UNIVERSITY OF IDAHODELTA TAU DELTADelta Mu Chapter

On behalf of the campaign leadership, I must thankeach of you who have participated in our efforts to renovate andexpand the Shelter. To date, we have received $1,309,198 inpledges and gifts from 136 brothers. It is gratifying to see somany of you wholeheartedly believe in and support this vital project.

Even with this success, we still have a long way to go in order tocomplete this restoration project and ensure our financial stability.We need the support of all brothers to add to the 136 loyal brotherswho have already contributed. We must raise more than$890,000 to achieve our $2.2 million envisioned goal.

If we are going to attract and retain quality men and offer theman environment to grow, then providing the best educational andsocial environment is absolutely essential. Here’s the bottom linefor today’s entering student: unless he comes from a fraternitybackground, he will be wowed by the new apartment-style dormsthe University has built. It’s clear, like it or not, that the chaptersthat have renovated their homes do better in recruitment. TheSigma Nus are currently involved in their own renovation projectfrom a similar fundraising effort.

In our day, many of us took for granted what it takes to have aquality physical structure. As one brother put it, “We have allwarmed ourselves by a fire we didn’t build. Now it’s time to throwour own logs onto the fire.” Right here and now, your financialresources are what will make the difference in the future of ourbeloved chapter. By investing in this project, you are investing inthe future leaders of our 21st century.

Your pledge is needed today. Every gift to the campaign is signif-icant and greatly appreciated. Remember, a five-year pledgeperiod is available to allow you to stretch your gift. Like manyhave already done, you may give a memorial gift in honor of afamily member, pledge brother, or a housemother. Simply complete and return the enclosed pledge card indicating your giftto the campaign.

Each donor who contributes $1,000 or more will be recognizedon a prominently displayed plaque in the new Shelter. If youwould like more information about the campaign, contact JerryCooper, campaign coordinator, at (785) 843-1661 orcooper@penningtonco.com.

Again, on behalf of all Delta Tau Delta brothers—past, present,and future—we would like to personally thank you for your

continued interest in and support of Delta TauDelta at the University of Idaho. It has proven tobe a very special brotherhood.

Fraternally,John A. Rosholt ’59 Campaign Chairmanjar@idahowaters.com
