Jon Stewart / DeltAlum
DeltAlum: you are correct about former Governor Rubin Askew. One of the most respected political figures in Florida history was student body president at FSU and a member of Delta Tau Delta. The current IFC president is also a Delt.
Responding to an earler mention of Jon Stewart: he was a Pike at William & mary, initiated 1981. Other Pike alumni include newsman Ted Koppel (Syracuse '59) and singer Tim McGraw (Northeast Louisiana '86), plus a number of actors and politicians.
One story: Bobby Bowden was Pike president at Samford University when he was an undergraduate. He was present at his son Jeff's initiation at Florida State in 1981. Now, Jeff is Coach Bowden's offensive coordinator, and Coach's grandson, Robert Hines, is the quarterback at Tennessee-martin where he is also a Pike.
