THE OPPORTUNITY AND CHALLENGE TO DO BETTER Editor's Note: The following observations on Delta U psi/on were excerpted from the President's A ddress to the 142nd Leadership Conference and Convention. . I am not at all satisfied with the overall results of the operations of Delta Upsilon for 1975-'76. Certainly progress was made over prior years in many ways, and we had many chapters with exceptionally good results, but there were too many areas both at Headquarters and at chapter levels where we fell short of potential and where better results could have been obtained. More Expansion Needed
There was not enough expansian; there were not enough pledges and there were too few initiates. There are too many chapters with slipshod operations, and too many chapters with barely marginal results. Too many chapters were involved in incidents that caused them to fall into the bad graces with their college administrations. More Alwnni Support Required
Financial Reporting Necessary
There were too many chapters breaking our Fraternity Laws in failing to file monthly operating statements and annual budget with the Headquarters. Chapters have many ;responsibilities and their alumni can help, but alumni can't produce a blooming chapter unless the chapter furnishes the fertile ground for this. I am asking . each Delta Upsilon chapter to wake up and become a chapter that can be admired for its accomplishments, We need to continue to study the long-range financial needs of Delta Upsilon in order to be able to provide the fraternity experience for succeeding generations.

While we netted more money last year from alumni support than in prior years, we failed to raise what surely must be possible for us. We didn't get to put into effect many of the proposals of the Planning for Tomorrow Committee because of limited financial resources. 82

Artist's conception of the signing of the articles of Phi Beta Kappa in the Apollo Room of the Raleigh Tavern in Williamsburg, Virginia from a mural in the Sigma Alpha Epsilon Levere Memorial Temple.
Kappa preserved at the College of William and Mary and printed at Williamsburg in 1896. Social and festive anniversary occasions were celebrated then, as they are today since the restmation of the facility, in the Apollo Room of the Raleigh Tavern in Colonial Williamsburg. This first Phi Beta Kappa chapter or "alpha", as it was called, had a short life, when the approach of Cornwallis' army forced the College to close, During those formative years th e group had seventy-seven meetings, fifty men were adm itted to membership, and charters were granted for new branches or alphas. The chapter at William and Mary was revived in 1851, became inactive early in the Civil "Var and was reorganized in 1893. Agitation against secret societies in 1831 caused the Harvard chapter of · Phi Beta Kappa to voluntarily disclose their secrets. Other Phi Beta Kappa chapters

From Williamsburg and Back The Founding of Fraternities The American College Fraternity is the single most enduring student organization in higher education in North America. It has survived wars, economic catastrophies, social and political revolu · tions, continuing to grow and change with each new genel'ation of college students. Students of fraternities know that Phi Tleta Kappa, the first such college society, was established on December 5, 1776 in Williamsburg, Virginia on the campus of the College William and Mal"Y.! DELTA UPSILON QUARTERLY'
Today the . college fraternity movement has grown from that single, small literary society to 5,000 college chapters on 650 campuses in North America. During the thirty years since World War II, fraternities have grown more than sixty percent. Scmes of new chapters have been installed every year. What distinguished Phi Beta Kappa from other college organizations is that it was the first society to have a Greek \ctter name, and in its first years at William and Mary it introduced the "essential characteristics of such .societies -an oath of secrecy, a . badge, mottoes in Latin and Greek, a code of laws, an elaJ,orate form of initiation, a seal, and a special handclasp or grip."2 The founders of fraternities and sororities drew their inspiration for rituals from the existing ecclesiastical liturgies; greek and roman mythology; oth er fraternal orga nizations; and contempmary literature. Others followed the basic pattern set by the founders of Phi Beta Kappa in adopting greek letter names, key style badges, secret oaths and mottoes, initiations, seals and chapter meetings that debated the issues of the day. Debates on such topics as "The cause and origin of Society," "Whether a wise State hath any Interest nearer at Heart than the Education of Youth," "Whether anything is . more dangerous to Civile Liberty in a Free State than a standing army in time of Peace" were subjects listed in the original records of Phi Beta

eliminated secrecy from their purposes and Phi Beta Kappa gradually became known as a honor society for distinguished academic achievement, a position it has retained to this day. 3 The Union Triad Fifty years later in tlie fall of 1825, The Kappa Alpha Society, later to be known as Kappa Alpha Northern, was established at Union ' College, Schenectady, New York. It is the oldest of the Greek-letter college fraternities with a continuous record of existence. Kappa Alpha met with faculty and administration resistance at first, but it gained increasing popularity and acceptance among students. ·Two other fraternities, Sigma Phi and Delta Phi were founded at Union in 1827. These three fraternities are known as the "Union Triad" and Union College, also the founding place of three other fraternities (Psi Upsilon, 1833; Chi Psi, 1841; and Theta Delta Chi, 1847) is known as the "Mother of Fraternities." Sigma Phi was the first fraternity to add a second chapter thereby gaining a claim to the pattern of a "national" organization following the model earlier established by Phi Beta Kappa in granting charters to other collegiate chapters. Kappa Alpha entered Williams College, Williamstown, Massachusetts to found a chapter there in 1833 and a third Sigm a Phi chapter was started at Williams College in 1834.
83
\' This phenomenon persisted scarcely a decade, from 1826 to 1836. It was towahl the end of the period that it influenced the colleges in which secret Greek-letter societies had been established. The opposition to these, which had been isolated and weak -at first, became intense. The hostility was directed, as was that in the country at large, to only one alleged evil in fraternities: their secrecy. It was in this milieu that an anti-secret-today simply nonsecret-fraternity was founded."4
Founding the Social Fratemity Largely to protest the growing subrosa influence of these early secret fraternities in all affairs of Williams College, thirty \ men from the three lower classes met inl the Freshman Recitation Room in West College Hall on the evening of November 4, 1834, there to form what they called The Social Fraternity. The preamble to the constitution, as written by Brothers Brown and Clark, has remained essentially the same ever since: . . ." for maintaining the diffusing liberal principles and f01" promoting the great objects of social ' and literary improvement." They declared opposition to the existing secret societies, which they described as ". . . calculated to destroy the harmony of the college, (and) to create distinctions not founded upon merit." The development of this unique, antisecret Social Fraternity at Williams, from whence we trace the origins of what later became known as Delta Upsilon Fraternity, was a reflection of the sentiments against secrecy prevailing in the nation at that time. The historian of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Dr. Joseph W . Walt observes: "Delta Upsilon was d ifferent, a consequence of a wave of anti-fraternity sentiment that threatened to destroy the few infant fraternities that existed in the early 1830's. Hostility to Greekletter societies was a part of a larger social movement in America against all secret organizations. It was an amalgam of frontier democracy and ' religious revivalism. This was the heyday of the anti-Masonic party, a political organization that had grown out of entil'ely nonpolitical conditions." The Masons, 'Valt explains, flourished in the United States during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In 1826 when William Morgan disclosed Masonic secrets, there followed a dramatic confrontation, abduction and murder that aroused Americans against the Masons. Little did it matter that most of the nation's early leaders had been Masons. "Out of this widespread movement against secrecy grew the anti-Masonic party which became sufficiently effecti ve tha tit won goverriorshi ps for th e anti-Masons in Vermont and Pennsylvania, and other 'offices as well.

The Raleigh Tavern, once the political and business activity hub of life i11 Colonial WilliamsbuTg today looks out on the Testored community that is little cha11ged fTom those days when the fmtemity s)'stem was founded thel-e with the establishment of Phi Beta Kappa, the first Greek-letteT college fraternity. Distinguishing Charateristics of Delta Upsilon In order of establishment, Delta Upsilon is the sixth oldest fraternity and the first to be non-secret. The most distinguishing characteristic of the fraternity remains its non-secret nature that separates it from all other fraternities in that there is no secret motto, ritual, handshake. In that -a motto, ritual, seal and laws exist and other chapters have been chartered, the fraternity took the basic form of its eadiest antecedent, Phi Beta Kappa, as did other fraternities established later. In addition to non-secrecy, Delta Upsilon retains several other unique identifying characteristics of organization not shared by other fraternities. Most distinctive the haternity has the only bicameral legislative organization. The undergraduate legislative body, the convention ; retains the undergra,duate character that it h as had from the earlies t days of th e fraternity. The " upper house" or Assembly of Trustees, is the other fraterni ty legisla tive body. Laws are made when both the Convention and Assembly concur. Thus, undergraduates and alumni do not meet together as is the custom in other groups. Chapters elect both convention delegate and are involved in the election of the trustee, who represents the chapter members in the Assembly of Trustees meeting, Both convention and assembly are held on an annual basis. The Trustees of the Assembly serve as electors for the officers and directors and the members of the Undergraduate Advisory Board , chosen in province elections, serve as the electors for the undergraduate voting member of the Board of Directors.
The ann ual meeting of Assembly also provides an annual meeting of the fraternity, incol'porated as a not-for-profit membership organization under the laws of the State of New York since 1909. In 1867, Delta Upsilon published one of the first college fraternity magazines, o Ill' RecOl'd. It appeared intermittently ill the 1870's as the Univenity Review"a quarterly magazine devoted to the interests of American -colleges and pu blished by the Delta Upsilon Fraternity." Continuous publication of a magazine was achieved with the Delta Upsilon QUal路tel路I)', first appearing in December of 1882. The organization of the fraternity provides for a President and a Chairman of the Board, two top volunteer officers. The President is concerned with ritualistic matters, appOintment of Governors and alunmi D eputies who assist him at the chapter level, and serves as the presiding officer of the Assembly of Trustees annual meeting. The Chairman of the Board chairs the meetings of the directors, and is the chief elected officer of administration. It is the chairman who makes appointments to standing and special committees of the fraternity , subject to the approval of the board. Undergraduates and alumni serve as full members of most special and standing committees of the fraternity and directors and officers are typica lly chairmen of the standing committees in Delta Upsilon. A spirit of openness and innovation has characterized the development and activities of Delta Upsilon since its inception and contemporary program development such as the "Un pledge," our trademarked program of membership education, and cultural programming arc but two examples of the contemporary emphasis of the fraternity

taking of Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, and the Fraternity Executives Association_ It has the endorsement of the National Interfraternity Conference. The Commission seeks to define the directions of the fraternity movement in the years ahead. Position papers were prepared dealing with the fraternity's contribution to campus environment; peJ'Sonal growth and development of members; contribution to the sense of institutional community; and academic and cultural growth of members. During the summer two task force groups met in Bloomington, Indiana. They considered the source documents and discussed their own ideas of what the fraternity of tomorrow will be like in the changing social, ' economic and government structure. Members of the task force groups included college presidents; student personnel vice-presidents including O. Edward Pollock, Virginia '51, vice-president for student services at Wright State Univel'sity, Dayton, Ohio, and chairman of the board of Delta Upsilon; fraternity presidents; alumni of distinction at large; and undergraduate fraternity leaders. The results of the task force group meetings will be released at the Bicentennial Seminars to take place in Williamsburg, Virginia November 29 and 30th, just before the four conference interfraternity gatherings there and the meeting of Phi Beta Kappa to celebrate the bicentennial. So a far different, more diverse, stronger fraternity movement returns to the site of the founding of the first Greek-Letter college group,- just two hundred years later to ponder the future and the opportunities tha t lie ahead.

A mid-day break brought the traditional Career Seminar in a n ew format presided over b y Brother Watkins and members of the Undergraduate Advisory Board who. asked and fi elded the questions to the Careers speaker Robert .J. Fratangelo, Louisville '66, President of Careercraft, Inc. of New York. Seminars continued until 5:45 p.m. when individual provinces met with their delegations and province ' governors in attendance. After dinner the opening convention session was chaired by Robert Dahlsgaard, Jr., ,Bradley '63, returning for a second year as conven.tion chairman, assisted by vice-chairman G.

Convention received th e reports of the standing committees of the fraternity and heard and approved the reports ot the Chairman of the Board, Presiden t, Treas-
II reI' and Executive Secretary. Brother Pollock paid special tribu te to the work of the President, Brother W. D. Watkins, and the members of the Board of Directors for their contributions to Delta Upsilon. He announced that the board had approved a new title of executive director for the executive in recognition of his accomplishments and service. In the ' report of the president (highlights appear in the President's column in this issue) Brother Watkins said that he hoped for better levels o·f performance in every sector of the fraternity. The Treasurer, Brother Cheatham, pointed out the salient features of the audited financial report, indicated that further increases in fees would be n ecessary to sustain programs and services to chapters in view of inflation and rising fixed costs over which the fraternity has Ii ttle or no control. Delegates approved a proposal to simplify the method of selecting chapter t.rustees, resolved in favor of continuing growth, honored Past President Charles F. J ennings, Marietta '31, who was attending his thirtieth convention, and defeated a proposal for coed· membership. Saturday morning's program included awards theatre presentations by Richard Moran on a multi-media approach to fraternity; L. D. William Luckow on alcohol use and abuse; J. David Nelson on planning and the high cost of incremental planning; and a th eme-setting film on change to introduce the theme of th e 1977 regional leadership seminars and the 1977 Leadership Conference anti Convention. Th e Saturday Seminars featuring Province 7 Governor Dave Maguire, Southern lllinois '73, discussing parliamentary procedure and meeting organization techniques; educational development, a bold new approach to chapter cultural and membership education programs by L. D. William Luckow, North Dakota '71; and chapter alumni relations seminar with H. Karl Huntoon, Illinois '72, completed the leadership conference. Concluding the progi'am, the awards lunch eon ' found the Windsor Ballroom awash in bicentennial decor as the final send-off for the program. Officers and directors were introduced by Richard Moran, Rutgers '72, toastmaster and they presented recognition and awards to chapters. (Sec the awards listing thal follows.) With the singing of the Ode, led by Province 12 Governor C. 'Valter Huffine, Washington '29, and accompanied by Lewis D.

By Dennis H. Cheatham, Treasurer
The fraternity's total revenue for fiscal 1976 increased .$41,976 or 13.54% over 1975. The largest increase was in pledge and initiation fees of $13,589.00, This increase resulted both from more new initiates and from the $5.00 increase in fees for both pledges and initiates which was approved last August. Interest income from chapter loans and short-term investments increased $10,611.00. A significant part of this was delinquent interest on chapter loans. In fact the only decline in l'evenue categories was in the "Other Revenue" classification. That was as a result of a 1975 one time refund of prior year pension expense and the proceeds of the Franklin Mint Commemorative Plate program. We will make special offerings of this type from time to time to produce unique products and some revenue ' for the fraternity. Total expense before depreciation increased $37,280.00 or 12,64%. Expenses increased in almost every category with the greatest increase being in travel of .$9,319 of which .$8,515.00 was the travel expense for the convention, regional leadership seminal'S and the assembly. There was improvement in legal and audit accounts and the gcneral category "other." Much of the increase in travel expense was as a result of increasing the transportation reimbursement rate. The continuation of the current financial trends requires that we increase and expand our sources of revenue and continue to attempt to minimize expense increases whenever possible. Prompt l'eportilig of pledges and initiates and prompt payment is vital to the proper financial management of the fraternity.
Our independent auditors Price Waterhouse & Co. has ex路 amined and audited our Statement of Finkncial Position, State路 ment of Revenue and Expenses and Changes in Fund Balances as of June 30, 1975 .and June 30, 1976. The format of the fraternity's financial statements is in accordance and follows the new guidelines set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' (AICPA) for not-for路profit voluntary organizatioris. As you can see ' in the Statement of Financial Position the composition of the fraternity's assets have changed significantly during the past fiscal year. Chapter loans totalling .$90,824 were repaid during the year and accordingly our temporary cash investment increased by about the same amount. In addition the fraternity headquarters building remodeling and .equipment purchase resulted in an increase of office equip. ment after depreciation of $8,483.00, Permanent Trust Fund assets at cost declined .$12,400, representing net securities losses of .$13,400 and a transfer of .$1,000 from the operating fund. The installation of modern kitchen facilities at the headquarters has greatly extended its usefulness for a variety of alumni and undergraduate seminars and standing committee meetings, and the cost of serving meals at the headquarters has declined as a result. The four year comparison of Revenue, 'Expense and Securities Transactions indicates a continuation of the favorable operating trend which was identified in our 1975 report..

Opinion of the Independent Accountants To t he Directors of Delta Upsilon Fraternity \\Ie have examined the statements of financial posItIOn of Delta Upsilon Fraternity as of June 30, 1976 and 1975, and the related statements of revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances and functional expenses for the years then ended. Our examinations were made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and accordingly included such ~ests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. As ex plained in Note 2 to the financial statements, the I'rate ntit y records marketable securities at cost, which exceeds the market value by $148,000 at June 30, 1976. It is not possible at this time to determine the ultimate loss, if any, that may result Oil the disposition of these securities. In our opinion, subject to th e effects, if any, on the financial statements of the ultimate resolution of the matter described in. th e preceding paragraph, th e accompanyi~g financial statements examined by us present fairly the 'financial position of De lta Upsilon Fraternity at Jun e 30, 1976 and 1975, and its revenues and expenses and changes in fund balances and its functional expenses for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied .

Investment transactions are made from time to time based un the adv ice of the Fraternity'S investment committee and its advisors. Although it is the Fraternity's intention, as in prior years, to hold these securities as long. term investments and not to use the principal amount of the fund to finance current , operations, certain of the investmen ts may be disposed of in the coming year if. in the opinion of the committee, such dis· positions are in the best interest of the Fraternity. Because of fluctuations in the marke t value of these securities, it is not possible, at this time, to determine the ultimate loss, if any, that might result from future investment transactions.

Comment on Fraternity
Promises For Keeping The occasion of the 200th anniversary of the founding of Phi Beta Kappa, the first college fraternity, from whence all college fraternities owe their ancestry, is an important event because it demonstrates that the college fraternity is the most enduring student organization connected with higher education in North America. Our college fraternity system has grown and prospered because it imparts something unique, something personal, and something of value to each new fraternity generation. To preserve and strengthen the Delta Upsilon experience on every college campus where there is a chapter should be an objective of high priority as the fraternity-movement enters its third century. What about others? A glance at the report of the President in this issue will indicate that while we have managed survival through the period of turbulence and questioning, there remains a great deal of unfinished bus,iness. Most of the new projects that we know are needed, that we would like to begin, are hampered for lack of funds. -As a high priority we must build alumni support to enable us to bridge the gap between limited endowment and undergraduate fees. -We must raise a leadership fund to enrich the leadership education activities of Delta Upsilon. -We must increase the limited endowment of the fraternity with special attention to capital fund-raising, bequests and deferred giving. -We must continue and improve the Quarte1'ly and other alumni communications; build up alumni activities; and continue to work to strengthen every undergraduate chapter. Why are these special imperatives deserving of our attention and support at this happy occasion of the start of the third century of the fraternity system? The coming decline in enrollment in undergraduate higher education makes strengthening our resources and our chapters a very high priority if the fraternity and your chapter is to survive the days ahead. We have continued, grown and prospered because of the vision and dedication of those fraternity members before us. Now, we have the imperative of planning and building for tomorrow to ensure that the Delta Upsilon experience will be valued and enriching for tomorrow's undergraduates and today's alumni. Fraternally yours,

Truman B. Clark
Lou Holtz The New York Jets picked Louis L. "Lou" Holtz, Kent State . '58, as their new coach in February of this year. Holtz had been head coach at North Carolina State previous to joining the New York Jets. Holtz faces the task of bringing the Jets back from their worst season in history, but says he is looking forward to the challenge. "To me the delight in coaching always comes in creating and not in maintaining," says Holtz, who turi1ed the North Carolina State program completely around and guided them to an Atlantic Coast Conference record of four sraight bowl appearances. Jets general manager Al Ward said Holtz was strongly recommended by foot路 ball people at all levels-players, scouts, college coaches and pro coaches. "There is something about . Lou Holtz that just clicks," says Ward. . Truman B. Clark, Ohio State' 42 Senior Vice-President of the Tappan Com路 pany headquartered in Mansfield, Ohio is a 2 K-year Tappan veteran. He joined the company in 1946 and spent four years as a sales representative in the Southwest. In 1950, he moved hack to Tappan headquarters in Mansfield a~ Manager of the War Products Division.

In April of 1962, Clark was moved to Los Angeles as Executive Vice-President and General Manager of the O'Keefe & Merritt and also was named to the Tappan Company Board of Directors. In 1967, Clark was moved back to Mansfield headquarters as President of the Tappan Division, and in December of 1971 became President of the Tappan Appliance Group, one of three groups within the Tappan Company. Clark was named to his present corporate position as Senior Vice-President of the Tappan Company in October 1974.

J. Peter Gordon, Toronto '43, was moved from president to chairman of the board of Steel Co. of Canada in April of this year. He retained his position as chief executive officer and is head of Canada's biggest steel company, one of the nation's ten largest industrial corporations, internationally acknowledged as a leader in steel production technology. Gordon graduated with honors in mechanical engineering from the University of Toronto and was president of the fraternity chapter there his senior year." After graduation he joined the army and served overseas with the Royal Canadian Electrical Engineers. vVhen he returned from overseas he started at Stelco as a laborer in the boiler shop and then the boat salvage yard, and was foreman within eight months. In total, it took 27 years for Gordon to go from scrapyard laborer to -Stelco chief. Gordon is greatly admired by the 23,000 Stelco employees. He ~ays it was never ambition that drove him, "but the challenge of the job. I suppose my grea tes t personal asset is the con tin uing interest I have for everybody who works ' for this company. And it's been transformed into an effort by those people in turn. I've tried to build an atmosphere that allows people to do their best. That's my primary interest"

Challenges Abound for DU Leadership Consultants Editol"s Note: Lewis D. GI'egoI'Y, Kallsas '75, was a membel' of tlte Fl'atenzity's cOllslIltallt staff fol' tlte 1975-'76 yeaI'.

He wl'ites abollt some of lzis expel'iellces as a membel' of tlte COIISIIltallt staff. The experiences of a leadership consultant visiting chapters of the Fraternity are filled with stimulating challenges and excitem ent of traveling throughout th e United States and Canada . My tour of duty took me to more than 45 chapters of Delta Upsilon in 16 states and one province. I enjoyed e very minute of it. The schedule is a vigorous one. Every three days found m e in a different city to visit another college or university DU chapter. Friendships had to be made quickly and work accomplished at the same time. Every place is somewhat different amI the problems varied from chapter to chapter. Three months of training at the Internation al Headquarters and under· graduate responsibilities prepared me for the time of my life. The main purpose of a leadership consultant, an idea which was conceived by undergraduates, is to exchange programs a nd methods among chapters and suggest ways a chapter might improve existing areas of operations. As an outside observer, I had the objectivity to look at the rush program, finances, scholarship, pledge education and the administratio n of the chapter and offer advice on techniques that have been tried and been successful in other chapters.
1976-'77 Field Staff Assignments Announced by DU Executive Director W. A. Butler,' Jr. For the 1976·'77 school year, Della Upsilon ' will have on e of its more experi enced professional staff teams working in the field visiting chapters, working with chapter revivals, colonies, pe titioning groups and alumni development. The staff appointments announced by W. A. Butler, Jr., CAE, Executive Director were. approved by the Board of Directors at their June and August meetings. Retuming for a fourth year on the staff is David N. Novelli, Rutgers '73, Assistant Executive Director. Novelli will divide his time between special fi eld assignments and headquarters administrative responsibilities. Robert L. Tyburski , Colgate '74, a three-year veteran field visitor has been given new assignments as Assistant to the Executive Director. H e will work on growth projects, chapter visitation and a lumn'i development acti vi ties.
Ion
A misconception of the leadership consultant is that he might be trying to judge the chapter and report on the activi ties for fraternity awards. Nothing could be further from our job description. W e are to help and provide a service to th e . chapters, so each can be the best possible fraternity. The strength of the international fratemity is the strength of the individual chapter and we want to make each chapter realize the potentials for excellence. Living four years in the Kansas chapter house wasn't enough fraternity for m e. I wanted to attend more fratemity events, more chapter meetings and meet DU's around North America. My wishes came true . If another job ·has more activities in as many different cities, I would like to know what it is. ~ met more than a thousand Delta U's, ate more pizza and hamburgers, stopped in more airports and rod e more buses than most people will do in a lifetime. And hopefully, th e six page reports on evel'y chaptel' we _wrote helped improve operations of the chapters. Hearing favorable comments from ch apters that an idea worked or that a problem area was solved was exciting. A regular visit to a chapter consists of the following activities. A le tter from the executive director informed th e chapter of my arrival date and the main purpose of the visit. When travel arrangements have been made I called the chapter president to ask for a ride from the airport or bus terminal to th e chapter house. Each day is fill ed talking with th e chapter officers to understand the accomplishments and problems of each office. Th e exchange of information allowed m e to get a feel for the chapter a tmosphere so as to make plenty of suggestions at a chapter meeting usually scheduled . Visiting the advisor to fraternities and local alumni is also included in the three
day VISIt. The alumnus counselors are usually the most valuable people the chapter have to help - th em and th ey have insights on the al'eas that need concentration . This helps me write a report that the men of th e chapter will lise to improve operations. An amazing aspect of the job is the closeness I felt to the men that I m et. The human relations aspects arc strong in fraternities a nd broth erhood is the common bond of all members of D elta Upsilon. When th e three days were over, it was always sad to leave, but anoth er chapter experi ence was waiting. If you've l'ead this far, I'm sure ·y ou want specific chapter experiences mentioned. "Within th e space provided, it is im p ossible to name all th e chap tel's, bu t each on e has a place in my memory. N ever will I forget th e street da nce in downtown ''''anensburg at Central Missouri State or the pumpkin carving contest with a sorority at Iowa State after my alm a mater beat the Cyclones. The day after KU heat Oklahoma, I arrived in the middle of a Ohio State chapter meeting in which the men gave me a standing ovation because I was a Jayhawk . The Bucknell chapter ti es with the Michiga n chapter for the best parties I was lucky enough to attend. Helping with the Penn State Christmas tree was also a highlight: Spending three weeks in Raleigh, helping establish the North Carolina State colony were where the closest friendships were made. The men at North Carolina, Chapel Hill , showed m e the sights and helped trem endously. Good memories of good times last a lifetime and so docs the brotherhood of the fraternity experience. Missing plan es and buses, eating mystery meat, trying to fake an answer to a question I didn't know, a re now funny to me. Th ey too are logged in th e experience of a lead ership consultant.
Two new memb ers of the Leadership Consultant staff arc first year staffers Craig R. Campbell, North Dakota '76 and Warren P. Nesbitt, 1976 graduate of th e University of Wisconsin, Madison. All members of the Delta Upsilon staff are graduates of the Indiana University Interfraternity Institute and th e headquarters three month intensive staff training program.

The Delta Upsilon Group Life Plan ...
A surprisingly economical way to provide financial security for your 路family! Officially sponsored and endorsed by Delta Upsilon
The impact of inflation on your financial security. It makes very little difference how you've provided for your financial security (life insurance, savings or investments) ... the fact is that inflation is shrinking the buyingpowerofyour "nest egg". Let's take your present life insurance as an example. If you bought a $15,000 life insurance policy in 1967, it would be worth only a little over $9,000 in today's dollars, according to the Consumer Price Index. Those benefits will buy $ 6,000 less today than you may have planned! .
The Delta Upsilon Sponsored Group Life Plan can help offset what inflation has eroded. You can keep yourself and your family protected with quality group term life insurance ... at a cost so reasonable, you're invited to compare this plan with any other policies available.
Plan Features $15,000 of group term Iife insurance is available ... or you may double your benefit to $30,000. . Choose $15,000 of Group Term Life Insurance (Plan 15) or twice that amount for $30,000 of coverage (Plan 30). This Plan gives you the flexibility to build your estate with the Plan that meets your needs, and fits your budget.
Double indemnity in case of accidental death. In the event of accidental death, an amount equal to your life insurance face amount will be paid in addition to your life insurance.
Dismemberment benefits for accidental loss of hands, feet or eyes. An amount equal to your life insurance will be paid for the loss of both hands, feet or the sight of both eyes. One half of your life insurance amount will be paid for the loss of one hand, foot, or sight of one eye.
You do riot have to die to collect life insurance benefits . . If you become disabled before you reach age 60 and if it appears after 3 contimious months that you'll be disabled for life, the Company will pay you the face amount of your life insurance in monthly installments of $17.70 f0r each $1,000 of face amount. These benefits will be paid for 60 months, as long as you remain disabled . The face amount of your life insurance will be reduced by the amount paid to you.
You pay nothing for your coverage if you become disabled. If you've been totally disabled for 9 consecutive months before reaching age 60, your insurance will continue and you'll pay nothing for it as long as you remain disabled under the terms of the policy .
