An AI Story for the boys...
 

Wow! This is fantastic!!

I think Joe will be our first proper male PNAM ever! AggieDoc, who was on GC a few years ago, was also interested in AI; but, I don't think he ever got around to it. I'd have to go back and check.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing how Joe fares!

.....Kelly :)

Neat, for Joe!!

Yes Fraternitys do AI but not that seldom. Well, refraze that, NPIC Greek Fraternitys do it a lot more often as many schools that they are on have small Chapters.

Wish him good luck from all of us and would be interested if it happens who He AIed with!:)

I think the Sororitys are much fartehr ahead of Fraternitys on this thing of AI!:cool:

Best of luck to Joe! I'm looking forward to hearing about his adventures and finding the right chapter for him!

This is different
 

Hope Joe finds a home!

Fraternity AI
 

For Joe:

Welcome to the PNAM class of 2004-2005!

:D

I hope Joe has a great time tomorrow and will hopefully become a member of the Bucs!! It seems like he really enjoys them!

"Hi, my name is Joe
And I work in a button factory
I have a wife and a fam-i-ly.
One day my boss ... he said Joe "Are you busy?"
I said NO.
Can you press this button with your right hand."


Well.... my name isn't "Joe" - it's Mike.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. It's been quite an interesting ride and it's only been a few weeks. It's a great chapter and I know that my time will be well spent. The guys are great and I've been welcomed from the start. As things progress I'll be sure to keep everyone updated.

Thanks again everyone!

Mike

Welcome Mike! (I remember singing the "Hello, my name is Joe" song in camp many thousands of years ago. :D ) Glad things are going well and can't wait to hear about your progress. :)

Welcome to GC, Mike! :)

Welcome Mike!

Hi Mike!

Thanks for logging in and joining us! We're really interested in your story as we've never had a man seriously attempt AI before. Best of success to you! I'm sure you'll become a great asset to the Bucs!

.....Kelly :)

Forward progress. I've been involved with as many things as possible (given that lots of stuff is closed door to me) as a chapter advisor. I'm waiting on training materials from their HQ so I can get a look at how they manage things. So, basically I'm attempting to immerse myself as much as possible.
Mike

how do you measure progress?
 

Over the past few weeks I have been working with the chapter with direct contact with HQ and have received quite a bit of direction and enthusiasm. I've never been one for lots of volunteer work but this doesn't seem much like work. I found it exciting to be working with a national group that holds the same ideals as myself. Thanks to everyone that has provided guidance up to this point. Good luck to those pursuing AI; it can be a blast, but expect a long road.

Mike

Hey Mike,

I'm sorry that it seems to not be working out with the "Bucs". The fact that you've given so much thought and consideration to an organization's ideals tells me that you are a man of character.

If you're still feeling a connection with the Bucs, perhaps there is another chapter you can work with which may be different than the previous one?

No matter what, the best of success to you!

.....Kelly :)

It's been a few weeks and a much needed update appears overdue. I've been working extensively with the chapter and things have been giong exceptionally well. Just a few weeks after calling the chapter advisor I was invited to join the board of alumni advisors. My presence has been well accepted and I'm quite excited to be able to donate my time to the chapter.

Late last week, the chapter approached me about alumni initiation and indicated that it should not be a problem and they are hoping to press the court and alumni initiate me in December. So, all-in-all I must say that things seem to have worked out for the best.

As I get more info I'll be sure to do a better job of keeping everyone informed. Take care everyone.


Edited because I can't spell

Mike,

Glad to hear that things are going so well with your search! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Best of luck!

Thanks gang for all the congrats. If I had thought about it, I would have dropped some hints so everyone could take a guess. Oh well. Thanks again!

Not quite although, both the Pikes and the "Panthers" were at my undergraduate college. Nice, solid guess.

Oh geez, we may need Navane to help us with this. Paging Kelly.

Yea Mike!!! http://www.baylorfans.com/ubb/bounce.gif

Does anyone know if Delta Tau Delta has AI?

I will guess Sigma Nu.

Does TKE do AI?

I'm going to guess.....

Lambda Chi Alpha or Tau Kappa Epsilon
