I think he is the best example of the "coolest cat" to be an Alpha.

I didn't know that!

My favorite Alums from Sigma Nu are:

Bob Barker
Charles Schwabb (multi-billionaire investor/philanthropist)
Harrison Ford
Ron Evans (Apollo 17 Astronaut, the last man on the moon)

...though, I've gotta say that Sigma Phi Epsilon claims one of my all time favorite authors as one of their own: Dr. Seuss.

Other than Myself who has busted his rear for 42 years, HST- as in Truman. While an honorary Member He loved LXA!

Each GLO has outstanding Members and I guess that shows something about what can and will be done by GLO Members!

I wish they wouldn't put these celebrity names up on their home pages without checking with the official Gamma Phi Beta page first. I think I even found one listing Kirstie Alley!

My favorite alums are Dr. Laurel Clark and Dr. Janet Graham

Just FYI, she isn't an alum yet. She's going to be a junior in the fall. Actually, that chapter has two other gymnasts who have impressive resumes, Audrey Bowers and Nikki Childs, as well.

Wow brainfart there, I was just thinking of famous members. She's still awesome. I never got to do gymnastics because it was too expensive (so much wasted talent *cries*) so I satisfied myself with an obsession later in life. Ironically horseback riding lessons were cheaper than gymnastics classes.
Are the other two national team members or just elites?

Pi Phi has a lot of famous alums but one of my favorites was always (R.I.P.) Nancy Culp--Miss Jane Hathaway!

Sigma Nu has a Famous Alum named Robin Williams.... The Musician not the Comedian. There are some chatpers out there that are confused about this and have even made the mistake of listing the comedian on their website.

Robin Williams the comedian never even went to a University/College with a Sigma Nu Chapter:

University: Political Science, Claremont Men's College (dropped out)
University: Drama, Marin College
University: Drama, Juilliard School

I stand corrected!

Good thing he didn't mention the sorority name in the book. Interesting read, though.
