Brothers,It has been a tremen-

dously successful semester and the chapter has accom-plished many goals. Having said that, there will always be room for us to grow and im-prove as a house.

Th is semester has been a learning experience for both me and the other members of the Executive Board, and we look forward to using our new knowledge to further improve the house.

I would fi rst like to con-gratulate the nine newly ini-tiated members of the Beta class this semester and look forward to their future con-tributions. I also would like to thank all the brothers for completing some signifi cant accomplishments.

We just had our fi rst phi-lanthropy in at least 10 years, the Phi Gam Beach Jam, which raised over $900 and more than 600 children’s books for the USO. We com-pleted two major commu-nity service projects helping with both Devils in Disguise as well as Fiji Fills the Flash. We also had a fantastic Pig Dinner where we saw more graduate brothers than ever

in recent memory attend! While this last semester

was extremely productive, we have a lot to look for-ward to in the fall. We are al-ready planning several major events, including a number of community service proj-ects, a brotherhood retreat and, of course, FOTM.

With so much to look for-ward to in the future, I would like to give a massive thanks to the graduating brothers that have helped turn the house into what it is today

and I wish them success in all of their future endeavors.

Th e chapter’s future is extremely bright and I look forward to the challenges that will be presented this se-mester. I hope you share my enthusiasm!

Fraternally,

Tyler Bradshaw ’14Perge!

SIX DECADES

1990s

Construction owner brings persistence to company

Jody Watkins ’91, owner of San Diego, Calif.-based Watkins Landmark Construction, poses in front of construction equipment. Watkins said Fiji has impacted many parts of his life, from attending Islander with the woman who would later be his wife to how he conducts meetings for his business.

By James Fulgenzi ’16

The weekend afTer last fall’s Fiji on the

Mountain event, graduate brother Jody Watkins ’91 was in town to see the Sun Devils play in their home stadium. When leaving the game, he pointed in the direction of the ash on the mountain and told his children, “I did that once.”

Reminiscing on his under-graduate days in Alpha Sigma,

Watkins said he is mighty proud about many of the chapter’s accomplishments.

During the 1990 spring se-mester, the chapter had the highest GPA of all fraternities on campus and finished first in the campus-wide blood drive for the 26th straight semester. Watkins said he and his pledge brothers helped push Fiji back to the top on campus.

See WATKINS, page 7 Watkins and his wife and children at an ASU football game last fall.


2010s

Recent graduate eliminated debt as treasurer

Steven Tripoli ’12 chases his dog Fletcher around the Fiji Complex pool in December. Tripoli for works an energy-use consulting firm in New York.

Steven Tripoli ’12 of Stor-mville, N.Y. graduated in De-cember.

What do you do for a living?

I work for ITCSN where we go into large corporations and make more efficient automatic energy management systems.

Why did you rush Fiji?My roommate convinced

me to rush, and on bid day we both decided to go Fiji to-gether. Sadly, he didn’t make it through the pledge process to initiation.

What are some of favorite memories from your col-lege days?

I really enjoyed living at the Fiji house for my senior year. That was a great experience in itself. Before living there, I enjoyed putting on Fiji on the Mountain as a pledge in 2011.

Also being on the Executive Board as treasurer.

Do you still keep in con-tact with other Fijis?

Yes. Being one of the first to graduate, I still keep in con-tact with most of my pledge class and a lot of the under-grads.

How did your experience with Fiji impact you after college?

I keep persistence in the back of my head. I need to give it my all to get what I want in life because nothing is handed to me. It also gave me so many memories.

What’s one piece of ad-vice you would give the undergrads of the chap-ter?

You should take everything lightly and enjoy it while it lasts because you only get it

once in a life.

Where would you like to see this house in the future?

I would definitely like to still have the house around, to continue to be a positive in-fluence on the community, to convince ASU that Greek life is beneficial to campus and maybe get an official chapter house. I like the number we are at now and wouldn’t like

to see more than 120 broth-ers, because then you lose the family feeling.

How did being on the Executive Board change your views and impact you?

Being on Exec. made me the man I am today. It taught me how to set goals and achieve them and to rise to the challenge. It took a lot of effort to please 80 college boys and even more to try and col-lect money from them.

Also, learning how to talk to adults and please the grad-uate brothers was a challenge that prepared me for the real world. I would do it again if I had the choice, even though it was a lot harder to do than to sit and talk about. I took plea-sure in clearing $15,000 of debt that the chapter had.

Matt Hum ’07 is both a Sun Devil and a Wildcat after at-tending law school at the Uni-versity of Arizona after gradu-ation from ASU.

Where did you grow up?Chandler-Gilbert, Ariz.

Growing up in Gilbert and watching it develop carried me to go to ASU, a more cha-otic environment. Watching your hometown develop defi-nitely prepares you for life ex-perience in college.

What do you do for a liv-ing?

I’m an attorney. I solo prac-tice. I work a lot on the week-ends. I’ve become very dedi-cated. I do go out, I do have some fun. But it’s hard to be a weekend warrior when you have to treat Saturdays like a Monday. If you want to re-ally make an impact on your career, you sometimes need to put your social life on the back burner.

What are your plans for the future?

I would like to grow my firm, hire more attorneys and be well respected in civil liti-gations, specifically business litigations.

Attorneys do make good money, but when you get down to it, the money is go-ing to come, especially when you take an extra three years of school.

When you have integrity and you work hard, the mon-ey is going to come as well. I think it’s important to have integrity, especially in the field of law, where the profession is centered on integrity itself.

What made you rush Fiji? When I first rushed, it was

a different time. The chapter at the time was going through a struggle, but what really stood out to me was the brother-hood and the quality of the brothers in the house, and that what was most important

to me in a fraternity.

What are some of your favorite memories from your college days?

My favorite memories were when the house was down to literally like five guys, and we became best friends. They are the core of my friendships to this day. It was definitely a unique experience.

Do you still keep in con-tact with many Fijis?

Those five guys that I spent most of my college days with. I still talk to those guys all the time.

How did your Fiji experi-ence impact you after college?

I would say my Fiji expe-rience made me more social and socially capable. When I first went to college, I was a pretty shy kid.

I was more reserved, and being in Fiji definitely

brought out my confidence and personality and gave me the courage to tackle life’s challenges.

If you had one piece of advice for undergraduate brothers, what would it be?

Enjoy your time in college, but don’t waste your time in college. In the end, college is still about getting an educa-tion. Without an education, all those good times mean nothing.

Where do you want to see the house in the future?

I think because of the strug-gle’s we had when I was there, I never had very high hopes. I always wanted the house to be bigger and better than when we had it. And that’s what it’s at right now. Anything as long as you don’t go backward is a step in the right direction.

1960s

One of the first: Colony president recalls charteringBy John Sullivan ’13

TOM whITeLOCk ’65 had leadership experi-

ence as student body presi-dent of Phoenix College and was interested and active in public relations. For these rea-sons, when he came to Arizo-na State University in the early 1960s, a new fraternity colony on campus — Fiji — sought him out to become a member. He would soon become the colony president and watch the colony receive its charter the year of his graduation.

“We started out with about 15 guys,” Whitelock said of the early days of the colony. “It was an uphill battle, but we had a very select group of men come in as initial members.”

Th e colony included indi-viduals skilled in academics and athletics, studying majors

including engineering, busi-ness and architecture.

“Th ere was diversity as far as ideas and cooperation,” Whitelock said. “We pulled together to make an impres-sion on the fraternity scene by winning a number of activi-ties in Greek Week and com-petitions during Homecom-ing events.”

As the original colony members initially lacked the bonding that comes with pledgeship and had a wide ar-ray of opinions on what the colony should look like, it took hard work to get the col-ony off the ground. In the fi rst couple years of the colony, brothers from the University of Arizona guided the ASU members in terms of organi-zation, morals and policies.

Whitelock was born and raised in Phoenix (“I was one of the few that wasn’t an In-dian,” he said), which in his childhood had fewer residents than ASU has students today. He moved to the Dallas area in 1974. He has been retired from the logistics industry “forever” and has a wife and a son.

“At 72, it’s time to kick back and try to take care of a few

things that I’ve passed over in years past,” Whitelock said.

In his free time, Whitelock is a member of the National Society of Sons of the Ameri-can Revolution, an organiza-tion composed of men who can trace their roots to ances-tors who were active in the American Revolution.

His memories of his un-dergraduate days include Fiji Islander in the desert and formal and informal athletics with brothers.

Whitelock said under-graduate brothers should take the lessons and values of the fraternity seriously and help mold pledges and younger brothers. Th e chapter should maintain a good academic standing and support ASU and the community.

Michael Ratzken ’13 con-tributed to this report.

Whitelock is a member of the Sons of the American Revolution.


Jess Roman ’72 was born in Phoenix and still lives there. He works in commercial banking.

What are you plans for the future?

Continuing to be a good parent and grandparent and a good leader in the commu-nity.

What are your favorite hobbies?Working out and sketching.

Why did you decide to rush Fiji?

I really liked the culture of the house and all of the broth-ers seemed like great guys. Th ey were the kind of guys that I wanted to be around.

What are your favorite memories from your col-lege days?

I loved going to football games and, of course, Island-er. When I was there, we had a strip of grass by the fraternity house, and it was just fun to go out with a couple brothers and throw a football around.

How did your Fiji experi-

ence impact you after college?

Aft er college I was more confi dent in developing rela-tionships with other people and being able to communi-cate eff ectively.

What is your advice for undergraduate brothers?

Just to be serious about ap-preciating the time you have at school and with the broth-ers in the house because time fl ies, and before you know it, you’ll already have graduated. So appreciate your time there and get as involved as pos-

sible.

Do you still keep in con-tact with many Fijis?

Oh yeah. Th e phrase “Not for college days alone” is real. Many undergrads don’t un-derstand that until they grad-uate, so appreciate the time you have with your brothers and get close to them.

I still keep in contact with at least six other brothers on a daily basis, as well as several others that I see on a monthly basis.

’70s grad stresses importance of ‘Not for college days alone’

WATKINS, from page 3

Having heard of PhiGamma Delta, Watkins was interested in pledging the minute he made it onto the ASU campus. He missed rush, but was able to get in touch with the recruitment chair-man and received the bid that

began his journey. Today, Watkins owns and

operates Watkins Landmark Construction in San Diego, Calif. Th e company serves all of southern California.

Watkins utilizes the values of Phi Gamma Delta day-to-day in the workplace by fre-quently reciting the last three

lines of Calvin Coolidge’s “Persistence” quote in busi-ness meetings to keep staff members working at their best abilities.

Th e then-treasurer of Kappa Alpha Th eta ended up marrying Watkins, perhaps due in part to the lovely po-ems he wrote for her before

Fiji Islander. Today, Watkins and his wife have a son and a daughter, neither of whom will attend the University of Arizona, Watkins said.

In the future, Watkins would love to expand his company to Phoenix and get involved with the undergrad-uate chapter.
