Quite an accomplishment, especially for someone who didn’t attend the Naval Academy. Academy grads usually shoot to the top of any list. Maybe my nephew will be part of his defensive screen. He was just assigned to take command of a new missle destroyer, the USS Truxton.

I say Admiral Alexander is “young” but he is older than me. John was a real good guy back at the lodge…
Outstanding
Well done Capt. Alexander. That is badass, even for a Sigma Chi.

As soon as I read Student Body Vice President I knew he was Sigma Chi
Sigma Chi held all the student government posts. Congratulations Capt Alexander & once again I’m sorry about driving over those trees in front of the Sigma Chi lodge. I hope the replacement trees the Lubbock DA made me buy you guys fixed you up.

I don't remember hitting a statue
But it was dark that night & there was beer involved. So there may have been additional collateral damage.

Appears you just solved the question of why the fraternities moved to greek circle. And with that, you get the day off! Well done, sir.

Our lodge had a rooftop deck & was surrounded by 5 sorority houses
Sorority rush week there would be an army of us on the roof with coolers of beer enjoying the spectacular view. Busloads of new talent being paraded before us. Heaven.
