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 pa-perwork 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.

New Brotherhood in Atlanta With the largest concentration of alumni in a

metropolitan area, the Greater Atlanta Area Alumni Chapter (GAAAC) has now formed and is looking for new members. GAAAC President Mark Chris­topher C~Z) cordially invites all area alumni to learn more about this new group.

Some tentatively scheduled events include monthly luncheons with speakers, Founder's Day Dinner, Braves/PUSH Night at the ballpark, Stone Mountain Laser Light Show with cookout, network forum, cultural evening (play, symphony, etc.), Chattahoochee rafting trip and an annual golf tour­nament.

Nearly 2,200 Pi Kapps call the Atlanta area their home. If you are interested, please call404-936-9197 for more details.

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.

A very, 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.

Florida receives computer grant

Alpha Epsilon Chapter at the University of Florida received a $15,000 grant from the AE Scholar­ship Fund to expand their in-house data processing center. The money was used to completely upgrade the computer facility to include hardware and software. A new security system was acquired for the special data pro­cessing center in the house.

The new facility offers state of the art data entry, word processing and printing capabilities. The bal­ance in the AE Scholarship Fund ex­ceeds $165,000.

Right: AE Brothers enjoy the new computer in their house.

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 experi­

ence 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

Fraternity to establish for-profit corporation The National Council autho­

rized 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.

Final Thoughts 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

Lessons of Life Arden Anderson II Zeta Lambda-CSU-Chico

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.

I found myself in a meadow, On a dim and old trail.

But few had ever seen. All that the world held,

I found strength in his heart, And comfort in his grip.

It led off into the trees, Was within the grasp of their mind. As the miles fell behind, Of the forest beyond. We talked of many things,

As I gazed down the path, And I learned a man alone, Cannot last a journey through Life. As I passed through,

an archway of trees, I stopped for moment,

A child took my hand, Saying, "Follow me brother, On this journey through Life." The lessons taught to me,

Along that wooded path, From my journey through Life.

Other men had stopped, Within a short while, That child became a man.

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.

60 years of brotherhood

1 6 The Star & Lamp

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

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.

Did you know ... According to the American Council on Education, the current attitudes and characteristics of freshmen are:

17% believe they will join a fraternity 28% believe taxes should be raised 66% believe courts are too lenient on criminals 64% believe abortion is okay 21 % believe the death penalty should be abolished 73% believe being well off financially is essential 69% believe raising a family is essential 62% believe helping others is essential 73% believe in a national health care plan 70% believe education is vital to increase your earning power 22% are politically liberal 54% are middle of the road politically 19% are politically conservative 70% got their first choice of a school
