If you have visited the new Delta Chi Chapter House, you’ve experienced firsthand the largest and best fraternity house on the Michigan campus with over 100 active brothers. Now, a group of loyal brothers lead by Al Knaus, Keith Hellems, Frank Morrey and Jim Fuger are going to make the house our Delta Chi home. Our project is to display composites from every year to build the Wall of History and Heritage.
The composite restoration project will professionally mount original composites (14”W X 11”H) on the walls of the first floor (running from the dining room to the first floor suite). This Wall of History and Heritage will truly mark our Chapter’s return to campus, and add our long U of M history to the Chapter House.
The project is underway; however, we need your help to make it a success. Brother Jim Fuger ‘82 has generously put up $1,000 as a matching gift to help raise funds to complete this effort. For every dollar you donate, brother Fuger will match your gift! Please make your donation today by sending a check payable to Michigan Delta Chi to Alumni Corporation Treasurer John Levinson at 8770 Oak Beach Drive, Commerce Township, MI 48382. We need your help to bring back Michigan Delta Chi history to the Chapter House!
Just as importantly what we need for this project to succeed is composites from your active time in Delta Chi. Are you willing to share it for this restoration project? If so, please contact brother Keith Hellems at [email protected], or Alan Knaus at [email protected]. There are many years we are missing and would really like to use originals rather than digitized reproductions for the wall. Please consider both the donation of your composite and a cash donation to help frame it and make the project a success. You will receive recognition with your name as the donor of the composite.
Such an impressive display of our chapter’s history adorning 20 or 30 feet of wall with framed composites, complete with all the brother’s names down through history will be impressive indeed. It will be a reminder to the present actives of the significance of one of the older chapters on the Michigan campus.
Thanks you from the alumni association and the brothers serving on the Alumni Relations Team
