2 Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006

On the day after Convention, I had the opportunity to visit with Stedman Graham over lunch and to hear him make a presentation to several hundred youth from the Greater Cleveland area. Graham is CEO of Stedman Graham & Partners, a New York-based integrated marketing firm, and Stedman Graham Training & Development, an educational company focused on leadership development. Of course, he is probably best known as Oprah Winfrey’s longtime companion. His presentation, “You Can Make It Happen,” was filled with relevant and practical wisdom for today’s young adults. He talked about Nine Steps to Success, and I found them incredibly relevant not just to an individual, but also to a chapter or to a business. He started by saying that we all have 24 hours in the day, and 99% of us give that time away. Those hours define us. If we can change the way we view the world [or our business environment, our community, our campus, our Greek system], there is nothing we cannot accomplish. The world is a collection of unlimited wealth and resources, and often we limit our potential by staying in our own little circle because of fear. The value you give yourself is directly related to the value other people give you. His first step to success is to Check Your ID. You are what you love, and you should organize the whole world around you. Think about this concept for a Chapter. If you love partying, drinking, skipping class, etc. – well that defines you. If you love having a wellrounded college and Fraternity experience – being social, getting quality grades, doing community service – well that defines you as well. You are what you love. Create Your Vision. What do you see yourself doing in the future? The best way to predict the future is to create it. Then set goals that will lead to that vision. Do you want to be the best? You can be and it is entirely up to you. Develop Your Travel Plan. Identify and prioritize your action plans to achieve your goals. Once you achieve one goal, move on to the next. Never stop growing. Master the Rules of the Road. Be honest. Do the necessary work. Be positive. That

brings people in. Graham says, “If you are not positive, FAKE IT.” Take time to think. Step in to the Outer Limits. Overcome your fears. If you do what you have always done, you will have the same results you have always gotten. You have to change if you want to improve. That is so true on the Chapter level. Pilot the Seasons of Change. You have to be ﬂexible on your road to success. Build Your Dream Team. It all starts with people. No one makes it alone. Get the right people on the bus and the wrong people off. Include people who share your vision, who care about you and believe in your goals. I watched with great interest the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2006 being inducted in my hometown of Canton, Ohio. EVERY single one of them talked about the PEOPLE who helped them get to the steps of that hallowed shrine. Get the right people on the bus and the wrong people off. Does that sound like recruitment? Win by a Decision. The choices you make are based on conscious decisions. You must make good choices in order to be successful. I don’t think there is any organization on a college campus where choices are magniﬁed like they are in the Greek system. You must make good decisions. Finally, Graham says to Commit to Your Vision. Just like a golfer must commit to a swing before he makes it, so must you commit to where you want to be. Stay focused, step outside the box, get up and move, wake up, DO SOMETHING. I found great correlations between these nine steps that Stedman laid out and the success of our Chapters and of Delta Chi as an international organization. Many of you have heard me say many times, IT ALL STARTS WITH PEOPLE. It all starts with you. In the Bond,

THE V FOUNDATION

Delta Chi Partners with

QUICK FACTS...

All undergraduate and alumni members of The Delta Chi Fraternity, Inc. have joined hands in fighting cancer together. On July 26 at the 2006 Delta Chi International Convention held in Cleveland, Ohio, the Fraternity announced that it has partnered with The V Foundation for Cancer Research and named The V Foundation as its preferred charitable organization. More than 500 brothers and guests present at the Convention enthusiastically endorsed the choice. Each year, Delta Chi chapters and colonies raise tens of thousands of dollars for international and local charitable organizations. It is the hope of Delta Chi that if all chapters unite their services and resources to benefit a single organization, Delta Chi can make a great impact on that organization. The V Foundation, named in honor of former basketball coach and cancer victim Jim Valvano, was chosen because of its dedication to saving lives by helping to find a cure for cancer. Because The V Foundation sponsors research and treatments for all forms of cancer, a disease with which almost everyone has a personal connection, a personal relationship will be established with The V Foundation. “Delta Chi is excited and honored to be working with The V Foundation,” said Steve Bossart, “AA”. “Cancer has had an effect on every person’s life in some way. This partnership allows Delta Chi to help lead the fight against cancer.”

•

The V Foundation for Cancer Research was founded in 1993 by ESPN and the late Jim Valvano, legendary NC State basketball coach and ESPN commentator.

•

The V Foundation has raised more than $60 million, used to fund cancer research grants nationwide.

•

100 percent of all new direct cash donations made to The V Foundation are used to fund cancer research and related programs.

•

The Foundation awards grants through a competitive awards process strictly supervised by a Scientiﬁc Review Committee comprised of some of the nation’s top doctors and scientists.

•

The V Foundation has awarded cancer research grants in 36 states and the District of Columbia.

•

The V Foundation awarded nearly $8 million in grants in 2006. These grants fund numerous types of cancer research and were awarded to elite researchers in 15 states.

•

For the fourth consecutive ranking, The V Foundation for Cancer Research has received a top 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, America’s premiere evaluator of charities. In earning Charity Navigator’s highest rating, The V Foundation has demonstrated exceptional financial health, outperforming most of its peers in its efforts to manage and grow its finances in the most fiscally responsible way possible. Only 12 percent of the charities evaluated by Charity Navigator have received at least two consecutive 4-star evaluations.

•

Between 1994 and 2002, The V Foundation awarded 94 V Scholar grants to promising young scientists nationwide in order to help them establish their laboratories. Of those V Scholars, 93 percent have received additional funding and are still working in independent labs. An additional ﬁve percent are currently working in related research.

Efforts by Delta Chi to raise money for The V Foundation will continue this fall. Already, the Fraternity has raised over $15,000 in less than eight months for the ﬁght against cancer. Since 1998, Delta Chi chapters and colonies have contributed more than 223,000 man-hours to community service and have raised more than $1 million for charitable organizations. This new partnership with The V Foundation will allow Delta Chi to focus those efforts towards beneﬁting a single cause and organization. While The V Foundation is the preferred charitable organization, chapters and colonies are still able to raise resources or provide services for any other local or international charitable organization. In fact, chapters may choose to contribute to both a local organization and The V Foundation.

CONVENTION REVIEW

The 55th International Convention Cleveland • July 26-30, 2006

“If someone had bet me that the largest Convention in Delta Chi history would take place in Cleveland, Ohio, I would have taken that bet in a heartbeat,” joked Convention Coordinator Matt Killingsworth, Kansas State ’02. “Turns out I would have lost the bet, and that ended up being a great thing.” The 55th International Convention, held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel City Centre from July 26-30, was attended by more than 300 student members, as well as more than 200 alumni and guests from across North America. The four days of programming, legislation, brotherhood and festivities began with a bang and wrapped up with a big announcement and a big bet.

4 Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006

WEDNESDAY, JULY 26 Awards and a New Philanthropy Wednesday evening kicked off with Patrick Alderdice, Ball State ’92, and Paul Picciani, Connecticut ’89, rocking through nearly 300 programming and individual awards for chapters, colonies and alumni chapters (see pages 12 and 13 for a full list of awards). But the feature of the kick-off was the announcement of The V Foundation for Cancer Research as the new ofﬁcial philanthropic benefactor of Delta Chi. John Leshney, Senior Vice President of Development for The V Foundation, was on hand to accept a $12,000 check from an initial, nine-chapter pilot program. “You (Delta Chi) have great leadership in Steve (Bossart) and your staff. I have had such a great feeling in getting to know the men of

Delta Chi. You have people with vision and purpose, and they are going to help lead the way, with you on this journey, to help ﬁnd the cures,” said Leshney.

THURSDAY, JULY 27 Elections and Ritual A procession of the Board of Regents, past “AA”s and members of the Order of the White Carnation began the ﬁrst general session on Thursday morning. Rich Kruger, Tri-State, called the session to order as “FF”, and Father Anthony Vinson, Northwest Missouri ’98, gave the invocation. Following the invocation, the Convention Chorus led those in attendance in the singing of the Bond Song, and “AA” Steve Bossart, Kent State ’90, led the Convention in the recitation of the Preamble.

CONVENTION REVIEW Executive Director Ray Galbreth, Missouri ’69, recognized attendees based on the number of conventions attended. Jimmie J. “Doc” Underwood, Kansas ’51, was recognized for attending his 22nd Convention, and Fred Hammert, Oklahoma ’60, was recognized for attending the 1956 Convention. The Convention delegates gave a standing ovation for these members’ dedication to Delta Chi. General Session I saw the following legislative items regarding Delta Chi Law pass: a change regarding chapter discipline for ﬁnancial matters, colony establishment and closing, clarifying standing committee

appointments, prohibiting discrimination in membership on the grounds of sexual orientation, and a $5 increase in membership dues effective January 1, 2007. Following the adoption of the legislative items above, nominations were received for Executive Committee positions. Steve Bossart was nominated for “AA”. The nominees for “CC” were Ratheen Damle, Texas ’01; Chris Kilroy, Huntsville ’99; and Miles Washburn, Massachusetts ’87. Nominated for “DD” was Tom Horowitz, Michigan State ’87. The Convention delegates then heard the presentation of the four men to be inducted into the Order of the White Carnation. The delegates unanimously approved the four men. Welcomed into the Order of the White

Carnation were Ed Fusco, Embry-Riddle ’73, Ken Shepard, Long Beach ’77; and posthumously, Charles Hatch, Minnesota ’22, and Jim Price, Eastern Illinois ’74. General Session I came to an end with attendees making a brief dash in the rain, as they headed to take the group photo. Unfortunately, the photo was delayed due to the weather but was taken after lunch, and the delegates then entered Regional Caucuses to discuss the elections of the “AA”, “CC” and “DD”. General Session II saw Steve Bossart re-elected as “AA”, Tom Horowitz elected as “DD”, and Ratheen Damle elected as “CC”. Chuck Mancuso, Florida State ’84, will now assume the role of Retiring “AA”. (Mancuso is

the most immediate past “AA”; he served as “DD” from 2004-2006, immediately following his term as “AA” from 2002-2004.) The Convention delegates also granted Ofﬁcer Emeritus status to four members. New “BB” Emeriti include Ron Montgomery, Oshkosh ’88; Mark Sluss, Missouri State ’87; and Ken Young, Auburn ’69; and posthumously, John J. Kuhn, Cornell ‘98, as “AA” Emeritus. After General Session II, the Convention adjourned for dinner. After a brief recess, the delegates witnessed the Ritual exempliﬁcation, a model rehearsal of the Fraternity’s Ritual, and called to order the third General Session of the day. Greg Hauser, Michigan State ’75, presented the Memorial Resolution in honor of those brothers who had passed away during the

past biennium, and John “Pete” Copeland, Arizona ’49, was selected as Convention Honoree. The Alumni Ceremony ended the long day of events.

FRIDAY, JULY 28 Alumni Recognition and Educational Sessions Educational sessions kicked off Friday morning and included topics such as Goal Setting, History of the Ritual, Managing Change, Dress for Success, How to Impress the Women in Your Life, Risk Management Prevention, Philanthropy Implementation, Alumni Chapter Programming, and Reorganizing Your Chapter. In addition, Delta Chi provided an all-day track of sessions on recruitment called Recruitment 101. During Friday morning and afternoon, attendees could attend the four and one-half hours of presentations directed at improving a chapter’s recruitment process.

Many of Delta Chi’s outstanding alumni and volunteers were recognized during Friday’s Delta Chi Educational Foundation luncheon. A few of the award recipients included John Tunila, Connecticut ’81, in recognition of his 11 years serving as the Educational Foundation’s legal advisor; and Roy Payne, Cornell ’51, as the newest director of the Foundation for his contribution of $700,000 to the Educational Foundation. His donation will be used to refurbish the Cornell Chapter house and keep it in the Brotherhood. Plaques were presented to Paul Bohlman, Ohio State ’70, for reaching the $25,000 lifetime giving level, and Congressman John Mica, Florida ’67, for surpassing multiple giving levels during 2005. In addition, the Outstanding “BB”, Outstanding ABT, Outstanding House Corporation, Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006 5

CONVENTION REVIEW Humanitarian, Valor, Meritorious Service, and Distinguished Delta Chi Awards were handed out (see a complete list of recipients on page 13). To add a bit of Cleveland to the convention experience, attendees enjoyed a Cleveland Indians win against the Seattle Mariners on Friday night. In honor of the Convention being held in Cleveland, Northeast Ohio native and our own Steve Bossart threw out the ﬁrst pitch of the game. A post game ﬁreworks display eneded another exciting convention day.

SATURDAY, JULY 29 The Big Finish On Saturday morning, the educational sessions continued, and alumni volunteers and guests shared their personal and professional experiences with hundreds of attendees in the Advisor Training Program. Other educational sessions included:

Warm Fuzzies, Cold Pricklies; Aﬁcionado; Proper Performance of the Ritual; Battling Mediocrity; Managing Personal and Chapter Money; Alumni Relations; New Member Education; Crisis Management; Academic Success; and Campus Relations and Resources. The Convention just wouldn’t be the same without the etiquette luncheon, “Manners Matter: A Luncheon Like No Other,” hosted by the talented Lorrie Bossart. Sessions on Event Planning, Brand Identity, Facility Management, Regents and Vice-Regents, Self-Assessment and A Business Called Fraternity followed the etiquette luncheon. Saturday evening brought out the largest gathering of brothers and guests at any single Convention in history, more than 6 Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006

550, for the presentation of the Fraternity’s highest awards. Steve Bossart, “AA”, welcomed all in attendance and the Convention Chorus, led by Dr. E. Duane Meyer, Hobart ’58, then sang the United States’ and Canadian national anthems to begin the banquet. The invocation was given by Dr. Ronald Surmacz, Duquesne, and then Bossart invited everyone to enjoy dinner. Following dinner, “Doc” Underwood started the “Handshake Across Time,” a tradition begun by Founder Monroe Marsh Sweetland to bridge future generations of Delta Chis with the Founders through this meaningful and inspiring tradition. During the evening the Fraternity presented its highest awards, starting with the recipients of the 2005 and 2006 Outstanding Greek Life Professional awards to Dr. Roy Baker, Associate Dean of Students at Syracuse University, and Kurt Foriska, Senior Director of Greek Life at The Ohio

State University, respectively. Steve Michels, Marquette ’87, was also honored as the Fraternity’s most recent New Founder for his combined donations to the Fraternity and Educational Foundation exceeding $100,000. Congressman John Mica was again honored, but this time as the 2005 Delta Chi of the Year recipient for his political successes. And, James Stewart, DePauw ’73, was honored as the 2006 Delta Chi of the Year recipient. Stewart is the current Editor-at-Large for Smart Money Magazine and contributing columnist for The New Yorker Yorker. Ed King of Sigma Chi Fraternity was awarded the John J. Kuhn Award for outstanding service to the interfraternal movement. The President’s Cup, the highest chapter award given by the Fraternity, was awarded to the chapters at Georgia Tech,

Kansas, Miami (OH), and Louisiana Tech. The President’s Most Improved Trophy is given to the chapter with the most notable improvement over the past academic year and was awarded to the Arizona Chapter. Ray Galbreth, Executive Director, recognized Matt Killingsworth, Convention Coordinator, for an exceptional job in planning the Convention. And then, Matt announced the site of the 2008 Convention: Las Vegas. Along with the Las Vegas location, alumni and undergraduates from a variety of chapters are now part of a “big bet,” challenging brothers and guests from 2006 to bring their souvenir poker chips with them to the 2008 Convention. For each chip returned, the “big bet” members will make a donation. Half of the donations will go to the Fraternity’s general fund and the other half to the Delta Chi Educational Foundation general fund. (For more on the “big bet”, visit the Convention website,

www.deltachiconvention.org.) As a surprise for all in attendance, Matt arranged for an early viewing of the trailer to the movie The Guardian in which Kevin Costner, Fullerton ’77, and Ashton Kutcher, Iowa ’00, both star. The Convention came to a close with Greg Hauser administering the oath and swearing in the three new International Ofﬁcers. Steve addressed the attendees with his closing remarks and encouraged everyone to attend the 2008 Convention in Las Vegas. The evening ended with the singing of the Bond Song and the ofﬁcial adjournment of the 55th Convention.

One that is considered very private and is often esoteric. I am the fraternity ritual. One that you will find locked in a file in the corner of some dark office. Because I don’t get used or opened up very often, I have a lot of time to think and I’d like to share with you some of my thoughts. Sometimes, I go through a real identity crisis. Who am I? What am I? In order to know what a thing is, you must first know what it is for. You tell what a thing is for by the way it is used.” Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006 9

Delta Chi | Quarterly | Fall/Winter 2006 11

2005-2006 AWARD WINNERS The Delta Chi Awards Program is designed to recognize and promote those areas that are critical to the success of the chapter. The “E” Key, the Fraternity’s oldest award, and the Marge Lee Outstanding “C” Award recognize the performance of two vital chapter ofﬁcers. For the other awards, the Fraternity is divided into two divisions: Red and Buff. The Red Division contains those chapters with 15 or more fraternities on their campuses or whose Greek systems have over 30 percent of the undergraduate student body. The remaining chapters make up the Buff Division. In recognition of the chapter’s performance on campus and within the community, the Outstanding Campus Leadership, Outstanding Community Service Program, Outstanding Intramural Program, Outstanding Membership Recruitment Program, Outstanding Scholarship Program, Outstanding Financial Management, Outstanding Website, and Outstanding Ritual and Ceremonies Awards were presented. In addition, alumni chapters were recognized for outstanding performance in the following areas: Outstanding Communication Program, Outstanding Recruitment and Retention, and Outstanding Website. These awards address the important alumni programming areas of a chapter: the Outstanding Alumni Board of Trustees, Outstanding Alumni Newsletter, Outstanding “BB” Awards, Outstanding House Corporation, and Outstanding Faculty Advisor. Chapters that have shown a marked improvement in their overall operations are given the Certiﬁcate of Achievement. The “AA” selects the winner of the Most Improved Chapter from the recipients of this award. The winners of the Award of Excellence show strength across the board. In most cases they are winners of several awards. When they are not, they show above average performance in all areas with no area of weakness. From the recipients of the Award of Excellence, the “AA” selects the President’s Cup winners. There is a maximum of three Cups in each Division.

CHAPTER SITUATIONS A reporter once asked former Green Bay Packers Football coach, Vince Lombardi, if he thought his great teams of the 1960s could compete with today’s teams with complex offenses and defenses. He smugly replied that the team that best executed the fundamentals would win the game. There is very little doubt about which team he thought that would be. When the Fraternity was established 116 years ago, the Founders created a set of core values to guide future members in their absence. The Fraternity’s core values are to Delta Chi as run, block, and tackle are to football. Unfortunately, too many of the Fraternity’s current members believe that the core values are no longer relevant. Consequently, our undergraduate members face a bewildering array of charges that include hazing, alcohol and drug abuse, antiintellectualism, and sexist and racist behavior. Quite often our chapter officers have two choices when dealing with behavior issues. The first is to take the popular stance; to avoid confrontation and simply “go with the flow.” This is the politically sensitive position, to always follow the majority opinion regardless of the consequences and then to shrug and say, “Hey, the brothers voted—what could I do?” The second choice, sometimes far more difficult, is to remember the core values and to do the right thing. Sometimes this means making a decision that is unpopular. Sometimes this means making a decision that runs counter to the feelings of a majority of members. Sometimes this means making a decision that only a few support, or that a loud, vocal minority will decry as “dictatorial” and even “unbrotherly.” It isn’t easy and it isn’t always fun. Fortunately, doing the right thing doesn’t always mean acting in a way that runs counter to the majority. It doesn’t mean fights or arguments. Sometimes, it can be done in a quiet, calm manner and even one brother at a time. The important thing is to remember the core values and do the right thing, for regardless of cultural differences between 1890 and 2006, if Delta Chi members make decisions consistent with the Fraternity’s core values, the Fraternity will be successful. And it will be good for the members involved. Once it is known that chapter leadership will stand up against inappropriate behavior and not effectively condone it through inaction and

avoidance, the membership will quickly come to the realization that Delta Chi does stand for something of value. No longer will a small minority be able to hide their inappropriate behavior behind the false claim of “brotherhood.” Besides the guidelines set forth on the facing page (which are repeated in every fall/winter issue of the Quarterly; reviewed during chapter visits, at the Convention and at each Regional Leadership Conference; appear in the Cornerstone; and are sent to countless officers and advisors each year), the Fraternity provides “The Party Continues” (a booklet with over 100 social event ideas), “Building Better Brotherhood” (a booklet with 58 brotherhood events), a Pre-Initiation BRIEF (with 38 different activities from which to choose), and a New Member Education BRIEF (which outlines a model Associate Member Program). And yet, we still hear, “You only tell us what we can’t do and never tell us what we can do.” Despite Delta Chi’s continuing efforts to educate its membership on sound risk management practices that would help ensure the safety of our members and guests, we continue to have chapters and individual members take risks that put people and Delta Chi in jeopardy. It boils down to personal responsibility and a commitment to the fundamental values we are all sworn to uphold. What follows is a list of chapters that are on Corrective Action for violation of the Risk Management Policy as of November 15, 2006. That is not to say the chapters on the following list are “bad” chapters. Likewise, it is unrealistic to assume that chapters that are not on this list are complying with every policy. The bottom line of this issue is that members of the Fraternity are engaging in dangerous activities and taking unnecessary risks with their future and the future of Delta Chi because they believe this will help fill voids where their needs are not being met. Whatever the case, the solution remains the same. Each and every chapter needs the involvement of mature alumni who can help the Fraternity’s student members discover that there are alternatives that can meet both their long and short-term needs. Finally, each and every member of Delta Chi needs to periodically reflect on Delta Chi’s values as contained in our Preamble: Promote Friendship, Develop Character, Advance Justice, and Assist in the Acquisition of a Sound Education.

CORRECTIVE ACTION LEVELS Level 1 – Level 1 Corrective Action shall include, but is not limited to, ordering that the Chapter cease and desist from the conduct in the future and be in accordance with the requirements of Delta Chi Law and the Risk Management Policy of the Fraternity. The Chapter shall be required to submit to the Executive Director a written statement that all prohibited conduct has been stopped. The statement shall be signed by the “A”, “BB” and such other members of the Chapter, as speciﬁed in the report, that were involved with or had supervision over the conduct in the violation. Level 2 – Level 2 Corrective Action shall include, but is not limited to, all provisions of Level 1, plus the Chapter shall submit a written plan of procedures and/or activities that comply with the Fraternity’s Risk Management Policy covering the activities in the violation. The plan shall be updated at least twice per year for the period of corrective action.
