As told to Amanda May

"Sunday, October 21, 1990, 3:30 p.m. at Rocky Rococo’s Pizza on the Ped Mall. 

It was Homecoming week against the Northwestern Wildcats—the year we made the run to the Rose Bowl! Homecoming festivities included a window painting contest—the Kappas and Phi Psi’s were designing and painting the window at Rocky Rococo’s. 

One of the cute Phi Psi guys was Ryan McBride (BS91). Love at first sight??? Well… seven years later we married, and we now have four kids. We’re all Hawkeyes through and through!”
