69 YEARS FLASHBACK...1946 Michigan Alpha Membership Paddle
During the 2014 Homecoming Open House, Dr. Loyal Jodar '49 donated his paddle signed by the membership of Michigan Alpha in 1946. His paddle is now on display with other memorabilia in the Trophy Room of the chapter house.
If you have old pictures of the chapter house or active members back in the day, please share copies of them with the Alumni Association. We are planning to publish an all-time membership directory in conjunction with the 150th anniversary that will include a photo history of Michigan Alpha.
In 2008, the Alumni Association started the Heritage Project to collect historic photos, old Sword & Shield newsletters, memorabilia and written memories that help to tell the story of Michigan Alpha's rich history on campus.
The Alumni Association wishes to thank Dr. Loyal Jodar '49, Henry Heil, Jr. '53, John Jenks '53, Thomas Mericle '54, Charlie Green '58, Dave Hood '63, Mike Harmon '63, Dr. Anthony Petrilli '63 and Pat Hayden '66 for their donations to the Heritage Project during the past year.
If you wish to contribute items to this effort, please contact the Alumni Association at pdtumich@gmail.com.
