Dear Brothers: Once again we are pleased to share with you news and information about your Fraternity and Educational Foundation. This publication is possible because of the generous support of Pi Lam brothers, who have contributed to the Pi Lambda Phi Educational Foundation in 2006. This past year, over 830 alumni brothers have supported the work of the Foundation, a 12% increase over the previous year! Their donations are greatly appreciated and we proudly list their names beginning on page 4. Additionally, beginning on page 8, the Foundation is pleased to recognize 653 brothers, celebrating a milestone anniversary of 75, 50, or 25 years since their initiation into Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity. The purpose of the Pi Lambda Phi Educational Foundation is to support the educational and scholarship efforts of our Fraternity. This past year, the Foundation has increased its support of the Fraternity and expanded the number of scholarships awarded to individual undergraduate brothers. The Foundation also strives to judicially mange overhead costs associated with running a modern Foundation. This publication was created “in-house,” by the Foundation Administrator, Denise Avanzato, with additional articles and content contributed by Fraternity brothers. Denise is the only paid employee of the Foundation, working on a part-time basis. All Trustees are volunteers who pay their own expenses to attend meetings with other brothers, such as George Bruckman, who provides legal advice and support. This year, the Foundation hopes to continue making forward strides by expanding scholarship opportunities for undergraduate brothers. It is also hoped to continue assisting the Fraternity in its effort to provide the valuable and critical financial support necessary for educational programs offered to the chapters. Fraternity educational efforts targeted to risk management, chapter leadership training, substance abuse, prejudice, etc., help our brothers develop strong chapters and, most importantly, establish essential character traits necessary to compete on campus and after graduation. Thanks for a terrific 2006, and we all look forward to another great year in the history of Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity! Fraternally,

PI LAMBDA PHI EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION, INC.

AN IRS RECOGNIZED CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION

Pittsburgh to Host 2007 Convention The Pi Lambda Phi Convention Committee has selected Pittsburgh to host this year’s 112th Annual Leadership Convention. Pittsburgh is central to many of our chapters and it offers a great summer location with many activities for both undergraduate and alumni attendees. The Fraternity, with the aid of the Educational Foundation, is focused on providing training and educating members, who subscribe to our principles and values of tolerance and a better understanding ‘twixt men. As plans progress, further information regarding Convention 2007 will be provided on the Fraternity website at www.pilambdaphi.org. The International Executive Council, through the support of the Educational Foundation, has been developing and testing programming for the leaders of today. These programs facilitate the growth of our members. Your donations to the Educational Foundation help fund the leadership, educational and training programs offered to our undergraduate leaders.

We thank you for your support!

Spring 2007 Educational Foundation

Scholarships The Pi Lambda Phi Educational Foundation, through the generosity of alumni who have contributed to the 2006 Annual Alumni Donation Program, has awarded three scholarships for the spring 2007 semester. The following undergraduate brothers have received $2,500 each, payable toward their academic expenses at their respective universities. On behalf of these brothers, the Educational Foundation extends sincere gratitude to its alumni…for it is through your support that this scholarship program is again possible. Providing this program, and the many other programs that have been offered through the Foundation, is vital to the personal and academic development of our undergraduate brotherhood!

Ian Scott Lowe ‘07 OH Beta Tau Baldwin-Wallace College

Ian is a senior attending Baldwin-Wallace College, majoring in History and Secondary Education. He is a resident of McDonald, PA, and was initiated a member of the OH Beta Tau chapter in 2005. Ian has held chapter positions as Rex, New Member Class President, Fundraising Director, Recruitment Director, and Recruitment Director Advisor, and has served on the Standards (Judicial) Board. Additionally he was honored as Greek Outstanding New Member of the Year (2005). With a cumulative GPA of 3.36, Ian has deservingly made the Dean’s List in fall 2005 and spring 2006, and has been honored by Omicron Delta Kappa and the Order of Omega. Since 2004, Brother Lowe has served the U.S. Air Force Reserves as a Senior Airman, and has been promoted twice to advancing levels of leadership. In is “spare” time, Ian has been extensively involved in both campus and community organizations including, but not limited to, Office of Community Outreach, Alumni Student Ambassadors, Emerging Leaders, Sophomore Class Treasurer, Residence Life Staff, Teaching Together, Students for a Free Tibet, Toastmasters International, and the World Affairs Council of Pittsburgh. In his future, Ian sees plans to continue serving our country as a commissioned officer of the U.S. Air Force, and hopes to some day have the opportunity to join the Peace Corp or some equivalent human services group. Educating and mentoring is also an aspiration, as he would eventually like to teach and later shift to the administration level within the educational system.

Michael E. Jankosky ‘07, OH Beta Tau Baldwin-Wallace College

Aspiring to a career in the performing arts, namely opera, Michael is pursuing a BA Music (voice) at Baldwin-Wallace. Furthering his education after graduation in 2007, he plans to acquire an MA Music, and dedicate himself to bringing the performing arts to deficient regions in our country. Michael was initiated into OH Beta Tau in 2006. In addition to his educational diligence - consistently maintaining his status on the Dean List with a cumulative GPA of 3.85 - he has actively contributed to his chapter as a Fundraising Committee Leader, organizing and executing more fundraising and philanthropic events for chapter operations and dues payments than in any other period in the chapter’s revitalization.

Michael enjoys racquetball, in-line skating , baseball, frisbee and skateboarding. Through his experiences as a member of Pi Lambda Phi, Michael feels he has gained the leadership skills necessary to organize his arts advocacy plans and advance his exposure and connections on campus. Not only has he become more connected with the campus as a mover, he has learned to connect with other men in a profound manner, establishing bonds of true honor and trust.

He has held the positions of Scribe, Communications Committee Advisor, Public Relations Chair, and a member of the Recruitment Committee for the OH Beta Tau chapter.

Pi Lambda Phi 111th Anniversary Leadership Convention 2006

By Gary E. Sanders Executive Director, Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity In August 2006, The University of Cincinnati welcomed more than 80 undergraduate and alumni Pi Lams from across the US and Canada for the Fraternity’s 111th annual convention. Andy Golbert, ‘65 PA Sigma, Lafayette, organized a tremendous event. Convention is the opportunity for our undergraduates to realize our brotherhood reaches beyond the towns of their university. The attendees spent four days participating in sessions that enhanced their brotherhood experiences. Our education was focused on the needs of our chapters. Shawn Upchurch, ‘94 OH Beta Tau at Baldwin-Wallace College, a professional recruiter, provided an intensive recruitment seminar that was recorded and distributed to the chapters. Throughout the three days of sessions delegates gained education to improve themselves and their chapters. Each delegate participated in sessions regarding new member programs, finances, alumni relations, risk management, leadership, and philanthropy. Delegates were able to share ideas and practices which improve our Fraternity. We were honored to have Harrison Dillard, ‘49 OH Beta Tau, deliver the keynote speech. Brother Dillard gave an inspirational talk about his struggles to win the 100-meter hurdles Olympic Gold medal in 1948 London. Dillard’s colorful language took us from him as a young boy idolizing Jesse Owens to a photo finish win of his own –

“The ultimate continuing strength of a college fraternity rests with its alumni members. The chapter’s undergraduates come and go, its leaders change, its programs modified, and its home replaced, but its alumni maintain a lifelong association that ends with only death. As each generation dies, a new one matures to provide the continuity that perpetuates the fraternity. Alumni members are keepers of the tradition, preferred stockholders in enterprise, the mark of its accomplishments.” - Stewart S. Howe 1958 The Frater ** 10

Three New Foundation Trustees (continued from page 1) At the 1960 PLP Annual convention, he was elected undergraduate Chairman. In 1965, Ron earned his medical degree from The University of Pittsburgh and, upon completing his residency in 1970, he entered private practice in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In 1995, Ron earned his masters degree in American Studies from Pen State University and taught U.S. American History at Harrisburg Community College. Retired in 1999, Ron lives in Naples, Florida with his lovely wife, Parker. They have three grown children, one of whom is a Pi Lam at Penn State.

George A. Beck, H.B. ‘43 VA Omega Alpha University of Virginia

Executive Director Emeritus George was initiated a Pilam in 1940, as a member of the VA Omega Alpha Chapter at the University of Virginia. He served his chapter as house manager, KOE and Rex and was involved in both the purchase and furnishings of the Pi Lam Hillel House and the current Fraternity House at 504 Rugby Road. In 1966, he became Executive Secretary of the International Fraternity and, after 26 years of service, was honored with the position of Executive Director Emeritus. George received PiLam’s highest award, the Diamond Council Key. He is a recipient of Theta Chi’s Chapman Alter Award for Inter-fraternal Excellence, and proudly wears the North-American Inter-fraternity Conference’s gold medal, the NIC’s highest award. He continues to serve as a Director of the NIC’s Inter-fraternity Foundation. Furthering his service to Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity, George has personally funded a restricted scholarship fund, under the guidance of the Educational Foundation, which offers annual scholarships to the VA Omega Alpha Chapter, as well as the general undergraduate membership of Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity. As a Foundation Trustee, George’s volunteer efforts will concentrate on the major donor membership of the Fraternity’s alumni donor program. George and his wife, Barrie, enjoy their days in both Pennsylvania and Florida, and share the pleasures of their 6 children and 7 grandchildren.

Chapter Eternal

"Reprinted with permission - Torstar Syndication Services"

Kelly Silverstein, 42: A full life's worth of big-hearted giving January 11, 2007 CATHERINE DUNPHY OBITUARY WRITER

People usually have only nice things to say about the departed – some of which might even be true – but with Kelly Silverstein people always had only nice things to say about him.

He really was just the greatest guy. Always there for kids – any kid, not simply his own two boys. He was the fundraiser you could count on. And a coach for eight teams spread through four different sports.

He was the brother who rescued his fraternity when it teetered on bankruptcy. The volunteer who always raised the most money every year at Big Brothers and Big Sisters Bowl for Kids Sake. The parent who donated the Raptors tickets that pushed the bidding over the top at the school auction. The Dad who slipped the school principal a cheque for sports camp for an underprivileged student he thought particularly talented.

So when Silverstein died Nov. 20 at age 42 just four days after he was diagnosed with leukemia, there was a shocked silence throughout his Hillcrest community.

And people wept when they heard. There was standing room only at Holy Blossom Temple – more than 1,200 people attended. The line snaked around the corner, and the service was 25 minutes late starting. "You could feel it," said Rabbi John Moscowitz. "There was a sense the very best one of us had just died."

Silverstein's friends and family – wife Jill, sons Oliver and Jonah – were there, as were his fraternity brothers, his work

colleagues, the teachers from the schools where he coached, kids from the teams he coached, but also the guy who worked in the underground parking lot in the building that housed his office.

He was that kind of guy. "He was a stand-up kind of

guy," said Terry Karis, his barber at the Forest Hill Barber Shop. The two talked about more than the weather when Silverstein came in for his camouflage cut – short on sides, long on top – to hide the hair thinning on top.

In the fall of 2005, Silverstein invited Karis to a hockey old-timers function.

"My son Adam was on the ice with Guy Lafleur. How good is that?" said Karis. It got better, though. Karis had forgotten his camera and just as he and his son were about to leave, Silverstein hauled them over to Lafleur and took their picture together.

"He found a camera somewhere, somehow, because he knew I was a Montreal fan. And he wasn't even one. He put it in a frame and gave it to me. I treasure that picture," said Karis.

"He was goodness personified," said Michael Kalles, a fraternity brother. "He gave his all to everything. He wasn't a guy who asked you to lift a heavy piano and he carried the piano bench. He'd be carrying 15 pianos." When they were students at the University of Western Ontario together, it was Silverstein who started Pi Lambda Phi fraternity.

First they met in a bedroom, then Silverstein got the idea they should rent a house; then he decided they should buy one – which they did, choice real estate at the corner of Cheapside and Richmond Sts. – because he raised a ton of money.

He started a chapter at the University of Windsor as well.

"Kelly did all the heavy lifting," Kalles said. He mobilized them to raise the $10,000 they needed to retain their charter when their chapter got in financial trouble.

"He would say that we have to ensure that the frat would be around when our kids wanted to join." He was always doing it for kids.

"He really was as fine a person as you would ever meet,"

said John Hunter, principal of Hillcrest public school, where the Silverstein sons had attended and their father coached.

He started the basketball team there – for five years he called practices for 7:30 a.m. before he went to work. There was an offer on the table for him to come back and coach again this winter.

"He was so kind to the kids. He had a lot of trouble cutting them (from the team)," Hunter said.

For four years he coached two hockey teams in the North Toronto house league. For even longer he also coached two soccer teams, as well as baseball and basketball teams. Basketball was his favourite sport, possibly because he was six-foot-four.

He'd take his teams out for chicken wings; he'd sweep his sons' friends up along on their family outings.

"Lunch became dinner and then supper. It was always one more invitation. That was the way it was with the whole family. They were a team," said Elaine Lesniak, a single mom whose son, Ari, 14, had been Oliver's best friend until they went to different schools.

That never stopped Silverstein. "At the bus when the kids were going off to camp, Kelly always made sure to give Ari a big hug," she said.

"Every time you are with him, you want to be with him more. You are just drawn to him," said Ari.

Maybe he was just a big kid in some ways. He'd take the family and their friends to a Baskin-Robbins ice cream place, seat them at the window and pay the kids $1 for every person they could get to wave to them. "It was our job to get people to wave, in a freezing cold night," Jill recalled.

Silverstein attacked life, reading three newspapers daily, tearing out articles to send off to friends. "We all got them with the note: FYI, KS," said Bonnie Blonder, Jill's best friend since childhood.

As he was often first in the office of Davis + Henderson cheque makers, he'd put on the coffee. "Kelly just wanted to make sure everyone was happy," said Jill with a smile.

He was the youngest of five children of Sonny and Marlene Silverstein, of Silverstein's Bakery. "He was always being picked up and cuddled," said his only sister Robin Silverstein-Eisen.

The family lived in a cul-de-sac near Lawrence and Marlee in a house with a basketball hoop out front that was the centre of activity for all the neighbourhood kids. Silverstein often took his own family back there. "He called it our `drive-bys,'" said Jill. "He'd always tell the kids who lived in the houses. He wanted us to know about the good things."

In 1998, Silverstein had returned to Toronto after working in Atlanta when his mother was diagnosed with cancer. He postponed finding work to be with her. It was as if he pushed himself to get in a full life's worth of giving.

"This was just his thing – to do for others," said family friend Barbara Silverstein (no relation). "He was so decent. I have never met anyone like him."

"I can't tell you how many people phoned us to volunteer because they heard about us from Kelly," said Heather Sproule, executive director of Big Brothers and Sisters.

The day after Silverstein died, her office received a donation from him via the United Way. "I had no idea that beyond all that he was doing for us, that in his usual quiet fashion he made an annual donation through the United Way."

Next month there will be an award in Silverstein's name at the 2007 Bowl for Kids Sake.

"We thought about it for less than a second," Sproule said. "It will be a fundraising award, which at the least is very fitting." Brother Silverstein was a 1985 graduate of the University of Windsor, and a member of the Canada Kappa Iota chapter of Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity.
