CLA Changes Raise the Bar and the COST

CLA Changes Become Winter Challenge in Many Ways
The National Leadership Committee has announced changes in the number, location and officers paid for for the Carlson Leadership Acadimies 2009 as can be seen in the article quoted from the most recent Officers’ Monthly.
SigEp adds lasting value to the college experience because our programs set high expectations.

LinkedIn Group has 1000 Members

I like LinkedIn.com as a social networking site because of its professional demeanor. No one writes on your wall, and you don’t need to worry about being attacked by vampires or zombies. It is easy to put up a good version of a resume and you are encouraged to ask questions and other profession types [...]

Another opinion on EDGE

We have another point of view on the question of whether EDGE is worthwhile. In the interest of equal coverage we are treating it as a guest post as well…
I have to disagree almost entirely with the previous post in regards to EDGE being a waste of money.
First of all, the numbers that were [...]

Over the EDGE - Guest Post

We have a guest poster today who has some things to say about the EDGE program and how it is run. He has asked to remain private for now, but he is a person who is “in a position to know” as the news media would say.
The Summer ‘08 Journal has solidified my previous inclinations [...]

Conundrum Redux

Most of the following was posted to the blog in 2004. It doesn’t appear that much has changed in the past four years.

For anyone who was ever nominated or self-nominated to be considered for a vacancy knows very well that the pretense of propriety is there but underlying it is a [...]

"Breaking News" Musings

A recent post made reference to some unrest with the National Board of Directors and the Headquarters Staff. First let me give you an almost three decade perspective of what may have precipitated what has happened.
For as long as I can remember we have had a very unorthodox way in which the fraternity operates. First [...]

Holidays are over

Just checked the stats. Looks like people are coming back from break and checking up on what they missed.
Welcome back.

Happy New Year

It has been almost six years now since I left the humid South and moved to the arid West. It seemed quite strange after 20+ years of continuous alumni service to several chapters in the immediate vicinity of where I was living. During that time I had served as District Governor, on numerous alumni boards, [...]

What’s in a Nickname?

I think we need to have a “Truth Squad” to explain the difference between “ΣΦΕ” and “ΣΑΕ” to the media and to let them know that “SigEp” is NOT a common nickname for SAE.
