I never throw the Oracle away. They will be of historical and sentimental value to me. Now, we will be given the choice of receiving the hardcopy or the electronic version. It will be interesting to see what percentage of brothers take each option, esp. since the Fraternity is going to publish two magazines, one for Fraternity and chapter news,etc. and the other for more academic and op ed type materials.

I have 9 years of journals either in my book collection or packed away in a box.

I toss mine pretty regularly. I think I'd only keep it if I was in the issue.

Okay is that an ego problem?
:o

So how many have you kept?

I keep them all. I also buy old issues on ebay. Wound up with Vol. 1 Issue 1 as a result. :)

Where to store them will prove to be a problem...

I had held on to most of them, particularly the ones where I was in them, but I've lost some and just ended up throwing away the rest my last move. I just had too much stuff, something had to go.

I've kept them off and on. They are scattered about my house, lol. Maybe with the move, I can concentrate on 1 place.

It's cool now because I actually know some of the people in the pictures and/or articles.

As I mentioned before, my chapter has 4 very old bounded copies of the Quarterly that are soo neat to look at and see what is relevant now.

I normally don't keep mine.

I usually read The Adelphean or Deltasig (Delta Sigma Pi) and toss them after a month or so.

I do have one copy of The Deltasig that I have kept for several years - but only because I came out on the cover :cool:

Our chapter has every Adelphean bound like that - I really wish I could get mine like that. When I was in school, we used to look through them and laugh about how every wedding, every birth was recorded - talk about preparing a legacy!!

I have held on to all of mine :) don't plan on ever tossing them

I only kept the ones that I was in, and have tossed the other ones after a month or two. Ours are available online if I ever wanted to read them again.

I wish we could get them all on a disc - like National Geographic did a few years back. Hey, I smell a project for someone . . .

I used to keep all of them, but recently I decided to clean house and get rid of anything that I will not look at again. So 12 years of ToDragma's went to the recycling bin. I did keep one from my senior year in college where I am in a group picture, but other than that.
As for the one I just recieved, I will probably keep it until the next one arrives.
