. PHI GAMMA DELTA VE TA S KNOX COLLEGE FIJI G. D. FIJI P.C.A. awinn RUSH ISSUE 1978 DAUXUTAM FRATERNITY OF PHI GAMMA DELTA GAMMA DEUTERON CHAPTER 218 South Cedar Street Galesburg, Illinois 61401 Dear Freshmen; The first goal for all those who come to Knox is a quality education. This is undisputable, however, there is more to a college education than what is normally thought of. The emphasis of Phi Gamma Delta is on out- standing achievement both in the classroom and within the fraternity ex- perience as well. This experience outside of the classroom could be termed Social Development for its members, developing each member to his fullest potential. Learning to be at lease among others is important to us all. Through a varied social program, meaning more than just all- campus keggers, every member can work out his weakpoints and further de- velope his stregnths in social relationships. Therefore, the fraternity is not primarily a place, but rather an experience and an investment. It maybe possible to acquire these bene- fits in a dormitory, but they would lack purpose, permanance and continu- ity and would afford the individual only temporary pride of achievement. This leads us to the idea that lasting fraternity friendships are built during your time at Knox. The fraternity enables you to share experien- ces and a part of life with men striving for goals like yours. Our inter- national fraternity prides itself of being able to say that Phi Gamma Delta is "Not for College Days Alone". Evidence of the inportance the fraternity has in the lives of our graduate brothers comes through the yearly financial support which we receive. Phi Gamma Delta also encourages its members to become active participants in campus intramurals and other extra-currucular activities at Knox; athletics, Union Board, the Gale, the Student, Rifle team etc. We also pride ourselves on our growing acceptance of a responsibility to the city of Galesburg which is evident by our Halloween party for the orphanage and day care center, cancer drive, etc. And as stated before the academic obligations of each individual are stressed; we feel that fraternal living is condusive to scholastic advancement. Within the next few weeks you will have to make a decision whether the fraterntly system at Knox is suited to you. This is not a decision to be made lightly. Phi Gamma Delta at Knox has much to offer and we hope you will feel free to come over to the house to see for yourself. This implies no committment! The main purposes of our rush are to make known to you the kind of people we are and to show you the benefits of fraternal living. We hope we can aid you in making your decision objectively regarding the greek system by being a source of information. We are a diversified house and we urge you to come over anytime to meet personally those of us in the house. We wish you the best of luck in your four years at Knox. Paul R.
