Bill Farkas is the 'Cat Herder in Chief'. When he walked in the financial house was a wreck, numbers were down, and the undergraduates sometimes questioned the value of Indianapolis. He will have his hands full for a year or two.

Yet he isn't blowing smoke about it. The information is accurate and he isn't sugar coating it. Despite all this there is hope and passion - and the ability to make it happen.

Sounds like my kind of Brother.

Brothers,

The Electronic C&C now has an Audio version! The first three audio issues can be downloaded at the magazine site. So, those Brothers who can't or don't want to read from a computer screen now have the option of printing a copy (with some different content) or downloading the audio version.

I listened to this month's C&C magazine (Isn't that a strange idea? Listening to a magazine...) this morning and enjoyed it. It was a professional product with good sound and a good reader.

Give it a try. Oh, high speed connection is a must to download. A dial-up will take about 4 hours! I listened to my copy with the built-in Windows Media Player.

Hopefully they will being podcasting it. I'd really enjoy that. Maybe they could even get some "celebrity brother" guest readers, LOL! It'd be like the old time radio shows...

Brothers,

The fourth issue of the Electronic Cross and Crescent is online. This makes four issues in a row that have been produced on time. I think that this issue is quite good. A nice selection of topics, lots of interactivity, and a professional layout. Be sure to check out the "Special Valentine" sidebar, don't overlook the Blog, and try the Podcast feature. Give Jason and Chris a big "pat on the back" for another great issue of the C&C. Be sure to leave feedback. Jono, I liked your comments on the "Smoot" article!

Stay tuned,

Mike Raymond,

Brother Mike, especially enjoyed your Emily Butterfield article and relayed it to the AGD Thread.

Amazing How intertwined We as GLOs really are.

Brothers,

I really appreciate your kind words. I enjoyed doing the research about her for the article. I also thought the information about BPA and Balfour maintaining departments to create everything for a fraternity or sorority was interesting too. I would like to get my hands on the archives of those two companies. Can you imagine what treasures they hold?

Brothers,

The March Cross & Crescent is on-line. This makes the fifth issue of the magazine published on-line and on time! That is 80 pages of information so far.

I recommend reading the "Recruitment" article. It addresses some of the issues raised here about our declining membership.

Don't forget the "podcast" and the printable pdf versions of the C&C.

Echo, Brother Jono. He beat Me to posting on Your article!

Another Article so well done and need to go back and reread it now that I am home for the evening!

Thank You for all of the investigating to get all of this information.

Well Done!!!!!!

Brothers,

The sixth issue of the Electronic Cross & Crescent Magazine was posted early this morning. This makes six issues in a row issued on time as promised! A total of 96 pages of information about different aspects of our Fraternity have been published so far.

Of particular note this time is a fine sidebar in the History Department by the one, only, and not to be duplicated Jono Hren. I hope that this is the first of many by Brother Jono!

I have noticed that some of our Zetas are linking their webpages to the magazine. I think that is a great idea!

Please do what you can to pass the word that this new version of the C&C is on line.

Finally, remember that you can print out a version of the magazine. It is different in some respects from the electronic issue of the C&C.

In any case, enjoy....

Yours in ZAX,

I just finished reading the April C & C and again found another interesting Article into The History of LXA!

Thanks again Mike Raymond!

I am sure I can see Brother Jonos hand print in the Article also!

Mike Raymond wrote the excellent article on the Expositor.

I only did the sidebar (at his request).

ZAX,
Jono

Brothers,

The May issue of the electronic version of the Cross & Crescent magazine was posted early this morning. This is the seventh issue of the C&C that has appeared on time as promised. This represents 114 pages of new material since the magazine first appeared in November, 2005.

Of course, there is much more to this issue than meets the eye! How about a slide show? A Blog? Podcast? The magazine is very
"interactive," with many words and illustrations linked to more "stuff!" A very rich experience if you take the time to look at it!

I hope you enjoy it and find it worthy of our Fraternity.

Yours in ZAX,
