Memorable stories
from my times at Theta Iota: Tons! I don't know how much detail I should go into, but my first semester
after pledging was great! I loved finding out all the stuff that went on behind
the scenes for the PM's. Designating my
pledge brother Karl Himmelmann as "dangerous" while we made our banner, laughing
so hard that Paul Geer almost peed himself, switching over from paddles to lyres
(my dad cut the template for the first class of lyres!), "Schmatt" sessions, and
lots more. I still think of pledging as one of the smartest things I ever did. My paddle
still hangs in my den, and my pledge book is still a treasure to me. Maybe my
best memory is all the singing. Sing every song in the Redbook! It's worth the
time taken from busy schedules!
