Transcript from "Campus Life"

What was life like on campus? I know social life you were in a fraternity.

Well, I was a Lambda Chi because they paid for me to be one. I didn’t have the money to join the fraternity back then. There was a gentleman out of Alabama. Oh, I forget his name. He was a big Lambda Chi man and says that we want you in our fraternity, and we are going to take care of all the expenses. I said, “Well it is a good thing, because I haven’t got the money. I only have $10 a month” And that is the only way I got into the fraternity, because they paid for it.
