n the spirit of showcasing the lifelong value our Fraternity
experience has provided brothers for the past hundred
years, we've compiled some photos from recent connections
spurred by alumni desires to reconnect well beyond
graduation. Have you recently met up with fellow Iowa Xi
brothers? Whether it was the first time in a long while or
the first time this year, we'd love to hear about it! Send the
details and pictures to ethanwagner515@gmail.com with
"PKT Iowa Meetups" in the subject line and we might share
them in a future XICLONE!
