Kettering Delts Turn 60!

As the GMT Chair I’ve had the opportunity to chat with several GMI Delts, and it was my great pleasure to recently speak with one of our first presiding officers, Mr. Larry V. Hough. Larry joined Gamma Mu Tau Fraternity in 1960. Sometime after GMI became an accredited engineering university, the local fraternity started considering joining a national fraternity. A search began for a fraternity that most closely matched the values and personality of Gamma Mu Tau. In the end … Read More

Delt Shelter Strategy Update

In a previous note I mentioned our primary direction is to remodel the shelter as opposed to moving. This is still our direction. However there have been some recent developments. Kettering is getting more serious about their “Greek Village” concept, and other fraternities on Dupont street are seriously considering it. Trustee Jaffke and I recently met with Kettering administration, and we are now closely connected with the Phi Delts and FIJI house corps. This is an important decision, and we … Read More
