While I didn't personally rush a colony, my chapter is still young enough that I've been able to meet some of our founders. During my term as chapter president, I also had the opportunity to meet one of the two men (also a past-president) who helped set up the installation weekend. The feeling I get from him is one of unquenchable pride in the chapter he set up. I've also met one of the first couple of guys who came up with the idea to found the chapter to begin with. Same thing from him. The chapter's current advisor is one of the charter members too and even he has that sort of sense of ... "I helped make this happen" ... when you meet him. The point is, that could be you!
