Gentlemen,
It is with sincere pride that we introduce an initiative that has been long discussed but little executed: The Letter.
Consider this link your portal to a world chronologically passed, but spiritually ever-present: frat. It is a way to live vicariously through our collective memory and ongoing narrative. It is a way to contact brothers, post inquiries, share stories and humiliate friends/enemies if need be.
We hope this resource reaches a vast network of Brothers who utilize it frequently, keeping content fresh and pertinent. If not…it has the potential to suck real, real bad.
A special thanks to technology, who has made it possible for us to get our shit together.
A brief synopsis of the workings hereof is outlined below, should anyone be interested:
I. In the main section you will find the running blog. This blog will be updated with monthly highlights from various classes, including the proceedings of the fraternity as it exists on campus. Other entries will include:
i. humorous links
ii. tributes to frat-stars
iii. spot-lights on Eta-Prime ballers and their exploits etc.
We’ve all read alumni news letters. This will be like that…except tight.
II. On the right you will see links for each of the class years listed, and a Masterdoc. Within those links you will find:
· Individual contact information (if provided by the Brother)
· The class’ listserv address, should you want to email en-masse
· The ability to sort the Masterdoc by State, City or Country to find Brothers near you
III. As time goes on, you will find a link to a word doc of a few hand-selected, legendary emails from years past…should you be bored and/or reminiscent.
We’ve asked a few representatives from each of the classes to compile this information and submit it on behalf of their cohorts. They will also coordinate general updates and/or entertaining accounts from their immediate brothers to send out to the group. We’ve tried to base this on technological saavy, relevant fratting experience, reliability and willingness to help. If you think you can do better than someone listed here, let us know and you can usurp them:
2009: Javier Rodriguez
2008: Hanley Fanzler
2007: Ryan Eick, Ben Rubinfeld, Paul Kettering
2006: Michael Kenney, Leonardo Fishman
2005: David Peck, Ben Rich
2004: William Hannenberg,
To post: you can post easily in the comments within the general running blog. This should be straight-forward for anyone who has used a computer.
For those of you who would like to make new posts in the main section, it may require a quick walk-through email that we can forward on request.
We sincerely hope that this site has the ability to unite old friends and keep us, in some ways, hip to the goings on of our Brothers worldwide. Of course, it will only be as successful as you make it, so we urge you to stay connected.
Enjoy,
