Summer Renovations Complete
Excitement Builds as We Continue to Renovate Without Taking on Debt
W
e are excited to announce the completion of many renovation
projects from this summer. After the house corporation board
approved the renovations, we got right to work. Funding for the shelter
projects comes from the approximately $50,000 per year the HCB
diligently sets aside, set aside from rent revenue. None of these projects
were funded from campaign donations.

• Kitchen
o New ceiling, counters and sink.
• Basketball court
o New 72" basketball hoop.

FUTURE PROJECTS

We have zero debt and will not use any campaign money for anything
other than an addition to break bread as brothers. This was the wish of
John Fisher '90 and I share that vision.
Thank you, brothers, for your ongoing support of Delta Tau Delta
Fraternity at Ball State University.
Fraternally,
Jeff Hern '92
