Eric was more eloquent that me:
Brothers,
Thank you for coming to Founder's Day Dinner 2007! We have once again set a record for alumni attendance. Evidently, the event has grown in popularity to the point where people are willing to travel long distances to join us - Andrew Schwartz came in from LA, and Nick
Hsu flew all the way from New York City!
Our speaker was Paul
Wineman, National Vice President. He gave a lengthy and heartfelt speech encouraging alumni to get more involved with the actives. They need our support, and even a small investment like having lunch with an undergraduate once per quarter can have a lasting impact on their lives. I will do my best to promote more events which include the undergrads. You can expect some informal active/alumni barbecues in the future.
There are so many things to love about big events like this. But if there's one thing I don't like, it's not having enough time to catch up with everyone.
On that note, please send me more alumni news for the newsletter! Remember to include your initiation year, email address and pictures, if you desire. I've received several news updates already, and I'm very surprised by the number of recent engagements, marriages, and newborns. We may not have enough room for so many pictures of cute baby Phi Psi's!
Thanks again,
-Eric...
