Who is on the planning team?
The committee will be made up of both student leaders and alumni advisors. This mix will offer students a unique leadership development experience that will provide them training in event planning and project management, and the opportunity to work alongside alumni from myriad professional trades and experiences. In turn, student team leaders will offer the collegiate attendees’ perspectives and provide insight into how the Fraternity can better maximize the collegiate experience at the Convention.
