With singular determination, exemplifying the very heartbeat of persistence and determination, many of our brothers, over the last 150 years, made significant achievements in business, science, and education. Therefore, it is appropriate that we honor each of these distinguished brothers this year, our 150th fraternal year, for receiving honorary degrees from the the University of Maine. With fraternal pride, affection, and gratitude we recognize, honor, and applaud the fraternal character, tireless efforts, and extraordinary achievements of each of these brothers. They each made an indelible mark in their career fields, and some gained national and international recognition. Truly, each of them were distinct in their success because persistence and determination were truly inseparable for each of them. In truth, and in no small part, they are a living testimony to the truth of these words, and we celebrate these two words that continue to bind our Omega Mu brotherhood. Consequently, each of these brothers merit our praise, and we fraternally honor each of them for the formidable skill of their individual efforts that they exhibited in their diverse career fields. Their collective legacy of success lives on in the memory of our historic brotherhood. With a celebratory nod to our glorious 150 year history at the University of Maine, and to these brothers, we look forward with enthusiasm to our fraternal future and the many young men who go on and do things in their career fields to improve the world. At its root-heart, fraternal life can teach young men how to live the best possible life in the service of others with inspirational enthusiasm and dedication. This is, perhaps, the best thing that continues to occur with generations of Omega Mu brothers today in doing something that is positive and fulfilling in their careers with dedication, maturity, and commitment to make a difference.
