MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
~
"Connections, Connections , Connections!" "It 's not on ly what you know, it 's who YOll know." "Networking is a key to sllccess ." Dear Brothers: We've all heard those phrases and others similar to them. There is validity in the notion that our lives are impacted by our relationship with others. Our membership in Delta Upsilon gives us a commonality Ed Porter, and connection with nearly 60 ,000 men scattered all over the Oklahoma '65 world. Our membership includes CEOs of Fortune 500 companies , congressmen, college presidents, entertainers, generals, cowboys, physicians, lawyers, clergymen, coaches, and nearly every other profession imaginable. DU includes men from every race and nearly every nation, all connected by our common bond of brotherhood. Each of us declared at our initiation that the principles of friendship , character, culture , and justice were consistent with our own views. These are rock solid principles that bind us together. A former President of DU International, Judge Terry Bullock, Kansas State '61, states in his numerous DU speeches that we should all "take advantage of this great storehouse of brotherhood to emich our lives." Delta Upsilon in cooperation with Harris Publishing, is preparing an all new, updated directory. It will list every DU who responded to the mailings to gather information for the directory. This directory will allow all of us to maintain or renew our connections with one another. There are a number of rewarding uses: • The Geographical Section reveals which DUs live near you. You may be surprised! • The Career Networking Section lists all DU Brothers by profession so we can all work together more profitably. You may find that the professional you need is a DU! • The Chapter Section can be used to find brothers from your chapter in order to organize a reunion or rekindle a friendship. To obtain a copy of the new directory, please contact Craig Sowell, Houston '92, at 317-875-8900 ext. 225, or Sowell@Deltau .org. Delta Upsilon has been building better men for almost 170 years. We are each better men because of our association with our DU brothers. I hope each DU will continue to practice our principles and will stay in touch with one another. I look forward to hearing from you. Justice, Our Foundation,
fa0r~ Ed Porter, Oklahoma '65 President Delta Upsilon International Fraternity okporter@aol.com 2

The year 2002 marks a special occasion for the Carthage Chapter of Delta Upsilon. It has been nearly a decade that their advisor, William "Bill" Hoare, has worked with the chapter. During this time, he has served not only as an advisor but as a trusted friend of the Fraternity. Bill has asked for nothing in return, however, the chapter strives to show its appreciation. At the spring 200 I FLAME Leadership Awards, William Hoare was chosen as Carthage College's Advisor of the Year based on a nomination written by members of the chapter. Greek unity, included a philanthropy, Greek sing, and tug competition. To promote unity within the Greek system a large fraternity is matched with a smaller fraternity and a sorority to make up the competing teams. The championship team was made up of Kappa Delta, Delta Upsilon, and Phi Delta Theta. The team won first place in Tug, first place in spirit, and third in the Greek Week banner competition. The Greek Week win marks the second significant victory this academic year for the Central Florida Chapter, following a win in the fall 200 I Homecoming their competition.

As Bill has advised the Carthage Chapter, they have continued to excel. The chapter has the highest GPA for fraternities as well as exceeding the college's all men's average .The chapter's GPA for the spring 200 I semester was 3.006. Carthage DUs hold four of the five executive board seats of the Student Government.The brothers strive to live up to the motto, "A DU in everything, every DU in something." In each residence hall , one-fourth of the Resident Assistant's staff are DUs, as are two of the four Assistant Hall Directors.

The University of Illinois hosted the Greek Oscars, an awards ceremony at which chapter achievements were recognized. The Illinois Chapter of Delta Upsilon was proud to receive 1st place in the fields of intramurals, best new philanthropy, and most money raised for a philanthropy.

Kansa~haPter The Kansas Chapter initiated 20 men on February 10, 2002. The chapter finished third among KU fraternities for the spring semester with a 3.07 GPA, the highest in the last I 5 years. Over 20 faculty members joined the chapter for the scholarship dinner and an awards ceremony. At the February 25 IFe awards night, DU was recognized for its financial management and operations, and for its risk management and programming. Mothers' weekend was the second weekend in April. This was followed by the neighborhood cleanup project. Other fraternities and sororities were invited to eat burgers at the chapter house and then go into the surrounding neighborhood to clean up trash . Individually the Kansas DUs have been busy with the student senate, internships, club sports, and other campus activities.
Michigan-CoIony The Michigan Colony has already begun re-claiming a position of prestige at the University of Michigan. As the only alcohol-free, non-secret fraternity on campus, the group is well aware of the precedent they are setting. The entire Greek system at the University of Michigan is evolving and the colony welcomes the challenge of re-building Delta Upsilon based on the Four Founding Principles. From the very beginning, the new colony has used the values of DU to its benefit and thus far has met with nothing but success. The colony members are indebted to the local alumni for their encouragement and eagerness to bring DU back to campus. Alumni support has been an essential part of the colony's success and the group encourages alumni participation and involvement.
Lafayette Massachusettยง Cfiapter Cliapler On May 24,2002, Lafayette College announced that Elaine R. Reynolds, assistant professor of biology, was the recipient of the Delta Upsilon Distinguished Mentoring and Teaching Award. The award was established in 2000 by the alumni of the Lafayette Chapter of Delta Upsilon on the I 15th anniversary of the chapter's founding. The award recognizes members of the Lafayette College faculty for distinctive and extraordinary teaching through mentoring.This may include advising, undergraduate research, independent study, or any of the many one-on-one mentoring activities that take place in a studentcentered learning environment.
Despite the October 5, 200 I, chapter house fire, the Massachusetts Chapter remains one of the strongest chapters on the UMass campus.The chapter moved into a new house this spring.This temporary lodging is smaller than the original DU house and can accommodate only 16 men, as opposed to the 28-person house they had. The chapter has the second largest pledge class this semester (nine) and initiated all 14 pledges from the previous semester. Membership is at SO brothers, making Delta Upsilon the second largest fraternity at UMass. The chapter plans to rebuild the house at 778 North Pleasant Street with help from the alumni association. The new house will accommodate 30 men and the cost will be around $600,000. The chapter is still relying on contributions from alumni in addition to the alumni of other chapters who have been so generous in their donations.The undergraduate members of the Massachusetts Chapter want to express their thanks to all of the alumni and other DU chapters who helped in their time of need.

nights and basketball tournaments have been common, and brothers spend time having round table discussions on various topics that help promote the Fraternity's purpose of building better men. In addition to just having fun, the Northern Iowa Chapter has been busy serving the community and spending time with local YMCA members. Brothers spent six weeks refereeing youth basketball games on Saturday mornings and continued active service with the Big Brothers program, plus the chapter offered service time to the local Boys & Girls Club. April brought brothers together to help build a home through Habitat for Humanity.
The Northern Iowa Chapter hosted a faculty appreciation luncheon in lateFebruary to thank professors for the time, dedication, and inspiration they give to the students. Brothers gave tours of the chapter house, made presentations on Delta Upsilon history and principles, and answered questions. The Promotion of Friendship was the theme for spring 2002 at Northern Iowa. Brotherhood events such as regular movie

This year's Greek Week at the University ofTexas-Pan American in Edinburg was held on March 18-21 .Activities included a quiz show, free throw competition, and an obstacle course. Greek Week concluded with each organization performing a comedy act and participating in a talent show. The Pan American Chapter of DU greatly benefited from the stand-up comedy routine of Joshua Ceaser, Pan American '03, who had everyone rolling in the aisles. Brother Francisco Bouret, Pan American '05, a black belt in tae kwon do, displayed his martial arts skills during the talent show. As a result, the Pan American Chapter was awarded the first place trophy and was recognized as the most versatile Greek organization on campus! 6

Rochest~r t ~lIap er The first weekend in February was an exciting weekend for the Rochester Chapter with the initiation of II new members and the beginning of a series of events celebrating Delta Upsilon's sesqUicentennial. In keeping with tradition, the ceremony was held in the Old Delta Upsilon House, which has stood on the Fraternity Quadrangle since the late 1920s. Dave Maguire, Southern Illinois 73, acted as master of ceremonies and performed the Ritual of Initiation. David P. Fowler, Rochester '92, delivered the Charge to the new brothers. Brother Fowler emphasized the importance of heritage and tradition, and the importance of their opinions, although they may be new to the group, bringing a dichotomous and beneficial edge to the chapter. The ceremony was closed in Rochester style, with the ringing of the bell, once for each new brother.The bell is from the mid1900s and is one of the few remaining artifacts of the original Rochester Chapter.

February 2,2002, marked the celebration of Delta Upsilon's re-colonization at the University of Texas-Austin. The ceremony, including the induction of 30 members of the Texas Colony, took place on the UT campus in the Texas Union, one of the most historic and symbolic bliildings on campus . The University of Texas Chapter was originally established on October 29 , 1949, and became inactive in 1999. However, it did not take long for the group to come roaring back. The idea of bringing Delta Upsilon back to UT was first considered by Jacob Aguero , Texas '02 , in the fall of 2000 . He quickly recruited several men of merit with the idea of building a fraternity based on Friendship, Character, Culture, and Justice . With a large interest group in place, Brother Aguero contacted the Fraternity to obtain information on how to achieve colony status . Director of Fraternity Expansion John W. Duncan Jr., Oregon State '00, and Leadership Consultant Patrick J.B . Morison, Western Ontario '01 , helped to develop the interest group during the fall 2001 semester and assisted in the completion of the colonization requirements. Friends, family, and alumni attended the colonization ceremony in February of this year. Brother Aguero and undergraduate colony member Caleb Roquemore both spoke during the ceremony about what Delta Upsilon means to them and their plans for DU's future at UT. Jaime Aguero, Houston '98, and Kris Robl, Kansas State '98, served as officers for the ceremony. Following the ceremony, the members of the colony, parents, and guests attended a reception and dinner to celebrate the colony's

ALUMNI NEWS
Volunteers are a dime a dozen . Hardly. In fact , volunteers are a commodity; a rarity; a valued part of DU. Even more rare are the "lifers," those alumni that commit themselves to Delta Upsilon for eternity. Brother Joe H. Petty, DePauw '36, is one of them . A DU for nearly 70 years , Brother Petty ably serves as secretary of the DePauw Alumni Chapter & House Corporation. If there are reasons why communication between the alumni and undergraduates at DePauw exists at all , one part of the equation is Joe Petty. From his dutiful and copious meeting notes , typed meeting minutes are produced and distributed to the members of the board, undergraduates, and the Fraternity's central offices. These efforts are a minor part of the puzzle for Petty, however. The most important part to him is just being present and involved in the lives of the undergraduates. When Joe Petty came to DePauw as a student , he had no inclination as to what fraternities were. In 1933 , he was introduced to DU through the minister of his church, T. Fred Williams , DePauw '07. After investigating, he was drawn to DU by the quality of individuals in the chapter, and the
aspect of non-secrecy. While a student at DePauw, Petty worked for the DePauw University newspaper as the advertising manager, and was involved in intramurals. In addition to these activities, Petty was a self-proclaimed bookworm, making Phi Beta Kappa in addition to his DU involvement. Petty served as treasurer and vice-president of the chapter during his undergraduate years . Even though he was retired in 1985 as a public servant for the Indiana Employment Security Division , he has been an active volunteer for the DePauw Chapter since 1950. Brother Petty's reason for staying interested and involved: "I have been impressed with the men in the house and have enjoyed being around them , watching them grow in the chapter, and seeing how DU affects their lives . I enjoy seeing how they have become successful on campus and then seeing them become successful in their fields of work. "Besides that, I maintain an interest in seeing that the chapter keeps going strong and continues to uphold the principles of DU . If they continue abiding by the principles of DU, and not focusing on parties or being like the other guys, then they will be all right.
J. Petty
Joining DU because of the principles is what will mold the rest of your life ." Brother Petty offers some rather candid words as to why alumni should stay involved . "It's your own loss if you don't get involved. I think that alumni should not consider DU involvement so much a duty as an opportunity because the results can be very gratifying ." "From my viewpoint, I think that the undergraduates should be open and receptive to the alumni , because the alumni have gone through everything that the undergraduates have. If the alumni courteously give them advice in order to stay out of harm's way, the undergraduates should take that into consideration so we can avoid making the same mistakes that have been made in the past." Sage advice . Brother Petty's continued involvement and service to DU is inspirational. His involvement and dedication to excellence is an integral part of Delta Upsilon 's commitment to build better men .
