Undergrads Ian Rose and Yotam Dror are doing more this summer than boozing and working a horrible job, they’re filming a documentary. Unlike the unsavory videos that many college students are posting on YouTube (which is the likely the real cause of high unemployment among recent graduates), this is a...
PA Alpha Delta is officially re-chartered! On April 20, undergraduates, distinguished alumni, and IHQ dignitaries celebrated the official recognition of the PA Alpha Delta chapter at a grandiose chartering banquet hosted on the floating buffet, Moshulu. Brothers and their dates were served a banquet dinner, non-complimentary drinks, and seemingly endless...
There’s nothing fun about being a cash-strapped undergrad. We’ve all been there. Sure, we tried to find ways to scrape up money for the essentials: books, housing, Owl’s Nest pizza and cheap beer, but that didn’t leave a whole lot left, and as a result we’ve lost some good brothers...
This summer Philadelphia played host to Pi Lambda Phi’s Leadership Convention, the annual gathering of Pi Lams and subsequent validation that most other chapters are weenies. You may remember as an undergrad, it’s not just an event; it’s an obligation! Days of exhilarating dialogue on eliminating prejudice, living the creed,...
Some Pi Lams are doing great things, while others… Lee Greenspan ’55 – Still Rockin’ 56 years after Brother Greenspan graduated, he is still involved with Temple and Pi Lam. Lee was the most senior brother at this year’s Kovner Banquet and was gracious enough to give a highly entertaining...

Congratulations to Barry Gould ’79, the winner of...
Some Pi Lams are doing great things, while others… Richard Cohen ’78 – Recognized as a Super Techie Geek Richard Cohen was recently recognized by Temple’s Fox School of Business with a 2010 Information Technology Award for his distinguished career in IT and his contribution to the community, industry and...
At this year’s Kovner Memorial Banquet, a new award honoring the memory of Shawn Battle ’92, who passed into the Chapter Eternal October 2007, will be given to an undergraduate with a very special set of qualities. Shawn was a man of good humor who showed remarkable devotion to his...
Some Pi Lams are doing great things, while others… Marc Bendo ’94 – Self-proclaimed Renaissance man In addition to offering legal services to the downtrodden and litigious, Marc Bendo has apparently been highly productive in his spare time since college. Marc reports that he’s become, “an expert in jungle warfare,...
A bone-chilling day in December 2009 saw the initiation of 14 brothers into Pi Lambda Phi, officially signifying the return of the PA Alpha Delta chapter to Temple. For the fall 2009 class, freezing their orbs off in a barn* in Montgomery County was a small price to pay to...
