Chapter Eternal – Senator Richard Lugar
Alpha Eta Remembers one of its most distinguished brothers
Senator Richard Lugar was a true American Patriot. Serving the state of Indiana in the United States Senate for 36 years, Lugar made his mark on policies foreign and domestic, bringing about a more peaceful world. His spectacular career and erudite style was catalyzed by his education at Denison University where he was a member of the Alpha Eta Chapter of Beta Theta Pi. The future Senator obtained a Rhodes scholarship that took him to Oxford University’s Pembroke College. After obtaining two bachelor’s degrees and a masters, he was a lieutenant in the Navy. His first major run for office saw him elected as Mayor of his hometown of Indianapolis in 1967, beginning a career in service of the public that would span generations.

ANNUAL FUND UPDATE – A CALL TO ACTION
Help Us Make the 2018-19 Giving Year Strong!
Our 2018-19 giving year, which began on July 1, 2018, is half over with $8,030.00 collected from 48 brothers. We want to thank those 48 brothers (you can find them under the Honor Roll tab on our website) who have already made a contribution to Alpha Eta so far this giving year!
Our 2018-19 giving year goal was for $12,000. Last year only 69 out of 962 alumni chose to make a voluntary gift. We have not met our goal — we still need your help. Who will be next brother to join our 2018-19 Honor Roll?
Alpha Eta – A Bond Unbroken
Thoughts on Why We Give
“When I meet a brother, unseen or without contact over many years, the connection is still felt.”
Have you ever asked yourself why you give-if you give, that is? If the statisticians are right, only one brother in ten is likely to give back regularly once they put on their cap and gown.
There are lots of good reasons to give, of course. Do you believe in affording the next generation of young men the same experience you had with Alpha Eta? Maybe something good happened to you just by being together in that house, sharing those experiences that helped make you who you are now.
Onward and Upward
Remember your spring graduation?
With the return of spring also comes that rite of passage, graduation. We’ve all been there. It’s a time for looking forward, but also a time for looking back over our life-changing college years and the many influences that shaped us, including our fraternity experience.
It’s March Madness!
It’s March Madness!
We know you have stories to tell, so what are you waiting for?
Many of the fondest memories of our college days were following sporting events with our fraternity brothers.

Giving is just a Click Away
Helping Our Brothers to Donate Online
Use of the Web has become an everyday fact of life for most of us. Sometimes we aren’t even aware of how dependent we are on it, until something goes wrong. We use it to correspond, to pay bills, make purchases and organize our daily lives. Organizations, from global corporations to the smallest start-up, depend on the internet to reach their clients and advance their objectives.
This Way, Brother
Mentoring is one of the best ways to give back
Rocky had his trainer Mick, Luke Skywalker had Obi-Wan and the Karate Kid had Mr. Miyagi. When starting out, we all need help – a guide, a coach, a teacher, a mentor to help us avoid the pitfalls and navigate our way to success. Mentorship and networking have long been recognized as important aspects of the collegiate and fraternity experience.
