Mu of DKE has a long tradition of its members supporting Colgate University with their talents and treasure. Since our founding, numerous brothers have returned to Colgate and have assumed leadership positions within the faculty and administration. Still more brothers returned to volunteer as alumni leaders serving on the Colgate University Board of Trustees and Alumni Council. The number of places on Colgate’s campus built with the leadership gifts of brothers and bearing the names of Dekes is also a testament to our members’ continued support of Colgate University. This tradition of meaningful service continues to this day with brothers occupying numerous alumni volunteer positions, from the Board of Trustees to the President’s Club Membership Committee. In addition, several Colgate University faculty chairs and scholarship endowments have been generously funded by DKE brothers in support of Colgate University. Please email sfitzmichaeld@msn.com if you are a DKE who serves (or who has served) in a volunteer leadership capacity for Colgate University and are not listed below.
