J. Eddy G. Craig, Jr.Colorado College ’54 “In selecting the names for whom I wish to donate, it reconnects me with that individual that I met 50 or 60 years ago,” Craig said. He has been working his way down the list of names since the brick program began in 1998 to commemorate his brothers and support Phi Delta Theta. “I have my fingers crossed in the hope that maybe somebody to whom I had given a brick would turn around and say, ‘Gee. I remember old Tom or George and I think I’ll donate money in his honor,’” Craig said. Contributing to Phi Delta Theta is important to Craig because the Fraternity helped shape who he is today. “Phi Delta Theta means a lot to me. They took a little country boy from Texas and gave me a sense of being and belonging.” Phi Delta Theta also gave Craig a family away from home. In appreciation of this he honored his former housemother with a memorial brick and donated a brick in the name of a brother from his pledge class that he saw as both a friend and a mentor. Craig has donated bricks in the name of men he admired, like the chapter president he looked up to as a Phikeia, but also in the name of brothers he may not have been particularly close to. “I give bricks to people I might not even have gotten along with because we are still connected in the Bond and I really value that,” Craig said. The relationships he formed with all the members of Colorado Beta provided Craig some of his favorite college memories. “The best part was the enjoyment of getting to know guys from different backgrounds, different parts of the country, different everything from me,” Craig said. “My dad once told me the most important thing you’re going to come away with from college is your relationships. Hopefully you’ll get a good education, but you’ll get to figure out how to get along with folks you normally wouldn’t have had associations. I think that’s the most important thing I came away with.” Pictured above are Judy and Eddy Craig. Brother Craig's own brick is below:
