Whittaker 1970 When asked to write a recap of the 45th Annual Norris Pig Dinner from a Graduate Brother perspective, I became aware that “the Pig” is more than a one night banquet. I also found that Brother Frank Norris had presented me with an excellent template for presenting a grad’s-eye view of the occasion. I had the Robert Keating, Steve Bowersox, Frank Crabtree, Jeff Ruiz, Greg Dennis, Tony honor of delivering Tweety, Mike Lucas, Gary Rosebure, Bob Murphy, Ralph Heatly, A.L.

I was particularly impressed by the number of Brothers who have stayed in contact with each other over the years. Tales of trips to Australia to visit a Brother, long weekenders at the lake, hooking up to “see der team joost knowck’em into Hell.” It was also great to witness those who had been in Exile for years or decades find a big welcoming from their pledge Brothers, Big and Little Brothers, Sons and Sires, and other new and old Fijis. Sadly, we also remembered Brothers gone ad astra and recognized the ephemeral nature of life and how “– Hands round—between us alle it is der Gommon link” our fraternal bonds do indeed exemplify the statement “Friendship, the sweetest in- All Graduate Brothers I have spoken to are filled with pride knowing Sigma Omicron is doing most excellent. Reading about the achievements in grades, community service, campus leadership and events in the Sigma Omicronicle or the Phi Gamma Delta magazine is heart warming. It does not hold a candle to meeting and talking with our Wilkinson Award winners, the 4.0 guys, Homecoming King, and the various other achievers. Sigma Omicron is special to us all. It is worth noting that opening the banquet to dates and spouses makes us unique in Fijiland. All Graduate Brothers enjoyed meeting the dates of the members (proof that Phi Gam is number 1) and especially having an opportunity to visit with Fiji sweethearts of the Graduate Brothers. Having the ladies present also helps hold down the food fights. Reviewing the nuts and bolts of the 45th Pig shows that the event was meticulously planned, promoted, and organized. Brother Jared Denny and his event team had all bases covered. The Conoco-Phillips center was a perfect venue. Grads can easily visit the House, stroll campus, and get to A.L. Bennett, Bob Murphy, Ron Harp and Phil Webb the banquet without moving their cars. The banquet room was packed with loyal Fijis no doubt having too much fun to realize that the food was good and the service excellent. The post Pig Dinner chatter was all about the benchmark set by this special day. The biggest attendance, the best venue, a rousing recognition of the decades of service to Sigma Omicron by Brother Bob Hamm, an inspirational speech by Brother Bill Rodgers of Nu Omega (don’t forget the grip), and then to top it off by having the 319 (bar on the strip) to our purple selves….in a word it was FIJIGERIFFIC. The challenge is now to meet or exceed the success of the 45th Pig. The key to our success is simple….when you get the date start calling your Brothers and get commitments to attend. Look the Pig in the Eye; you will see the reflection that: “Der team of your time is the same as mine; Bring another Bro and sing Auld lang syne. Take the pledge to always do the Pig; never groan. Live our Fiji motto: “Not for College Days Alone”. Layne Horton, Randall Whittaker, Chad Duty and Jared Denny Thanks to These Brothers Who Made Pig Dinner Donations Micah Anderson - 2002 James R.

I was the first person in my family to attend college, so not only did I not know much about college life, I certainly did not know anything about Greek life. But several high school buddies encouraged me to attend some summer rush parties and sign up for fall rush. (At this point in my answers you have probably noticed that academics have not entered the picture. Some of us set out to master the social side of the equation.) My brother had a friend whose father was a Fiji at OU and he sent a recommendation in to the OSU chapter which, at the time, was only a colony. My attraction to the Fijis was their small size. I don’t think there were more than 15 to 20 members and pledges and about 25% lived outside the house. The idea of getting in on the ground floor of a new fraternity on campus was exciting. What is your favorite memory as an undergraduate? So much time has passed since graduation not one memory stands out. A lot can never be put into print even after all these years. Instead there are a bunch of instances that come to mind. Most of them revolve around living in the “gingerbread” house and the annex: Living in the annex dorm style and learning to sleep in the same room with a bunch of guys who were always playing pranks on each other at all hours of the night. Getting revenge on the pledges for taking a pledge sneak by putting lim- burger cheese in the heating vents of their annex. If the annex was still standing it probably would still smell like limburger cheese. The house catching fire while were eating dinner and most of us simply taking our dinner outside to eat and watch the firemen do their thing. Playing touch football in the front yard. Living in the “black” room facing the girls dorm. (The logic of a “black” room will escape all those except the ones who lived in it). Watching Fred Mostrom come into the dining room for dinner with socks on over his shoes because Mom Wright had told him he could not come into the dining room wearing shoes and no socks. Hearing that same Mom Wright scream when she noticed someone had frozen some goldfish in ice cubes and put them in her iced tea. On and on and on... What is your favorite memory as a graduate so far? I moved from Oklahoma in the late 80s so I have not been around the fraternity brothers I lived with so most of those early graduate memories have faded. (too much good wine.) I think what I have enjoyed the most is watching the Sigma Omicron Chapter thrive. I have watched it grow from a colony, an average chapter, decline, recolonize, and today it is one of the top fraternities on the OSU campus. That is a real source of pride. What kind of influence has the Fraternity had on your life? The biggest influence Phi Gam had on me was it provided me with a goal to get initiated, which in turn required that I develop good study habits to make sure I graduated. In short, had it not been for the Fraternity, I am not sure I would have finished, and in those days, if you weren’t in college, you were in Vietnam. Tell us about your family. Linda (Grif) and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. Linda graduated from OSU where she was a Kappa. We have two children, Jennifer and Josh. Jennifer lives in San Antonio, TX with her husband and our three grandchildren, Ryan, Jake and Sawyer. Jennifer graduated from Texas A & M and, like her mother, taught elementary school for a few years before becoming a homemaker. Our son Josh graduated from Indiana University and currently lives in Santa Monica, CA. He leases office space in the Los Angeles area and is engaged to be married this August. Tell us about your career. I spent the first five years after college teaching in the Oklahoma City school system while I was going to graduate school at OU at night. Upon leaving teaching, I entered the real estate business. I have spent most of my time in the commercial office investment sector. During that time, we have lived in Denver, Houston, Chicago and currently Newport Beach, CA. I currently am president of the office division of The Irvine Company, a large owner and developer of real estate in southern California. What are your major interests now? Besides spending time with my family, especially my grandchildren, my passion is riding one of my sport motorcycles. I own a BMW and a Ducati. The California weather is ideal for year-around riding, either along the Pacific Coast Highway or the winding roads in the mountains. Great therapy. Get in touch with Val at: E.

We would like to inform you of any and all news & major decisions of the house corporation, Sigma Omicron Housing Association, Inc. In another portion of this issue of The Sigma Omicronicle, we will list the generous donors of the annual campaign. Thank you for all you’ve done to help your chapter & your house corporation in 2007-2008! In 2007-08, we used Affinity Connection (AC), based in State College, PA to help publish The Sigma Omicronicle, keep our database up-to-date, solicit for the annual campaign & manage the collection of your thoughtful gifts. As we reviewed our annual contract with AC for the upcoming year, we decided the financial resources you’ve graciously given SOHA should be used wisely and conservatively. Therefore, we are proceeding with an agreement with the International Headquarters and Foundation of PGD in Lexington, KY. The HQ staff has been a loyal ally to the SOHA and the chapter for many years. Not only are they not-forprofit, but they have a more vested interest in our long-term success. Please be patient as we make this transition to PGD International! We are excited about our second year of the annual campaign, launching a more user-friendly chapter/graduate website (launching August 2008), and sharing our goals, desires & dreams with you! SIGMA OMICRON AAA SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS Academic Achievement Awards (AAA) are just one benefit the Phi Gamma Delta Educational Foundation provides to undergraduate brothers - a $250 check to new initiates for achieving at least a 3.0 GPA during their pledge term. Phi Gamma Delta is the only national fraternity or sorority to offer this blanketed scholarship that helps get our new brothers focused on their academics. Thanks to those donors who support the Phi Gamma Delta Educational Foundation. Since its inception in 1999, AAA scholarship has awarded 188 Sigma Omicron brothers, including this list of current brothers who received the AAA this year: Peter Douglas Alig Jonathan Howard Allison Jonathan Andrew Chang Robert Allan Clark John Michael Cook Brian Richard Denneny Ry James Fleming Joseph James Goolsby 2011 2010 2011 2010 2011 2010 2011 2011 Matthew David Howard Brent Scott Morris Brandon Patrick Padden John Darrell Paxton Colby Keith Pistocco Gaylon Zachary Russell Bernard John Stukenborg Kyle Brian Venamon 2011 2009 2010 2011 2009 2011 2011 2010 ANONYMOUS GRADUATE BROTHERS PAY FOR LAWN CARE Many thanks to the four generous graduate brothers who donated to provide lawn care at the chapter house this summer! These brothers have stepped up and helped up to ensure that the yard and landscaping is well kept and attractive for campus visitors and rushees. If there is a specific project or endeavor that you would like to help support at the Phi Gam house, please contact Chris Neurohr at (918) 588-5046 or cneurohr@scissortailenergy.com. \r\nT HE S IG MA OMIC R ONIC LE PAGE 5 AD ASTRA Sigma Omicron said goodbye to two brothers earlier this year. We extend our deepest condolences to their families. Mark A. Rice 1983 Mark Rice, pledge class of 1979, lost his battle with cancer May 14 and gained the eternal brotherhood in the Glory of Heaven. The OSU FIJI Chapter of today probably did not know Mark, but if you ever have an opportunity to visit with any Brother from the late 70s to Mid 80s, you'll find out just how great a Brother this man was to us all. Back in the days in the FIJI house, Mark was often referred to as Superman and Big Mark. Big Mark was the premier athlete of Sigma Omicron, our quarterback, our center, our point man and our cleanup hitter. Mark was also the protector, standing probably close to 6'6". No one ever wanted to mess with anyone from the FIJI house with Big Mark standing behind us (just ask Brother Greg Cain). Back in the hey day of the old A D Pi Play-day with the drinkathlons, Big Mark was always counted on to push the FIJI house over the top (after Brother Greg Cain would finally pass out) and to our 3-peat championship, winning the title 3 years straight and then Mark would be the one to escort us home (often carrying Brother Greg Cain over his shoulders). Big Mark also at one time was (and would be willing to bet still is) the all-time reining coney island coney dog champion. After a night out on the strip (with Brother Greg Cain…you guys seeing a connection here), Mark consumed over 30 coney dogs in one sitting. Our Brother Big Mark fought a courageous battle to the end (with Brother Greg Cain faithfully by Big Mark's side just as Mark had been for him). So many times during his battle, it was the memory of our brotherhood with so many FIJIs and our old FIJI days that brought Big Mark so many smiles, laughter and stories. Although so many of us did not see or have an opportunity to visit with Big Mark through the years after college, we all continued to have the same bond today as we did way back then proving that the FIJI brotherhood is a tremendous asset and a tremendous friend to have with you through the years. It is times like this that our motto stands true…. Phi Gamma Delta is “Not Just for College Days Alone.” Remember this motto our FIJI brothers and please remember our brother, Big Mark Rice. Dwayne Young, 1985 Ernest C. Young, Jr. 1966 Ernest Claypool Young, Jr. passed away at home on June 4, 2008 after a long illness. Ernie was born December 10, 1944 in Sentinel, OK. He is survived by his wife of 30 years, Marylyn. He also leaves his sons Andrew, Christopher, Ryan, Andrew's wife Christina, and their children Simon and Abby. He is also survived by his mother Alta Fuller; brother James, Col. US Army (ret.); and his wife Jody; their children Boe, Chad, and Josh; sister, Theresa Fuller; and her children Emma and Avery; cousins Lee Card, Henry Card and J.D. Jenkins. He is preceded in death by his daughter, Lauren; his father Col. Ernest C. Young, Sr., and his step father GM Fuller. After graduating from Oklahoma State University, he spent two years in Germany as a lieutenant in the Army. He moved to Albuquerque in 1969 and started his career as an interior designer. His wit and sense of style attracted many friends and clients throughout the years. He was well loved and will be deeply missed by all who knew him. A celebration of Ernie's Life was held at 2:00 p.m., Monday, June 16 at St. John's Episcopal Cathedral, 318 Silver SW. \r\nPAGE 6 T HE S IG MA OMIC R ONIC LE THANK YOU DONORS Sigma Omicron would like to thank and recognize our 2007-08 donors.
