The January 2007 issue of Theta Data featured a story about the Beta pin’s history and the Editor’s pin collection. The Editor purchased 12 standard-sized pins from eBay and acquired three large valuable old pins from other chapter brothers. This valuable collection of pins has now been placed on permanent loan from the House Corporation to the National Fraternity, and will be on permanent display in Oxford, under the care of Eric Eickhoff ’00. Eric is the volunteer Chief Archivist for our national fraternity. Brothers who would like to make similar provisions for their Beta pins and/or other valuable memorabilia should contact the Editor at tomtatham@aol.com or by cell phone 937-545-9280.
