Shawnee State, Go Bears!

I had the pleasure of working with our colony at Shawnee State Univeristy in southern Ohio this week.

Portsmouth, OH borders Kentucky and is separated by the Ohio River. This institution has a history of helping those achieve an education on a limited budget and our chapter embodies that. They have only 6 alumni and have already created scholarships for prospective members through those alumni and the chapter.

"I believe in that broad conception of democracy which seeks freedom of opportunity and recognizes no color, race, creed, or position."

Seen above, Don teaches a class of 11 new brothers.

These men impressed me with their grasp of service, the knowledge of what it means to be a good fraternity man and the differences between leadership/management. They will have a chapter advisory board up and running very shortly, headed by Jonathan F. James, Residence Coordinator. This colony is an up-and-comer, I would not be surprised if they were presenting for national chapter of the year in only a few short years.
