Erik Conard TKE Like no other
 
To the Brothers of TKE,

I once again had the pleasure of seeing Erik after 37 years.

We had a sort of G C meeting while he was visiting in Topeka, Ks.

For you that never had this pleasure, HE is a Font of information about not only TKE and LXA, but most of the Greek Organizations.

It was a 3 1/2 hour discussion of Greeks and our rememberances between us.

He is still very updated with the Events of TKE so use The Crusty Old Fart for any and all information! :) This of course is coming from another crusty old fart!:D

ZEKE, He talked very Highly of you. I related about me talking with you and told him You were Great guy and are a Great TKE Brother!!!

For those of you who have not met EC, you know not what you are missing!!!!!


Interfraternally Yours,

Did indeed have a marvelous visit with Tom Earp; he is a credit
to Lambda Chi, and like many of us, our outfits send but rarely
receive. Some timely thoughts after forty-plus years as a Greek:
---now is time to grow. Young folks hungry for mentors, for a sense of belonging. Double your size, double your chapters on campus and you will automatically double your clout.
We are upping our size, now up yours.
---sororities, dump those damned quotas and let others on. And although many will not join the bottom ones, quotas will not
help, but the new blood will.
---IFCs, be what you were supposed to be: helping each other,
not making stupid rules.
---Greek Advisors...insist that each chapter have an active advisor and a functioning board which meets each month. You
will cut your brain damage in half and produce top chapters. And
all will love you...rightly so...and it'll be a fun trip.
---if you drink, be a drinking scholar. Quit pissing on the Pike porch or barfing on the SAE lion. Get busy, get positive, get real.
---try to help reactivate a nearby chapter who stubbed its toe some years ago. We will all be wealthier for it.
---FINALLY, do not deny a good person a chance to be a Greek.
Have over half your pledge class made before school opens. And, remember, Fraternity is for Life! Enjoy....'uncle Erik'
