This semester, the College Heights Herald is introducing The Fifth Element. It’s the Herald’s first podcast that will take its listeners through the experiences of everyday people that have unique stories. The goal of the Fifth Element is to encourage community unity through the art of storytelling. The five elements – grit, success, passion, character and growth – make a story unique and tie people together.

The first episode is I am because we are. In this episode of The Fifth Element, co-Founder Don Offutt takes us through a historical walk of how the Gamma Theta chapter was chartered on WKU’s campus and their latest achievement of becoming the first Greek organization to have a standing monument on campus.
