Matthew Weisberg ’97, “They had me at hello…”

We had the opportunity to speak with Matthew Weisberg ’97 about Kappa Sigma, his infamous nickname, and what has come of his career since graduation.  Like many involved in Greek life, Weisberg had a story behind his choice in fraternity.  Originally, he rushed in the fall of his freshman year, but at this point he felt Greek life was not for him and he did not feel comfortable with them, nor did he think they were comfortable with him.  Those fraternities that he rushed in the fall seemed to be too homogenous, elitist and cliquey; in short, stand-offish…but this changed.  In the spring, he pledged and was initiated into the Alpha-Delta Chapter, but why the sudden change?  “Alpha-Delta at that time [and well before] had a history of personality diversity; simply, there were a lot of different characters; that mix made me as an individual feel comfortable, truly at home, and relaxed,” said Matthew about Kappa Sigma.  He had the assistance of his big-brother, Steve “Squash” Ruth ’96, and the kind and enthusiastic Rush Chair, Jeff “Monty” Montgomery ’94, “They had me at ‘hello’.”
