PI KAPPA PHI FRATERNITY
FALL 1991
It is often easier to ask forgiveness than permission! Durward W. Owen Although this sounds like a "getting away with it" statement, it really is not and is indeed a "get on with it" philosophy. Goethe alluded to it when he said, "What you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it." In 1965, PiKa ppa Phi had a desperate need for chapter housing assistance, and there was no vehicle available. At an NIC banquet in December, I met the Spiritual Advisor to Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity, Father McElhenny, a person that I found much inspiration from, and enjoyed knowing for several years thereafter. Father McElhenny told me of their bankrupt national corporation, PKT Housing, Inc. I asked if he would share with me the paperwork for the defunct effort, and he later sent me a copy. With some time available (Pi Kappa Phi was not such a complicated organization at that time), I reviewed their documents and with some adaptation came up with an organization I called Pi Kappa Phi Properties, Inc. I went to Kim Jepson, then our newly elected National President, and discussed with him what I had in mind. He thought about the composition of the National Council at that time and agreed with me that they just might not be ready for such boldness. Kim then gave me some of the best advice I have ever had, "If it is a sound answer to a problem, just do it! Just do it! It is often easier to ask forgiveness than permission ." So Pi Kappa Phi Properties, Inc., came
into existence that very year, with theN ational Council being asked to concur with decisions and actions which Kim and I had already put into place. Parenthetically, later when Kim died while serving as President of Pi Kappa Phi Properties, I realized that continued need for experienced leadership in our chapter housing arm, and the void his death would create. My flight to Lansing, MI, for the funeral was arranged with a six-hour layoverinChicagoatO'Hare Field. There, I arranged to meet with Kelley Bergstrom, lately of IBM Property Division and now, at that time, with JMB Realty. I explained our need and Kelley agreed to come on the Board of Pi Kappa Phi Properties. This was done without the approval of the Board. Kim's advice resulted in Properties experiencing the leadership of one of Pi Kappa Phi's most devoted and talented members, with an expertise so much needed. The instances of this philosophy working for me to the advantage of Pi Kappa Phi are too numerous to mention. However, I have fa ired well as the CEO of Pi Kappa Phi remembering that, "it is often easier to ask forgiveness than permission." Pi Kappa Phi has succeeded these past 30 years, because many, like Kim and Kelley, have believed and practiced "boldness has genius, power and magic to it," and have just done it! Oh, that many more alumni of Pi Kappa Phi would have that dream of bold ideas for Pi Kappa Phi and just do it.

Owen wins another interfraternity award Pi Kappa Phi's Chief Executive Officer Durward Owen was once again recognized for his outstanding contributions to the Greek world. This time, Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity honored him with their 1991 Salsbury-Scott Award. The award recognizes an individual who has made significant contributions to the interfraternity community. Owen's tireless efforts and courageous leadership in the area of risk management made him a clear choice to receive the Salsbury-Scott Award. Other fraternities agree. "I can think of no other fraternity leader more deserving of this prestigious award than Durward Owen," said David Westol, Executive Director for Theta Chi Fraternity. "Almost nothing we can do as Greeks can fully repay (Owen) for the superior service (he) has given to our system as the leader of FIPG," said Maggie Watkins, Executive Director of Delta Gamma Fraternity.

Trustee retires from the Board Walter Avery, Alpha DeltaWashington, a trustee of the Foundation since January 1985, has submitted his resignation due to health reasons. In accepting the resignation with regret, Chairman Dr. James Edwards praised Avery for his enlightened participation in Foundation and Fraternity activities. "Walter was the one trustee with professional fundraising experience and his continued wise advice and counsel will be missed," Dr. Edwards said. Avery, in addition to his leadership of the Foundation, is a strong supporter of his chapter at the University of Washington. He was one of the 11 investors who helped buy the Fraternity's annex in 1990. A retired Naval officer, Walter and wife Kathryn live in Falls Church, Va.

What could happen if every alumnus gave at least $50 to the Foundation? 1. There would be an increased endowment providing income for scholarships, grants, loans, and educational materials. 2. There would be more Foundation support - providing speakers like Will Keirn at national events and expanding Pi Kapp College. 3. There would be a larger base to guarantee the future. 4. There would be an increased support for PUSH, the national outreach project that serves the severely disabled. 5. There would be increased support for national leadership events such as the two Mid-Year Leadership Conferences. 6. There would be increased support for the Area Governors and Chapter Advisors through enhanced seminar programs. 7. Chapters would receive increased support to provide more programs on their respective campuses. 8. There would be increased placement of computer facilities in chapter houses (i.e. Alpha Epsilon-Florida). 9. The award-winning poster program could be expanded to include more contemporary topics. 10. The collegiate life of 7,000 students could be a richer experience touching the real essence of brotherhood that is Pi Kappa Phi. The annual appeal is the means by which alumni renew their support of Pi Kappa Phi. Take a few minutes to consider your Fraternity experience and share that feeling with today's students.
Your investment in Pi Kappa Phi will pay dividends for years to come.

Cornell finds new home, sweet, home On Nov. 1, 1991, Psi Chapter at Cornell University began a new era with the acquisition of their new house on 55 Ridgewood Road. The house sits in the heart of the north campus fraternity district. The 39-man house overlooks seven acres of land which was purchased from Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity. The Phi Sigs lost their charter due to low membership and risk management issues. The house is now owned by Pi Kappa Phi Properties. The house has three floors, a full basement public room, and an operational kitchen. Major remodeling is scheduled for the summer of 1992 as Psi Brother Peter Trozze will lead the architectural efforts. Foundation Executive VP Ted Scharfenstein is currently plan-
Psi house on 55 Ridgewood Road in Ithaca, N.Y. ning the drive for a major brick and mortar fundraising campaign. The Psi Alumni Corporation is led by
President Bill Newell and Treasurer John Kirk. Psi Chapter currently has 52 members.
Fraternity to establish for-profit corporation The National Council authorized Chief Executive Officer Durward Owen to establish a forprofit corporation for Pi Kappa Phi at itsquarterlymeetingNov.17inCharlotte, NC. The name of the subsidiary will be called The Owen Corporation which will provide services to improve and enhance fraternity programming on the university level. The final papers have yet to be approved by the Council. The National Council also endorsed a scholarship program. The 11 -point scholarship program includes hiring staffers to educate members on academics, producing a resource videotape, studying campus
grade point averages and recognizing chapters with scholastic excellence. In other Council news, all eligible chapters will receive a rebate per student from the PKP Insurance Escrow. The chapters will be given the opportunity to deposit the rebate with the Foundation for a chapter scholarship program. The Council approved a "short form " application for Infrastructure Loans that will be used on all requests for less than $7,500. In disciplinary matters, National President Stephen DePalma will appoint two Council members to conductinterviewsatAlphaMu-Penn
State for a risk management violation. Epsilon Beta-Grand Valley State and Epsilon Omicron-Villanova will be reorganized for risk management violations. Alpha Xi-Polytechnic was suspended indefinitely, and its charter was placed in escrow with the Alpha Xi Housing Corp. T.J. Sullivan was appointed chairman of the Education Committee. Durward Owen was instructed to use the title Chief Executive Officer instead ofExecutive Director. Finally, the Council approved Pi Kappa Phi Properties borrowing $50,000 from the Infrastructure Loan, in part, to purchase new housing at Cornell, Michigan and Texas-Austin. Fa/1199 1

San Francisco hosts "Give-a-PUSH" Weekend Pi Kapps fr o m Area Xdescended upon San Francisco for the fourth "Give-a-PUSH" Weekend on Oct. 25-27 at the Recreation Center for the Handicapped. Over 100 brothers spent the entire weekend at the RCH hammering, saw-
ing and planting in the most successful "Give-a-PUSH" Weekend ever. The $20,000-grant from PUSH purchased the materials and supplies needed to construct a 3,400 square-foot children's playground, build a wheel chair
ramp, clear logs and debris for a day camp area, and landscape the entire site. The playground consists of a children's workshop, a pirate's ship, and a superseesaw. OnSaturdaynight, Pi Kapps played basketball
against the Center's "Wildcats" tagged as "the basketball team that never lost a game." In Globetrotter-like fashion, the Wildcats did prevail over the Pi Kapps, and both teams who played and watched had a great time.

The following was written by a brother at Indiana State University in 15 minutes on the eve of his Ritual of Initiation. Days have passed, many have gone I think of the principles I based my life on Then I think back to the date I was accepted in The day that I was given a bid Since that day I have known much joy, This group formed a man from a boy I feel like I have gone down a long narrow road The directions to go I was never told But I knew at the end my Lord would be Waiting there just for me My road has been rough and in the middle of a hill A tough one that any other man it would kill When I finally got to the top, it didn't go down But there was a different road with hands all around Hands of Brothers there to help me on my way The kindness they show me, I don't know how to repay
I do know something that is so true To my dear Brothers I love every one of you It was rough and people have tried to stop us But we hung in there, we were too tough So my Brothers I sit here in happiness with a tear For I hold you in my heart, To me you are dear The lights flicker by my side There they glow with nothing to hide And I think that this is the way we are We all have one light and everyone is in charge To make sure it keeps burning when others are tired and weak For there is a lot of pride that others try to seek My time is short but it's for all you to know Pi Kappa Phi till we die. I love you all so God Bless with Love.
Lessons of Life Arden Anderson II Zeta Lambda-CSU-Chico I found myself in a meadow, On a dim and old trail. It led off into the trees, Of the forest beyond. As I passed through, an archway of trees, I stopped for moment, From my journey through Life. Other men had stopped,
But few had ever seen. All that the world held, Was within the grasp of their mind. As I gazed down the path, A child took my hand, Saying, "Follow me brother, On this journey through Life." Within a short while, That child became a man.
I found strength in his heart, And comfort in his grip. As the miles fell behind, We talked of many things, And I learned a man alone, Cannot last a journey through Life. The lessons taught to me, Along that wooded path, Show that Brotherhood is the key, To our journey through Life.
I Know Not ... John Corss, Iota-Georgia Tech I know not why some walk this world when others' tread has stopped. Or why some walk alone through all that God has wrought. I know not why He touches some when others are in the dark, Or why some stand alone a prisoner to their heart. I know not why a child stays
when Manhood should come about. Or why some feel alone, cold, worthless, and left out. I know not why the reasons why my Heart has been touched, By God's eternal children but to this fact I trust... I shall never be alone for Wonder shines within, At all the "children" I have known and the gift God's given them. Fa/11991

60 years of brotherhood The Alpha Sigma Chapter at the University of Tennessee celebrated 60 years of existence this fall. The chapter recognized the event during Homecoming with an alumni banquet. During Alpha Sigma's 60 years in Knoxville, they have initiated 836 men, occupied five houses, won numerous homecoming trophies, garnered many all-sing trophies and contributed many hours to PUSH. Founded on Jan. 24, 1924, the chapter is one of three active chapters in the

The Star & Lamp
state of Tennessee. "We have come a long way," said Lee Ryerson, president of the housing corp. "We need to start thinking about the next 60 years and what can be done to improve the chapter." Some of Alpha Sigma's notable alumni include Howard Baker, former Chief of Staff for Pres. Reagan, and Earl Zwingle, a loyal UT supporter. Alpha Sigma currently has 74 members with 31 of them living in the house on 1828 Fraternity Park.
