McCarty '92 (405) 310-3210 cmccarty@camccartyconstruction.com o n behalf of the Gamma Phi Chapter, it is my pleasure to express our full support of Honoring Our Traditions, Providing for the Future campaign. As a chapter we have fully embraced the campaign by pledging more than $250,000 to this historic project. To date, we have paid more than $70,000 toward this commitment. We are committed to what the future holds for Gamma Phi and take great pride in our history and the reputation our alumni have created for us to uphold. The plan for 800 Chautauqua will not only provide a safer environment for our members, but will also allow us to continue the tradition of Gamma Phi as the premier fraternity at Oklahoma. When we heard about this project, the chapter decided to do its part. We know that raising funds to renovate the house hasn't been, nor will it be, easy. We are not expecting our alumni to fund this campaign alone. It is our hope the gift we made will show that it is going to take all of us to come together to reach the goal. We are committed to this campaign and hope our alumni will be as well. We look forward to watching the joint effort of alumni and active brothers result in something we can all be proud of. One of the best things about being a member of Beta Theta Pi at Oklahoma is sharing such a similar experience with other Betas, past and present. Personally, Beta has done more for me than I could have ever imagined. I came to the University of Oklahoma from Houston, Texas. I knew one person coming into college and, like many others, had no idea what I wanted to do. I was fortunate enough to receive a bid to join this chapter, and it has changed my life in incredible ways. I instantly felt at home and made many friends I would soon call my brothers. The pledge program and culture of the chapter contributed significantly to attaining a high GPA—something I know I would not have been able to do on my own. After my freshman year, I spoke with some of the older members who helped me decide on a major. Soon after, I was given the opportunity to intern in that field, simply because of the Beta connection with an alumnus. Joining Beta Theta Pi almost four years ago has given me the ability to grow socially, academically, and professionally. As the last group of active members to live in the current house, we would like to thank all of the generous alumni for giving their time and financial resources toward the restoration and expansion of our beloved house. We have all worked hard to build and maintain the tradition and reputation of Beta Theta Pi at Oklahoma. We hope that our alumni will join us in making an investment in something that means so much to so many. Yours in _kai_, Mark Stoltz '14 Chapter President mtstoltz@ou.edu / (281) 638-1724 undergraduates Commit $250,000 to Campaign "They mean something more than banquets and a good time; they mean fellowship and friendship. They bind heart to heart, and every one of our numbers is a brother to all of the rest. We ask not whether he be from Texas or Tennessee, from New Jersey or New Hampshire, it is enough that he is a Beta Theta Pi." – John Brewer, Justice, United States Supreme Court, 1896
