I saw something wonderful when I was driving through the FSU campus this morning. There's a low concrete wall next to the curb, and the sororities and fraternities are allowed to paint messages on the wall. One of the fraternities had written this - all in red and blue on white:

Remember our president, our hero, our brother
Ronald Reagan 1911 - 2004

My daughter thinks she saw TKE at the bottom. Do you know anything about President Reagan's college years?

He was a TKE -- from their webpage --

"From my 1929 initiation into the Iota Chapter at Eureka College, to this day, TKE has played an important role in my life. The various offices I have held in TKE-Big Brother, Hegemon, and Chapter Prytanis-provided invaluable Leadership experience. But, my most cherished benefits from membership in TKE have been the many warm friendships and spirit of camaraderie which are only to be found among Fraters."
-President Ronald Reagan
