We are encouraging other regional groups of Brothers to organize their own mid winter banquets - Chicago is one this winter for sure. 6-8 people makes a worthwhile evening.

Jeff Serfass passed along the sad news that Denny Hubel, '69 passed away on September 16, 2019. Denny was a distinguished US Magistrate judge for many years in Oregon and Cornell ROTC/Engineering grad. Despite his many medical complications at the time, Denny and his wife made the cross-country trip to Ithaca this past June for the Class of 69 reunion and house visit. The strength of fraternal brotherhood and friendships is strong, and RIP Denny.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Dennis J. Hubel died Monday at his home in Wilsonville after several years of battling myeloma cancer, heart disease, and pulmonary problems.

The 2019 edition of the Beta Theta Bulletin has gone to press - look for it in the mail. This one is a keeper! Eight pages of full color news, a four page supplement with a full tribute to the undefeated, NCAA champion 1970 Cornell Hockey team and the role ATOs played on the team.

EVERYONE gets the Bulletin - even if you don't pay dues, and never have, and never will. We mail out 900 copies, so the only requirement is we have your current mailing address on file. Check atocornell.org and you can verify or update. You don't want to miss this Bulletin!
