O
klahoma Alpha has provided Mike
Daniel '85 with many valuable lessons
and memories, and for that he is grateful.
"Over the years an abundance of unforgettable
memories were made at Oklahoma Alpha that
I still cherish today. I feel a sense of pride
whenever I hear or read about a brother doing
well in life, or I see how brothers will rally
around when one of us is in need."
Mike is thankful not only for the brothers he
is still close with today, but for Oklahoma
Alpha's role in preparing him for living
and working in a diverse world. "One
of the best lessons I learned was how to
become a contributing member of a dynamic
group of young men: learning how to get
along with and adapt to each other while
attempting to make a positive impact for the
betterment of the group and not a personal
gain. The life lessons and many opportunities
that SigEp afforded me made a positive
impact on my graduate studies and on my
career in general." These lessons helped
Mike build a successful legal career, most
recently as vice president-general counsel of
Samson Resources Corporation and Samson
Investment Company where he worked for
22 years.
As many of Mike's brothers may recall,
he is never short on advice and has some
words of wisdom for today's undergraduates.
"Get involved and make memories. Get to
know and learn as much as you can from
all the brothers, embrace the diversity and
uniqueness of each member/pledge, and stay
in touch with brothers after graduation, which
I wish I had done a better job of."
Mike has contributed to the Pride in Our
Past, Ensuring Our Future campaign in
hopes that it will allow current and future
active members stay competitive at OSU. "I
can only hope that the campaign is a success
and the chapter gets the new house they so
much deserve. I've seen that a lot of the
other fraternities at OSU have rebuilt or made
significant improvements to their houses. A
new house is critical to staying competitive."
In addition, Mike's memories of Oklahoma
Alpha spurred him to donate. "It might be
hard to explain but positive, happy memories
really are priceless, especially when the
pressures of life seem unbearable. So what
better way is there to recognize the value of
those memories?"
Recently retired, Mike stays busy with
consulting work on a limited basis and enjoys
"life on a full-time basis." He has been
married to his wife, Laura, for almost 24
years and they have two sons, Joseph (22), a
Lambda Chi at the University of Tulsa, and
Woody (18), a freshman at OSU. Mike enjoys
traveling and fishing. Reach out to Mike via
