I just started a new job last week. My first interview was an online interview with a fellow alumnus from MIT.

Another new hire just joined the company today. His manager sent out an email introducing him and mentioning that he, too, had gone to MIT.

So I checked out the new hire in our alumni directory. Turns out he's an alumnus of Phi Beta Epsilon, a local fraternity founded back in 1890. And he'd been referred by the man who did my first interview - who, guess what, is also a PBE.

All three of us also share the same major (CS), although I graduated *mumble* years before they matriculated. They overlapped by two years.

The PBEs I knew while I was in school were gentlemen one and all. It seems that has largely held true since then.
