Chapter Welcomes Class of ’28

Sigma Chi Delta Delta Pledge Class of 2028

Introducing the Class of 2028

Thirty new brothers entered the ranks of Sigma Chi on November 8 following the completion of their 5-week pledge program led by Magister Kevin McCarthy ’25.  Twenty members of this class hail from Indiana from Goshen to Charleston.  Four are from California, two from Tennessee, and one each from Wisconsin, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts.

This year’s Preparation for Brotherhood pledgeship was enhanced by weekly discussions with different alumni.  Alumni talks expanded on the different Sigma Chi values that are discussed during pledgeship. Alumni participants were Brian Griffiths ’95, Dave Woodruff ’99, Gunter Haines ’95, Bryce Brumm ’96 and Phil Steele ’77.

This year’s Initiation ceremony was extremely well done.  All the participants were well prepared. Credit goes to Kustos Krue Nagel ’27, Magister Kevin McCarthy ’25 and Consul Mitchell Rittman ’26 for coordinating all aspects of Initiation.

Congratulations to you all! Welcome to a wonderful historic chapter of Delta Delta. May you embrace these years and enjoy the beginning of some lifelong brotherhood and friendships as we, the class of 69, have. Praying that the chapter continues to rebuild as is evident by all you fine young men. In hoc, Bo Bockel.

Great to see a couple of “boys” from Tennessee. They will add some gusto to the group.
For the whole group == ABSORB == the whole Purdue and Delta Delta experience.
Don’t forget to keep your parents in the loop. Ron Karns ’64 Crossville, TN
