MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dessert First?

Dear Brothers,

When I was a kid, a lot of us wanted to eat dessert first, then maybe have a second dessert, and then call it a meal.

Did you ever know a guy who would sit down to a great meal at a first class restaurant and eat the bread and be finished, or maybe he simply ate the broccoli and then quit?

Most of us want to enjoy all of the meal, Ed Porte1; Oklahoma '65

especially in an expensive restaurant. We may like the salad best, or steak best, but what makes the meal most satisfying is to enjoy each different dish. The totality of the entire dining experience is what creates the most memorable meal.

The same concept holds true in DD. We can enjoy one part of DU, but it is the entire overall experience that makes our common DU heritage the most valuable.

When we joined our individual chapters, we became lifelong friends with our brothers in the chapter. We share sports, social events, community projects, and successes and failures together. However, when we graduate we haven' t yet completed or enjoyed the full benefits of being a DU.

As alumni we get together to share stories, refer business, help our undergraduate chapter and continue the process of BUILDING BETTER MEN.

Possibly the best part of DU is our Leadership Institute. The Delta Upsilon Leadership Institute held annually is the best fraternal convention and educational experience among all fraternities . The 2005 Leadership Institute will be the last weekend in July in Denver, Colorado. It promises to be the best ever.

Enjoy all that DU has to offer. There are several "main courses" and the Leadership Institute is one of them.

Hope to see you in Denver.

Your Brother,

Ed Porter, Oklahoma '65 President

DR. EDWARD C. PRESCOTT, Swarthmore '62, the W. P. Carey Chair of Economics in the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University and a senior monetary advisor at the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank, has been awarded the 2004 Nobel Memorial Prize in economic sciences. Brother Prescott was lauded for a lifetime of original thinking that has addressed some of the most important long-standing questions in macroeconomics. He shares the prize with Finn Kydland of Carnegie Mellon University and the University of California, Santa Barbara. IN ITS ANNOUNCEMENT, the Nobel Committee of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, Stockholm, recognized Prescott and Kydland for their "contributions to dynamic macroeconomics: the time consistency of economic policy and the driving forces behind business cycles." RATHER THAN THINKING of business cycles as malfunctions that need to be fixed , Prescott and Kydland set economics in a new direction by saying business cycles are responses to shocks in the economy. For example, higher oil prices may cause a negative response, while technological innovation can lead to a boom, they said. THE PRIZE, including a check for 10 million Swedish kronor (approximately $1 .36 million) to be shared by the two, a gold medal and a diploma, were presented on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death in 1896. DR. PRESCOTT EARNED a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Swarthmore College, a master of science in operations research from Case-Western Reserve University and a Ph .D. in economics from Carnegie-Mellon University. UNTIL HIS ARRIVAL AT ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY in the fall of 2003, Prescott had been on the faculty of the University of Minnesota for more than 20 years, and held the titles of Regents Professor and McKnight Presidential Endowed Professor. In 2003 Prescott received the Erwin Plein Nemmers Prize in Economics, and in 2002 he received an academic award from the University of Rome. Also in 2002, he presented the Richard T. Ely Lecture, entitled "Prosperity and Depression," at the American Economic Association meetings. He is currently a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Science and the Econometric Society. He has held a number of visiting professorships at universities throughout the United States and Europe. WHILE AT SWARTHMORE, Brother Prescott was an active member of Delta Upsilon Fraternity and was captain of the football team. While certainly the most recent, Dr. Prescott is the fifth DU to win a Nobel Prize and DU's second Nobel laureate from the Swarthmore Chapter - the first was Dr. Christian B. Anfinsen , Swarthmore '37, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1972.

FREDERICK R. FORD, Purdue '58, and his wife Mary were honored October 19, 2004 when Purdue University dedicated its third new-style dining court after them. The dining hall was named after Brother Ford for his dedication to Purdue University and his service as Executive Vice President and Treasurer.

THE $18 MILLION DINING COURT on Stadium Avenue is named for the couple who helped make it possible: Frederick R. Ford and his wife, Mary. "Fred Ford 's financial leadership at Purdue - especially his 24 years as executive vice president and treasurer - helped us build one of the largest and best residence hall systems in the country," said Purdue President Martin C. Jischke. 'That management was crucial to our halls and dining facilities, which are completely self-supporting. And Mary was always there to support him and Purdue." MUCH HAS CHANGED in the 68 years since Fred Ford was born in Kentland, Indiana, and the 50 years since he enrolled at Purdue, fresh out of high school and off the family farm in Brook, Ind. "It's amazing to me all the changes, all the options students have now," Brother Ford said. THE TWO-STORY FRED AND MARY FORD DINING COURT on the corner of Stadium Avenue and Russell Street, just south of Ross-Ade Stadium, has seating for 800 and is open to students, faculty, staff and the community. The Ford Dining CourtUniversity Residences' first freestanding dining court - is a colorful marketplace with eight venues under one roof. Selections include: hearth-baked pizzas; Southeast Asian-style dishes cooked in woks; home-style entrees, hot vegetables and carved meats; greens, fresh vegetables, fruit and soups; fried and grilled foods; sliced meat and cheese; international wraps and made-to-order entree salads; Black Angus hamburgers, oven smoked ribs and grilled chicken breasts; fresh waffles; and a wide variety of desserts including fresh-baked pies, self-serve hand-dipped and soft ice cream and the court's signature cookies that measure about six inches across. LARGE WINDOWS LET IN SUNLIGHT, and an abundance of glass adds a light touch surrounded by 28-foot-tall ceilings, ceramic wall tiles and muted carpeting. Wood and limestone wainscoting, maple furniture, modern chandeliers, granite countertops and artwork complete the picture. Diners can choose to sit at tables and chairs, barstools, booths or banquettes. BROTHER FORD WON NUMEROUS AWARDS during his career at Purdue, including the highest honor given by the National Association of College and University Business Officers for making Purdue's "financial operation a model of efficiency and integrity." The association noted several of Ford's innovations, among them: business administrators based in academic and operating units; various training programs for supervisors as well as clerical and service staff; use of tax-exempt commercial paper for financing major capital programs; a computerized cash-management investment system; a 10-year physical plant repair and rehabilitation program; and implementation of employee involvement groups in partiCipative management. FORD ALSO OVERSAW FINANCING AND CONSTRUCTION of more than $400 million in major construction projects and $200 million in major repair and renovation projects, including the Hansen Life Sciences Building; the Beering Hall of Liberal Arts and Education; the power plant expansion; Hillenbrand Hall , a student residence hall; major expansions to the engineering, veterinary medicine and athletic complexes; and a new food science and biotechnology complex. OTHER LANDMARK PROJECTS completed during Ford's tenure include construction of a new bell tower and three outdoor malls - the Purdue Mall , Founder's Park and Academy Park. He also oversaw a telecommunications project to rewire the campus. FORD SERVED AS TREASURER of the Indiana University-Purdue University Foundation at Fort Wayne, vice president and treasurer of the Purdue Academic Facilities Foundation, trustee member of the Purdue Research Foundation and treasurer of the Purdue Foundation. HE RECEIVED AN HONORARY DOCTORATE from Krannert in 1998 and upon retirement was awarded the title executive vice president and treasurer emeritus. Brother Ford served on the Delta Upsilon International Fraternity Board of Directors 1975-78.

"People should never give up ... " That is a quote from Mebrahtom Keflezighi in an interview given to Mawi Asgedom, Harvard '99, for Mawi's newsletter. Brother Asgedom has given us permission to reprint this exciting interview he had with running sensation Meb Keflezighi. For those of you who don't know, Meb was born in Eritrea, became a naturalized US citizen, and became the first American since 1976 to win an Olympic medal in the men's marathon.

Mawi: Meb, as an East African brother, it's such a great honor to interview you . Can you give our readers a summary of your background?

Meb: Well , as you know, I was born in Eritrea and left when I was ten, due to civil war, between Eritrea and Ethiopia. I didn't leave to pursue a running career; I left to have a better life. Many people see a different name and think I came for running . (Some foreign runners come to America to pursue a running career.) I lived in Italy for a year and a half. And then I came to the United States on October 21, 1987. When I was in 7th grade in San Diego, I ran the mile in gym class in 5:20 and the high school coach heard about it and got excited.

After that I started running for real. As a senior in high school, I won the California state championship in both the mile and 2-mile in the same meet, and won 4 national titles at UCLA.

Mawi: What does determination mean to you? How do you define it?

Meb: You set a goal; You DETERMINE that whatever it takes, you will do it. You devote day in and day out to achieve it. You can't be stopped. And even if you don't win the gold and you get a silver, you're still a winner because you put every effort on the line.

Mawi: When I used to run crosscountry in high school, I had a coach who always said that 95% of runners never break the pain barrier. How do you deal

The Quarterly thanks Brother Asgedom for permitting us to excerpt his newsletter. Mawi has been on the faculty of many of DU's conferences and served as keynote speaker. Mawi can be reached at: ~

with pain when running for 26 miles and is there a mythical pain barrier that is only breached by a few?

Meb: Well you said it, 95% never break the barrier. Every day you work out, you try to be in that 5% - when you're hurting that means that everyone else is hurting, so therefore , you say, let me tolerate this pain longer; it might be 30 seconds, maybe 60 seconds, or even 3 minutes; and then you 've left the crowd behind; because not many people can tolerate the pain.

Mawi: What do you think about for 2 hours when you're running the marathon? Does your mind ever wander? Do you ever think, "Man, I wish I had a bike right now?"

Meb: (Laughs.) Shikorinas. (Translated from our native language Tigrynia, "Beautiful Women") As you know, our minds are so quick and can think of lots of stuff. Some of the things I think about: I think about family, competitors, I review my strategy, especially in the early parts of the race. When I'm hurting, I think about God's words and get strength.

Mawi: What is the single biggest quality that allows a human to perform at a high level?

Meb: Discipline. Day in and day out to have a regimen. Like you for example, you have a plan to go help teenagers. How am I gonna inspire these kids? And with that comes a lot of discipline. You may not get to go to all your friends' and families ' parties and weddings. Discipline, to achieve day in and day out to accomplish your long-term goal is the single biggest determinant of success. To get something, you gotta give up something else . Therefore you prioritize on what you want to do.

Mawi: What is the funniest thing that happened to you in your career?

Meb: In 9th grade, I was running a cross-country race and I was mistaken for the last guy and the officials made me do the loop again. Then I ran into my brother, who was watching, and he told me I needed to be on the other side of the course. I retraced my strides and had to redo part of the course but I still finished in 10th place.


Mawi: I know you want to write a book and I am so excited to read it. What is the message you would love people to get from your story and M. Asgedom your book?

Meb: Run to Win. Do the best you can . For you, it might be the best you can in inspiring teenagers, for someone else, in engineering. For example, there are about 40,000 people that run a major Marathon like New York; for me it might be to win or get top 5; for someone else it might be to break 4 or 5 hours, but when we accomplish our goal we are a winner, no matter what place we finish ... it is all about finishing and attaining your goal.

Mawi: You now live in Mammoth Lakes, California and you told me that there's 3 feet of snow on the ground there today. How did a brother who was born near the Equator move to one of the coldest places in the United States?

Meb: Two words: Altitude Training. Mammoth Lakes is 8,000 feet above sea level.

Mawi: If I had a bike, and we raced for 26 miles, how many hours ahead of me would you finish?

Meb: (Laughs.) Depends on the course. If it's flat, you got me. If it's hilly, I got you . See, I run against many people on a bike and down the hill they zoom past me but up the hill, a mile later I get them and I say, "Boom, see you later."

Mawi: Is there anything else you want to say?

Meb: Don't judge me by the silver medal I won in 2 hours and 11 minutes, but by the years of hard work, commitment, discipline, and perseverance to get me to achieve my dreams. It's not that one race that made Meb, there have been many races that led up to it. As an athlete I have encountered numerous injuries - five days before the marathon in Athens, I couldn't walk up or down stairs because of tendonitis. If I would have stopped or given up, I never would have accomplished my dream. So people should never give up.

Mawi: Meb, you 're an absolute inspiration and I want to thank you .. .

Lifetime Donor Wall The Foundation has announced the installation of its Lifetime Donor Recognition Wall. The wall honors all donors who have amassed a lifetime giving total of $5,000 or more to the Foundation or to their chapter's CEA through the DUEF. The wall is divided up into five societies of honor, in tribute to our Fraternity Motto and the Four Founding Principles.

As a donor's lifetime total increases his nameplate moves up a level. And , as soon as a donor qualifies, his nameplate is ordered! The wall serves many purposes in both fundraising and recognition.

In addition to the donors that it honors, the wall also stands as a tribute to one brother, whose efforts led to the founding of the DU Educational Foundation in 1949. Brother Hugh E. Nesbitt, Ohio State '14, organized the formation of the DUEF, and offered the seed money to get the organization started. He also served as the first Chairman of the DUEF. Brother Nesbitt earlier had served as President of the Fraternity.

The centerpiece of the wall features a likeness of Brother Nesbitt, along with Brother Nesbitt's appropriate quote, befitting the tone of the wall: "I believe that the more we give the more convinced we become of the satisfaction and happiness that may be secured by being a loyal booster of Delta Upsilon. "

t -t1iap er September 17 the chapter participated in the Relay for Life, to benefit the American Cancer Society. This was a tremendous boost of morale for the entire chapter and the organizers have asked DU to participate again next year. Later in the fall (October 23) the Brothers went to the Quincy Mall parking lot to live "homeless" in a cardboard box for the weekend. Proceeds went to the Salvation Army.

Houston t -Chap er The Houston Chapter has now become a dynasty, after winning their third consecutive homecoming. The previous homecomings won were: "Agent OOCoug" and "Cougar Revolutions." The theme for this year's homecoming was "Cougar Invasion." All the Brothers pulled together to overcome other organizations in competition, winning best banner, golf cart parade, spirit award and placing second in strut your stuff. They sealed the victory with a first place finish in the golf cart parade, building a 20-foot long replica of a Viking ship.

With all of this activity, they still made time to go to the day care center to spend time with the kids, painting pumpkins and playing games at the University of Houston Child Center.

Pictured are the North Dakota Chapter's new members with some of the clothing collected for their new philanthropy. Never before done as a philanthropy at the University of North Dakota, this was created by the men of DU as an efficient way for students to acquire extra closet space while at the same time give to the less fortunate. All clothing collected was donated to the Grand Forks Salvation Army for distribution to the community. Using this year's clothing drive as a trial run, DU Brothers gathered ideas for next year's collection. Possibly seeking sponsors for prizes for next year, the new annual philanthropy is sure to grow with much success.

MEMORIES OF THE 100TH CONVENTION IN 1934 By Craig S. Sowell, Houston '92 Fraternity Historian

In September of 1934, the Fraternity celebrated its 100th Anniversary with the DU Convention at the site of the Founding of the Fraternity in Williamstown , Mass. at Williams College. Now, 70 years have passed since that honored occasion that saw, among other things, a memorial service whereby a memorial was placed in front of West College (that still stands today) to mark the birthplace of Delta Upsilon. Brother Sowell recently caught up with four Brothers who served as their chapter delegates to the 1934 Convention , to get their recollections.

Henry Lawrie, Illinois '34 "I remember vividly going to the I OOth Anniversary Convention in 1934, feeling honored to be a delegate representing my Fraternity. The impression that has lasted all these years is that for me it was an enjoyable experience, interesting and inspiring. My most vivid recollection is my enjoyment of a group of Canadian Brothers. We stuck together the whole time. They were an exceptional and delightful group.AII in all, being a Delta Upsilon Brother contributed greatly to my college experience."

Walter Bachtold, Washington State '35 "September 1934, we drove from Pullman, Washington in a 1930 Buick driven by DU brother Ed Miley. We stopped at the DU houses at Chicago, Swarthmore, Pennsylvania and Rutgers along the way. We enjoyed social visits with many other delegates, and even had dates with lovely girls from Bennington College. We also had great visits with alumni board members. I attended all of the meetings, and much was made of the lOath Anniversary."

John Lynd, Syracuse '35 Brother john Lynd was the Syracuse Chapter's representative, and reported that he still has his convention credentials from that weekend! Recalling one of the central events of the weekend, Brother Lynd wrote, "Outstanding was Brother john Erskine's dedication speech at the DU memorial on the campus."

Willis Deming, Ohio State '35 "I recall representing the Ohio State Chapter at the I DOth Anniversary Convention in 1934. I was elected President of the Ohio State Chapter in the spring of 1934 and became the chapter's delegate to the Convention. Brother james Paul offered

to drive his family car from Columbus to Williamstown and back. I have a recollection of the Convention, which was based in the attractive Williamstown Inn. The meetings were devoted largely to methods for building strong chapters, the importance of encouraging strong scholarship and techniques for good chapter management. An excellent evening dance party was held in the Williams DU Chapter House. It was with some regret that we

departed from the beautiful Williamstown area and returned to Columbus. My sister now has a country home in Manchester,Vermont.When I visit her there, we sometimes drive to Williamstown to see the beautiful artwork at the Art Institute, have lunch, and drive by the chapter house. The visit brings back very pleasant memories."

Whether it is the honor to serve Delta Upsilon and represent your chapter; enjoying a road trip; socializing and meeting new DU brothers from other chapters; meeting alumni board members, hearing outstanding and energizing speakers; attending some great leadership and educational sessions, or simply making some memories, alumni and undergraduates alike can get a lot out of

attending a Leadership Institute.

In 200 I, Delta Upsilon established the Founders Medal to recognize those brothers who have given an extraordinary amount of time and inspirational service to Delta Upsilon, specifically to a particular Chapter. On October 16,2004, it was presented for the 8th time at North Dakota State's annual Founders Day Dinner:

Recipients of the Founders Medal embody the spirit of Delta Upsilon's ideals, follow the example set by DU's Founding Fathers, and exemplify the qualities and traits of a true DU man. Don Larew, Iowa State '63, is a prime example of a Founders Medal recipient.

After graduating from Iowa State, Don earned a Master's degree from the University of Iowa. In 1969, he began teaching at North Dakota State University in Fargo, North Dakota, right around the time that Delta Upsilon established a colony there. Once Don arrived on the scene, a wonderful and natural marriage began. He assumed the role as Faculty Advisor for the Chapter that chartered in May of 1970, and has remained a fi xture ever since. Brother Larew has always been there to advise, counsel and instruct the group when necessary, or simply to "be there" whenever he was needed. In 2003, the Chapter dedicated their chapter room in their chapter house in Brother Larew's honor, and even commissioned an oil portrait of him, which hangs prominently in the room.

Volunteers are a commodity; a rarity. Even more rare are those alumni that commit themselves to Delta Upsilon for eternity. Brother Larew is a shining example that membership in Delta Upsilon never ends.

Gary J. Golden, Rutgers '74, passed away November 25, 2004, in Albuquerque of heart failure as a result of a tear in his main artery. He is survived by his wife of 23 years Kathy Jo, and two sons, Eric, 18, and Greg, 15.

Gary was employed by San Juan College for the last 14 years. Prior to that he was employed by the University of New Mexico and as a result was an avid Lobo fan. Gary received the prestigious Zia Award of Excellence from UNM in 2002.As Vice President of Student Services he was responsible for making it possible for students to register, pay their bills, seek counseling, and obtain financial aid in one location.

Gary also implemented the student online registration system, which allowed students to access college services from wherever there was a computer. Gary's legacy is his belief in students. He lived to remove barriers to their success.

He was the first administrator to receive the San Juan College Sun Award given by a fellow employee to honor his spirit and enthusiasm and for going above and beyond what is expected.

Gary was a leader in many ways. He led with strength mixed with a healthy sense of humor. He did not let his ego get in the way of doing the right thing for the college and its students. When there was chaos, Gary remained unflustered and level headed. He was truly a trusted voice of reason. "He was the heart of our institution," said San Juan College President Carol Spencer.

While his job was his passion, his love was his family. It was the love of family that made him so successful in his career. He treated his San Juan College family, and each student with whom he came into contact with, as though they were a part of his family.

Gary was extremely proud of his two sons and was an active, encouraging and loving part of their lives. Through the years he coached them in soccer, basketball and baseball.

He is survived by two brothers, Harold and Linda Golden and David and Sibel Golden; and two sisters,June and Keith Powers and Joyce and Ken Proulx. Gary had numerous nieces and nephews.

Gary was a member and past president of the Farmington Rotary Club, President of the University of New Mexico Alumni Club, President of the International Alumni Association, President of the Delta Upsilon Fraternity, a member of the San Juan Regional Medical Center Board, and the Convention and Visitors Bureau Board. He was an active volunteer with United Way and Connie Mack.

Gary was a faithful member of the Catholic Church and served as a crossing guard for Youth Catholic Education classes. Gary's faith was an important part of his life.
