Quality, Not Quantity It seems only yesterday that a group of young men branched out and formed a new club called Kappa Tau Omega. In reality , Kappa Tau celebrated its third birthday in the 1983-84 school year, and just as a child continues to grow in strength and size, so has Kappa Tau developed. Brent Thomas, a senior and one of the original founders said, "When Kappa Tau was formed we didn't want to be known for just one thing. We wanted to excel in various things. We also wanted a club that was centered around God. " The members of Kappa Tau retained the original goals of their founders by seeking to become better in different areas . One of these was spiritual growth. Kappa Tau had devotionals weekly during the course of the - ~ - - )01 " J, Radclif fe . year by themselves as well as with other clubs such as Sigma Phi, Omega Phi, Shantih, and others. These times of sharing strengthened the club and prepared them for dealing with every ~ day situations. Kappa Tau was a strong force to deal with in the world of club sports. The guys participated in softball , football , volleyball, bowling, basketball , and swimming. Kappa Tau 's "A" and "e" teams both secured second places in the softball competition. In volleyball their "e" team took the first place trophy and in football "e" team took second place , while both "A" and "B" teams finished third. Social life was also a part of Kappa Tau 's agenda this year. Besides getting together to worship God and to play sports, the members enjoyed activities such as a hayride , a Christmas party, a pizza party , a campout at Wyldewood , and their Spring Banquet. The reason for Kappa Tau's obvious success is well sta ted by Joe Ward: "The guys in Kappa Tau enjoy each other's company in different ways: athletically , spiritually , and socially. The variety provided in the club only makes it stronger. We are getting better every year because of the quality of both the older members and the younger ones combined. " The year proved that a high set of goals set by a group of young men three years ago has put fo rth a club wi th a definite sense of direction and purpose. 4 1.
