The Sig Scroll p. 2 F or many of us, our years in college provided some of our most cherished memories, experiences, and friendships. Sigma Chi provided just that and so much more for Greg Massey '87. "My pledge brother, Kevin Cunningham '86, inspired me to join Gamma Delta," he says. "At the time, little did I know that becoming a member of the Fraternity would be one of the most important decisions I would ever make. Gamma Delta was my home away from home during some of the most transformative years of my life and the men in the Chapter made me feel like I truly belonged. I wouldn't be where I am today without Gamma Delta." Greg wasted no time getting involved in Gamma Delta, and took advantage of opportunities that helped him excel both in the Fraternity and on campus. "I gained invaluable relationship, academic, and leadership experience in Gamma Delta that made a profound impact on my personal and professional development," he says. "Being surrounded by brothers such as Kyle Kennedy '86 and Jim Goldsworthy '86 brought out the best in me and truly paved the way for my success both in college and even years later after graduating." As an alumnus, Greg's unwavering commitment to Gamma Delta remains intact and he stays connected with both Kyle and Jim to this day. Having served as the House Corporation treasurer for several years, Greg has been a driving force in the Chapter's continued excellence at OSU. "Over the years, I've come to realize how important alumni involvement is to the future of Gamma Delta. As alumni, we have as much or more to learn from our undergraduate brothers as they have to Cowboys Club ($250 to $499) Dr. Richard L.
