Why Support KDR: In the words of alumni
“Living in the fraternity with 40-plus other members developed my abilities to get along with others. I made lifelong friends.”
— Dewey Walker ’53
“The fraternity gave me the ability to interact with people in business and social environments.”
— Tom Fuchs ’66
“The most enduring aspects of my membership to KDR are the many close friendships that I carry on today. And while we probably didn’t appreciate it at the time, our active participation in fraternity life helped us develop some basic skills in areas such as sales and marketing, time management, team building, conflict resolution, goal orientation and project management—these have carried over into our professional and personal lives.”
— Jack Dandrea ’85
“Living in a dorm, you just don’t have the sense of family and joining together that you have living in a house like KDR. You get to know and appreciate people on a different level.”
— Don Mains ’77
“KDR influenced my life by putting me in leadership roles.”
— Dean Bordner ’85
“Even though we are all different in many ways, we share the same common bond that will always link us no matter where we go or how old we get – the link of KDR Zeta. In addition, at some point you will want someone you care about (a little brother, a nephew, a cousin, or even your own child) to walk through the front door and have the same opportunity and experience you had while at KDR.”
— Rick Baloh ’91
