Alpha Nu's
Letter
Our success in getting to this point is in large
part due to the daily efforts of Steve Babb,
Illinois '87 (right), our first-ever Alpha Nu
executive director. His two boys, Tom Babb '19
and Adam Babb '21, both lived all four years at
Usher Mansion and gave us all the opportunity
to get to know Steve and the rest of his family.
His dedication to Beta, and in particular his
newfound love of and loyalty to Alpha Nu, made
him the perfect choice for executive director.
Working closely with the advisory team, Steve is
focusing on mentoring the guys, working with the KU administration
and Beta National, navigating the most recent challenges and obstacles
created by the pandemic, and working to keep Alpha Nu above the fray
that comes with Greek life in general being under a microscope.
Staying ahead of these things is no small task, but with Steve's
leadership, we are confident that Alpha Nu will continue to set a positive
example at KU and across the nation of what a fraternity founded on
solid principles can mean to the lives of those who experience it. Please
help us welcome Steve. We are glad to have him on board!
Yours in _kai_,
Al Simmons '82
