super effort....
 

for the critics of Tom Earp...you oughta have seen the great greek article in the Pittsburg (KS) Headlight/Sun where they
featured Lambda Chi Alpha and the dedication of one alum,
our Tom Earp. He got them a house built and has taken them
from one member to twenty one! He upped his, now up yours!

can you post us the article? i googled for it and received nothing.

and 3 cheers for tom earp, eh?

I can't find it either. :(

Erik, could you please give us a link? I'm not coming up with anything, either.

Thank You Erik for the kind words!:)

But, I am just one cog on the total wheel of rejuvination of The Pittsburg Chapter. Granted, I did get get the wheel rolling, but it took a lot of work by many Alums to get accomplished what is transpiring now.

Heck, I just couldnt let the Chapter die!:D

Edited to add:



Lambda Chi Alpha inducts new members
By KEVIN FLAHERTY
Morning Sun Staff Writer
Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity just multiplied its membership by seven. The fraternity installed 21 new students last week, the latest effort to build up its membership.

The fraternity previously only had one active member, Chris Beyer, and a couple of associate members. Beyer is set to graduate in May.

The 21 members, who were inducted at Pittsburg State University's Timmons Chapel, include: Steve Anderson, Chris Anderson, Cody Freeze, Billy Grassie, Brandon Iloilo, Mark Jansen, Caleb Linn, Wesley Nimmo, Taylor Rainy, Brett Ritchey, Jarrod Rogol, Zach Russel, AJ Stuterman, Ryan Sullivan, Kevin Freeman, Dillan Fullerton, Kyle Hughes, Kyle Kunkle, Robert Wan Wey, Garrett Beckman and Richard Hoyt.

"It's just great, we're really excited," said Josh Lodolo, Lambda Chi expansion leader. "We had a number of other candidates that we didn't get to, so we've been talking about sending a couple of staff members back to talk to them next week."

Lodolo was in charge of reinvigorating the fraternity. The newly rebuilt Lambda Chi chapter had been close to dying out fairly recently following the loss of its house, which dropped active membership from 30 members to one.

The new members will have the advantage of a new house, one much nicer than the structure that Lodolo had likened to the Delta house in "Animal House." In the next few weeks, the fraternity expects to complete a more than $1 million chapter house that will include capacity for 16 members, with the possibility to expand to 20 in the future.

Members will be able to move in starting fall 2006.

There are a few errors only 3/4 Mil. Their Math is wrong too, from 1 Active to 21 New Associates.


Oh Well, it is still working and growing!

I couldn't find it either (is it only in the print version?), but found link to article on the chapter and another one on their rebuilding which are also good reads :)

Good job!

These things are seldom accomplished to one person, but even Tom's dectractors know how committed he is to his chapter and his fraternity.

I hope everyone can take a moment to say congratulations to a Brother Greek.

Way to go, Tom.

Congratulations!
