What is Tor? Tips for Sources After Submitting “The memories of Sigma Chi at USC were unbelievable,” reflects Mirko. Selleck, who is now 77 years old and lives with his wife on a 65-acre California ranch and former avocado farm, is a “terrific, terrific man,” says Mirko. When Tom’s older brother passed away several years ago, Mirko says it hit Tom “really hard” as it did all of his chapter mates from that era. “Sigma Chi in 50 years is still Sigma Chi.” That Selleck and Mirko remain in touch today: “It doesn’t surprise me,” Lacy says. Lacy has good memories of Mirko as well, who was quite a good pool player as well as basketball player. It was just like being back in the house. Lacy says he ran into Selleck not long ago.

He’s exactly what you see in the TV shows and movies he’s in. Selleck’s pledge brother Lacy Marlette, a successful CPA who now serves on the Trojan Sig Foundation and House Corporation, recalls “He was just a great guy in college. It’s not just Selleck’s little brother who speaks highly of him. All the guys realized their buddy was a super star. Right after graduating, Selleck became the Marlboro man and was everywhere. But when Selleck landed a Pepsi TV ad while still in college, the guys heard Selleck talk about how many bottles of Pepsi he had to drink during the shoot. Sometimes guys got a “whammy” – a part that got your face on screen. Hollywood producers would often come to the house looking for extras. Tom pledged Sigma Chi because his older brother Bob, two years older, was a Sig at AU. Tom was a year ahead of him as a junior transfer student. Mirko first came to know Tom when they were both playing for the Trojan basketball team as well as the volleyball team. But he’ll always be known, at least to those of a certain age, as the super cool private investigator Magnum, P.I.Īs Selleck became a star, he became a proud conversation during rush weeks at Sigma Chi chapters everywhere.īut it’s the Alpha Upsilon brothers who can call Selleck one of our own, initiated on June 12, 1965. And a big award winner, including a Significant Sig. He’s made scores of films, other TV shows and commercials.

Selleck is in his 12th season playing the NYC police commissioner in the CBS TV show Blue Bloods. The two have remained in touch even though Mirko is also awfully busy travelling and working in real estate investment with properties in Phoenix, Nashville, Indiana and South Carolina. “He was really thoughtful and appreciative. “It was Tom’s influence that I pledged Sigma Chi.” And immediately, Tom became a mentor to him. It was Tom who was keeping Mirko out of trouble. Please tell Tom to stay out of trouble’.” Mirko laughs.

In fact, Mirko says “Tom’s father came up to me and said ‘Mirko, do me a favor. “Tom was so gracious and helpful and really kept me out of trouble and kept me in school. “Phenomenal” is how Mirko describes Selleck back then. And Mirko says they remain in touch even today, despite Selleck’s unfathomable demands on his time and attention.

Yep, Tom Selleck was Mirko’s Big Brother.

But, frankly, it never dawned on him that his Big Brother at Alpha Upsilon would become one of the biggest movie and TV stars of all time. Every Sig can think back to their undergraduate days and remember indications that someone might do well in life.
