Description
I attached a photo of my Kappa Kappa Psi band fraternity jacket. It was an honor to be selected, and one thing Iearned as a member was how to recite the Greek alphabet. Backwards!

Tom Fore:
I am a proud U of A graduate, class of 1974. I played tenor sax my first two years (70-71). My freshman year was also director Eldon Janzen’s “freshman year.” He came to the band from Richardson (Texas) High School, and his first game as band director was on national television! The game was also ABC’s first televised football broadcast that year. To prepare, we showed up to campus two weeks before the other students and practiced around 8 hours a day.
