T
o even consider recruiting prospective members in August 2025,
we must plan now.
The MOU requires that a plan outlining an intent to return be
submitted to KU no less than six months prior to the proposed return
date. Presumably, this will be a collaborative effort between KU, the
Fraternity, and local alumni.
In addition, a Chapter Advisory Board must be reconstituted,
consisting of at least four local alumni who have no connection to
the membership when the charter was withdrawn in August 2022.
Training for the CAB will be provided by Fraternity staff.
Locally trained alumni, in conjunction with the Fraternity staff, will need
to assist with the recruitment process prior to recruiting new members as
well as during the first two years after the chapter is recognized.
Lastly, most of the current members of House Corporation all came of
age before the internet was "invented" and would welcome volunteers
who don't know a world without the internet.
If you have an interest in volunteering for any of these, or possibly
other opportunities, please contact B. Scott Tschudy '80 at
bstschudy@martinpringle.com, Jim Handy '81 at jimhandy@
reecenichols.com, or Larry Winter '77 at kuedgar@yahoo.com.

Brothers gather for the 2021 Ben Runkle Golf Tournament.
T
he 2022 Ben Runkle Golf Tournament was held
on August 27, 2022, at Iron Horse Golf Club. The
tournament benefits the Scholarship Fund of the Alpha Xi
Educational Foundation.
Despite the chapter losing its charter less than a month before
the tournament, the Ben Runkle Golf Committee decided to
move forward with the event. Over 110 golfers participated,
which created a great environment for fellowship and
discussion around plans for the chapter moving forward.
