Experiencing Brotherhood Before Coming to College
Alex Buckley ’18 has personally experienced fraternal bonds long before he ever joined a fraternity.
Since the age of 14, Alex has been serving as a volunteer firefighter with his hometown department. As a kid, he would run down to the fire station on his street every time he heard the sirens go off, just to watch the trucks in action. It was those moments that developed a spirit in Alex of wanting to join something larger than himself.
“Just like LXA, our fire department is a very fraternal organization and the bond I have with them is as strong as the bond as I have with my fellow Zetas,” he said.

More than Great Memories: LXA Led Rob Nelson ’69 to His Wife and Longtime Friends
Rob Nelson ’69 says that when he receives our Zeta Zephyr newsletters, it still takes him right back to how tight-knit the chapter was when he was there in the ’60s.
“We had a rockin’ chapter at ZZ, with band parties and kegs of beer,” he says. “We also boasted to potential pledges that we had the best blue book file at PSU!”
Rob’s favorite memory from those days, though, would have to be recruiting Duane Doty ’44 as High Pi.

Lambda Chi Nurtures Christian Values
While we all had a similar experience at Zeta Zeta, Lambda Chi has given us each unique memories and takeaways from our time in the fraternity.
For Benjamin Mathews ’15, the biggest thing he gained from his time at Lambda Chi was “a deeper understanding of and appreciation for my Christian upbringing.”
