Larry met with Kerri Lacock (VP Development) to discuss the future of the Fiji Reserve Fund and the Phi Gamma Delta Scholarship Fund. The Reserve Fund was established in the 1990’s to raise money to help establish the new chapter house at 312 Chestnut Street. The remaining funds were used to help repair and refurbish the new chapter house but during recent years have gone unused and remain on deposit with the college. The Scholarship Fund began in 2015 to establish a scholarship (s) for Fiji undergraduates at W&J. The fund now has over $50,000 but with the chapter’s suspension has also gone unused.

We agreed to keep both funds untouched for the next 20 years in the hope that the chapter will be re-established. This decision will be revisited at 5 year intervals. Brendan Schneider ’94 was added as an advisor for both funds in addition to Dr. Wickerham.

Both funds remain active and can accept tax-deductible donations. In the past few years, donations have been made in memory of:
