I do too. Storage isn't a super problem. It's not like they're the size of September Vogue or something.

For shame!

I think I've kept most of mine since being initiated, though I couldn't tell you exactly where they all are.

I'm pretty sure I have all of mine since I was initiated, it's just (as others have said) WHERE they are.

Currently, I have them on my bookshelf in my room, but maybe i'll pick up some type of 'magazine box" to keep them together in

I was holding on to them for many years but then I found them archived online as pdf's. Since then if there is something important I want to keep I'll hold on to them, other than that they get tossed in with my recycling.

Unfortunitly I too threw away old magazines and now wish I had not ever done it as many of My Brothers keep them and can go back to check History.

Because of finances, LXA has gone to an electronic magazine while it is saviing money that needs to go back to run a Greek Organization, it comes out once a month, gives the same information and can be down loaded to be saved.

Many of us were not happy, but, it has proven so succesful that I cannot wait for the monthly report instead of the quarterly magazine.

I never throw the Oracle away. They will be of historical and sentimental value to me. Now, we will be given the choice of receiving the hardcopy or the electronic version. It will be interesting to see what percentage of brothers take each option, esp. since the Fraternity is going to publish two magazines, one for Fraternity and chapter news,etc. and the other for more academic and op ed type materials.
