What is Exellence?
1.
Exellence is the state of being "fratty". When in the "exellent" state of mind, one is in his frattiest mode. Usually during the "exellent" state, one wears popped collars, cargo shorts, flip-flops, aviators, and a belt buckle the size of Texas.
The term "exellence" dates back to the mid nineteenth century, at which time two gentlemen, Thomas Page Charles Moore as well as William Henry Letterman, decided to form a fraternity known as "Phi Kappa Psi."
Phi Psis are known as "men of excellence" but it wasn't until 2003, when a member of the Nebraska Beta Chapter, known then as Terrence Wayne Huntington Jr, decided to remove the "c" from the spelling. TW, as he is called, bestowed the authority to take away the "c" after he was proclaimed The Fastest Man in Nebraska (self-proclaimed.)
During his acceptance speech (a drunken oration given at the Phi Psi formal in Minneapolis, spring 2005) TW offered some sound reasons for taking the "c" out of excellence. First and foremost, TW decreed that since his name does not have the letter C in it, the word excellence shouldn't either. To this day, TW spells his name "Terrenxe Wayne Huntington Jr."
The second sound reason, as given by Terrenxe, was that the letter C is "shellfish" which translated from drunken TW to English means "selfish."
The term "exellence" showed up again in early 2008, this time on the pledge class t-shirts. Some speculated that it was just a misspelling of the correct word, but many skeptics still believe the spirit of TW lives on in Nebraska Beta and that his legacy would be continued through the t-shirts. TW himself actually lives on in our hearts... and near the Nebraska Beta house, about 2 miles to be exact. He spends his time chasing squirrels around the yard to prove that he is still faster than them, as well as their nutritional benefits. When he isn't gunning for a lawsuit by PETA, TW spends his time creating "WWTWD" memorabilia.
Nick Hartnett is the pledge class distributor of exellence.
Josh Hansen is exellent to the max.
