Visibility

It is my opinion that one of the most important goals of every Section Chair or Staff should be to maintain visibility throughout the section.  Already, this year, the staff of Section 67 has been making huge strides in this area, first with the development of the brand new website, and secondly through our conference calls with members of our chapter and petitioning group executive boards across the section.  Through both of these resources, I hope that our visibility has been greatly expanded.  Please also note that when you sign onto the new website, there is a box in the bottom right hand corner that is labeled "Chat with the Chair."  If I'm on-line, it will open a chat window, and I would love to talk to you!

Nonetheless, visibility can only be somewhat tangible on-line and over the phone; in order to be truly visible, a Section Chair or Staff really needs to show up and visit with chapters.  While age old minimum requirements set forth in Section 67 only stipulate that I must visit each chapter, petitioning group, or interest group once a year, I think that's just a little too little.  As such, I'm hoping to visit everyone a lot, lot more than that.

Here are my current tentative visiting dates for September and early October, with the potential that more will be added soon.  I'm looking forward to seeing all of you very very soon!

  • September 9 - Progressive Dinner, Alpha Zeta
  • September 10 - Hope in the City, Alpha Zeta
  • September 10 - Kids Fest, Alpha Zeta Kappa
  • September 10 - Pledge Ceremony, Alpha Zeta Kappa
  • September 20 - Pledge Ceremony, Alpha Gamma Phi
  • October 1 - Pledge Retreat, Alpha Zeta
  • October 1 - Formal Night, Theta Theta
  • October 2 - Pledge Ceremony, Theta Theta
In addition to my chapter visits, other ways to increase visibility are currently in development, and I'm looking forward to releasing details about those shortly.  If you have any questions, please always feel free to e-mail me as well.  I'm always here to chat and also to take suggestions and opinions.

Brotherly love,
- Brandyn
