Why did you join SAE PSU?
I didn't arrive at the main campus until I was a junior, after two years at the Middletown (Brandywine) campus. I roomed with a high school buddy, Marty Byczek, in Shunk Hall. But I disliked dorm life, especially after my roommate received a bid from SAE. I began to see him less and less, as he was attending parties and functions at the house several nights a week and on weekends. Loneliness encroached more and more. But thanks to Marty, despite my having long hair and a beard, I was invited to dinner (I remember Ed Foley picking me up in the parking lot) and a few parties at the house. After a few weeks, I was given the “blackball” treatment and then offered a bid by Joe Novello, Fred Fellmeth, Glen Holtzer, Geoff Osborne, and Mike Miller.
