Educational Session 2: The Application of Trends For The Success of Your Chapter’s Meal Program: Lakeshore Ballroom, Lobby Level Food trends change from year to year, just like the values and lifestyles of the men and women that come through a Greek chapter house. “What’s going to be the next big thing?” is often asked of chefs, foodies, house directors, and house corporations alike.

We will discuss the current lifestyle and food trends such as the local food movement, increasingly global palates, nutrition demands, and desires for high end presentation even for the most simple menu items. We will share how these trends relate to young men and women to help your chapter’s leadership stay on top - and maybe even ahead - of the trend.

Educational Session 4: Being A House Mom: A Risky Business!: Lakeshore Ballroom, Lobby Level The college experience has changed over the last 10-15 years rendering it important to stay current on trends and issues. From new policy language regarding alcohol, to increased allegations of hazing and sexual misconduct, there’s a great deal more risk to manage. Given the changing landscape within the college/university environment, it can be tough to keep track of policy changes and legislative updates that could affect you and your students. In this session, we will discuss the various liabilities that house directors and house mothers have on their campuses, reporting requirement distinctions based upon your employment relationship with the campus versus house corporation and, best practices in the field. We will also discuss how insurance coverages from national entities may or may not cover your liability and what questions you can ask of your employer to gain that knowledge.
