i never dreamed of being in a fraternity.

In 1978, one of Sig Ep’s regional directors visited West Chester State College where the intramural basketball league was held.
As i understand the story, Gary Bonas was looking for a group of young men who already worked well together for a common goal.
If Gary could get 6 to 10 guys from an intramural team, he’d have the basic recipe for a startup.
That basketball team was the alpha pledge class. i was a fellow physical education major at South campus and was invited to a social and then consequently invited to be in the beta pledge class.
In a year, we grew to three dozen young men and did all the things required to go from a fraternity colony to a fraternity chapter.
That’s us in the photo above. Cheryl randomly found it on the College website.
Note: This blog post title, Why do college students move?, was inspired after i looked at all the guys in the photo and recalled how all of us lead an active lifestyle.
Ps. That’s me front row, far left.
