Frater Bob Butterworth, a 1960 initiate of the Gamma-Theta Chapter at the University of Florida, served as Chapter Prytanis as well as Province Supervisor (equivalent to today's position of Grand Province Advisor), and is a recipient of both the Teke Alumnus of the Year Award and the TKE Triangle Award. Butterworth served as Florida's Attorney General for sixteen years (1986-2002), where he received national attention for his success enforcing victim and consumer protection, environmental, civil rights and anti-trust laws. He was a leader in the multi-state litigation against the tobacco industry and was once voted the top Attorney General in the nation by his peers. His further public service includes Broward County Sheriff, circuit and county court judge, mayor, prosecutor, and heading two state agencies - the Department of Children & Families and the Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles. Frater Butterworth served as Dean of the St. Thomas University law school and as an adjunct professor. He currently practices law with the firm of Atkinson, Diner, Stone, Mankuta and Ploucha in Fort Lauderdale.
