Perception is Reality…

Image. What is the image of Delta Chi and the Greek Community where you live and go to school? Perception is reality, whether we like it or not. We are our own stereotypes, and only we can change them.

What are we doing for the local community and campus? Sure we raise funds for The V Foundation for Cancer Research. In fact we have raised over $650,000, to date, for this important charity. It is safe to say that we are getting better at fundraising for our International Philanthropy. Imagine the funds Delta Chi could raise if every chapter, colony and alumni chapter participated by holding events that benefitted The V Foundation. It would be very impressive if we could hit the $1,000,000 mark for the 2016 convention.

In order for us to achieve this, everyone will need to participate.

But that didn’t answer the question I just asked. What are we doing for our local community and campus? Several chapters participate in events for local charities, but how are we impacting our local communities?

Are we simply meeting the requirements to win awards, or are we truly upholding our obligation as Delta Chi brothers to make the campus and community a better place to live? Remember, perception is reality. If we are doing these actions for the wrong reasons, it will show.

Imagine if people in our respective communities saw Delta Chi brothers working

to make the community better, perhaps at a street cleanup, food drive, senior center or homeless shelter. Your campus is part of your larger community. It is where you live nine months each year. We should want to make the community we live in better. We should want to help others who are less fortunate.

The image of Delta Chi and the Greek community as a whole would be improved if we would get more involved in our communities and campus. Partner with another Greek organization, or better yet, a non-Greek organization. Show the public that we are not different from them. Show the public that we care about the campus and community and want to be involved. Show the public that your Greek community is not what is portrayed in the movies, television and the media.

When your chapter, undergraduate or alumnus, organizes or participates in a campus or community service event, notify the local media. Ask them to cover the event so that more people see the impact your members are making. The positive media coverage will help change the image or perception of Delta Chi and the Greek Community in the public eye.

Wear your letters when you are working in the community or on campus. When you wear your letters you must remember that no matter what you do, your actions will reflect not only on yourself, but on all of Delta Chi and the Greek community as a whole. You single-handedly can make Delta Chi look great, or not so great, through your actions, language, and appearance. Again, perception is reality, whether you like it or not.

Let’s spend some time focusing on our campus and community in the future.

Let’s continue to work hard to reach the $1,000,000 mark for funds raised for our International Philanthropy, The V Foundation for Cancer Research. Let’s continue to work on the image of the Greek community and Delta Chi. Let’s live like we are wearing our letters every day no matter what we are doing.

DELTA CHI QUARTERLY

Miles Washburn, “AA” Massachusetts ’87 52nd “AA” New Founder Life Loyal Member

Dave Zuchowski

President/CEO at Hyundai Motor America

DAVE ZUCHOWSKI When Dave Zuchowski arrived at The University of Washington and moved his belongings into the Delta Chi house his freshman year, he couldn’t imagine that approximately 30 years later he’d serve as CEO of one of the largest automobile companies in North America. In fact, his brother was the car guy growing up.

As a freshman, Zuchowski quickly realized that being successful in life would require learning balance, something Delta Chi, and living in the house, taught him.

“Like most incoming freshmen, I had a great time and was enjoying the freedom of being away from home for the first time,” Zuchowski shared.

However, my grades suffered.” Zuchowski credits Delta Chi in greatly assisting him with is maturation process, helping him learn the importance of balance.

“I didn’t want to squander my time there. My second quarter was so different.

I didn’t skip class; I didn’t try to just get by with as little effort as possible.

I quickly realized that it wasn’t about being the smartest person in the room. Rather, it was about being the one who applies themselves most and works the hardest. Very early on, Delta Chi probably helped me more than anything else in learning that there is no time to be wasted. Life is short, and you really have to take advantage of it and not waste a moment.” “[Delta Chi] was my first real involvement in an organized structure of living together and working closely with peers,” said Zuchowski. “What you learn as a freshman in college really lives with you for the rest of your life. You get a bunch of guys together, and you have to figure out a way to work together and collaborate. Whether it’s family, business, school, or fraternity, it’s all about relationships. The fraternity experience helped me understand that, and it helped me develop the skills required to manage relationships throughout my career.”

Zuchowski grew as a student in the University of Washington’s School of Communications, and soon found himself interviewing for jobs after graduation.

“Everybody thinks you go to school and know exactly what you want to do.

Then, you just follow that path. I think that applies to maybe five percent of people. Most people don’t know, and I sure didn’t know,” Zuchowski admitted.

Zuchowski’s brother called and asked him if he had considered sending his resumé to Ford.

“I didn’t have an automotive background. While I was out participating in sports, my brother was working on cars in the garage,” shared Zuchowski.

When he expressed hesitation, his brother interjected, “It’s just selling.

You can sell. Whether you’re selling laundry detergent, soap, or cars, it doesn’t much matter. You’d be good at it.”

Zuchowski sent his resumé, and Ford was his first interview after graduation.

He got the job as a Sales Associate within the manufacturing side of the Ford Motor Company, and he began his career in the automotive industry amid a hiring freeze and difficult economic times.

“It’s been very interesting, and I can honestly say that in 34 years I have never once been bored with the business,” Zuchowski shared.

Zuchowski’s first job with Ford meant that he was responsible for making sure dealerships were well-run, well-capitalized, advertised credibly, and carried appropriate inventory levels.

“I dealt with very independent thinkers, which was great,” Zuchowski reflected. “I learned over time that every coin has three sides: your side, my side, and somewhere in between is the right side. Fraternity life also helped me develop this art of compromise.”

Zuchowski remained with Ford for 23 years, as he made a name for himself as a hard working, dynamic leader.

“I always said that with any position I was ever assigned to, I wanted the job to be materially better on the day I moved on than it was when I arrived,” Zuchowski shared. “And I want anybody who worked for me in

Cover Story that position to say, ‘Boy, I’d work for that guy again in a heartbeat.’ If you’ve done that - and it doesn’t matter which company you’re in - you would have been successful. You would have built an army of loyal folks who respect you because you take the time to teach them what to do. You delegate authority, and you hold them responsible, but you also provide them with the resources needed to be accountable.”

Zuchowski made the jump to Mazda North America, based out of Irvine, CA, in 2003 to serve as Vice President Sales. There he gained valuable experience leading the sales arm of the major automobile manufacturer.

In 2007, Zuchowski made another critical move and accepted a role as Vice President of Sales for Hyundai Motor America. Then, in 2010, he was promoted to Executive Vice President of Sales. In this role, Zuchowski oversaw all sales, sales operations, market representation, field operations, and overall dealer operations.

“Dave has consistently distinguished himself as a results-oriented and motivational leader in our industry,” said Im Tak Un, Chief Operating Officer of the Hyundai Motor Company. “During his time at Hyundai, Dave has been instrumental in our growth, especially among our dealers.

He exhibits a rare combination of passion, intelligence, creativity and diligence, and we are confident that he is the right choice to build on John’s momentum and take Hyundai to new and greater heights.”

On December 27, 2013, Hyundai Motor America announced that Zuchowski would assume the position of President of CEO effective January 1, 2014. Under CEO John Krafcik’s tenure with the automaker, Hyundai Motor America experienced dramatic increases in sales volume and market share, while garnering numerous prestigious industry awards.

“It’s been a sincere privilege and honor to lead Hyundai Motor America over the past five years, and I am confident that with Dave’s succession, our brand will continue to expand and thrive for years to come,” said Krafcik in the company’s official press release. “We have many of the best and brightest employees in the business coupled with a committed and talented dealer network that will continue to pay dividends.”

“My first reaction was ‘Wow,’” shared Zuchowski.

“It happened so quickly. Obviously, when you attain something you’ve work for your entire life, there is definitely a feeling of accomplishment.

I received a lot of very positive reactions from employees and dealers about my ability to take Hyundai to the next level, and that’s very nice to hear. But there’s also a tremendous responsibility and pressure with people counting on me that goes along with that.”

Zuchowski knew that it would be critical to make an impact in his new role within the first three months.

“The very first thing I did after Christmas 4

DELTA CHI QUARTERLY

vacation was to hold a town hall meeting with all of our employees, including all remote regional locations,” recalled Zuchowski. “I stood in front of everyone, unscripted, and explained who I was, what was important to me, and my vision of where we needed to take Hyundai. After this, I wanted to make sure I was visible in all functional areas. I spent a lot of time having lunches and face-to-face time with different departments, and I’ve also spent a lot of time traveling, getting to know the key players in our organization who, previously, I might not have spent a lot of time with.”

Hyundai Group, headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, is a global, vertically integrated company.

This means that Hyundai Group owns companies in each aspect of the car manufacturing business: manufacturing, logistics, finance, parts, technology, and sales/marketing, which Zuchowski leads. Because of this, Zuchowski also needed to build relationships with the Presidents of each other subsidiary company.

“I spent a lot of time making sure these affiliate companies shared our same goals and objectives. Hyundai is a huge company, and we need to make sure we aren’t working against one another in trying to reach our common goals,” Zuchowski explained.

When The Quarterly spoke with Zuchowski, he was nearing the end of his first 90 days as CEO. “I set a goal that at 90 days, I needed to develop these relationships externally that I didn’t have before. Then, I needed to make sure that everybody within my direct organization had a clear understanding of what I wanted, what we needed to do this year, and how we needed to get there. Communication was key. If you don’t do that right away, it just never gets done. So, while it’s difficult - it requires constant travel and meetings - it’s very important to establish that foundation.”

As an incoming CEO, Zuchowski was also cognizant of not interrupting the success Hyundai Motor America currently enjoys as one of the top companies in its industry.

“

“One thing that’s very dangerous is change for the sake of change,” warned Zuchowski. “It can be counterproductive, particularly when you have an effective and highly-functioning group. It really comes down to how different I am from my predecessor, how that affects our [team in their lives], and how we can collectively take this company to the next level.”

What’s It Like?

Zuchowski’s work ethic and daily schedule is what has allowed him to accomplish his initial goals while also staying on top of routine aspects of his job.

“I’ve always been, ever since day one, a very early riser. So, I’m usually in the office by about 6:00 am. I’ve found that I can get about four hours of work done in two hours before the phone starts ringing. I usually spend those two hours going through email and mail, catching up on phone calls for the East Coast, and planning my day.

I get a minimum of 250 emails each day, 20-30 voicemails, and 30 text messages on average. We have a dealer network with about 825 dealers across the country, and a lot of my time is also spent on the phone with them.

I also get 10-15 customer letters each day.

Some are complimentary, but most are final recourse when customers aren’t happy with their dealer experience. I try to be personally involved in that as much as I can, and that’s very time consuming. Overall, the volume is overwhelming. I try to touch as much of it as I can, but once it gets to be 8:00 or 8:30 am, I’m in meetings more often than not. I try to leave the office by 6:30 pm, so I typically have a 12-hour day.”

Zuchowski brought with him a strategy to improve the effectiveness of the company’s meetings, one of the biggest areas in which he spends his time.

“There’s a lot of meetings. I’d like to say we can fix that, but it’s a big company and sometimes the only way to accomplish something is to

Very early on, Delta Chi probably helped me more than anything else in learning that there is no time

to be wasted. Life is short, and you really have to take advantage of it and not waste a moment.

Dave Zuchowski bring a lot of people together. I’ve tried to eliminate meetings for the sake of meetings.

I try to make sure we have a clear objective for each meeting - What are we here for? What decision do we need to make before the end of the meeting?

to do before bed is to clear out my email from the day, but I will wake up with 35 emails that came in overnight from Korea. So, it starts right away.”

“Another thing that happens is that people tend to stream into meetings late. If we have a 9:00 meeting and I show up at 9:05, what message does that send to everyone else. If I’m there at 9:00 and people are stumbling in after me, that also sends a bad message. So, our meetings start right on time, and I try to be religious about it.”

When Zuchowski isn’t in a meeting or on the phone, he’s not just sitting back with his feet up.

Many of Zuchowski’s daily meetings are problemsolving in nature, with various division heads seeking help and collaboration with issues they’re facing.

“A couple of times each week, we’ll go over to our design center near the office to do product reviews. We’ll also run over to our ad agency to provide input on what we like, what we don’t like, and what we need to change or scrap.

We have to make production decisions - do we add overtime and weekend production? Is there enough demand to meet production, or do we need to cut back on production? We have weekly meetings on that. We also have financial reviews. It’s a pretty complex business, and there’s necessarily an awful lot of meetings.”

Zuchowski also tackled the issue of technology serving as a distraction during meetings.

“A personal pet peeve of mine was when you’d go into meetings and people would be looking at their tablets or smartphones. People were only half paying attention as they caught up on their email. I put a stop to it and said ‘We’re in this meeting to discuss something and reach an outcome, and we can’t have that if you guys are only paying half attention. So, either don’t bring them in with you, or don’t look at them when we’re in here. We have to stay focused.’”

“At the end of each day, you wonder ‘Did I get anything done?’ It just flies by, and you move on. There’s always fresh issues coming up every day. There’s crises, manufacturing problems, sales problems, marketing issues, and product decisions to be made over and over.”

Zuchowski notes that, at the end of the day, the goal is to cut through tasks and activities that aren’t value-added.

“When we finish an hour meeting and add up the collective salary of the people in that meeting, that’s a pretty significant investment of the company’s resources. Did we get anything out of it? If we didn’t, can we do better next time? We have to try to cut down on all the paperwork and all the bureaucracy that just seemingly continues to increase.

And, technology hasn’t helped that. It’s actually made it worse. Since Korea is 17 hours ahead of us, I’ve got emails accumulating in my inbox when I’m at home in bed. The last thing I try

Leadership

“I spend a lot of my time practicing management by walking around. It’s one of the great principles of good leaders. You stick your head into offices. You walk by cubicles and ask people what’s going on. You stay engaged with them that way, and the benefits from that are just absolutely incredible.

You can’t understand the barriers to success without understanding operationally how the business runs, so you really need to stay fully involved in it.”

On the topic of management, Zuchowski shares the absolute necessity of learning to steer projects and manage individuals, as opposed to taking on projects, when at the CEO level.

“I need to give [my team] direction and the tools to get us where we want to go, but they need to execute it. I spend more of my time massaging and tweaking as opposed to actually ‘doing stuff’. That’s been difficult for me, because my instinct is to jump in, roll up my sleeves, and just get it done. You learn very quickly that there are not enough hours in the day to do that. Also, when a President or CEO jumps in too quickly, he tends to step on peoples’ toes. So I’ve consciously had to hold myself back from doing that, and I’ve made a very conscious effort to walk around, stay visible, delegate, and continually deliver a consistent, clear vision.

The most important thing you can do in any organization - really at any level, but particularly at my level - is to have a very, very clear vision that is easily understandable at the lowest common denominator. Then, be consistent with the communication of that message so that when you speak with anyone in the organization, you’re talking about what’s key to the business plan this year and how we intend to get there.

You want to be able to boil it down to a brief ‘water cooler chat.’ When everyone shares the vision, it’s easy to have a dialogue about the vision - and communication is everything.

GOLF, GREAT BOOKS & WHEELS Q: When you’re not in the office and you do find yourself with free time, what do you like to do?

“I always thought golf was for old people.

What nobody tells you when you’re young is that you can’t play baseball, basketball, and football all your life. Golf is a lifetime sport, and it’s a great way to develop business relationships. It’s also a great way to judge the character of people. When I can, I carry my bag and walk the course - it’s great exercise.”

Q: What other hobbies do you enjoy?

“I’m a big reader. Generally, I’m a book-aweek type of guy, and I’ll go back and forth between historical and fiction. Lately, I’ve been reading Alex Berenson, David McCollough, Michael Connelly, and Bill O’Reilly.”

“I’m also a fair-weather Harley guy. I’ll ride it not in the rain, and generally not at night, but it’s a nice way for me to just get a release. I’ve got a couple pals, and we’ll go out on the weekend for a ride.”

Q: What are you driving?

“Obviously, I’m driving Hyundais. I drive an Equus, our top-of-the-line flagship sedan, and it’s really a phenomenal vehicle. My wife drives a Hyundai Santa Fe, and my kids are all driving Hyundais. Right now is a great time for anybody to buy a vehicle. The quality is really high, and the designs have been really, really attractive lately.

In most poorly functioning organizations, there is poor, ineffective communication. People don’t know what is expected of them or understand what the objectives of the business are.

Therefore, they don’t understand what they’re working towards.

If you can get people aligned and get integration across all different functions, then you’re able to make a lot of progress. I’ve been successful in doing that throughout my career, and it’s even more important now when it’s my vision.”

Darrell McTague XXX

‘BIG BROTHER’ TURNED ‘FIT BROTHER’

Darrell McTague, Massachusetts ’11

There’s no denying it – health and physical fitness are a challenge for many today. It’s easy to see why when one considers just how much of an impact “dollar menus” and the rise of the digital age have had on our culture. On the whole, we simply just don’t eat as healthily or get as much physical activity as we should. As a result, the obesity epidemic in the United States is a real issue in so many of our members’ and their families’ lives.

One brother chose to fight back, and his story is inspiring.

This time, however, Darrell rejected the notion that he was destined to be a ‘big guy.’

“I was fed up, and I reached a breaking point. I couldn’t deal with it anymore.

I was just so unhappy and embarrassed with myself. I hated how I looked in the mirror and had fat chipmunk cheeks. One day I even noticed my face was so fat my cheeks were beginning to bulge in towards my mouth…I couldn’t take it anymore.”

While unfortunate that he had to reach a breaking point, it was the stressor that was necessary for Brother McTague to take the plunge and commit to making

175 lbs

“When this all started, I was a big guy, and I had been a big guy for as long as I could remember. I had resigned myself to my fate – forever remaining a big guy. I wasn’t happy about it but I didn’t think I could really do anything about it,” said McTague.

During his senior year of high school, Darrell first realized that his actions directly affected his personal health. Darrell lost 75 lbs through a combination of team sports and proper diet.

“I wasn’t completely happy even then. I was 210 lbs and I told people I was 205. When you’re lying about your weight like that, you know you’re not happy.

I had made such strides - I thought I’d reached the mountaintop. So, I decided to just try to be happy with where I’d gotten.”

Unfortunately, Darrell was unable to find the balance needed to maintain his healthy weight within a year of graduating high school. He gained it all back and more - reaching just over 300 lbs.

“I was really successful with Weight Watchers before attending UMass. But once I got there, I couldn’t translate dining hall food to ‘points,’ and I couldn’t find a Weight Watcher meeting that fit my schedule. I fell off. All my old habits came back! I ate like a pig; I ordered pizza and wings late night; I didn’t exercise.

It was a recipe for disaster.”

DELTA CHI QUARTERLY

a change, once and for all. He and his fiancée, Megan, had a discussion and made a decision. After getting home from the 2012 International Convention in Pittsburgh, they began P90X, an at-home DVD workout program. At the time, he had no idea that this seemingly simple decision would lead to a chain of events that would change his life forever.

“Every day during the first week’s workouts, we’d look at each other and highfive. It was another success. When we finished the last workout of the first week we knew that if we could do week one, we could do the whole program.

It wasn’t going to get any harder.”

And so they did. They completed P90X 3 months later, and Darrell lost 45 lbs and inches off his waist.

“I felt great, but I knew I could go farther…do more…better. I was ready for the next step.”

Darrell and Megan began INSANITY, another popular DVD at-home workout program from the same company responsible for P90X. They experienced similar results.

“We knew we could keep going. We knew we had a lot of ground to cover and years of unhealthy decisions to make up for. Together, we were up for the challenge.”

Massachusetts ’11 Along the way, something unexpected happened. On March 23rd, 2013 he and Megan decided to do something they had never done before…go for a run.

“We ended up running 3.2 miles that day. Our first time ever ‘going for a run’, and it was a 5K! Afterwards, I went and found an actual 5K to register for – I knew I could do it.”

Darrell did indeed find a 5K to register for and performed better than he could have expected. He went on to run his first 10K that July, and his first halfmarathon just three months later.

“I wanted to see just how far I could go. I had always thought running just wasn’t in the cards - I couldn’t do it. After the half-marathon, I knew the game had changed.”

Darrell gained a new perspective from his experience running – one that would stick with him throughout the rest of his journey.

“The human body is an incredible thing. I now firmly believe that given time and training, anything is possible. Your body will do whatever you ask it as long as you reciprocate and give it the fuel, training, and the rest it requires.”

“

and body fat percentage. I’m even a sponsored athlete now! I can’t believe how far I’ve come, and now I want to help others achieve the same thing especially those who were in my shoes: people who just don’t think it’s ever going to happen.”

As a sponsored athlete, Darrell competes in over 35 races each year.

“I’m running 5K’s, 10K’s, half-marathons and obstacle course races of different lengths. Some weekends I have one, even two, events. Some are spaced apart and some are very close. I want to show people that it can be done. I hope it inspires anyone to get out there and try one for themselves.”

Brother McTague went a step further – he became a BeachBody coach.

“I became a BeachBody Coach to help people work through the same programs that brought me my own success. I saw it as a way to have a direct impact on peoples’ health and fitness rather than just inspiring others to do it on their own. It’s so rewarding to know you played a part in helping people reach goals they thought were never possible.“ The complete story of Darrell’s journey from ‘big brother’ to a ‘fit brother’ is

”

I felt great, but I knew I could go farther…do

more…better. I was ready for the next step.

The most rewarding part of the journey came at a major milestone. After ten months of his new fitness routine, Darrell had lost a staggering 100 lbs.

“I had been posting my before and after pictures after every program we completed. Once I broke 100 lbs, people started messaging me.”

Unbeknownst to him, many had been quietly following Darrell’s progress. At the culmination of this major milestone, a number of people reached out to him to express how impressed and inspired they were. Many were so moved that they had gained the confidence necessary to begin their own fitness journey.

“It was inspiring and motivating to think that my progress and hard work made an impact and encouraged others to do the same thing. I had to keep going.”

Darrell’s goal quickly changed focus.

“After a year and a half I’ve reached a point where I’m truly happy. I’m floating between 175 lbs and 180 lbs. I’ve gone from a 48 inch waist to a 30.5 inch waist, and my doctors are classifying me as an athlete based on my heart rate

chronicled on his website – www.SoTHISIsFitness.com. His website also hosts before/after photos from each of the fitness programs he’s completed, recap articles of the races he runs, product reviews designed to help guide others to helpful tools for their journey as well as articles on a range of topics.

“All of the content of my site is designed to help others reach their goals.

When I created the site, I wanted it to be everything I had wished someone had told me when I was first starting out. I’m very fortunate that it has turned into so much more.”

You can also find Darrell on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/SoTHISIsFitness as well as Twitter and Instagram at @SnuffyDX. He can be reached via email at Darrell@SoTHISIsFitness.com. Darrell currently serves Delta Chi as the “BB’ of the Massachusetts Chapter, “A” of the Boston Area Alumni Chapter and Vice-Regent of Region VII. We look forward to seeing what Brother McTague will tackle next.

Our chapter experienced a year filled with change. Our brothers spent the 2013-14 school year in a temporary house while our chapter house underwent a major renovation/expansion project. We’ve seen continued recruitment success, with 40 men recruited this year, and we anticipate additional momentum as we begin fall recruitment. Brothers have already filled all 34 bedrooms for the 2014-15 school year. Our chapter also received the Regent’s Cup at Region VIII’s RLC this spring. Brothers also participated in a Black Warrior River cleanup and several philanthropy events. We’d like to invite our alumni and fellow brothers to stop by and tour our newly renovated house this fall.

In February, we hosted a “Valentines for Valvano” philanthropy, and this event saw a large turnout. We also held our annual casino night for our parents and active brothers. This year, we organized the event to allow for more alumni participation, and this was a fantastic decision. Brothers were able to get to know our alumni in a more laid back atmosphere. We hope to grow participation in this event in the future.

Conor O’Brien ’15 “E” Our spring semester included philanthropy, community service, a growth in manpower, and a considerable boost in alumni outreach. One highlight was our ongoing support of The V Foundation. Through efforts on campus and in the community, we raised almost $1,000. “A” Andrew Seibt ’16 was nominated for Chapter President of the Year at the Bowling Green Fraternity and Sorority Life’s Greek Weekend award ceremony. Our chapter also received the Outstanding Recruitment Award for our sixteen associate members in the fall and eight in the spring. We’re also looking forward to the future, as current Greek housing is being torn down in preparation for a new Greek Village. Our current active members have raised nearly $10,000 towards this opportunity, and we’re excited about the investment we’re making for our future brothers.

After a mid-semester recruitment effort, we’re looking forward to initiating our newest associate members. We’re also excited to initiate our Faculty Advisor Dean of Undergraduate Studies Jeffrey Wolcowitz. Our philanthropy committee exceeded our two-year goal of fundraising for The V Foundation, and we’re looking forward to more ambitious goals in the future. Our Greek Week team raised the bar this year, besting many past teams and bringing home second in Rope Pull. Our executive board is focused this summer on a plan for the upcoming semester to find new ways to strengthen our brotherhood.

In April, we hosted a BBQ at the Chapter House and invited local Fire, Police, Emergency Service Personnel, University Administration, and City and County Officials. The BBQ was a great opportunity for our brothers to interact with campus and community leaders. It was also an opportunity for the Chapter to showcase its many successes and show that the Chapter is an integral part of the San Luis Obispo community. Numerous individuals from departments in the city and county stopped by the house, and on-duty personnel had food delivered to their house. The event was a success and was enjoyed by all.

We recruited and initiated five men as part of our Nu associate member class.

Homecoming 2014 was very successful. We built a float with the women of Zeta Tau Alpha, and two brothers received recognition during halftime at the football game. David Norris ’14 won ‘King,’ and Chuck Saunders ’15 won ‘Duke.’ During Greek Week, we won first place in volleyball, Greek trivia, and penny ways. We also won second place in dodgeball. These victories led to our brothers bringing home first place overall during Greek Week. We raised over $2,800 for The V Foundation during our 3rd annual “Ducking Out Cancer” and 12th bi-annual “Don’t Drop The Ball” events. The “Buff” team took the victory for the third straight year at our infamous “Braveheart” brotherhood event.

Also, the “red” team defeated the “turquoise” team at our “Paint Wars” mixer with Zeta Tau Alpha. Brothers also organized several other events, including a kickball game, dinner at Peter Piper Pizza, BIG Edge event, a movie date party, and a traditional brotherhood retreat.

This year over fifty parents, siblings, grandparents and other family members joined the brotherhood for a weekend packed with events. On Friday, we hosted a reception at the house to welcome our family members to Ithaca. Everyone had a great time getting to know their friends’ parents, sharing stories, and discussing the weekend ahead. Festivities continued Saturday with an outdoor barbecue overlooking beautiful Cayuga Lake on the chapter house’s porch. On Saturday night everybody donned formal attire for the 8th Annual Parents Weekend Red & Buff dinner catered by a Culinary Institute of America grad and current Cornell student.

Even before our initiation, we’ve been hard at work to establish ourselves within the campus community. We hosted a DJ battle to benefit United Way, hosted a cornhole tournament to benefit The V Foundation, and we raised over $700 for a brother’s friend who had been recently diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome. We’re looking forward to building our presence on campus even more in the coming semesters.

The house has four bedrooms with a large fifth room for meeting space. Our “F”, Recruitment Chairman, and two active members currently live in the house, and we now have a place to hold all of our awards and our composite. Our plan is to use this house for recruitment events and house tours until a traditional fraternity house, or space to build, opens up.

Zach Stroth ’15 currently serves as the Mortar Board National Senior Honorary President, and Kyle Mayer ’16 was selected to join the Chimes Junior Honorary Society. Additionally, Michael Kennedy ’14, Carl Bowden ’14, Andrew Woolley ’15, and Mike Stanton all serve as SGA Senators.

Brothers from the Illinois State Chapter helped in welcoming our Spring 2014 initiates.

Our colony’s 23 Founding Fathers hit the ground running on Halloween by assisting with the Boys and Girls Club of Madison’s “Trick or Treat with the Greeks,” which provides a fun and safe experience for the children of Madison, WI. A few weeks later, we held a successful overnight retreat at the Wilderness Resort in the Wisconsin Dells. This spring, we planned two events to benefit The V Foundation: a fundraising night at Buffalo Wild Wings and our first Earth Ball event. We raised over $1,000 through both events. Our brothers also placed fourth overall during Greek Week. We also hosted our first annual alumni golf outing in May to show our appreciation for our alumni, especially ABT President Dave Gault ’81, Mike Covey ’92, and Alan Udell ’91. With our colony moving into a house on ‘Fraternity Row’ next fall, we couldn’t be more excited to see what the future has in store for Delta Chi at UW-Madison.

In March, our fathers flew in from all across the country for our Fathers’ Weekend, and our chapter initiated five of our brothers’ fathers. Our brothers

NEW FOUNDER 1996 - DISTINGUISHED DELTA CHI

NEW FOUNDER 1984 - DELTA CHI OF THE YEAR

James D. Dodson ’58 Nov. 29, 1936 - Jan. 25, 2014 Excerpt from the Santa Barbara News-Press:

Jim was born in Ray City, Oklahoma and spent most of his childhood in northeastern Oklahoma. Jim met his wife Jeannie while attending the University of Oklahoma. They were happily married for 56 years until Jeannie’s passing in October 2012.

Jim’s extensive success in business included chief executive positions at several large public and private companies. Upon his retirement from the corporate world at 47, Jim pursued his entrepreneurial passions as a private equity investor stewarding promising companies and young executives.

Jim and Jeannie had searched the country for their ideal place to live out their golden years and chose the Santa Ynez Valley. While living in the Santa Ynez Valley Jim and Jeannie had the opportunity to share their success and fully engage their passion for philanthropic causes both directly and through the Dodson Foundation within the local community, educational institutions and student scholarships.

Henry Hartsfield ’54 Nov. 21, 1933 - Jul. 17, 2014 NASA Astronaut and proud Delta Chi brother Henry “Hank” Hartsfield, who in 1984 commanded the maiden mission of the space shuttle Discovery, died on July 17, 2014 at the age of 80. Hartsfield’s death came as a result of complications from back surgery he had several months prior. Hartsfield is survived by his wife Judy Frances Massey, daughter Judy, and two grandchildren. Additionally, Hartsfield’s photograph sits proudly on display at Delta Chi’s International Headquarters along with a badge that was flown in space.

Our Brothers Who Serve. We Salute You! James Madison: Brother G. Nicholas Perkinson ’05 is currently stationed at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri as an active duty Army Captain. He has been deployed twice to Afghanistan.
