Leaders in Pharmacy Dedication: Brother Louis C. Cipriany With great respect, we dedicate this sixth edition of the Phi Delta Chi Fra- ternal Education Manual to Brother Louis C. Cipriany (Epsilon). Lou served as Honorary Grand President during the 57th Grand Council Monterey, 1989). A charter member of the Phi Delta Chi Board of Coun- selors, he practiced pharmacy in community, hospital, industrial, and con- sultant settings. Brother Cipriany claimed ownership of the original idea to add milk of magnesia to Amphogel® to relieve constipation, thus giving rise to the Maalox® brand. He remembered receiving a $1.00 consultation fee for his sage advice [Communicator Winter 1990:2]. Lou was born on September 11, 1920. Initiated into Epsilon Chapter, he earned his B.Sc. degree from Philadelphia College of Pharmacy in 1941 and his M.Sc. degree in 1950. During World War II, he served with the U.S. Army’s Medical Administrative Corps. He owned and operated sev- eral community pharmacies and was an active member of APhA, ASCP, and the Pennsylvania Pharmaceutical Association. He was one of the charter members who formed the American Society of Hospital Pharmacists in 1942. Lou was very active and supportive of the Epsilon Chapter of Phi Delta Chi, and in 1960, Lou was in- strumental in encouraging pharmacy students at Duquesne University to form our Beta Gamma Chapter. Throughout his career, Lou could always be seen at major pharmacy meetings throughout the country. Phi Delta Chi Brothers from across decades recognized Lou’s friendly face. His pride in and support of the Fraternity was unwavering. He was a true symbol of goodwill. Although health concerns limited his ability to travel in the ear- ly 1990s, Lou kept in touch and his name was frequently brought up when Phi Dex Brothers gather at national meetings. Lou passed away February 18, 2005, but his spirit will always be a part of Phi Delta Chi. Brothers Dean McCann, Dick Parent, and Dick Smith of Omicron Chapter originated PHI DELTA CHI’s first Pledging Manual on November 2, 1951. In 1965, Brothers of Lambda Chapter revised the Manual, led by Brother Robert Patterson. Subsequent revisions occurred in 1976, led by Beta Beta Chapter; in 1983, led by Delta Chapter and delegates to the 1983 Centennial Grand Council; in 1987, led by Alpha Eta Chapter; and between 1998 and 2005, coordinated by Grand VP for Alumni Affairs Dave Karls and Grand VP for Student Affairs Michael Mohundro, with input from Grand Officers, Regional Meeting attendees, and other Brothers. This Fraternal Education Manual serves as a guide for each person pledged and committed to PHI DELTA CHI. It aids learning about the Fraternity and serves as a reminder of the voluntary obligations that each aspiring Brother assumes. To each, we sincerely suggest your diligent reading and application of the information contained herein. Initiated Brothers: Refer back to this Manual peri- odically for instruction and renewal. We wish each of you success in your fraternal journey. We urge you to work diligently for your Fraternity. For only as a Brother be- comes more and more involved in PHI DELTA CHI can "Life's Crowning Star of Brotherhood" be attained. Copyright © 2013, Phi Delta Chi Pharmacy Fraternity, Inc.
