Slippery Rock University fraternity helps Grove City boy

     SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. –  Members of Slippery Rock University's Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity recently staged a "PittsBurgh All-Stars Rap and Hip Hop Concert" to raise funds to support three-year-old Jordan Jack. Jordan suffers from Griscelli Syndrome, a life-threatening illness. The event raised $1,300.

      Presenting a check to Jordan’s grandmother, Kathleen Jack, (center) executive staff assistant in University Advancement are (from left) Ed Watton, a health and physical education major from Pittsburgh and Pi Kappa Alpha vice president; Brenton Tony, a health an physical education major from Dunbar and fraternity president; Josh Schroyer, an undeclared major from Connellsville; Brian Sullivan, a safety and environmental management major from Pittsburgh; Alex Miranda, an undeclared major from Pottsville; Steve Miller, a health and physical education major from Erie, and Seth Nicholson, an elementary education, early childhood major from Leisenring and fraternity treasurer.

      Jordan is the son of Jason (1995 SRU graduate) and Monica Jack, of Grove City. "This was an excellent opportunity for the Phi Kappa Alpha brothers to utilize their skills and organization to benefit a member of the SRU extended family," said John Bonando, assistant vice president for student life and adviser to the fraternity.
