On the Farm with Hugh McPherson ’97
After college, Hugh McPherson ’97 returned home to the family farm where he started Maize Quest — a cornfield maze adventure. Hugh’s Kappa Sigma connection started with Matt Greico ’96 and the Blue Band. He remembers Outrunning the Enemy with JT; Gooch setting Brian Say ’97 on fire; Bolt in general; the Celtic Collision; learning a proper Western PA accent from Colby and Ed winning best set design in Greek Sing. For him, fraternity was about people. “I learned a lot about people. I wouldn’t trade a minute of discussion, argument, fight or brain-storming with my brothers. I think the reason fraternity men are successful is the opportunity they are given to learn from a large group of people they have to live with for more than a semester. That kind of experience is not replicated in dorms or apartments. My brothers taught me more about interacting with people than any class could have.”
