Kappa Delta Rho
celebrates 60 years
Members of Lycoming’s Kappa
Delta Rho Psi chapter held a 60th
anniversary party at 33 East during
Alumni Weekend in May. More than a
dozen alumni attended the event,
which also featured a presentation to
President James and Emily Douthat.
Jim Scott ’70 presented the Douthats
with yellow KDR T-shirts and gave
President Douthat a one-of-a-kind
engraved commemorative glass. In a
surprise move, Emily was named a
“KDR Sweetheart” and was serenaded
by Wade Pugh ’67.
In return, Douthat gave the group a
citation, honoring them for their years
of service and dedication to the college.
A scrapbook from the first year –
1953 – was available for attendees
to browse through, along with other
items from the College Archives
and brought by members, including
some memorabilia donated by Dave
Rodriguez ’53, one of the chapter’s
founders.
During the event, Daniel Bennett ’14
was recognized as the first recipient of
the KDR Psi chapter scholarship.
