PLOW CULTURE AND

PROGRESS

By the R everend Charles D. Spotts

National Chaplain

Recently a visiting anthropologist spoke to one of my seminars in philosophy. His main thesis was that civilization began when man moved from horticulture (when one man with a hoe or a digging stick was the only power available for cultivation of the soil) to plow culture (when a horse, or eight-man power, was avai lable) . H e insisted that civilization grows as more power or energy becomes avai lable for man. The contemporary or atomic stage, therefore, represents an advanced form of civilization because man has now harnessed the almost inde­scribable power wrapped up in the atom.

This anthropologist insisted that, in spite of the advancement man has made m power civilization, man has not made any moral progress; that, in the area of human relations and the pursuit of the good, we are at about the same level of achievement as were our ancestors of three thousand years ago.

Twenty years ago Lecomte Du Noiiy wrote Human Destiny, in which he presented his impassioned belief that man must use the spiritual power with which he is endowed to escape the disaster threatening the world today. Here a physicist of the first magnitude gives to mankind a pattern of progress in the fabric of which science and religions faith are interwoven. The secret of man's progress is not to be found in plow culture, nor in atomic power, but in the in­dwelling power of the divine spirit within him. Our only hope is the Easter hope the hope of the resurrection of a new living.

Gamma Omicron Chapter Is Installed at

California State College at Fullerton,

87th Charter Grant of Phi Kappa Tau

By Ralph A. Luciani, Gamma Omicron

Q n September 18, 1966, the Fullerton Colony became the Gamma Omicron

chapter of Phi Kappa Tau, when it was granted the eighty-seventh charter.

Official ceremonies for this event began at 1:30 in the afternoon with a reception at the Gamma Omicron house. Represen­tatives from the college administration, other fraternities, sororities, alumni and national officers of Phi Kappa Tau wit­nessed the event of ninety-four signatures on the charter. This climaxed the after­noon affairs of reception, open house and charter signing.

That evening at the Saddleback Inn, in Santa Ana, California, the charter was officially presented by Jack L . Anson, na­tional secretary, to the GO chapter presi­dent, Larry Bridwell, who proudly ac­cepted it in behalf of the membership. The main address was given by President Emeritus of Phi Kappa Tau, Roland Maxwell, on behalf of National President Warren H. Parker. In his address, Mr. Maxwell told of the manner today in which fraternities everywhere can and are overcoming the ferment which exists on can1puses all over the nation. H e sup­ported his statements by telling how fra­ternities, by offering a sense of discipline along with good administrative leader­ship, can cause a better association with people to put down the existing ferment.

Honored guests at the banquet in­cluded Mr. Roland Maxwell, president emeritus; Jack L . Anson, national secre­tary ; Thomas C. Cunningham; director of

chapter development ; Michael J. R aleigh, domain chief, Twenty-first Domain ; Dean Ernest Becker, dean of students at Fullerton ; David Pavlicovic, president of Pi chapter; Bruce Elwood, president of Beta Psi chapter; Thomas Havalina, pres­ident of Inter-Greek Council at Fuller­ton; John Sullivan, Shideler Award Win­ner ; Sam Cooper, founder and first president of Sigma Phi Omega local fra­ternity ; and six past presidents of the local fraternity.

The program for the evening com­menced with the welcome by toastmaster Peter Wesselink, followed by the invoca­tion by Chaplain Jonathan Lehan. Steak dinner was then served to the one-hundred and thirty in attendance. William Dillon, chairman of the Board of Governors, gave the history of the chapter. Welcome to the campus speeches were given by Ernest Becker, dean of students at Fullerton, and Thomas Havalina, president of Inter­Greek Council. The charter was then pre­sented by Jack L. Anson to the GO chapter which, according to Mr. Anson, had the largest percentage of participating alumni of any chapter installed. Larry Bridwell accepted the charter, promising Gamma Omicron would be among the best chapters of Phi Kappa Tau, and announcing GO Chapter's motto would be : "GO PHI TAU". Roland Maxwell Main Address closed the speaking for the evening's exercises, after which a ll the new brothers joined together in m!!JJJO" the Brotherhood Song.

T he purpose of a fraternity on a college ca mpu is manifold, and the development of it members i the focal point of its attention . Through the fraternity the member are given the opportunity to develop themselves socially and schola tic­a lly and to instill in its members a feeling of servi e, responsibility and brotherhood. To the e ends Sigma Phi Omega, a local fra ternity, was fou nded in the Fall of 1960.

From a cha rter membership of fifteen, the Brotherhood grew to well over 9+ members, including a highly organized a lumni o·roup of 4 7 men on campus.

chola rship was alway of primary im­portance to the brothers of Sigma Phi Omega. The development of scholarship is advanced in many ways within the fra ternity. In addition to the standard fil e a nd study materials, on the grounds of the house is a separate library build­ing which is open 24 hours a clay.

i!!TTla Phi Omega realized, however, tha t man is by nature a social being. The " io-s" have always been social leaders on campu . The dances and parties stand

without equal. The Barn Dance is known throughout Southern California. Each yea r the "Sigs" held several annual par­ties, among them, the Toga Party, the Luau and the Chri tma and New Year' Eve Parties to mention only a few. The brothers are also g iven the opportunit to make new acqua intances through ex­changes with sororitie , not only from thi campus but also from Long Beach State, Chapman College, Fullerton Junior Col-

T

lege, and Cerritos Cortege. Thoughout the history of California

State College at Fullerton, service and Sigma Phi Omega were always synon­ymous. In all fields, from student govern­ment to attendance at school sponsored functions, Sigma Phi Omega was the campus leader. "Sigs" did most of the work in construction of the school base­ball diamond, painted the A.S.B. offices and Temporary Union Building, were the chief organizers and workers during the Day of the Titan and Elephant R aces and have always been predominant at formal school functions. Brothers of Sig­ma Phi Omega have held the offices of A.S. president and vice president more often than the members of any other or­ganization on campus. The men of this local fraternity named to Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities, out­numbers the total of all other Greek or­ganizations combined who received that honor. To encourage and stimulate the desire for better men, the Graduate Coun­cil established a scholarship fund which provides the tuition of the continuing brother with the highest grade point average of the preceeding semester.

The first fraternity house on the cam­pus was obtained in September of 1963, when Sigma Phi Omega moved into their present location. Twenty-one men lived in, the first semester, with the operation of the house entirely in the hands of the local chapter. From that time to the pre­sent, the fraternity has never lost its rights on campus for any reason whatsoever. As the first fraternity with recognized hous­ing, Sigma Phi Omega and now, Gamma Omicron of Phi Kappa Tau, has lead and will lead the Greeks in establishing a row with housing for all recognized organiza­tions.

In sports, the new chapter of Phi Tau has had varsity lettermen in cross-country, track, basketball and baseball, last se­mester receiving the All-Greek trophies for valleyball and baseball. This year, two of the five starting basketball players will be Phi Tau's.

In government this year, Phi Tau's hold the posts of: Sophomore Class presi­dent, Junior Class president and repre­sentative, Senior Class vice president and treasurer, and Student Body attorney gen-

ferred to as one of the fastest growing counties in the nation, having multiplied its population almost five times in the last fifteen years. Orange County reached the one million mark in population in 1963, to make it the third most populous county in California. Every indication points to continued growth, with a predicted pop­ulation of two mill ion by 1980.

Amidst this area of prosperity and growth was found the need for a school of higher education. California State College at Fullerton was established, there-by meeting the need. On March 13, 1958, the Public Works Board selected the site of the college to be known first by the name of Orange County State College. In 1960, the name changed to Orange State Col­lege. Again, in 1962, the name was changed to what is presently California State College at Fullerton, establishing continuity of names with the other mem­bers of the California State College System.

The college is located within five miles of 60 percent of the industry and within ten miles of 70 percent of the population of Orange County. It is also within easy driving range of Orange County beaches and mountains.

Dr. \1\' illiam B. Langsdorf was appoint­ed president of the college on January 16,

Page 6

1959 and with two aides came to Fuller­ton ~n March 2, 1959, to begin planning for the opening of the new college. Dur­ing the first seven years, the average an­nual enrollment has grown from 466 to 7,414 individuals. Envisioned are average annual enrollments of 10,000 in 1969-70; 15,000 in 1974-75 ; and 30,000 individuals when the college reaches its master plan enrollment of 20,000 full-time equivalent students in the early nineteen eighties.

California State College at Fullerton is one of eighteen State Colleges. Respon­sibility for the State Colleges is vested in the Board of Trustees which is appointed by the Governor, and the Board's adminis­trative arm, the chancellor. The trustees and the chancellor set the policies for operation of the colleges while delegating considerable independent responsibility for implementation at the college level. The college is authorized to grant bachelor' degrees in 24 major fields and grants master's in eleven fields.

It is accredited by the Western Associa­tion of Schools and Colleges, the Califor­nia State Board of Education, the Ameri­can Association of Collegiate Schools of Business and the Western College Associa­tion.

All registered students belong to the Associated Students of the college.

About Sons, Porents anti Fraternity

By K eith N. Junk, Ohio· State Chapter President, 1966

During my undergraduate years at Ohio State University, I spent many enjoyable hours with the parents of my fraternity brothers and I discovered how important the college experience is to the students' parents. This discovery prompts me to challenge both the fraternity and the parents of fraternity men to cultivate their relationship during the college years .

For almost two decades, the every action and thought of their son has been a focal point in the lives of the parents. Why then do we so often sever this rela­tionship when these young men enter the fraternity? The parents of our fraternity men have a very real desire to know and understand this society of college men that we know as a fraternity and they will welcome any opportunity to gain a better understanding of this force that has en­tered their son's lives.

For eighteen years this young man has shared his life with his parents. He has depended upon them for support in his every activity and has been pleased with their interest in his daily experiences. Yes, as he leaves home for the college campus, he hopes that he will be successful in learning to govern his own life, but the process that leads to this independence is not abrupt-it does not occur immedi­ately as he says goodbye and walks to his dormitory room. And when he calls home to tell his parents that he wants to accept a bid to pledge a fraternity, he hopes to gain their approval and interest.

In this environment, I see the seed of a relationship which can grow into a meaningful bond between the parents and the fraternity. I can see this bond adding support to each man's lifelong fraternal experience and adding support to our entire fraternity system by greater under­standing of its ideals. Thus the fraternity man will not be alone and he can share his many experiences with a family that has a deeper understanding of fraternity

life. And the fraternity system will not b known only by its loud parties and news­paper publicity, but also it will be better understood as a meaningful institution in our society.

Therefore, I challenge each fraternity to throw open its doors and to invite the parents to participate. Make sure that your chapter is known for its gracious hospitality and open invitation to all par­ents. Establish a M others Club and encourage it to be an active part of your fraternity. Sponsor at least one Parents T ea each year and let the Mothers Club help you with at least one Pledge Parents Tea. Make your annual Dads Day and Mothers Day into Dads Weekend and Mothers Weekend, and be sure to appoint your best men to plan the festivities. In­vite as many parents as possible to chap­erone your parties and plan an Oldies Party for the fraternity and the parents. Whenever possible, invite a man's parent to dine with you and treat them as your guests of honor. Finally, spend some time brainstorn1ing about public relations pro­jects for the parents.

I challenge the parents to take the time to enjoy with your son the experiences of fraternity membership. Participate in the activities offered to you by the fra ternity. Don't make reservations at a local res­taurant when you visit the campus, but instead plan to eat at least one e ening meal at the fraternity house. If you have suggestions about the condition of the house or about improvements that might be made, feel free to tell your son or one of the chapter officers about them. Get to know your son's housemother, for she rna be a valuable source of answers to some of your questions about diet, cleanline or study conditions.

Above all, don' t let those four year slip past you without disco erin<Y the many pleasures that can be our ' ith your son's fraternity.

The realization of a 46-year dream and six years of hard work \\·as culminated on Friday evening, November 11 , 1966, at the banquet dedicating the new 56-man chapter house for K appa chapter at the Univer ity of K entucky, in Lexington . The contemporaneously de igned house i the laro·est, and many think the finest at the university. The event, held on th eve of H omecoming, also honored the initia­tion cla ses of 1920 through 1929.

and guests made this the largest and probably the most successful Homecoming program in Kappa's history. The week­end activities were the most comprehen­sive yet offered by the Alumni Associa tion. Guests of honor included Judge and Mrs. James Milliken, K entucky Court of Ap­peals and an alumnus of Kappa; Dr. Robert L . Mills, the president of George­town College and an alumnus of Kappa, and Past National Pres ident W. A. H am­mond.

Eleven of the 70 men initiated between 1920 and 1929 a ttended their first class reunion and Homecoming in m any years.

A surprise event occurred when Paul Jones, a charter member from M adison­ville, K entucky, presented the R esident Council with a copy of the original peti­tion to Phi Kappa Tau prepared by Kappa Zeta Rho, the local fraternity which became K appa chapter. The de­scriptive booklet will be placed in the chapter's new library.

The 82-man chapter was lauded for its academic leadership on campus, achieve-

D ean H all praised K appa as the outstanding fraternity on the U. K . campus. " If all fraternities at U.

A chapter report by Resident Council President Oscar Westerfield indicated good reasons for the special praise. Dur­inrr the 1965-66 school yea r K appa led the eighteen U .

"Truly this group of men i one of w!1ich we can all be justifiably proud and one with which you would want your sons to be associated," stated Jack Anson.

The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, official­ly opening the structure, was held Satur­day morning. James Boggess, president of the house corporation, assisted Mrs. Ruth Gwinner, Kappa's very able house mother, in cutting the Haryard Red and Old Gold ribbons.

After the alumni meeting, ·a buffet luncheon was served. Late that afternoon, after the Homecoming Game,. coffee was served at the chapter house to conclude the official program.

The new chapter house at Kappa was built under the program made available by the University of K entucky whereby the major financing is undertaken by the university, which holds title to the prop­erty. The building was designed by Marye and Bond of Lexington and the project cost was $275,000. The house has a sleep­ing capacity of 56 and can accommodate 75 at meals. Each man living in the house is provided with his own private study facilities separate from his sleeping quar­ters. The building contains approximately 3,000 square feet of social area, double that of any other fraternity house on cam­pus.

The entire house is furnished with con­temporary tastefulness and boasts several pieces of furniture of award winning de-

sign. The sleeping quarters and study uni ts with completely built-in features make for great efficiency of space. The bu ilding, as a whole, is designed to give each member the maximum of privacy while at the same time affording him a well balanced social environment.

There has been great participation by the alumni of the chapter in their drive to raise funds for the fu rnishings of the building and to add specific extras not covered in the original building ontract and financing.

In the university's finan cing plan , the house corporation provided the land on which the building is constructed. This property was purchased and given to the university. T o make this possible, the former house owned and occupied by the fra ternity vvas sold.

Through the sale of the former house, short term financing and the generosity of alumni, as well as a sound, strong R esi­dent Council, the chap ter was able to participate in the construction of one of the finest homes occupied by a chapter of Phi K appa Tau.

Kappa's new chapter house is the result of the faith of the University of Ken­tucky in fra ternities, the loyalty and gene­rosity of many alumni of the chapter and a strong, energetic R esiden t Council that prides itself on high scholarsh ip and achievement.

Scholastic Record of Chapters Shows Decline Compared to Recent Years

Alpha O micron at Lafayette Takes Honors for Highest Scholar hip

and Greatest Scholarship Improvement in Phi K appa T au

By Ben E . David, Educational Director

Phi K appa T au suffered an academic defeat during the 1965-66 school year. Records just compiled from the NIC Scholarship R eporting Service indicate that the school year was the vvorst in nearly a decade for Phi K appa Tau. Of the 64 chapters for which comparable grades have been received, only 31 chap­ters were equal to or above the all-men's average on their respective campuses.

Only 48 per cent of the chapters were on the plus side of the academic ledger, which was a drastic decrease from the previous year. Six of the chapters held first place records among a ll fra ternities a t their schools, while seven chapters held the dubious achievement of being las t among all the fra ternities a t their campus.

Such a record can only place Phi K ap­pa T au in a position of ridicule among the na tional fra ternity leaders, and is an indefensible situa tion in the eyes of the opponents of the Greek system. It adds fuel to the fire for t~e i r questioning the value of a Greek-letter organiza tion.

Any large na tional fra ternity which has fewer than half of its chapters achieving grades equal to the all-men's average on an individual cam pus certa inly has many ques tions to ponder and answers to find . It is indeed a sad day for Phi K appa T au, or any Greek fraternity, to have to ad mit publicly that fewer than fifty per cen t of its chapters can maintain grades equal to the average of the men enrolled on a campus. I s this to indicate tha t these chapters are p ledging men who a re not able to achieve grades, or is it rather tha t the chapter places so many hurdles and other barriers before the men tha t they do not have time to study? Are over half of our chapters sub-standard chap­ters as the over-all grade report tends to indicate?

WI NTER • 1966

These a re only some of the questions tha t are puzzling. T h re must be answers to these questions. What are they? With selectivity of pledges probably higher to­day than in many years, are chapters not taking in the quality of members that Phi K appa T au encourages? While there are many values tha t go with fra ternity mem ­bership, there is really but one solid tangi­ble evidence of worth than can be looked to by the opponents of Greeks. This, un­fortunately, is the grade stand ings.

The overa ll p icture of Phi K appa T au and the scholastic p icture chapter by chapter can be seen in Chart I. This lists the chapter rank on camp us, position with the a ll-fraternity average, the index above or below the a ll-men's average, and the reflected change from the previous year's report. O ther charts show the chapters making the greatest improvement in grades over the preceeding year, tho e chapters showing the heavie t decrea e grade-wise, chapters rank ing first on the campus, chapters ranking last on the cam­puses, and a number of chapters above and below the a ll men's average for the past several years.

Un iversi ty of M ichiaan moved to second p lace, fo llowed by Transylvania, Muhlenberg and Nebra ka Wesleyan in thi rd, fourth and fifth po i­tions. One interesting, yet somewhat odd record came to light in the review of the yea r's compilations.

Phi Kappa Tau has a new editor! And as the person who has struggled to main­tain deadlines since 1955, it is my pleasure to tell you about Jack W . Jareo, now a full-time member of the Central Office staff who rejoins the official family after an absence of more than 36 years .

J ack comes to Phi K appa Tau with impressive credentials. I believe I can say without m uch argument that he is the leading expert on fraternity alumni publi­cations and relations in the country. For 32 years he has managed a commercial fraternity a lumni service in Champaign, Illinois.

Jack is no new-comer to The Laurel of Phi Kappa Tau. H e was copy editor in 1927 under Editor Grayson Kirk, Miami, the president of Columbia niversity. H e followed Kirk as national editor and was in charge of The Laurel from 1928 to 1931 as a part-time position. During tha t period, he was considered by his fellovv­fraternity editors as an expert on covers and wrote the chapter for this topic in the "Handbook for Editors" which was pub­lished in 1930 by the College Fraternity Editors Associa tion.

Our new editor is a 1929 graduate of

The President's Message

To The Men of Phi Kappa Tau:

Dear Brothers;

During the last week of January, when the Chicago area was smothered under 23 inches of snow, I found myself stranded in an area flattened by an act of nature. Several hundred motorists stranded on an expressway linked arms and formed a human chain to get to safety. Passing motorists stopped to help stalled or stuck fellow drivers. When regular police protection broke down, some stores in the more unstable sections of the city were looted. This snow crisis pointed out to me two truths.

1. Each person is an individual capable of initiative, response and compassion.

2. All of us are dependent on our fellow men.

These truths are inherent in our fraternity system. The final values are focused in the soul and life of the individual. It is the sober responsibility of our fraternity to encourage its members to become leaders in a distraught world and become compassionate, just and magnanimous.

The word fraternity is not ours alone. It has its counterpart in the political vocabulary: brotherhood, goodwill and cooperation. Basically, the ideals of fra­ternities are the ideals of the college to which they are attached and the ideals of the nation which we love. The concept of nationhood is impossible without these powerful attributes of Brotherhood. Phi Kappa Tau is proud of this heritage!
