Box 442100 Lawrence, KS 66044-2100 Address Service Requested Onward and Upward (Continued from page 3) BETA-GAMMA GAB H H H H H H H H H H Call for Alumni Mentors My observation is we need more interaction with the local alumni who would be willing to serve as mentors, which I am calling the "Big- gest Brother" program. ey will meet at a minimum of once a semester with the Chap- ter to talk about fraternity and professional life. It will expose them to what it means to be a part of a Brotherhood with deeps roots at the national level, within the community, and on campus. Somehow, they are not getting that aspect of fraternity life. Not a fault of the men of Beta-Gamma, but rather the environ- ment currently at the university. If you think you can give a few hours a semester, please let me know as I want to have the program up and operating as soon as possible.
