ON THE INSIDE:
CHANCELLOR DR. JIMMY CHEEK VISITS AGR
On the evening of October 28, 2014, the brothers of Alpha Kappa hosted
Chancellor Jimmy
Cheek and his wife
Ileen, Vice Chancellor
Vincent Carilli, Dr. Keith
Barber, Tom Looney,
Mrs. Newton, Mr. and
Mrs. Doug Craig, and
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Harrison for an evening of
food and fellowship at
the chapter house.
Cheek and friends were
very impressed with the involvement that the brothers at Alpha Kappa are
involved with.
Chancellor Cheek was also on the front lawn here at 1840 for the first
annual Boys and Girls Club Trick-or-Treat on Fraternity Park. The house
was decorated for the event beforehand and many brothers “dressed up”
for the event along with the ladies of Alpha Omicron Phi to host the trickor-treat event. We enjoyed a wonderful meal prepared by Kitchen Steward Beech and Norman Willis. We plan on having more evenings of food
and fellowship in the future with Cheek and other faculty here at 1840.

2014 UT HOMECOMING REPORT
On Saturday Oct. 11 2014 the University of Tennessee Volunteers
had an impressive and
expected game in
Neyland Stadium. The
Volunteers beat the
Chattanooga Mocs 45
– 10 which provided
for some hope that UT
is back on the rise to
dominance. Prior to
Saturday’s game the
actives of Alpha Kappa were busy competing in the All-Campus
Events Homecoming
Challenge.
I am happy to report that Alpha Gamma Rho won three first place trophies total this year but disappointedly it was not enough to pull up with
the overall 1st place in the competition. We finished 2nd place within a 510 point margin which was the closest I have seen in my four years at the
University of Tennessee. This year we partnered with the lovely ladies of
Alpha Omicron Pi under the theme of “Tennessee Traditions” I was
pleased to lead the Homecoming Committee this year, and with the dedicated work of many brothers, Alpha Kappa was well represented to the
Volunteer community.

LETTER OF THANKS
In June of 2002 Dan Culp
called and invited me to
lunch which, by the way, I
paid for. He told me that I
was his replacement as
chapter adviser and chief of
maintenance. We then
walked through the house
with him pointing out jobs
which had to be done. Before leaving, he handed me a pile of various
documents and directions needed to do
maintenance. I drove home wondering how
he had unloaded that job on to me. Normal
procedures established by National were
completely ignored and there was no action
taken by the alumni board. Little did I know
that Dan had done me a great favor.
That fall Bobby Simpson and Charlie
Hall became my mentors and pointed me in
positive directions. I owe much to both of
them. Not long afterward, Robert Elliott,
then Noble Ruler, called with a major problem which we rapidly corrected. From that
incident, I learned we had active leadership
with character and the guts to stand tall.
Later both Charlie and Bobby retired with
Charlie moving to Texas. Fortunately, Bobby stayed nearby and has generously continued as my mentor. Since that time, chapter leadership has continually impressed me
with integrity and sound moral values.

CHAPTER ADVISORS REPORT
The Alpha Kappa Chapter had an exciting
Fall semester with twenty-two new initiates.
This outstanding group learned much about
AGR and actively participated in house and
campus activities. In October the members
hosted a dinner for Chancellor Cheek, Vice
Chancellor Vincent Carilli and other special
guests. The event was enjoyed by everyone.
Members were greatly honored to host these

guests. Homecoming was a
huge event this year. The members were proud
to have received second place overall in the
homecoming activities and are
aiming for first place next year.
Officer elections were held in
November and again the undergraduates have chosen a worDoug Craig thy group of chapter leaders.
AGR had the seventh highest
average GPA of seventeen fraternities at 2.86.
The members will be working hard in the Spring
semester to improve their standing. House
maintenance expenses were below the $18,000 Tom Looney
budget with no major house expense.
GOAN HONORED BY UT
With a theme of “Brag About Ag,” the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture did
some bragging about some of its own this past
weekend – as well as honoring some of Tennessee’s best farmers. UTIA presented several
awards at its “Ag Day” celebration this Saturday, and even managed to keep the top honor
a secret from the winner.
Former UT Extension poultry specialist Dr.
Charlie Goan, AKSN-220, admits he was surprised to hear his
name called when the Institute announced its Meritorious Service Award winner for 2014. The award recognizes distinguished
friends and supporters who have been instrumental to the success of UTIA programs.
“It was a surprise, definitely so,” Goan said. “It made me reflect back on the many years I’ve had here.”
UTIA has been part of Charlie’s life since he was a freshman
here in 1961. He earned bachelors and masters degrees from
UTIA, and then his doctorate from Michigan State. He came
back to UT Extension, and served as a poultry specialist until
2002. The following year he was named department head for
Food Science and Technology, and also served as interim dean
for UT Extension and interim director for the East Tennessee
AgResearch and Education Center.
Charlie served as a chapter advisor to Alpha Gamma Rho for
many, many years.

CHAPTER AND HOUSE UPDATE
Let’s take a look at the present Alpha Kappa Chapter and relate it to the past as well as a look at the future. The Fall
2014 semester membership is 99 and 44% are agriculture majors. This does not include anyone who has an agricultural background such as having grown up on a farm, active in 4-H and / or FFA in high school, or worked on a farm which
is the case for almost all of the 56% non Ag majors. Also, a large percentage on the non Ag majors are Ag related majors recognized by the AGR national office. The best estimate of the membership who have no relationship to agriculture is less than 5% of the membership.
