Mid-Year

E veryone has heard the phrase ''March

Madness. II This refers to the month in

early spring when it seems there is a

college basketball game going on at all

holliS of the day and night. One game follows the

other. The best teams continue beating other teams

and advancing until they reach their

goal -- the championship. It seems the

more opportunities to play give each

team a chance to excel and win.

Not unlike //March Madness// is

something that Pi Kapps have dubbed 11Mid-Year Madness. ~~ This refers to our

schedule of four Mid-Year Leadership

Conferences that occur on four

different weekends in four regional

locations across the nation, allowing

more of our student leaders to reap the benefits of

the national organization. This year, conferences are

being held in Charlotte, N.C., St. Louis, Mo.,

Philadelphia, Pa. and San Jose, Calif

We don't stop there, either. Through

Pi Kapp College, we offer a four-day leadership

school which takes place in August. Pi Kappa Phi is

the only national fraternity to provide such exten­sive leadership programming twice a year. Other

fraternity executives marvel at our ability to do this.

Why such an extensive focus? It's simple.

Pi Kappa Phi believes that in order to better prepare

our student members to face the complex issues

surrounding students and collegiate life, we need to

provide more opportunities for all our members to

receive the leadership training they need to become

better students, brothers, leaders and men. When

utilized properly, we have seen how the tools that

Pi Kappa Phi provides are instrumental to our

members' personal development and success.

I hope you enjoyed the last issue of the

Star & Lamp, which examined our Pi Kapp football

history. In a follow up in this issue, we go back in

time to the most lopsided game in football history

and the man that ties Pi Kappa Phi to that

historical match.

In our main feature, we look at the sport

that brings us //March Madness// and the Pi Kapps

that shined on the hardwood court. From college

to the NBA, Pi Kapps have always been a part of this

exciting sport.

Finally, on behalf of the Star & Lamp staff

and all the staff at the National Headquarters, we

wish you all the best for the New Year.

Fraternally,

I n continuing our review

of stellar Pi Kapp

athletes, we focus this

time on the fraternity's

leading basketball stars over

the years. To honor those

brothers who achieved

success on the court, the Star

& Lamp presents a historical

look at the fraternity's top

roundballers.

Among the earliest

standouts are three mem­

bers of the first South

Carolina (Sigma) team in

1909: Wade Bolt, Charles

Dillingham and J.D.

Hamer. At North Carolina

(Kappa), George Tennant

captained the Tar Heels in

1917 and 1918 while T. W.

Hawkins was Davidson's

(Epsilon) 1918 captain.

The 1920s saw

more Pi Kapps on the court.

F. D. uDewey" Cline of

North Carolina State (Tau)

starred from 1916 through

1920. Cline was the captain

of the team in 1919 and

1920. The Asheville, N.C.

native played guard and was

essential to the success of

the 1920 NC State team,

particularly in leading the

Wolfpack to a 32-21 upset

victory over North Carolina.

The NC State team lost the

State Basketball Champion­

ship to Trinity (now Duke

University) with Cline again

starring.

In an interesting

side note, Cline was Tau

I n the 16 months since the project was intro­duced, 41 chapters have voted to become Journey Chapters-- 15 of which have taken the steps to become fully implemented

Journey Chapters. One chapter that has exemplified the success that the Journey can create is Purdue University's Omega Chapter.

•

the men of Omega decided to become a Journey Chapter, voting unanimously to embark on a new path of membership in Pi Kappa Phi,

and seeking to solidify the Fraternity's position at the top of one of the most competitive Greek campuses in the country.

On September 7, three members of the National Headquarters staff, along with Area Governor JeffLuebker (Bradley-Epsilon Mu), facilitated the chapter's Journey Implementation Retreat. The brotherhood established a long-term mission statement and set goals by which to

10 THE STAR & LAMP

integrate The Journey into Omega chapter. "More than anything else, The Journey

allows us to tell others what we have in common. It allows us to articulate our vision ... and be set apart from the other 45 fraternities on our cam­pus," says Pat Kuhnle, Omega's Chapter Advisor.

Since implementing the program, Omega has used The Journey to better educate its associate members. Using The Journey as an important part of the chapter's fall recruitment, they were able to pre­initiate 24 men and retain 23 . Archon Jim Taller credits the structure of the program and the chapter's Academic Coach with the associate's success.

For the first time, the associate class established its own standards board and code of conduct, using them to stress accountability to each other, and the chapter. This has enabled each

new associate to base his membership on the values held in the BEACONS ofThe Journey.

"The Journey has given Omega the ability to attract a higher standard of men. We realize that higher standards are the key to

the survival of our chapter," said Taller. In November of this year, almost 25

percent of the chapter attended a Sophomore Leadership Institute on the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, facilitated by the Covey Leader­ship Center, in Indianapolis, IN.

Becoming a Journey chapter has not changed the daily life of the chapter, instead, it has changed the way the members are educated

and prepared for life after college. By implement­ing The Journey at Purdue, the chapter is taking a second look at the values and standards involved with being a fraternity man.

Omega is a chapter that has committed itself to building better men, knowing that they will compete in a new world of fraternity, and survive into a new century. Is your chapter ready to make that same commitment to greatness? *

The Award-Winning Journey Project

In the 16 months since its introduction at Pi Kapp College in 1995, The Journey has attracted attention from around the country, and has been lauded by many as a bold

initiative in the fraternal world. The Journey Project has been heralded as the future of Pi Kappa Phi by the National Fraternity; as the renaissance of the fraternal movement by alumni; and as the answer to the crisis of fraternity ailments by the Greek community -- all in its first year of existence. Recently, the leaders of the Greek world and the professional Association of Fraternity Advisors agreed.

At the Association of Fraternity Advisors (AFA) and National Interfraternity Confer­ence (NIC) annual meeting, December 5-8 in Orlando, Fl., Pi Kappa Phi's Journey received

the highest award given for educational endeavors, the Educational Excellence Award. It is being recognized as a program based on the comprehensive

development of better men. *

FALL CHARTERINGS

Pi Kappa Phi returns to Arizona, arrives at Kentucky

On November 9, 1996, Pi Kappa Phi returned to an old, familiar place with

the rechartering of Beta Theta Chapter at the University of Arizona. Originally

chartered in 1951, Pi Kappa Phi had been absent from the Tucson, AZ campus since

1963. In September of 1995, the chapter was reborn and over the course of slightly

more than a year, emerged for rechartering with 60 members.

The chartering officer was National Secretary Ernest Johnson assisted by

Chuck Barnard, vice president of Pi Kappa Phi Properties. Tom Sullivan, director of

chapter services, and Leadership Consultant Tom Atwood represented the National

Headquarters. Members from Cal State

Fullerton (Zeta Rho) served as the initiat­

ingteam.

According to Archon Eric Clingan,

the members of Beta Theta Chapter have

"felt a dramatic change in their lives due

solely to the standards to which we have

been exposed over the course of our

affiliation."

They have also changed how others view fraternities. The chapter CPA of

3.14 is well above the all fraternity average (2.4) and all men's average (2.7). The

chapter also had several members attend a PUSH Camp in Kentucky and had a

chapter member ride the Journey of Hope this past summer. Additionally, the

chapter raised $1,500 for PUSH America.

Earlier this fall, on October 26, 1996, the Eta Tau Chapter was chartered at

the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky. Harry Caldwell, National

Treasurer, and John Andrews, National Chaplain, served as chartering officer and

assistant chartering officer, respectively. The National Headquarters was again

represented by Tom Sullivan, director of chapter services and Tom Atwood, leader­

ship consultant. Chapter members from Morehead State (Delta Eta) and South

Alabama (Gamma Phi) served as the initiating teams.

The 64 member chapter started as a group of nineteen men in February of

1995. Since then they have quickly become an integral part of the UK Greek system

and plan on attaining higher goals now that they have achieved chartered status.

"As a chartered chapter, we will continue to become a stronger member of the growing family of Pi Kappa Phi," said Shawn Kent, Chartering Chairman. "We

hope this chapter will take a position as a leader on this campus and as a leader

among all chapters of Pi Kappa Phi." *

PUSH America

PROJECTS PROFILE PUSH Americo,s message of awareness is spread throughout the year by chapter members, alumni, staff and volunteers. From the pounding of nails at Give-A-PUSH Weekends and PUSH Camps to cheers from the crowds at No Boundaries

events and Journey of Hope arrivals, the message is heard loud and clear as members and friends of Pi Kappa Phi come together to improve the lives of those with disabilities.

Give-A-PUSH Weekends

The three Give-A-PUSH Weekends held in the

fall of 1996 combined $21,500 in grants with the

energy and commitment of 169 Pi Kappa Phi volun­

teers to enhance the quality of life for people with

disabilities.

In Greenwood, S.C., 60 students representing

nine chapters built an accessible playground at

Merrywood Elementary School. The school provides

services for children in the community with physical disabilities. Before this project, there was not an

accessible playground for disabled youth anywhere in Greenwood County.

In Des Moines, Iowa, 41 students representing

six chapters rebuilt and renovated a cabin and repaired

the arts and crafts building at Easter Seals' Camp Sunnyside. The camp provides week-long, residential

camping for more

than 1,000 children

and adults with

disabilities, as well as

operating a day camp,

travel program, and respite services on selected

weekends throughout the year.

In Efland, N.C., 68 men from 12 chapters

enhanced accessibility at Camp Chestnut Ridge. The

camp offers summer programs for adults and children

with disabilities. Students created paths from the

cabins to the lodge, rebuilt ramps on cabins, and built

a retaining stair wall.

Held each spring and fall, Give-A-PUSH

Weekends combine contributions of funds and

manpower to make community resources more

accessible for people with disabilities.

PUSH Camps Held during March of each year, PUSH Camps

provide an alternative to traditional spring break

activities. Men of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity attend the

one-week camps during their respective spring breaks

No Boundaries In 1995-96, PUSH America launched

the No Boundaries program to encourage

Pi Kappa Phi chapters to create week-long

events that include PUSH America

programming and involve other chapters from across

the country. Last year, 43 chapters raised $20,565.

In 1997, April is No Boundaries month.

Participating chapters will select one week for their

fund-raising, awareness and volunteerism events. Our

1997 goal is 60 chapters.

Alumni turn the wheels The excitement and camaraderie of the Journey

of Hope isn't just for undergraduates. PUSH America

plays a key role in the overall fraternity development -

demonstrating the importance of charitable giving and

acknowledging the value of assisting those in need. For

alumni, involvement with PUSH America can rekindle

those feelings.

The Dallas/Fort Worth Alumni Association has

been involved with the Journey of Hope project since

1991. In 1991, '92 and '93, the team members were the

special guests of the Texas Rangers and were featured in

pregame ceremonies. All three years, the Alumni Associa­

tion hosted tailgate barbecues before the team was

introduced. In 1992, they enhanced the event by inviting

children from the Fort Worth Spina Bifida Foundation to

participate in the barbecue and Rangers game.

In 1995, the group hosted a buffet

dinner for the cyclists as they carne through

town. The dinner was attended by numer­

ous alumni, their wives, and parents of the

local chapter members.

"Our best events as far as quality

and attendance seem to always be centered

around PUSH America," said Nick Murzin,

Delta Psi association president. "PUSH

America is an institution that young and not-so-young

alumni can rally around together and feel proud of the

job that's done."

Local alumni associations are invited to hold an event in conjunction with the Journey of Hope! For more information, contact Chris Orr (704) 522-7874, ext. 125.

coordinate the center's volunteer

network.

Thoughts on the Fraternity

Hightower assumes the position of

National President from Jeny Brewer,

South Carolina (Sigma), at the 45th

Supreme Chapter held in San Francisco, Calif, in August.

Pi Kappa Phi is now being captained by R. Nathan

Hightower, following his election to the office of

National President at the 45th Supreme Chapter. His

dedication to Pi Kappa Phi began in 1975 at the

University of Alabama where he became the 1107th

initiate of Omicron chapter. Following is a personal

Question & Answer interview regarding his thoughts

on Pi Kappa Phi -- past, present and future.

Why did you pledge Pi Kappa Phi?

I went through rush with two

other classmates, and one of our

main objectives was to live in the

fraternity house. During formal

rush, we had the pleasure of

meeting baseball hall-of-farner Joe Sewell. Sitting in the Omicron

chapter house and listening to

stories of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig made the

decision to go Pi Kappa Phi pretty easy.

Why did you initially run for the National Council?

My original interest in the National Council came first with the Fraternity's need for an attorney to

serve as National Chancellor. I am an attorney by

profession, and I answered Pi Kappa Phi's call for legal guidance at the Charlotte Supreme Chapter in

1985. I had already gotten so much from my

better in how all fraternities operate. We are con­

scious now more than ever of the need to control the

distribution and consumption of alcohol.

Another change has been the great enhance­

ment of PUSH America and its projects. By moving

away from play units, members of Pi Kappa Phi are

reaching a broader audience of people educating them about disabilities while experiencing more

leadership through service.

What role do you feel alumni should play in the

Fraternity?

Successful chapters have similar ingredients, and one

of those ingredients is an active alumni base. Alumni

involvement on the chapter level is absolutely

critical to providing continuity at each chapter. The

alumni must always be there to serve as the founda­

tion. The advisory group is there during good and

bad times to keep the chapter on an even keel. The

future success of our Fraternity is dependent on each individual alumnus' willingness to assist when

called upon. It is important to remember that there are non-monetary ways of helping your chapter such

as mentoring and career networking. More alumni

are needed to serve on national committees as well. Alumni gifts are essential, however, as a source of

revenue to maintain the current level of activity. It is

a national initiative to help create an understanding

fraternity experience, and this was my opportunity to of "lifetime membership."

reach a level of national leadership. Having served as

Area Governor, this was the next logical step. I went

on to serve as chancellor for two terms. All totalled, I have served on our National Council for over 11

years in the positions of chancellor, secretary,

treasurer, vice president and now national president.

During your time on the National Council, what

have you seen as the major changes in Pi Kappa Phi?

One major societal change that has directly affected our Fraternity is the raising of the legal drinking age from 18 to 21. It has been a major change for the

18 THE STAR & LAMP

In an age when Greek systems seem to be

weakening, what is it in your opinion that will

keep Pi Kappa Phi a strong leader? In regards to Pi Kappa Phi being a leader, I am really

excited about our Journey Project. We are putting into play the principles of Pi Kappa Phi which have been around since the founders first created our Fraternity. We are now applying those prip.ciples to a

structured program in which we can see the natural development of our members. The uniformity of the project can then be emulated by each chapter across

the country. Pi Kappa Phi will remain strong in

today's Greek world, because of programs like the

Journey, our dedication to service through PUSH

America and a standard of excellence to which each

member and each chapter is held accountable.

What are your goals for the

next two years?

1. Professional development. I

would like to develop alumni

programs similar to Pi Kapp

College, geared to further exposure,

networking and professional

growth for our alumnus member.

2. Financial support. I would like to

lessen the reliance on student

members for financial support of

the national organization. We need

to develop alternative sources of

revenue through business ventures,

alumni, and programming.

3. Emphasize expansion. With The

Journey, PUSH America, and

continued alumni involvement, Pi

Kappa Phi is managing to open

doors on campuses that other

Greek organizations are not. We

need to continue to seize those

opportunities and create new ones.

4. "Gear Up Florida." We can take

the Journey of Hope concept which

continues to be successful on a

national level, and apply it to the

state of Florida. A bicycle trip to

raise awareness and money for

people with disabilities through

Florida will allow more members to share in the

experience and reach a larger audience with the mission of Pi Kappa Phi and PUSH America.

How has Pi Kappa Phi affected your life? Pi Kappa Phi shaped my professional development.

It gave me the opportunity to interact with people

from diverse backgrounds. It taught me the impor­

tance of reaching consensus and developed my

leadership skills, giving me the confidence to take

the next step. By no coincidence, my best friends in

life are Pi Kapps.

How would you like to see

Pi Kappa Phi affect the lives

of today's undergraduate

members?

I would like the experience of

today's members to be a mirror

of my own. Each member can

take something unique from Pi

Kappa Phi and give something of

themselves back. It is an under­

graduate member's opportunity

to exercise leadership skills and

interrelate with fellow human

beings. Pi Kappa Phi should

enhance the well being of an

individual -- making him a better

person. To most, college equals

scholastic growth, but it is also

the experience that the Fraternity

has given them.

How would you like to see

Pi Kappa Phi affect the lives of

today's alumni members?

I want our

alumni to better

understand that

they have a

lifetime mem­

bership in their

Fraternity and

from that

"It's a privilege to

derive some

benefit -- whether it be skills,

contacts, involvement with our national projects, or professional enhancement. Pi Kappa Phi continues to put out quality graduates. As alumni we can

still take pride in that. *

Dear Pi Kappa Phi:

My hwband, Robert ("Brent") Ban; died on March 23, 1995 after a long but courageous battle with AIDS. Brent was a member of the Alpha Theta Chapter at Michi­gan State University- Class of 1989.

Brent loved Pi Kappa Phi and he talked about his fraternity days quite frequendy. He gained many wonderful and lasting friendships through his experience in Pi Kappa Phi. In fact, an old fraternity brother. .• would drive close to two holm each way from Santa Cruz to San Francisco to spend time with Brent when he was sick and could not leave the howe. They would constantly reminisce about Greek Week events, weekend fraternity parties and PUSH America events that they worked on together. [Brent's Pi Kapp brother} made this trip on a regular basis for over six months until Brent died. That bond of friendship and loyalty truly touched my heart.

Thank you for giving Brent a sense of brotheriJootL loyalty and belonging. I would appreciate it if you would remove Brent's name from your future mailing lists, so we can save a few u.es. Also, could you please report in your next magazine that Brent had passed away last yeart There may be some brothers out there that I was not tlble to contact. Thank you.

Cornell Pi Kapp covers summer's hottest events (cont.) Continued from page 1 7

the crew for their cross country trek, following

the Olympic torch until

it reached the site of the

Centennial Olympics

in Atlanta.

Lockard

describes the experience

as a "baptism by fire."

He immediately had to

learn how to script

interviews and work the cameras if necessary.

He was responsib le for making first contact with

all interviewees and performing all the pre­

interview preparations. Plus, on most days he

was running on three hours

of sleep or less.

"The experience

really pushed me to the

limit," said Lockard. "How­

ever, every day was a new

adventure and another chance

to meet new people and see

more of the country."

He also carried the

torch in Niagara Falls and

was able to spend a few days at the Olympics.

During the summer,

Lockard had the fortune

of meeting the executive

producer of World News

Tonight who offered him

a chance to work for

ABC during both the

Republican and Demo­

cratic National Conven­

tions. So, once the torch

had arrived in Atlanta,

Lockard was off to

spend three weeks in San Diego and two weeks

in Chicago to work on the set of World News

Tonight. His primary responsibilities were

"everything from setting up and tearing down

sets to getting Peter Jennings Fresca Cola."

Lockard will return to Cornell for the

spring semester which, he says, may be a bit

hard to get used to after such a free-spirited

adventure. His future plans include obtain­

ing his degree in Labor Relations and

possibly law school. Mostly though, he

wants to "live life one day at a time and get

the most out of each day."

"I am extremely thankful to God for all

my great experiences and will continue to

follow what He has planned for me."

He has also planned one last excursion

before returning to Cornell. He is traveling to

Mexico with a Christian organization to help

build houses for the impoverished . They will be

bringing toys and gifts for children in the area to

help them celebrate the holidays. *

WINTER 19 9 7 27

in his sixth

year with the

league. He

was named

Coach of the Year after his

Yakima Sun Kings won the 1995

championship. He repeated as

CBA champion with the Sioux

Falls Skyforce in 1996. He owns

the CBA's second highest playoff

winning percentage at 66.7%

(22-11) and is back with the

Skyforce this winter.

Forward Scott Haskin,

the Fraternity's most recent NBA

player, was the Indiana Pacers'

first round draft pick in 1993.

The former Oregon State (Alpha

Zeta) star has fought injuries

during most of his pro career but

did play in 27 games in 1994. At

OSU, he earned All-Pac-10

honors in 1992-93, was team

MVP both seasons and twice

won the Ed Lewis Trophy for

leadership. The Beavers' career

28 THE STAR & LAMP

blocked shots

leader with 172,

Haskin also ranks

sixth in career

field goal shoot­

ing (55 .0%),

eighth in career

rebounds ( 620)

and ninth in

career scoring (1,319 points) .

His best year was 1992 with

558 points (18.0), 201 re­

bounds ( 6.5), 68 blocks,

61.2% field goal percentage

and a career high 33 points

versus the USC Trojans.

Several other OSU

athletes have played well in the

1990s. Forward Chad Scott was

co-winner of the Lew Beck Award

as outstanding newcomer in

1991, leading in scoring (17 .8)

and rebounding (8.3) . He was

also named to the Far West

Classic all-tournament team that

season. Henrik Ringmar won

team's Paul Valenti Award for

greatest desire and determination

in 1991 and was joined on the

squad by letterman Travis Stel.

Other key players of recent

vintage include

Wofford's 1986

co-captain Mike

Beardsley and

guard Brandon

Brewington,

whose last year was 1994, plus

tark Melton,

the top re­

bounder for

Washington & Lee in 1992.

The Fraternity's most

recent star is guard Ia on Bul­

lock, who played his final year in

1996. He helped lead Indiana

(Pa.) to the best record (80-12)

over the last three years in NCM

Division I or II and three appear­

ances at the Division II "Sweet

Sixteen" tournament level. As a

freshman, he was PSAC West

Rookie of the Year, scoring 327

points (including a career high

32) and shooting 85.3% at the

line. In his sophomore year,

Bullock scored 342 points ( 11.1 ),

hit 49.1% of his 3-point attempts

and was on the IUP Classic all-

tournament team.

Bullock excelled again

in the 1995 season, setting a

school record with 85 3-point

field goals, dishing out a career

high 99 assists and scoring 331

points (10.7). Even though his

totals dropped off a bit in 1996,

he now ranks first in IUP career

free throw shooting (81.5%),

first in career 3-pointers (287)

and 11th in career scoring (1 ,261

points (10.6) . *
