5. NOTES FROM THE EDITOR
Today’s Alpha Delta normally has a part time or a full time job. He
rarely has extra money and is frequently late with his rent money. He
will probably leave Washburn with a degree and a large student loan.
In 1959, students earned about $1.00 to $1.25 per hour. Tuition was
around $12.00 per hour, non resident fee for Alpha Delta was $19.00 per Lloyd Fleming
month and $75.00 per month to live in the house. This included three meals Monday –
Friday and one meal on Sunday.
In 2009, students earn about $7.00 to $8.00 per hour, tuition is $197.00 per credit hour
for Kansas residents, in town fee for Alpha Delta is $85.00 per month and the resident
fee is $375.00 per month and includes one meal a week, the formal Monday Night Din-
ner. Also included are Cable TV and Internet Connections in each room a comfortable
Gathering Room with a fifty – five inch flat screen TV. His expense includes cell phone,
laptop computer, and auto insurance over $100 per month and cologne at $70.00 for 2.5
ounces.

8. Greetings fellow Alpha Delts!
Hopefully this message finds everyone well.
On behalf of Alpha Delta’s Active Chapter I would like to give a
warm and hearty hello and hope that everyone has had great start to
the 2009 year. First off, I’ll begin by introducing myself for those
who don’t know who I am, and are thinking, “Who the heck is E-
mailing me”. My name is Victor Elazegui Jr. and I am the current Victor Elazegui
president of the chapter. This is my fourth year at Washburn Uni-
versity as well as my fourth year in the fraternity. I’m originally from Olathe, Kansas
and decided to come to Washburn University due to their well-recognized Criminal Jus-
tice program. My first year at Washburn, I was introduced to the fraternity and was wel-
comed by great friends who now I consider my Brothers. My passion for the success of
this fraternity is as high as it was since when I first formally pledged in the fall of 2005.
Unfortunately, Alpha Delta, as well as many other Greek organizations, is experiencing
rough times and less involvement in the Greek community. As many of you know, Alpha
Delta is currently in a rebuilding process. Numbers are low, but the foundation of this
brotherhood is strong and willing. This strong foundation will be imperative in the re-
building of this Fraternity. Recruitment will be a big part of this semester’s plans and we
have begun planning already. This past Sunday (February 22) a recruitment committee
consisting of current Alpha Delta brothers (me being one of them) met to plan and pre-
pare events to help bring potential new brothers to the fraternity.
At this meeting, we planned our first event of the semester. Here are the details:
1st Annual
Alpha Delta House
Hold’Em Tournament
On Friday, March 27, 2009, at 5:00 PM Alpha Delta will be holding a Texas Hold’Em
poker tournament, as its first recruitment event for the spring 2009 semester. Planning
for this event has already gone into effect. For more details regarding this recruitment
event, you are encouraged to contact Shaun Small (Recruitment Chair), Jonathon Rami-
rez (Treasurer), or myself (contact info will be provided below).
The Active Chapter invites all alumni to attend this recruitment event! Also, if anyone
would like to take part, volunteer, or even contribute towards this event you are more
than welcome to. The recruitment committee currently has set a budget for this event but
8
9. contributions or donations would be greatly appreciated by Active Chapter. We
currently need assistance with the following items:
Chairs
Round (poker) tables
Poker table tops
Poker Chips
Playing Cards
Decorations
Dealers
Prize ideas
Raffle Prizes!!
SUGGESTIONS!!
Any donation of any kind would be appreciated, and thank you all in advance. If
this event is successful (which were optimistic that it will be!) we plan on making
this event an annual recruitment event. I will be compiling a promotional flyer ad-
vertising our event, and will be emailing everyone a copy.
We understand that recruitment is key to the survival of Alpha Delta’s future. Ac-
tive Chapter is taking this matter seriously and planning accordingly. Once again,
thank you for your help and suggestions. If anyone has any questions or com-
ments, please feel free to contact me or drop by the house
Thank you!

11. WHAT IS THE LIFE OF A HOUSEMOTHER LIKE?
Moira Brouddus, Housemother
It's letting someone into their room at 3 a.m. because they for-
got their room key.
It's smiling when remembering the time 2 of our young men
tried to catch a bat (that had flown in an open door) with a fry-
ing pan and a tennis racket.
It is keeping quiet when someone tells a joke that no house- Mother Brouddus
mother should understand.
It's smelling pizza cooking at 2 a.m. and hoping they do their cleanup.
It's being awakened at 12:30 a.m. and asked to show someone how to cook a ham-
burger.
It's walking into the kitchen and discovering nobody did their duties.
It's watching a whole movie with a young man that was homesick, this was his
Mom's favorite movie!!
It's being told I have XXXXX because I picked up a half dead mouse and got rid of
it.
It's watching 8 dz. cookies eaten in record time-----most of them still warm.
It's being so proud when you see them in their cap and gown.
It's being told "you're such a Mom" and knowing it was meant as a compliment.
It's watching the dedication and generosity of the Alpha Delta Alumni. Our young
men are blessed with all the extra support that is available to them.
