Ryan, aka OD aka O-Dawg, was one of the TDC's original brothers back 
during the TDC's inaugural freshman year.  Since then, he has moved on
to continue his academic pursuits at JMU-rival Univerisity of Virginia.
OD will be remembered as the "father figure" of the TDC. He introduced
us all to new vocabulary (see below) and always set a good example for
other TDC brothers- whether it be in the study lounge, at UREC, or 
sipping a Powerade at the pong table.  We were proud to have O-Dawg
as a brother. Although OD may now wear the colors of the Cavaliers, he'll
always bleed TDC gold and royal purple. Now pause a moment and take
a stroll down memory lane.....OD-style!
