Why did you join Chi Phi?: I joined Chi Phi in Fall 2008; I was attracted to its status as the oldest national social fraternity, I got along great with the brothers during rush and loved my time around the house.

Went to the UM Nebraska game this past weekend and with 111,000 plus fans sitting one row in front of me was Mike Cramer. Good to connect with a brother after so many years.
