12 A FATHER & SON LEGACY To celebrate Father’s Day, a father and son share their story about having the special bond of brotherhood. The father is Matt Rose (Missouri 1980), a
Gamma-Kappa alumni brother and the CEO and chairman of BNSF Railway. His son is Phil Rose (Texas Christian 2011), the former Iota-Pi chapter president and a 2011 graduate from Texas Christian University. By Tad Lichtenauer (Denison)
15 A MASTER OF SURF, TACOS & VIBE Wing G. Lam (San Diego State 1984), co-owner of Wahoo’s Fish Tacos, talks about his time in Lambda Chi and how it helped him achieve success. With 50 locations, the Wahoo’s story begins in 1988, when three brothers, Wing, Ed and Mingo, combined their love of surf and food to create a restaurant with an eclectic Mexican/Brazilian/Asian menu and a Hawaiian north-shore vibe.
