Sorry, this is the hard way, but I can't seem to make a direct link work -- perhaps because the site is being updated.
Go to
www.oudelt.com, click on photo album, then click on 1999 button. There is a fair picture of the Athens Shelter. It was opened in 1970. There is a painting of the "old" OU Delt house in the museum area of the Delt Central Office. The "old" one is where I pledged.
((Edit -- now that link is down. If it's worth it, go to the OU link below, choose "current students," then "Student Organizations," then "Greek Life," then "fraternity and sorority chapter list," then "Delta Tau Delta." I don't blame you if this is too much to bother with.))
I also wish I could show you a picture of Galbreath Chapel which is across the street from the Delt House on the OU College Green (National list of Historic Places). It was donated by the late Brother John Galbreath, a Beta Chapter alumni who later owned a Kentucky Derby Winner, part of the Pittsburgh Pirates (with brother Dan) and lots of other real estate around the country.
If you ever visit the OU webpage (
www.ohio.edu), you can take a tour of campus buildings and see the chapel and the alumni center (see below).
Also, the Konneker Alumni Center was donataed by Brother Wilfred Konneker, another Beta Delt.
Yikes! Sorry this is such a mess.
