For the centennial edition of The Laurel, it would have been a mistake not to highlight the work of Richard J. Young, Miami ‘25.
A man who dedicated his life to Phi Tau and Greek Life, Young took a sabbatical from the Executive Offices in the 1940s only to enlist in the Navy. Upon his return, he set the record as the longest running editor of The Laurel and the longest running Grand Secretary (now CEO) of Phi Tau - both of which he still holds. It’s hard to detail all of his accomplishments in just 1 page, but there are few more fitting to be labeled The Laurel’s “Editor of Distinction.”
