Yes, I agree--hit up the alumni first!
I'm just kidding, but seriously, they can be your best friends. When our DZ chapter reorganized a couple years ago, a bunch of alums put a lot of time and effort in to help and they're still doing it--I'm eating some cookies that they brought us to snack on during finals week as we speak. But back to KA--I was reading about you all, and I cannot believe how nice and *gentlemanly* you all and your traditions are...where were you all hiding all those times I needed a nice date to formal?!? I think it's sad that the KA chapter here at UK lost their house last year (I think that's when it was). I don't hear too much about them anymore, and I'm sure that their house being condemned didn't help much...
