"I remember the week we went through Initiation. The Ritual was very, very
meaningful to me. It was a very difficult period, needless to say, but I must
say in retrospect, [that] it's held its value and its meaning and the
historical perspective that it gives you. I think the Ritual and the fraternity
mystics, and just the sense of history that goes back with Sigma Chi, are
things that help make those bonds so strong."
"I made some lasting friendships out of my association in college. There is always a bond with the fellows you were there with. The friendships I made in college with Sigs--a lot of them have lasted until this day--are a very valuable thing for me in my line of work because nowadays half the people who want to meet me have some kind of business angle, so I value my old friends quite a bit. The Fraternity has meant an awful lot to me."
