CHAI RMAN’S LETTE R

Brothers, Friends, and Parents, In this issue of The DEKE Quarterly we recognize the donations, of both time and money, that so many have made to DKE over the past year. It is no exaggeration to say that DKE would not be the financially sound, growing, and vibrant fraternity it is today without this show of support.

Over the past several years DKE has made a profound transformation to become a more transparent, proactive, and professional fraternity. The results include: • Prudent financial management over the past five years has resulted in operating surpluses that we put into reserves to help offset the annual increases in insurance costs for our members; • Growth in both the number of members we serve (2,500 this year) and Chapters and Colonies (53 and 15) that we support to provide the lifelong benefit of membership to as many young men as possible; • A focus on providing both our active members and alumni with increasingly valuable services, from mental health resources to enhanced networking opportunities; and, • A dedication to ensuring that DKE remains relevant in the modern age and accessible across all social and economic groups.

This final point—about DKE being accessible to those that may not consider a fraternity experience, especially due to financial circumstances—is critical to the long term health and well being of DKE. College and university students today are more heavily reliant on financial aid than past generations and education continues to be the best pathway to financial independence. Membership in a Greek-letter organization like DKE complements the academic experience by providing leadership, peer support, and networking opportunities, enhancing the chances of success.

For these reasons I ask you to join with the DKE Board in support of the Deke Foundation in the U.S. and the DKE University and College Funding Inc. in Canada. Your tax-deductible contribution is used solely for educational purposes and scholarships that allow more young men to benefit from the DKE experience. Events from the biennial DKE Convention to the annual Brother Beta Academy, recently held in January in Washington D.C., are instrumental in advancing the culture, leadership, and brotherhood that is the core mission of DKE. Thank you for your support of DKE and the young men who will become our next generation of great DKE leaders.

In the Bonds,

Michael Peters Delta Delta – University of Chicago ’90 Chairman, Delta Kappa Epsilon International

nyone who leads a business, large or small, is kept busy with the daily rush of matters to handle, but also must keep his or her eye on the long term factors that are affecting, or will affect, the business they’re in. This is the “Important and Not Urgent” quadrant that Dr. Stephen Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, and others have talked about. Business leaders and boards need to spend more time in that quadrant. You must always be analyzing trends, thinking about how your business fits into the cultural landscape, and re-evaluating your value proposition, to be sure that you are remaining relevant to your consumers of today and tomorrow.

if DKE and other fraternities continue to provide a rich experience where young men can come together and create lasting bonds in a responsible way, there will always be a place for fraternities.

Demographic trends will present challenges to fraternities, as the number of traditional “joiners” will drop fairly steadily over the next several years. In their place will be first-generation college students, a more ethnically diverse student population, and immigrants, mostly Chinese. We will have to work harder to sell the benefits of joining to those who might not have been traditionally interested in fraternities.

Currently about 14% of college males join fraternities, so even with enrollment dropping, Doug Lanpher, that leaves 86% of the population which forms Executive Director our prospect pool.

DEKE NEWS WALTER HUSSMAN TO SPEAK AT DKE CLUB DINNER

C

oming on the heels of another successful year in 2017, the DKE Club of New York will host its annual business meeting and dinner on Wednesday, April 18. Walter Hussman Jr., a Beta Deke, will be the featured speaker that night. He is a third-generation newspaper publisher and CEO of WEHCO Media, a mass media conglomerate that owns various newspapers and cable television companies.

Brother Hussman’s remarks on the state of the media industry in today’s unique environment will be of interest to the Dekes in attendance.

Other dates to remember at the club include the annual Fall Dinner Dance on Friday, October 19, and the Christmas Party on Thursday, December 20. It’s always a wonderful part of New York’s festive holiday season.

The DKE Club is always impressive for those of every age. For the fourth year in a row, the DKE Club hosted the fraternity’s Phi Mu chapter for an event. Thirty undergraduates toured the beautiful clubhouse, courtesy of Rose-Mary Rudden, club secretary, who came in on a Saturday to meet the young Dekes.

Phi Mu’s main objective is to bring some of their top recruits for the tour, thereby helping to seal the deal on their joining DKE. Phi Mu officers said the DKE Club is a great selling point for the young men they are recruiting.

The 2019 DKE Board of Governors roster includes Vice President Eamon Egan, Treasurer Robert Cudd, Secretary Dennis Gerber and Membership/Activities Chairman Eric Dubowsky. Club President Bob Oros also singled out supporting members Charles O. Blaisdell, Clint Blume III, John Mathews, Jody McMurray, Mason Morjikian and Luke Vander Linden. Oros said Matt McQueen and Brandon Conley continue as assistants.

Oros also mentioned that those who wish to join the DKE Club should contact the DKE Club office or any member of the Board of Governors. Members enjoy the amenities of the Yale Club as well as its long list of reciprocal clubs around the world.

MU DEKES CELEBRATE WINTER GATHERING

By Sean Devlin n February 10, the Mu of DKE Foundation (www.mudke.org) celebrated its annual winter gathering, as more than 75 Colgate Deke brothers met at the DKE Club in New York City.

DEKES OF ALL AGES TO GATHER AT PITTSBURGH CONVENTION

T

hree major rivers -- the Allegheny, Ohio and Monongahela -converge in downtown Pittsburgh, Pa., and Dekes from every direction will follow those routes to DKE’s biannual convention.

Scheduled from May 30-June 2, the convention will take place at the well-appointed Sheraton Hotel at Station Square, right next to the waters of the Monongahela.

Pittsburgh is a fun city with museums, historical sites, casinos, ball parks, and plenty of things to do. Not 50 feet from the hotel are big riverboats that stand ready to transport you to any place in the city, or you can just take a leisurely cruise.

A full slate of classes and seminars are scheduled, and young Dekes can learn the latest from experts on how to improve chapter operations. Events are also being organized for the leaders of DKE alumni groups. The best part of every convention is the opportunity to meet and socialize with Dekes from all over North America, building friendships that could last for decades.

DKE alumni are invited to take part in the convention, which will be capped by a festive banquet on Saturday. You’ve never lived until you’ve taken part in a rousing Lion March that includes scores of Dekes.

Undergraduates are encouraged to check with their college administrators to see if funds are available for this convention, which will be educational. DKE alumni groups will also want to encourage undergraduate representation from every chapter. Stay tuned for more details about what promises to be one of our best conventions in years.

Mu has not had a recognized undergraduate chapter since 2005, although its alumni organization remains very active and continues to grow with young Colgate alumni of the highest caliber joining Mu’s ranks every year.

Mu will wrap up a successful $2 million fundraising campaign in June for the construction of an addition and upgrades to the Mu Temple Library (c. 1877) at Colgate University. Mu has committed to preserving this historic DKE building and work will begin this spring and continue through 2019.

Along with general merriment and tales of jolly good fellows shared by all, serious business was attended to when $15,000 in merit scholarships were recommended by the Scholarship Committee, unanimously approved by the Foundation’s Board, and awarded with thunderous applause to two deserving unaffiliated Colgate undergraduate men. w w w.d ke.o rg

DEKE NEWS EXCITEMENT BUILDS FOR DKE’S 175TH ANNIVERSARY

I

n a little over a year, Delta Kappa Epsilon will mark the 175th anniversary of its founding. And boy, the party to mark this one promises to be something special. The culmination will be a gala black-tie dinner at The DKE Club of New York on June 22, 2019 in the beautiful surroundings of the Yale Club.

What makes this event so special is that it promises to be a celebration of Dekes from several generations who hail from all over North America. None of the original 15 founders who gathered in Old South Hall on the campus of Yale University on that fateful day in 1844 is still around, of course, but their spirit continues to thrive. It should be remembered, too, that today’s DKE undergraduates are approximately the same age as the founders were when they dreamed of the brotherhood that DKE has become -- producing five U.S. presidents, scores of senators, congressmen and Supreme Court justices, as well as so many successful artists, authors, athletes, clergymen and business executives.

Yes, Bob Green, Eta ’69, who is coordinating the volunteer organizers of the event, said this one should be a whopper. Already, plans are underway for a series of regional dinners leading up to the Founder’s Day celebration in New York. Cities that will host the regional dinners include Chicago, Houston, New Orleans, Atlanta, Nashville, Toronto and Raleigh.

Such a major undertaking requires many volunteers, and DKE is always looking for more Brothers who would like to take part in helping to organize the events. If you’d like to participate, please send an email to Turner Spears, of DKE’s International Headquarters office, at Turner@dke.org and he will get in touch.

Brother Green promises to update all Dekes as more information about the big event in New York becomes available. “Many individual chapters have staged wonderful anniversary celebrations over the years, and so we already know the recipe for success,” he said. “We just need to make this one bigger and more memorable than ever.”

SYRACUSE DEKES HOST TEENS AT BASKETBALL OUTING

I

n February, the brothers of Phi Gamma proved they have a big heart by taking a group of 18 underprivileged teenagers from an inner-city high school on a special basketball excursion.

“The school’s administrators told us that the teens read at about a second grade level, and that even though they lived just 10 minutes from the Syracuse campus, none had never attended a basketball game at the Carrier Dome,” said Phi Gamma President Cam Pierro.

The teens, along with two chaperones, traveled by bus to the Deke House where they toured the surroundings, ate sandwiches, and asked questions of the undergraduate brothers. “They were amazed by what they saw at our house,” Pierro said of the early 20th century mansion that had been built by the owner of a huge Syracuse steel mill. The impressive house was updated and remodeled in recent years with funds donated by entertainment mogul Dick Clark and other Phi Gamma alumni.

“We had great seats at the game, and the kids seemed thrilled,” Pierro said. “The only negative aspect of the outing is that Syracuse got beat fairly handily by Virginia. But after the game, when we all went down to the court, a Virginia player who was still in uniform, came over and talked with our group and posed for photos with us. It was a great day for everyone.”

The Dekes picked up the tab for the bus rental, food, tickets, and snack bags the kids took home. “I don’t know who had more fun,” Pierro said, “the teenagers or the Dekes.”

SARTI’S LATEST BOOK LANDS ON BEST-SELLER LISTS

F

ormer Deke Quarterly editor Doug Sarti, Phi Alpha ’89, has cowritten a book with Dan McLeod on Vancouver, British Columbia’s popular alternative weekly newspaper, “The Georgia Straight.” It’s a 50th anniversary celebration of the newspaper and has become the hit of the Pacific Northwest, even landing on some best-seller lists.

A hefty coffee table book that features a collection of covers from over the past five decades, it offers a running commentary on the artwork and history of the newspaper as well as the Vancouver area.

Bob Geldof, the Irish singer-songwriter, wrote the introduction to the book.

While known for hard-hitting journalism and pointed prose, the “Straight” has also been a purposely visual publication with eyecatching design that reflected the times. With work from a multitude of artists using various media and contrasting styles, this collection illustrates how the “Straight” was able to seize the moral high ground in the culture wars and turn civil disobedience into an art form.

Brother Sarti, who served as Director of Chapter Services for DKE International in 1991-92, also edited the Quarterly during that time.

HORSE RACING AND BUSINESS GIANT

PRESTON MADDEN FINALLY JOINS THE RANKS OF DKE

Bob Green, Eta ’69, Aleco Bravo, Eta ’90, and DKE Executive Director Doug Lanpher, Gamma ’77, present Preston Madden (second from left) with his honorary DKE certificate.

I

t took Preston Madden just 63 years from the time he pledged Delta Kappa Epsilon at Sigma Rho to that happy day last November when he became a full-fledged Deke. At a formal dinner hosted by University of Virginia Dekes Aleco Jaime Bravo and Bob Green, a DKE Board member, and DKE Executive Director Doug Lanpher, Madden, one of the most respected men in horse racing and business, became an official honorary Deke.

In 1954, Preston returned to his native Lexington, Ky., after his first year at Stanford and enrolled at the University of Kentucky. He planned to return to Stanford the next year, to follow in the footsteps of his older brother, Patrick, who had already been initiated into the bonds of DKE, but family obligations intervened.

Preston remained at UK and at the age of 22 took over management of Hamburg Place, the nation’s leading thoroughbred horse farm, started in 1898 by his grandfather, John E. Madden.

Known as “The wizard of the turf,” John E. Madden named his farm Hamburg Place in honor of the champion horse Hamburg, which he sold for a record $40,001 to copper king Marcus Daly.

In 1898, John Madden’s thoroughbred, Plaudit, won the Kentucky Derby. Five more Derby winners, bred by Madden, would follow.

He also bred five winners of the Belmont Stakes, including Sir Barton who in 1919 became the first Triple Crown winner.

Thanks to his amazing success as a horse breeder, owner, and trainer, John Madden oversaw the rapid growth of his farm to more than 2,000 acres. He had two sons, Edward and Joseph, but neither was interested in following in their father’s business.

In 1956, however, Edward’s youngest son, Preston, stepped in and began running the farm. He immediately proved to be a shrewd judge of horses. “Right off, I was extremely fortunate to get War Admiral to stand at stud at Hamburg Place in his last

year,” Preston said of the Triple Crown winner, who was the son of the famed Man o’ War. Preston named War Admiral’s very last foal Belthazar and she never left the farm in Lexington. Preston bred her to Lt. Stevens and she produced Bel Sheba, who was later bred to Alydar, which produced Alysheba in 1984.

“I sold Alysheba for $500,000 at Keeneland, and he went on to win the 1987 Kentucky Derby. The following year, Alysheba became the world’s leading money-earning thoroughbred,” Preston said. His pride in the horse is apparent, and he is equally proud of T.V. Lark, a racing champion of the late 1950s and early ’60s, who stood at Hamburg Place and became the nation’s leading sire.

After Interstate 75 cut through Hamburg Place in the 1960s, Preston spearheaded the development of the farm into the shopping mecca it is today. Hamburg now houses many big-box stores, restaurants, office buildings and condominiums. A few feet away from the parking lot of a Wal-Mart and Lowes sits a reminder of the land’s previous use: an equine cemetery with some of Madden’s favorite broodmares, racehorses, and riding horses.

“My wife, Anita, and I have served on numerous boards in the area, and we stay active in the community,” Preston said. For nearly 40 years, Anita Madden was famous for hosting extravagant Kentucky Derby Eve galas. Every year, more than 5,000 people, including movie stars, authors and politicians, would attend the parties, which raised huge sums for charity. Burt Bacharach even composed a song for Anita, whose annual galas were always the hit of the social season.

“I’ve lived a long, full life, and have enjoyed hobbies such as sky diving, mountain climbing and horseback riding,” said Preston, now 83, and still very active. “Becoming a Deke after all these years is like icing on the cake.” w w w.d ke.o rg

COVE R STORY

BROTHER BETA ACADEMY

IN WASHINGTON, D.C. DRAWS YOUNG DKE LEADERS CLOSER

Y

ou could almost feel their presence. The aura of five DKE brothers who became U.S. presidents seemed to energize the second Brother Beta Academy, which took place in January in Washington, D.C. Two-dozen chapter presidents from all over North America gathered for three days at the stately office building of The Fund for American Studies, set amidst the handsome mansions in historic northwest Washington that house the embassies for many foreign nations.

The discussions at this special conference were sober and serious, as the young Dekes, led by DKE Executive Director Doug Lanpher and his staff, honed their leadership skills. Lanpher opened the gathering at a reception and dinner at a Cuban restaurant in the neighborhood by telling the young brothers what an important role they play at their respective chapters.

“A skillful Brother Beta can put a chapter on solid footing for several years into the future,” Lanpher said. “Similarly, a lackluster Brother Beta can set a chapter back for years.” Lanpher welcomed the chapter presidents, emphasizing what a great honor their brothers have bestowed upon them, and how they must meet the responsibility of those leadership demands.

On the first day of sessions, the topics ranged from managing an executive board to crisis prevention and management.

Chapter Consultant Craig Dick, Phi Alpha ’16, started the first seminar by asking the Brothers Beta to study some background readings and then split into small groups to discuss the leadership material. The brothers addressed a series of questions and then presented their solutions to the group at large. It reflected the general tone at the meetings which was friendly and brotherly but also serious.

8 THE DEKE QUARTERLY | SPRING 2018

The second topic started with a short powerpoint presentation of what to do if a crisis should ever occur at a chapter. The brothers were divided into three groups: plaintiffs, defendants, and judges. The plaintiffs and defendants were given 20 minutes to go over the facts of real cases that have occurred in the fraternity world, and prepare their arguments before presenting them to the judges. Verdicts were rendered by the judges, and then Lanpher would read the actual outcome of the cases. It proved to be an eye-opening experience for the young presidents as Lanpher read the real verdicts and revealed the huge sums of

money that actual judges had ruled the fraternities must pay.

The Dekes, who stayed in Washington at the well-appointed Kimpton Carlyle Hotel at Dupont Circle, a short distance from the site of the meetings, enjoyed touring the monuments and various sites in D.C. during their free time from the sessions. “I really enjoyed getting together with my fellow Dekes to learn and have a good time,” said Alec Bradley, of Sigma Alpha. “The sessions were good because they presented real-life situations, and then we would talk further about the topics among ourselves. I thought it was a very valuable experience.”

These undergraduate Dekes showed exemplary leadership at the 2018 Brother Beta Academy, held in January in Washington, D.C. Each brother is identified on the back cover of this magazine.

Andrew Moldoff, Brother Beta at Phi Chi, said he was surprised by how much he and his brothers have in common with their DKE brothers from all over North America. “I think it was clear that we face many of the same challenges,” Moldoff said.

“We also share a kind of can-do spirit to get it right. The close bond that we, as Dekes, feel for each other was evident.”

Gamma Iota Brother Beta Ryan Hamilton, a sophomore who took office only a few weeks before the conference, said he appreciated how freely the older Brother Betas shared their experiences. “You could feel the common bond between the brothers, which really impressed me,” Hamilton said. “Everybody seemed to learn a lot from each other, and it drove home how connected all Dekes are.”

10 THE DEKE QUARTERLY | SPRING 2018

On the second day of discussions, the brothers took a personality test through Gallup’s Strength Quest. Eric Holland, of the headquarters staff, facilitated a conversation that helped them understand what their strengths are and how to leverage them in leading their chapters. He stressed that they could use the personality test to learn about others and assess their strengths.

Holland also led a discussion on Simon Sinek’s Golden Circle, which focused on how great leaders inspire action. The next session on goal setting and planning culminated in a workshop with Jordan Williams, who talked about the importance of planning and how it helped him succeed as Brother Beta at Chi Beta.

Finally, the brothers took part in a discussion about communication – within the chapter and with the campus and community at large. At an exercise following the presentation, the brothers put together a year-long communications schedule, as they outlined how they would best reach out to parents, alumni, teachers, administrators and the public.

“I found the sessions interesting and relevant to what we are experiencing at my chapter,” said Nicholas Clarke of Nu chapter.

Clayton Trette, of the DKE staff, worked hard to help arrange the conference and set up many of its classes.

The conference proved so successful that Brother Lanpher said serious consideration will be given to returning to the same site in 2019. “There’s a lot to do here in Washington, and I think we gave our presidents a lot to think about,” he said. “They certainly poured their hearts and souls into these sessions and we all went away with a very positive feeling.”

RYAN SERHANT TAU ’06 HAMILTON GRADUATE HITS IT BIG AS NYC REAL ESTATE BROKER AND STAR OF BRAVO REALITY TV SHOW

R

yan Serhant, one of the nation’s most successful real estate brokers and the star of Bravo’s hit reality TV show “Million Dollar Listing,” is a young Deke who refuses to be outworked.

The 33-year-old Serhant has never been deterred by failure. “When I was wrapping up my time at Hamilton College, I decided to follow the lead of several of my friends and apply to law school,” he said. “I took the LSATs and ended up with one of the worst scores in history, which convinced me to follow my dream of becoming an actor.”

A theater and literature major at Hamilton, Serhant had saved up enough money from his summer jobs in construction and as a ranch hand to be able to move to New York City and devote all his time to finding acting jobs. He had some success and landed a role for two years on the TV soap opera “As the World Turns,” but living in the city required more money than he had. “I got my real estate license, planning to sell real estate part-time and pursue my acting career the rest of the time, but that didn’t work,” Serhant said. “In real estate you must be available all the time. What surprised me is that I slowly fell in love with the business.”

Today, Serhant heads a team of 62 brokers on both coasts and he’s involved in projects all over North America. In addition to “Million Dollar Listing,” he’s also starring in a new show on Bravo, “Sell It Like Serhant,” that will debut in April. In other words, this young Tau Deke, whose brokers were ranked as the number one sales team in New

Serhant heads a team of 62 brokers on both coasts and he’s involved in projects all over North America.

In addition to “Million Dollar Listing,” he’s also starring in a new show on Bravo, “Sell It Like Serhant,” that will debut in April.

York by the Wall Street Journal, has come a long way since he first arrived in New York and scratched out a living as a hand model. “I decided that I would work as hard as I possibly could to make a success of my life,” he said. “Selling real estate isn’t easy, but it’s nowhere near the kind of roller-coaster ride that being an actor in New York is. I became used to rejection as an actor, and there’s rejection in real estate, too, but it’s not personal rejection. It’s rejection of the deal.”

The strapping, six-foot three-inch Serhant, who was born in Houston and raised in Topsfield, MA, said he remains close to two of his DKE brothers from Hamilton who live in New York City. “These guys are my best friends in the world and I see them often,” Serhant said. “I learned a lot at DKE in Hamilton and served as our pledge educator my senior year. We had a real family atmosphere at our chapter and I met guys who have become lifelong friends.”

The personable Serhant, who is regularly invited onto the major TV networks to discuss real estate topics, said he’s busy selling, writing a blog, doing a podcast, writing a book and handling speaking engagements all over the world. But when Ben Stiller invited him to star in the 2015 film “While We’re Young,” Serhant became an actor again. “I’d kind of put acting to the side, but it was a good part,” he said.

He also found time three years ago to arrange to shut down Times Square so he could have a memorable setting to propose marriage to Emilia Bechrakis. They were married in 2016. “It’s a busy life but I wouldn’t have it any other way,” Ryan said.

MEET THE DKE BOARD THIRD IN THE SERIES PROFILING THE 16 MEMBERS OF THE DKE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

GRANT BURNYEAT PHI ALPHA ’65

G

rant Burnyeat, chairman of DKE’s finance committee and a longtime member of the board, has been devoted to his fraternity since the day he was initiated in March of 1965 at Phi Alpha – University of British Columbia. He later took a year off from college to raise funds and help plan the construction of a new UBC chapter house. Two years later, after being honored as the outstanding DKE undergraduate of 1968, he went to work as Assistant Secretary at DKE International under the legendary Bill Henderson, longtime executive director of the fraternity.

“They were two great years,” Grant said, as he recalled meeting future U.S. President George W. Bush and U.S. Vice-President Dan Quayle when they were undergraduates. Long interested in the history of DKE, he authored a history of the fraternity – the blue book from which hundreds of young Dekes would study in the years afterward. “I went through every Deke Quarterly dating back to 1883 in researching that book and the other manuals I wrote,” Grant said.

Long active as a leader in Phi Alpha’s alumni hierarchy, raising funds and detailing the history of all DKE chapters, Grant also spearheaded the drives to establish DKE’s University of Victoria chapter, as well as the colony at Simon Fraser University. He has visited ten universities where DKE chapters once thrived and pored through the archives there, uncovering valuable historical facts about the fraternity. Grant has helped introduce younger DKE chapters to our rich history by donating valuable memorabilia that he has purchased through the years. Many of DKE treasures are on display in beautifully crafted wood cabinets at the Phi Alpha house.

A contributor for many years to the Deke Quarterly, Grant also authors “This Day in DKE history,” a popular daily feature on Facebook. He does all this while excelling at his day job – as a justice for more than 20 years of the Supreme Court of British Columbia. “For every hour I’ve devoted to DKE, I get at least three hours of enjoyment,” he said. Grant is pleased by DKE’s progress in recent years and believes the fraternity is in a position to grow and prosper.

KEVIN O’BRYON TAU LAMBDA ’77

K

evin O’Bryon, a respected New Orleans attorney for more than four decades, is in his third year of service on the DKE Board of Directors. Since his days as an undergraduate Deke at Tau Lambda, where he put in two years as treasurer of the Tulane chapter, Kevin has been closely involved with all aspects of the chapter’s alumni activities. Since 1985, he has served as an informal legal adviser and a registered agent for the Tau Lambda House Corporation.

Kevin has assisted in alumni fundraising efforts, his chapter’s 100-year anniversary celebration, and is co-organizer of the successful New Orleans DKE Luncheon Club. When DKE International came calling with an invitation to join its board, Kevin typically volunteered to serve. Since then, he has graciously offered legal advice related to risk management cases, and has also studied lease agreements at various chapters when asked.

“My experience as an undergraduate Deke was a period of great personal growth,” Kevin said. He grew up in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C., but has remained in New Orleans since enrolling at Tulane University in 1973. He graduated from Tulane Law School and was a partner is several prestigious firms before forming O’Bryon & Schnabel in 2000. “I’ve lived in New Orleans for more than 40 years, which means that in another 40 years, I might qualify as a native,” he joked.

Kevin believes that Delta Kappa Epsilon is on the right track and credits DKE Headquarters for the professional quality of its management. “I think fraternities have a lot to offer young people who are looking for friendship and the support of a closeknit family,” he said. “I’ve been lucky because New Orleans has always been a good town to hang with Dekes. I’m fortunate that many of my best friends remain close to the fraternity. Some of us are 10 years older or 10 years younger than I am, but it doesn’t seem to matter. We’re close and still support each other, as all good Dekes do.”

OF DIRECTORS TERRY STEWART PHI CHI ’69

T

erry Stewart, who has excelled at the top level of diverse businesses throughout his career, credits his experience at the DKE chapter at Rutgers University for his ability to lead one company after another. “Serving as president of a chapter like ours back in the ‘60s when we had more than 100 guys was like herding cats,” said Stewart, a longtime member of DKE’s Board of Directors. “DKE meant the world to me, especially during my undergraduate years. It made me somebody who rarely gets overwhelmed by a challenge.”

From the time he was growing up in Daphne, near Mobile, AL, Terry worked hard at achieving his goals. A knee injury in high school prevented him from accepting an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, but fate dealt him a winning hand when he ended up as a brother in Delta Kappa Epsilon. He was busy back then, double majoring in engineering and education, and then he went on to get his MBA in finance and law degree from Cornell.

Terry spent 15 years in banking, strategic planning, and business development before switching gears and joining Marvel Entertainment Group, best known for its comic book characters, including Spider Man, the X-Men, and the Avengers. He served as president and chief operating officer during his eight years at Marvel, as the company went public.

In 1999, Terry took over as president and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland. Over the next 13 years, he led the Rock Hall to new heights. After retiring from the Rock Hall, Terry consulted for a year with Gibson Brands in Nashville. He produced award-winning programs for PBS, and for the past several years has served as CEO of El Dorado Festivals & Events in El Dorado, Ark. He also chairs a group that is building the first blues museum in Chicago.

“Because of DKE, my brothers and I developed these great friendships that have endured all these years,” he said. “It’s why I take such great pride in serving my fraternity.”

MATT MCQUEEN BETA GAMMA ’03

A

s an undergraduate at New York University, Matt McQueen said Delta Kappa Epsilon taught him perspective. “I learned so much at Beta Gamma,” said Matt, one of DKE’s newest board members. “It would not be an exaggeration to say that DKE defined my college experience. I learned about leadership, and about working closely with my friends to accomplish important things. Best of all, I met great people who are still among my closest friends.”

A banking executive with the Bank of America in New York City, Matt said he’s just getting involved with DKE’s board but has already joined the finance committee and is helping in the effort to rebrand the Rampant Lion Foundation as the Deke Foundation. “I’m also helping the committee that’s planning DKE’s 175 anniversary, which will take place in New York in June of 2019,” he said. “As a member of the Deke Club of New York (at the Yale Club) I’ve met so many great people. It’s not only a terrific club because of its amenities, but also because of all the nice people you see there.”

College life has changed a lot even in the 15 years since Matt graduated from NYU, but he points out that the values of DKE never change. “It’s still about being a part of something that’s bigger than yourself,” he said. “People who join DKE today are exposed to the same values our fraternity had 50 years ago, 100 years ago, and even 150 years ago. That’s what I tell our young brothers when I have a chance to visit Beta Gamma or another chapter.”

Matt said he’s gained a greater knowledge and understanding of DKE by speaking with undergraduates and attending conventions. “The environment at colleges has changed a lot and it’s important that we continue to evolve in the way we manage our fraternity,” he said. “I think we’re doing very well and it’s why I have a lot of hope for the future.”

and its support network including alumni and other chapters. They’re there for us in everything we do.

Delta Phi Brothers enjoy another banner year.

DELTA PHI -- UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTA It has certainly been an interesting year for the men at Delta Phi. Between the usual shenanigans found at the Deke house in Edmonton, it’s been a banner year for our philanthropic efforts. Also, our chapter includes a number of members who have been celebrating outstanding individual achievements. The gentlemen of Delta Phi will certainly look back on 2017-2018 with fond and cherished memories.

During the past semester, our chapter has been blessed with visits from some of our most senior alumni. For example, we were graced by the presence of Bob Rennebohm ’72, at our Parents Tea event in September. Brother Rennebohm joined other alumni brothers at two major alumni events, Scotch N’ Cigars and Stag. Recent graduates as well as Dekes dating back to the 1950s attended the events.

In addition to our alumni events, the brothers are also determined to beat our goal of 400 charitable hours. With just over 20 members, that’s a serious commitment.

We’ve supported such groups this year as Meals on Wheels, Oneball, Friends of the University of Alberta Hospital, and we also volunteer at a charitable breakfast service every Friday morning at the All Saints Anglican Cathedral in downtown Edmonton.

Beyond their charitable efforts, members

have exhibited excellence both within the Greek community and within the realm of academia. Brother Rory Storm, current President of the IFC at the University of Alberta, managed to organize the first ever Greek Conference at the U of A, at which every single fraternity and sorority was in attendance, as well as representatives from the Student Union. Several Delta Phi Dekes are graduating this term, and Chapter President Brother Jesse Fontaine will be admitted to the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Law after just three years of undergraduate study.

Last, but certainly not least, our chapter initiated 11 outstanding young men this past January. We are thrilled to have them in our ranks, and the future of the Chapter is certainly in good hands with this upstanding group.

DELTA PI -- UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS Excitement is building as we’re getting closer to moving into new quarters, and we’ve already hit the minimum capacity of 23 members who will reside in the new house.

We recently had a successful philanthropy event with the Illini service dogs, which cast us in the spotlight. Helped by beautiful weather, the turnout was great at the event, which featured a dunk tank contest where people sent Delta Pi brothers deep under water. We also participated at the Relay for Life campaign where we ran for charity and raised a handsome sum of money.

Homecoming was a big event at Delta Pi this year, as many alumni -- old and young -- attended our rechartering ceremony. On Dad’s weekend, a bunch of families came by, including moms, dads, sisters and brothers who wore custom shirts that we designed for the day. We also went to watch the football game afterwards. but, unfortunately, our team did not perform well even though our spirit was at an all time high. Afterward at the house, we hosted a fun gathering for alumni, actives, families, and friends.

OMEGA MU – OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY No report submitted PHI ALPHA – UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA The 2017-2018 year has been a real treat for Phi Alpha. We successfully initiated 27 new brothers, and we’re excited to see many of them assuming leadership roles in the chapter.

Once again, our annual Norman P. Hager

Phi Alpha includes many talented hockey players, on the ice and off.

Alumni Night proved to be an amazing event. As over 75 alumni from a great range of classes came out to meet this year’s pledges, they caught up with old friends and shared many stories from their glory days.

Among the brothers who came to meet the newest Phi Alpha Dekes were Brother Brent Dunn (Boom Boom) ’72, who told good stories about the great parties, delicious cooking, and a lot of the shenanigans that used to happen at Phi Alpha’s old house on Agronomy Road.

Our campus presence has been very strong in the past year. We took home first place in three major sorority philanthropy events: Delta Gamma’s Anchorsplash, Alpha Delta Pi’s Diamondball softball tournament, and finally for the third year in a row, Gamma Phi Beta’s Gammie’s film festival.

Also, our DKE Lions hockey team continues to be a force to reckon with. Outfitted in beautiful new jerseys, we are a chapter full of former junior hockey players. In first semester, the Lions hosted our third annual Score for Scott pledge by goal inter-fraternal hockey game. We won by scoring six goals and raising $4,572.

In other good news, Phi Alpha’s Will Shelling was just elected as First Vice-President of the Inter-Fraternal Council!

After absolutely blowing our goal out of the water and raising over $42,000 in our annual Scott Trapp Stick-It to Cancer ball hockey tournament, we became the secondlargest independent fundraiser in British Columbia for the Canadian Cancer Society.

For the coming year, we’ve upped our goal to $45,000. All proceeds from the tournament will go to the Canadian Cancer Society, in honour of our lost brother, Scott Trapp ’13. For more information, check out our new website, designed by Alumnus Brother Zach Starko ’13: www.stickittocancer.ca .

Sigma Rho doubled the size of its Stanford chapter in 2017-18.

SIGMA RHO – STANFORD UNIVERSITY Sigma Rho continues to strengthen its chapter not only internally, but also externally across the Stanford campus. Our normal recruitment in Spring helped double the fraternity’s size. We had two upperclass men we wanted but who were unable to join last spring, so we initiated them this fall – Hristo Stoyanov from Bulgaria and Kyle D’Souza from Pennsylvania. We are very excited to welcome these fine gentlemen into the brotherhood.

Earlier in the quarter, we co-organized a mixer with Sigma Psi Zeta, and we just hosted our first all-campus party of the year, called “DKE Mythology.” Last quarter, we set a philanthropy goal of having each member contribute at least 10 community service hours throughout the quarter. We baked Challah bread for charity. We worked on a farm for disability awareness. w w w.d ke.o rg

One of the most popular events was the Pescadero Family Science Night, where people helped put together hands-on science activities for local elementary school students and their families. Many of us worked with bubbles and hula hoops.

Ultimately, we averaged over 20 hours per member. Internally, we discovered our entire fraternity enjoys playing Mario Kart, so we have played it consistently as a chapter on the quiet night of the weekend.

Our fraternity has enhanced its identity this year. We’ve grown from 13 members last year to 26 now and are looking to continue growth this year. With that we are defining ourselves both internally and through our presence on campus.

TAU CHI – TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY: We have an exciting event in College Station, as our Tau Chi chapter is moving into our new house. It’s an 8-acre compound with a covered basketball court, and the brothers love calling this property home.

We are beginning renovations to make this place more unique to DKE. We just finished recruitment for spring, so we’re excited about welcoming our new members into Tau Chi’s Hall of DKE. During spring, one of our major undertakings as a chapter is Big Event, a campuswide philanthropy day at Texas A&M. We participate in the service projects all morning as a chapter, paired with a sorority, and we then have a crawfish boil mixer to wind down the day. It’s a lot of fun and we’re helping the community.

We’re excited with how well our chapter is growing, and look forward to the social, brotherhood, and alumni events that we will host in the coming months.

THETA UPSILON – ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY Theta Upsilon of Delta Kappa Epsilon is extremely proud to report that our second annual Alzheimer’s Awareness Philanthropy has already proven to be a massive success. At Arizona State University, with DKE brothers from all over North America, especially the cold areas, one of our favorite brotherhood past times is playing hockey.

Last year, we decided to take action on our love for the game of hockey and reached out to the National Hockey League’s Arizona Coyotes Alumni Organization.

After a few phone calls, we began planning a philanthropy event with them. Our fraternity and the Coyotes Alumni organized 16 THE DEKE QUARTERLY | SPRING 2018

a fundraiser that would be donating to the Gordie Howe C.A.R.E.S. Foundation and Alzheimer’s Research Center. To conclude the fundraiser, we planned a friendly game between the Theta Upsilon Dekes and the Arizona Coyotes Alumni. Last year’s philanthropy was a great success as we raised over $5,000 to Alzheimer’s research.

The Coyotes Alumni matched our donation bringing the total to over $11,000.

This year, the Philanthropy could not be headed in a better direction. We are on track to raise over $7,000 toward the cause, and the Coyotes Alumni are generously matching our totals once again.

We are so excited to announce that Arizona Coyotes Hockey Legend, Shane Doan will participate in the friendly game against the Dekes, and numerous current Arizona Coyotes players will be in attendance, cheering both teams on. Even former Arizona Cardinals Quarterback Kurt Warner will be in attendance. Our philanthropy has been the talk of town and donations have been flowing in from every direction.

Aside from our Philanthropy, the Theta Upsilon Chapter has been thriving during the spring semester. Having one of our best turnouts for off-campus rush, we hosted about 100 interviews and now have a powerhouse 30-man pledge class, which is filled with intelligent, well-rounded gentlemen. We are excited to see what else this semester has in store for us, especially because of all the amazing events we have been planning.

THETA ZETA – UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY DKE’s Theta Zeta chapter has undergone some amazing improvements over the past few months. Chris McMahon ‘82, Robert Tuller ‘51, and other Cal alumni enjoy stopping by to reminisce about their college days, and they have been helping us to refine our house.

We’ve renovated our once mud-filled lawn, contracted with Brother McMahon, an architect, to upgrade our rooftop balcony.

We’ve also polished the hardwood floors in the rooms. Our Canadian DKE brothers, including Steven Robertson from Simon Fraser University, can attest to our incredible view of the Golden Gate Bridge and the rest of San Francisco.

We love telling how our chapter’s house and the properties next to it were donated to DKE in 1909 by the Mayor of San Francisco, who was also a DKE. After over 100 years as the home of

Theta Zeta beautified its California chapter house in 2017-18.

Theta Zeta, it is long overdue for renovations.

On top of being newly re-affiliated with Berkeley’s IFC, our chapter-wide efforts toward becoming recognized by the university again in the upcoming months will definitely add a boost to our social calendar, as well as our philanthropic events. At a Hurricane Relief Fundraiser, we sold t-shirts, food and other goods to help raise over $3,500, all of which went to the people affected by the wave of natural disasters last fall.

After we are recognized by Berkeley again, we hope to be able to contribute to the Cal campus, community and culture in ways that up to now have not been possible.

We are a house full of selfless, high-achieving individuals who are leaders on a campus that we love with all our heart.

We’re proud that we placed second in the Lion Trophy for Scholarship last year, and we aim to improve both our academic and philanthropic efforts. We are continuously pushing new generations of Theta Zeta Dekes to be high achievers and to care about our community.

Alpha Omicron’s membership surpasses 30 Brothers.

ALPHA OMICRON – UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO The brothers of the Alpha Omicron chapter at the University of Colorado Boulder are thriving in their third year on campus. After initiating 12 new members in the fall, we are proud to have just over 30 brothers as we begin to say goodbye and good luck to some of the founding members. They created a captivating brotherhood that incorporates all aspects of a Deke.

Our brothers are excelling in all areas of academics including engineering, business, international relations, women and gender studies and in many other fields of study. The men of Alpha Omicron also take advantage of the natural landscape of Colorado by hiking, skiing, climbing and mountain biking.

With the addition of a sustainability chair, we strive to protect our environment.

We hosted two successful formals in the past year, traveling to Aspen and then Crested Butte. We plan to explore more of Colorado through upcoming formals. Our local alumni continue to stay in touch as we have our semi-annual goat dinner at a local restaurant.

Community service continues to be both a goal and a bonding experience for our brothers as we look toward upcoming events including Habitat for Humanity and cleaning up the Boulder Reservoir. We continue to look toward the future as our brotherhood grows and prospers.

OMEGA CHI – UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS No report submitted TAU BETA – SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY This past year at the Tau Beta Colony at Simon Fraser University has been a year of growth, both inside and outside the colony. By the end of this school year, Tau Beta hopes to have a total of 24 actives.

Our reputation continues to expand as we host events and mixers with other groups on campus. We’re also strengthening our DKE bonds, as we connect with brothers near and far. DKE NYU alumni brother Patrick Neil Guimarais reached out to Tau Beta as he visited and met some of our brothers. Two Tau Beta brothers, Noah Guthrie and Steven Robertson, went to California in February and visited DKE’s Theta Zeta chapter at Berkeley. It was great meeting our brethren and swapping DKE stories.

Our Brother Beta, Steven Robertson, made the trek from Vancouver to Washington D.C. to take part in DKE’s second annual Brother Beta Academy, which he said was a really great experience.

He formed an instant bond with the other Brother Betas who came from all over North America to share ideas with each other.

Tau Beta also strengthened its already close relationship with DKE’s Beta Tau chapter at the University of Victoria. Overall, it’s been a great year at Tau Beta, and we believe we are well on our way to creating something special at Simon Fraser.

FORGOTTEN GREATS OF DKE

OSCAR-WINNING FILM DIRECTOR

GEORGE ROY HILL HE MADE TWO OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MOVIES OF THE 20TH CENTURY

By Kevin Cuneo, Gamma ’77

T

he passage of time might have obscured the memories of some of our greatest Dekes, but for many, what they accomplished set the standard for today’s highest achievers. In the case of Oscar-winning film director George Roy Hill, his pairing of Paul Newman and Robert Redford led to two of the best-loved movies of the 20th century.

As late as 1976, Hill was the only director to have two films among the top 10 highest grossing movies of all time. His 1969 film, “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” is credited with reinvigorating the western genre, and his 1973 film, “The Sting,” is considered the best caper comedy of the past 50 years. Both starred Newman and Redford, who enjoyed a close relationship with Hill, a Deke at Phi Yale, class of 1943. “I don’t think George ever received the credit he deserved as a top filmmaker because he was quirky and went against the grain,” Redford said in a 2015 interview. “But he was a brilliant storyteller who knew how to inspire everyone around him.”

Newman, who also starred in Hill’s “Slap Shot,” a film about a small-town professional hockey team in the 1970s, remembered the director in “The Films of George Roy Hill,” a book by Andrew Horton, “as someone who was very good with actors. George had exceptional

18 THE DEKE QUARTERLY | SPRING 2018

taste and he knew how to control actors who are talented but sometimes outrageous,” Newman said. “He knew how to harness that type of energy and bring it down to the point where it’s still inventive but isn’t too big for the screen. He was meticulous, always did his homework, and had excellent story sense.

George was an outstanding director – one of the greatest, I would say. He was the best friend and mentor that anyone could have. He gave everyone a hell of a ride, including himself.”

Born in 1921 to a wealthy Minnesota family that owned the Minneapolis Tribune, Hill became a pilot at 16 and revered the old stunt pilots of the early 1920s. He was also talented musician who combined a love of classical music with a sense of adventure. At Yale, he studied music under composer Paul Hindemith, and became involved in theater and singing.

Newman recalled that Hill owned an antique biplane from 1930 that he would keep near the set during filming. “If an actor was late for a scene, George would invite him to join him for a ride in his plane,” Newman told Horton.

“The offending actor would think that he was going on a pleasant joy ride, but then George would start flying upside down and doing all these crazy stunts,” Newman said. “Finally, when the plane landed and the actor was about to vomit, George would say, ‘Don’t ever be late again or I’ll take you on an even wilder ride.’”

During World War II, Hill served as a transport pilot in the South Pacific.

After the war, he went to Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, to study music and literature. Hill toured for a while as an actor with a Shakespearean repertory company and later landed a role in New York on a popular soap opera. But his acting career was interrupted by the Korean War and Hill was recalled to duty with the U.S. Marines. When he returned to New York in 1953, Hill became a

leading figure in live television, earning Emmy Awards for writing and directing many shows, including a story about the Titanic, “A Night to Remember.” In 1957, he shifted to Broadway and directed the Pulitzer Prize-winning “Look Homeward Angel” and Tennessee Williams’ “A Period of Adjustment.” He later directed the film version of “Adjustment” and cast Jane Fonda in her first major role.

Newman, who died at 83 in 2008, said Hill always had a great eye for talent. “He was peerless at spotting promising young performers, and when the casting began for ‘Butch Cassidy,’ he was adamant about the actor he wanted. The studio was pushing hard for Jack Lemmon to play Sundance, but George insisted on Redford, which, of course, turned out to be the best choice.” Newman noted that Hill was known for defying studio control and tackling challenging material.

His films included Lillian Hellman’s play “Toys in the Attic,” James Michener’s

novel “Hawaii,” and three complex works – Kurt Vonnegut’s “Slaughterhouse-Five,” John Irving’s “The World According to Garp” and John Le Carre’s “The Little Drummer Girl.”

The 1975 film “The Great Waldo Pepper” was close to Hill’s heart because he revered the old barnstorming pilots, but even with Redford’s star power, the movie was not a success. “George gave it everything he had, but the story was not as strong as his vision for the film. I get the impression that people think better of the movie now than they did when it first came out,” said Redford, now 80. That is certainly the case with “Slap Shot,” which ESPN recently ranked among the top five sports films ever made.

Many young actors feared Hill, who had little patience for performers who weren’t prepared. But veterans such as Julie Andrews, who starred in “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” called him “a gem.”

“George was smart and loyal, and nothing

mattered more to him than the work,” Andrews told Horton. “He’s one of the best and most creative directors I ever worked for.”

Critics could be harsh on Hill because he ignored them. “George couldn’t be bothered with playing the Hollywood game,” Newman said. “He never went on talk shows and ignored the press because he said reporters wanted to take up too much of his time. Unlike most directors, he refused to hire a person to handle the press or shape his publicity.

He believed that his movies would speak for themselves.”

Hill did enjoy working with young people, however, and after directing his last film in 1988, he returned to Yale where he taught drama for several years.

Hill, whose movies won 11 Oscars, died at 81 in New York in 2002 after a battle with Parkinson’s disease. “He was a great film director and an even better friend,” Redford said.

GUEST COLUM N

WHY THIS COLLEGE PRESIDENT STARTED A GREEK SYSTEM

By Jim Gray, Beta ’70

I

believe I was the only college president in America in 2011 to actually start a fraternity and sorority system.

Truth be told, most college presidents and chancellors would like to have a magic wand to make them disappear.

But at North Carolina Wesleyan College in Rocky Mount, our campus culture needed the good things that Greek life brings to college life.

It worked, and three sororities and one fraternity continue there. I retired as president in 2014 and remain proud of that counter-intuitive initiative.

The voices against fraternities and sororities are vehemently against them.

Too much drinking, exclusion, hazing. The tragic deaths sadden us all. There is a chorus now singing a song of eradication.

based on research and history: l Alumni must stay involved to oversee and help. Ten years ago I and others founded a UNC fraternity alumni group, and it remains in place today helping to make things better. l The college must see itself as a partner and not an enemy. At UNC, the administration is firm but fair. l There must be strong Interfraternity Councils and Pan Hellenic Councils. Selfgovernance is a critically important part of Greek Life, but no one believes there should not be university oversight and guidance. Be firm but fair, and Greeks will respond positively. l The Greeks must become more diverse.

That is happening slowly but surely as the U.S. itself changes racially. l And finally, the academics of Greeks must go up as they have at UNC.

Don’t!

What Greek life means to members is hard to define, but it centers on brotherhood and sisterhood — having not just friends in college but also brothers and sisters whom you learn to love and rely on. Today at almost 70, a week does not go by that I do not intersect with Delta Kappa Epsilon alumni brothers from UNC Chapel Hill, where I graduated in 1970.

“At North Carolina Wesleyan College in Rocky Mount, our campus culture needed the good things that Greek life brings to college life.”

How to Lead Fraternity and sorority houses break a huge university down to a manageable community. Houses teach their members how to lead and how to follow. They teach community service.

They go on to be the college’s most generous donors and volunteers. And it is a fact that Greeks at UNC have higher GPAs than non-Greeks. Look it up on the UNC website.

Here in North Carolina there are tens of thousands of Greeks and Greek alumni. At UNC, a full one in five undergraduates is a member of a Greek organization. Those 20 THE DEKE QUARTERLY | SPRING 2018

What to Do But what to do to make Greek life better?

The deaths, underage drinking, hazing, and other forms of occasional undergrad stupidity — they can be reduced. Here is how,

You may notice I have not said much about hazing of new members. It is outlawed by fraternizes both national and local, colleges, and state legislatures. But its ugly head rises from time to time. I am convinced from working closely with active brothers, national Greek organizations, and administrators that hazing is in decline and will go to virtually zero in the coming years. It’s that ugly and abhorred.

The next time you nod your head at a news story that calls for abolition of fraternities, first talk to an active member or an alumnus. You will hear emotional explanations of why that bond between Greek brothers and sisters means something special.

You can tell them that their house will be a positive part of their life as long as they live.

And you will see it’s often Greeks who are serving meals at a soup kitchen or raising money at the football stadium gate for children’s cancer. So with many areas of university life or just plain life, the good outweighs the bad.

MYSTIC CIRCLE THOMAS EDWARD PERRY PHI ALPHA ‘72 1952-2016 We were saddened by the death of Ted Perry on January 4, 2016. Ted succumbed too soon to cancer and passed away in Abbotsford, British Columbia surrounded by his close-knit family.

Brother Perry was a Phi Alpha brother who served on the Alumni Association. He formed many friends through the fraternity and maintained and nurtured those friendships throughout his life.

Ted graduated in International Relations and completed his teaching certification through the Faculty of Education at UBC. He became an educator par excellence in Abbotsford where he made his professional home.

While a young teacher, he met Susanna, the love of his life, and together they raised two accomplished sons, both graduates of UBC. In later years Ted completed his Masters of Arts in History at Western Washington University, taught high school, and subsequently became a well-respected principal in the Abbotsford school system.

Ted was an avid sportsman, excelling at tennis, racquetball, floor hockey and football, among other sports. He gave back to his community, coaching countless sports teams and mentoring fellow educators.

Ted served as President of the Sports Hall of Fame in Abbotsford and was a founding member and Historian of the Citadel Club in Abbotsford that raised scholarship funds for university-bound student athletes.

Ted had an engaging, genuine and upbeat personality that attracted people to him. As a result, he made and maintained friendships that lasted. He was the glue that held together numerous circles of friends. He managed to stay connected with all of them with his easy wit and generous comradery.

His Deke brothers and wide circle of friends would all agree that he was the essence of a jolly good fellow. Ted made an impact in every area of his rich life, and we are both proud and grateful to have known him. He is missed by many.

WILLIAM ALEXANDER FORREST JR ETA ’51 1929-2017 “Skip” Forrest, 88, departed this life on Monday, November 27, 2017. He is survived by his wife of 56 years, Barbara Nelson Forrest.

After graduating from the University of Virginia, where he joined DKE, he served in the U.S Army. Skip, who earned his law degree from UVA in 1956, had a remarkable career as a partner at McGuire, Woods & Battle and with A.H. Robins where he held many positions including Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel.

Next to his family, Skip loved the University of Virginia and the special relationships he developed as a Deke. He served in student government as well as on the Cavalier Daily, and as a law student, representing UVA at the National Moot Court Competition in 1955.

His leadership and scholarship were recognized by membership in numerous honorary societies: among them, the Raven Society; Omicron Delta Kappa; and finally, the greatest honor, the Seven Society, revealed only at a member’s death.

Skip’s attachment to the University never waned, and he so enjoyed attending meetings of the Alumni Association’s annual meetings of former national presidents. He served as president of the Alumni Association in 1978-79 and during that tenure considered his most treasured accomplishment the encouragement of the Association for the Jefferson Scholars Program.

Spending the great majority of his life in Richmond, Skip participated fully in his community, earning him membership in the Richmond First Club. Many organizations and governing boards were recipients of his service and leadership.

He was a wonderful listener and usually left occasions with friends and colleagues knowing far more about them than they about him. The many years supporting University sports events were such happy ones, but the best time were the days he

spent hunting birds in the autumn fields and winter duck blinds with his son, Alex, and his well-loved Brittany Spaniels.

CHRISTOPHER THOMAS MORRISON SIGMA RHO ’71 1949-1917 Chris Morrison died of pancreatic cancer on May 19, 2017 in Coral Gables, Florida. Chris is survived by his wife of 42 years, Debbie, who attended all the big Stanford games with Chris.

Chris joined DKE in 1967 and maintained strong ties with the Fraternity and his brothers over the years. He attended Stanford in France in 1969.

After Stanford, Chris received a degree in International Management from The Thunderbird School. Chris began his career with Hyatt Hotels in San Francisco where he met his wife. They traveled the country and settled in Coral Gables, Florida, their home for over 30 years.

Chris was a Stanford Football fanatic.

His father, Ben, was on the 1941 Stanford Rose Bowl team that beat Nebraska. Chris became team manager, so he could be close to the excitement surrounding college football. He was thrilled to be on the front lines of Stanford football’s resurgence with back-to-back Rose Bowls wins in 1971 and 1972. After graduation Chris traveled the country with friends to attend Stanford Football games. Chris was such a fan that Debbie’s and his license plates are “BEAT CAL” and “BEAT USC”.

CHARLES WILLIAM LANE III TAU LAMBDA ’54 1932-2017 Charles William Lane III, age 85, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on November 15, 2017.

football teams alongside Jim Cain and Bob Pettit (ZZ ’54). Charlie obtained his pilot’s license in high school and saved enough money to buy a piper cub airplane, much to the chagrin of his mother, especially when he frequently buzzed the house.

He joined DKE at Tulane, graduating in 1954 with a BBA. Subsequent studies at Tulane Law School were interrupted by a call to active Air Force duty where he became a jet and transport pilot. Years later he retired from the Air National Guard as a Lieutenant Colonel.

During his duty at Ellington Air Force Base, he met his future wife, Shirley Lou Henderson.

He joined the Jones Walker law firm after graduating from Tulane Law School in 1959, specializing in anti-trust and litigation, where he was Executive Committee Chairman for many years. He remained at Jones Walker his entire career.

Charlie belonged to many social and carnival organizations, particularly enjoying his rides in the New Orleans’ Rex Parade each year, and served on numerous boards in the community. Known for his quiet wisdom and dry wit, Charlie was a true gentleman, willing to offer a helping hand whenever needed.

When he wasn’t on the tennis courts, he was on the golf course, skiing in Colorado, or fervently watching football, particularly Tulane, LSU and the New Orleans Saints, of which he was a lifetime ticket holder.

GEORGE WILSON VOELKER ZETA ZETA ’67 1960-2017 George Voelker of New Orleans, LA passed away on December 15, 2017, at the age of 57 from complications following lung transplant surgery. He was born in Lake Providence, LA. George attended Louisiana State University, where he was a Deke and a Friar and formed many lifelong friendships. He was a successful entrepreneur and investor and spent his adult life in New Orleans.

In 1995, he co-founded Rice Voelker, a highly regarded financial services firm.

George had a unique and unforgettable personality that made a lasting impact on

those who knew him. He was an avid outdoorsman who was most comfortable in the marshes of South Louisiana or on any golf course. Some of his favorite places were his fishing camp in Delacroix, the woods in Lake Providence, or any gathering of friends and family where stories, both true and somewhat amplified, were being told.

George was also an avid reader of history and fiction. He particularly enjoyed Southern fiction writers such as William Faulkner. He was a generous person, helping those in need in a manner that didn’t expect or even allow recognition, and a devoted father who treasured the time he spent with his children, George Jr. and Maggie.

JAMES L. BELLIS GAMMA PHI ’44 1923-2018 James Bellis of Vero Beach, FL and Bedminster, NJ died peacefully February 11, 2018.

Brother Bellis, who was born in Oradell, NJ on his family’s farm, graduated from Wesleyan University where he played soccer and was on the diving team. Some of his most fond memories were at Wesleyan where he served as Brother Beta of DKE. Mr. Bellis began his career with Union Camp Corporation and relocated to Chicago, where he met the belle of the ball, Blair Butler. The newlyweds settled in New Vernon, New Jersey to raise their family. Mr. Bellis enjoyed a 30-year career as an executive in the corrugated paper industry, retiring in 1975 as Vice President of Great Northern Nekoosa Corporation (Georgia-Pacific).

Upon retirement, Jim became chairman of the Blauvelt Demarest Foundation and the Hiram Blauvelt Wildlife Art Museum. Due to his continued commitment, the Hiram Blauvelt Wildlife Art Museum is to this day one of the premier museums in the country of its genre. Jim served as President of the Harding Township Civic Assoc. and as chairman of the Board of Adjustment. He was a founding member of the Mendham Valley Gun Club, and a dedicated supporter of the Purnell School, Pottersville, New Jersey.

He will be most remembered by his family on the farmland of New Jersey, atop his tractor or with a rake or tool in his hands.

JOHN INMAN BLUE, SR. LAMBDA DELTA ’54 1926-2018 John Blue, Sr. passed away February 26, 2018, in Houston at the age of 91.

He was raised in the penthouse of the Drake Hotel in Chicago and would often tell the family stories of his youth growing up in the city and ice skating on the local lakes. He graduated from Culver Military Academy in Indiana where he was a member of the Black Horse Troop, Class of 1944.

Drafted into the Army during his sophomore year at Princeton University, he served in the counterintelligence core, specializing in Japanese, and was assigned to both Japan and Korea. While in the Army, John earned the WWII Victory Medal and The Army of Occupation Medal Japan.

After his honorable discharge from the Army he finished his college degree at SMU where he joined DKE. He remembered his tenure at SMU fondly, especially his time as a Deke and meeting lifelong DKE brothers.

While in Dallas he met Hazel Hickerson and never left her side, celebrating 58 years of marriage. After graduation, John worked in the insurance industry in Dallas, successfully raising the revenues of several local Dallas firms.

He was a member of Highland Park Presbyterian Church in Dallas, served as President of the Dallas Scottish Society, and was considered an expert in Scottish/ Irish Genealogy, never hesitating to help anyone interested in learning more about their family history. His sixth son James, remembers, “Dad never took to computers, instead opting for a ribbon typewriter with whiteout always nearby to correct typos, when corresponding with people about their heritage. Goodnight Father, fair winds and following seas.”
