The sultry temperature on the last day of September didn’t stop nearly 50 alumni and guests to turnout for the 2023 Alumni Tailgate. The Beta Tau Shelter was packed with activity to celebrate brotherhood, Delta Tau Delta, and cheer on the Huskers.

Delt alumni from various generations were able to visit and share what they’ve been up to, many spouses were in attendance, as well as current and former House Mothers.

Russ Stigge (Beta Tau, 1970) led off the festivities by conducting the group in a rendition of “Delta Queen” and other local favorites.

Steve Fallon (Beta Tau, 1972) was awarded the Thomas E. Wolf Alumnus of the Year Award by the Chapter. Brother Fallon has been instrumental in the maintenance and improvement of the structure during the past year and will be heading the construction improvement of the kitchen this upcoming winter.

The alumnus of the year award was named in honor of Thomas E. Wolf (Beta Tau, 1967) who was a long-time House Corporation director and officer who gave over 40 years of volunteer service to Delta Tau Delta. Brother Wolf passed to the Chapter Eternal in the summer of 2023.

John resides in the Shelter and achieves a 3.83 cumulative GPA. John plans to attend law school after graduation.

In responding to an essay question asking to describe what Delta Tau Delta means to him and his favorite moments, John stated:

My favorite moments in Delt have included emotional conversations that have foreshadowed deep relationships with my brothers. My first complex conversation with a brother occurred before I pledged. We elaborated on how we want to be the best men we can be. We want to be there for our mothers, wives, children, etc. We want to be the best we can be for each other’s families.”

-John Strauss (Beta Tau, 2026), inaugural recipient of the Alan Emanuel Scholarship.
