendation for our work with Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol. Thanks tolast year's pledge class of30, wehad a full house with 50 brothers living in,putting us in the black financially. We hope additional revenue will let us replace windows in the kitchen and library with some that are more energy efficient. Overall morale is high, finances are good and the chapter isas strong as ever.

Creighton The spring semester has been one ofthe best for allofusatthe Creighton Chapter. Our rush netted nine pledges, giving us21 men, upfrom nine last fall. The pledges sponsored several events, including a trip to Emporia State Colony. After a night with the Emporia men, the pledges and actives headed toThe Villages tolend a helping hand. Most of the excitement inthe past months for the chapter has been the extensive renovation under way atthe house. The basement is under construction to create room for three more residents. Pending approval ofaloan, the basement will have abathroom for the convenience ofnew residents. Also included inthe loan will be funds toreplace the back porch with anew sundeck. In the attic, flooring and drywall are being installed. The attic will become a recreation room including pool and foosball tables. With the alumni corporation under reorganization, we look forward torenewed alumni commitment. Any alumni inthe Omaha area wishing tohelp uskeep up the momentum are encouraged tocall the chapter for information on events. We would also like to invite allthe alumni in the Omaha area to attend ourfall semester rush events slated tobegin on August 29. John F. Beckman 1/ '89, Past President George W. McNary 75, Corp. Treasurer
Culver-Stockton The Culver-Stockton Colony is now the CulverStockton Chapter of Delta Upsilon. We started the spring semester with our installation ceremony on January 23, with 23undergraduates and four alumni. InFebruary, during our spring rush, DU welcomed six pledges. Also in February we held another ofour successful "breakfast in bed" contests. Ten lucky winners were treated to breakfast delivered to their rooms. Upcoming plans include a mixer with asorority, a
retreat, a car wash fund raiser, and a trip toanother chapter nearby. We are looking ahead toward finding housing to accommodate more of our brothers. Culver-Stockton DUs swept nine awards at the College's annual Honors Day. DUs won awards for outstanding senior; top history, social science, citizenship, band and dramatics student awards; outstanding freshman man; outstanding IFe pledge and IFC member. Allin all, ourfirst semester as a DU chapter has been great and we expect to continue that way. Paul A. Sharpe '91, CR Secretary K. Terry Sherer, Bradley '66, Advisor
DePauw The men of DU again finished first among all fraternities with a 2.96 GPA. Spring semester we topped allfraternities and sororities with a 3.04. This marks the fifth straight semester we have finished number one. Our continued academic success isdue inpart toour 26-man pledge class who finished second among allfraternity pledge classes. OnFebruary 13, we initiated 25 new members into DU, bringing our membership to 75, second largest on campus. InMarch, 18DUs and 17 DZs spent a Saturday repairing a home for a low-income housing project in Indianapolis. Brothers have also visited the local Villages home and cleared debris at a home for the elderly. Finally, the chapter is planning a fall philanthropy inconjunction with Domino's Pizza. Inintramurals, DU soccer finished second, losing the championship game in overtime. Infinancial news, the chapter budget was ratified April 9 by the Alumni Chapter. We will be receiving estimates and discussing ways to finance projects. Jeffrey L. Harmening '89, President Joe H. Petty '36, Deputy

Since then, the chapter has not relaxed but continues to strive for excellence. We are proud of our involvement with local community groups.

Duck Tales contains 100 percent chapter news including articles from the president and rush chairman. Incombination with The Avenger, which contains 100 percent alumni news, our alumni relations are better than ever. Gerald W. Woodard '88, Past President Gerald D. Rieken '81, Counselor
The Louisville Chapter is experiencing a rebuilding process for 1988. We are using the summer to redefine each office in ourchapter. With these role changes, each member can better understand his individual contribution, and see how his role helps our chapter work toward being a campus and community leader. We have suffered a slight decline inmembership from the past year. Rush chairman Ted Bordador, also the University's IFC rush chairman, combats this problem with aninnovative summer rush calendar unique from any other oncampus. Newly appointed treasurer Mark Kleiner has worked with University officials toset uplong-term financial plans. In Intramurals we won basketball for the fourth time in the last five years, and also won horseshoes. The living room isgetting new lights, ceiling fans, and new furniture, and the halls are being recarpeted. Our goals will beset higher than ever this fall. But with all the young leaders we now have, these goals have better potential than ever before tobe reached. Jeffrey A. Brian '89, President

Northwestern Having lost 27seniors tothe "real" world, this year has been one ofregrouping. Over the summer we improved the physical plant: Repairing the kitchen refrigeration system and roof, and refurbishing the anteroom. Itnow has new carpeting, a leather sofa, two leather chairs, new tables and lighting fixtures. The anteroom isnow ideal for executive board and alumni meetings, and for studying. Fall was highlighted by 13pledges coming from Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Arizona, Connecticut and Maryland. These guys alllook like leaders ofDU. Academically we improved where we were already strong. The fall GPA was 3.01 which raised our house cumulative GPA to3.00; the highest fraternity GPA was 3.3 while the average was 2.98. Inkeeping with the tradition ofservice, the chapter was presented with a letter of commendation and a touching handmade plaque from the residents ofthe Miserecordia Home for mentally handicapped children.

Oklahoma Atthe Oklahoma Chapter we are continuing our rich tradition inthe area ofcampus leadership, philanthropies, grades and intramurals. "ADU ineverything, every DU in something.: still rings true. DUs currently hold the chair ofour Student Congress, and three IFC offices: rush chairman, Greek Week chair and president. We also have two men on the Campus Activities Council Executive Committee. Last spring we raised almost $10,000 for a state charity and this spring we participated in two other philanthropies. One of our longest running traditions has been academic excellence. Last semester the "Ducks" managed toplace second among Greek houses. This semester we hope tobe first inthe overall competition which would enable usto retire the IFC Scholarship Cup. Out ofthe classroom, the Oklahoma Chapter isin a close race for first place inoverall athletic competition. We were 20 points from first place with one major sport left inthe season. DU atthe University ofOklahoma isstill striving for excellence. We feel that by exploring allofourweaknesses and changing to today's environment surrounding Greek systems, new doors will open for our chapter. David J. Biechler '89, President

Oregon Since our installation as achapter inFebruary, we have reaffirmed our commitment to not spending chapter funds on alcohol. We have collaborated with the University of Oregon administration to revise its alcohol policy, which helped lead tothe administration issuing a mandate to the Greek system to stop the purchase ofalcohol with chapter funds. We are concentrating very hard on our scholastics and hoped to win our competition for spring term grades with Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. We initiated eight men the weekof May 23-28. We have also planned an extensive summer rush program and hope topick up20-25 quality men inthe fall. On May 7we held our annual Milo Marlatt alumni golf tournament. The money we raised will go tothe National Cancer Society inhonor ofMilo Marlatt This fall we are having two alumni events sostay tuned. To date this year we have held 16documented community service projects. Most recently we did landscape work on one ofEugene's historical houses.

membership to 50, the strongest in years. We also turned ina very strong academic effort, placing 11 th out of 52 fraternities and surpassing the all-men's average. This isamajor improvement from 49th place two years ago. The debut ofour new philanthropy in April was a smashing success. Inan idea borrowed from the San Jose Chapter, the brothers sponsored a haircut-athon on campus that benefitted United Cerebral Palsy of Qentre County. Due to the tremendous turnout, more students were turned away than actually had their hair cut. Next year's Cut-a-thon will be even bigger with additional corporate sponsors. The first set ofnew windows has been installed in the chapter house. These beautiful new windows, made possible by generous alumni support, should improve our quality of life even more. We warmly welcome allalumni who would like tocome by tosee the improvements. The house looks greatl We hope tosee you allatthe chapter house on October 8th for the annual Homecoming alumni reception. DU tradition isalive and flourishing atPenn State! Christopher A. Keifer '89, President Larry J. Kuhns '68, Advisor
Purdue The Purdue Chapter started fall semester slowly. Even though the pledge class was small, they managed to place second out of47 fraternities academically. Spring rush was somewhat beller, but numbers within the chapter continue topose a problem. Rush recommendations and advice from any alumnus ofthe chapter would be welcome and greatly appreciated. Academically we continue tobe ranked inthe top third and again we are doing well inintramurals. Our fall philanthropy, Haunted House for underprivileged children in the Lafayette area, was again a success. We are increasingly looking forward to next year and have already started planning sothat wemay become one ofthe strongest chapters at Purdue. Any alumni involvement in our chapter would be greatly appreciated, and we hope for much more. Look for more information on alumni events in the Pur-Duo David E. Selig '89, President Paul R.

Rutgers Last year's Most Improved Chapter atRutgers has shown greater improvement this year. We have recently finished improving our living room. It was repainted,in addition toa new rug, curtains, pool table, and furniture. We then dediceted the living room toone ofour trustees, Charlie Ficken '40, for the leadership hehas given us. We also purchased a new $1,000 weight lifting set which was financed through various fund raisers. This semester we have 15members on the varsity lacrosse team which was ranked nationally inapre-season poll. However, academic performance isa big concern. Recently here atRutgers a tragic event occurred. Apledge ofanother fraternity died ofexcessive alcohol consumption at a party following his pinning ceremony. Therefore the Greek community has fallen under heavy scrutiny by the University and the media. Because ofthis, we were prohibited from pledging any men this semester. Through various philanthropic activities, we intend to maintain the good name of Delta Upsilon, and the Rutgers Greek community. Richard J. Tuite, Jr. '89, President Leo Gasienica '73, Corp. President DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY路 July,
San Diego Alumni advisors tothe chapter, along with University officials, raised serious concerns about the chapter's activities and future this spring. Alumni required pledges and members tobecome current financially and tocomplete required grade report forms or be expelled. This process produced some awareness ofthe need for chapter improvement and compliance with Fraternity policies. In early May, a guest was seriously injured at a chapter social event by jumping from the chapter house balcony into a pond set up for the party. He remains partially paralyzed. Faced with chapter inability to care for chapter property and to have enough men living in,the alumni corporation planned a meeting inmid-July ofSan Diego Chapter alumni todetermine the immediate future ofchapter operations and long-term use ofchapter assets.
San Jose The spring semester was one ofprogress for the San Jose Chapter. Inan excellent goal-setting meeting, the San Jose DUs are strengthening our chapter through teamwork, involvement, and stronger participation. One highlight of the semester was the 40th anniversary Full Moon Formal. We are currently restructuring our alumni chapter through the dedicated work of Rich Schooley '86. On campus, Rolando Bernardo '88 was named Greek Man ofthe Year. Lastly, we have been affiliated by Dave Gustlin of the Oregon Chapter and Chris Diorio from Ohio State. James P. Burton '89, Past President H. Brent Heisinger '58, Counselor
Santa Barbara No report was received from President Robert N. Ranes. The chapter was installed on January 9. Fiftynine men were initiated atthe ceremony, the largest installation in recent history. Since then, the chapter pledged 19men, and was selected to host the 1989 Province 11 Regional Leadership Seminar. The chapter house is in an ideal location, being only one block from both campus and the ocean. Its lease has been extended another year and the landlord reports itisvery well maintained by the members. The chapter has good alumni involvement with several men active from among about 50 alumni inthe Santa Barbara area. Itproduces afine newsletter, and has a solid foundation for alumni relations. But more alumni are always needed toadvise this new chapter. The proof ofquality ofa new DU chapter ishow it performs in its first five years. With installation just being the beginning, the Santa Barbara Chapter must now plan itsnext achievements.
South Carolina On April 9, South Carolina celebrated its fifth anniversary with aweek ofevents for undergraduates and alumni.

Almost everyone is involved in something. The alumni board has put renewed emphasis on budgeting. For the first time intwo and a half years we ran a surplus. Tighter alumni interest and control should continue this trend. Fall semester we slipped to13th out of 25fraternities ingrades. We had not been out ofthe top eight inthree years. We are stressing scholastics asmuch as possible, and we will be looking very hard at rushees' GPAs from high school. Our annual softball tournament for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation raised $1,000.

DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY· July,
1988
que was held April 13at the house of our alumni president, Lloyd Gillette. Everyone in attendance agreed that itwas asuccess. Planning isunder way to hold our first annual golf tournament inSeptember. All interested alumni should leave their name with Jim Leitch at 403-238-0659. The reception we have received from the other fraternities on campus has been very favorable. We look forward to meeting many of the delegates in Kansas this summer. Scott D. Reynolds '90, President
Emporia State Colony The men ofthe Delta Upsilon Colony atEmporia State have been working very hard this year tosave our colony. So farwe have increased our membership four times over, starting with six members inAugust and working up toa total membership of24. Spring semester we pledged six men and lined up 11 more rushees who we hope will pledge this summer. In addition, all officers notebooks have been written in detail to help future officers. Besides the regular office work and rushing, we have also worked on getting allmembers involved with DU. This effort produced participation in the annual Lavitsef Emporia State carnival with our Dunk-a-duck booth which raised $33 for the chapter. We also took a trip toThe Villages with the Creighton Chapter toperform some good old-fashioned manual labor. For campus relations, we participated inthe campus International Club Mini Olympics taking more medals than any other student organization. For Greek relations, we fielded teams for every event olthe Greek Olympics unlike the previous year. For the finale we were represented at the Greek banquet by 12 members and our faculty advisor. We plan on keeping up the good work and hopefully getting our charter this coming fall. Jeffrey S. Dancinger '89, President James M. Smith, Corp. President
Guelph Colony No report was received from President Patrick Russell. The Guelph Colony is looking forward to installation inOctober; and, accordingly, has spent the past year building asound foundation atthe University ofGuelph. The colony has made tremendous strides toillustrate tothe campus that they are more than a social club. They were involved with Shinerama and Big Brothers in the "Bowling for Millions' campaign, and were successful ingetting government aid, matching every dollar they earned with nine for a food campaign. Additionally, colony members have been very active on the campus this year, ensuring positions on several University committees and the student government. There isa strong emphasis on academics; and this has produced acolony GPAoverthe all-men's average. The colony has also established acommittee toresearch purchasing a new chapter house.
lona Interest Group
goal ofestablishing aDU chapter here atlona College. We invite any and all Delta Ualumni inthe New York area to participate with us. Jeff Williams, President
Kent State Interest Group After more than ten years, DU isbeing revived at Kent State. We are a hard-working group often men who have done much tobe recognized on campus. We have just participated inGreek Week and are planning events with other fraternities for next semester. Our alumni chapter isvery strong with over 100 paying members. They have been great insupporting us, mentally and financially. The alumni have brought back the traditional Wop-Harp Picnic. ltwill take place this summer, and alumni, members and pledges are invited. Hopefully a house will be bought orrented in the next year, again with alltheir help. We would especially like to thank Leadership Consultant Dan Spencer forall his help ingetting us organized and giving us the confidence we need. With his help, we have aplan to triple our size bySpring '89 and toget our charter by fall ofthat same year. All of us are excited about the years ahead and especially next fall when we are able torecruit more members. We are all very proud to become some of the newest members of Delta Upsilon. Mark Giorgianni '91, President Nicholas T. Giorgianni '56, Advisor
Northern Colorado Colony The Northern Colorado Colony isquietly achievIng excellence. Inour first term, fall quarter we were first in grades with a colony GPA of 2,8. We are confident ofmaintaining this academic edge over the six other fraternities on campus, To facilitate this we have instituted apolicy requiring all members tomaintain at least a 2,5 GPA. Also we have sent letters to freshman and sophomore men with a GPA of2.5 or more, inviting them torush Delta Upsilon. Other projects completed in the fall include a reception at our College of Business Administration and asexual awareness week which we co-sponsored with the Sigma Kappa sorority and College ofArts and Sciences. We now have 23 affiliates and two pledges. June 2nd we learned we will have a house next semester. The new house at928 20th Street, isthe old Alpha Phi house right across from the Residence Hall and Student Union, Jonathan R, Ellison '89, SecretaIY
Texas A & MColony The colony has been quite busy this semester with organization and creating an image for itself on campus. We have sponsored two educational events on campus topromote the good name ofDU. The Fraternitywas very active inA&M's first Greek Week. We are also holding our first Parents Day and it should be a great success I
This past semester was one ofaccomplishments and hard struggle for the lona Interest Group. Although We have about 30men, not including freshmen, and have the support of the student body, over 1,500 students signed apetition ofsupport (out ofastudent body of3,500), the student government wouldn't recognize DU as astudent group. This struggle has made the group a tighter knit organization and we will succeed ingetting recognized in the fall. We are a well diver~ified group of men with the DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY' July,
The colony isespecially working hard on filling the requirements tobecome installed since our tentative installation date isNovember 4,1988. We have nearly finished work on an aggressive summer and fall rush program and we would appreciate any recommendations from any alumni. C. Kirk McGarrah '88, President
Trent Colony We, the members ofthe Trent Colony, are proud toannounce our affiliation with Delta Upsilon. We were formed by students attending Trent University which is located inPeterborough, Ontario, Canada. We are the first Greek organization toappear on the Trent campus which supports 3,300 full-time students. Fourteen dedicated members were initiated by William D. Greenberg, Western Ontario '73, Martin D. Collier, McGill '54, and Thomas D. Hansen, Iowa State '79, Executive Director, on March 26, 1988. We have since initiated three more eager individuals. We published an awareness article inthe school newspaper and are noW faced with aflood ofindividuals considering membership with us. In the fall, our goal istopledge 40to50quality men, We plan tomake several trips tochapters allacross North America so that we may absorb some of the brain power and character that makes Delta Upsilon a superlative organization. Please write tousifyou have any ideas or suggestions which have been successful in all aspects of chapter management. We are anxious to develop high quality programs and would appreciate any assistance that could be offered. We would like to thank Tom Hansen and William Greenberg for all their support and thanks also tothe participants ofthe RLS at Ann Arbor, Michigan. Donald A. McMartin, Jr., President
Western Michigan Colony We have had a good year atWestern Michigan. We initiated two strong pledge classes ofeight men each. Our numbers, only four last September, are up to20 men. Because ofour increased numbers, we are getting more recognition on campus and with the other Greek organizations. We will be trying todouble our numbers through fall rush and have a good start on it already. Hopefully we will have made sufficient progress tobe installed as a chapter next year. We have had some trouble with public relations and treasury, and are focusing our efforts into correcting these two areas. We placed third scholastically last semester after being number one the semester before. We are working hard torecapture the high GPA award. For all our alumni, we have Homecoming the weekend of October 1 and are expecting a good turnout to celebrate our resurgence and hopefully a Bronco victory I Start thinking about coming to an Installation ceremony, too I Michael Dietz '89, President
