"It was taken in front of one of the girl's sorority houses on the day of the UT-Auburn football game in 1936. The car was a 1928 touring model and was owned by Kappa Alpha students Tom Cannon; John Kemmer (deceased); Bob Miles, later a distinguished surgeon in Memphis; and C.B. Arnette, later an antiques dealer and auctioneer and writer who has published four books. The KA partners hauled students to campus for a nickel each way and rented the car for $2.50 per night. It was the conveyance that hauled KA member Admiral Richard Byrd in the parade when he visited the university in 1937."

Aw, from the looks of the guy in the photo, one of the KDs had a boyfriend at the Naval Academy. Their pictures never change (except for *slightly* different haircuts).

A shocking accomplishement (with a nod to ebdelt). At the time of this accomplishment, fraternities had been on the TCU campus for 12 years. TWELVE! Eight chapters, twelve years, 2 semesters each year. None had ever had all members get higher than a 2.0? Yikes.

I am laughing at this a LOT. My son was a Delt at TCU in the 90's!
