table of contents standards policy To ensure that all AFLV Conferences continue to maintain a reputation for excellence and high standards, we have high expectations of appropriate behavior at each event. In an effort to minimize hotel security involvement, behavior standards will be monitored and enforced by the Conference Standards Team.

It is expected that each conference participant reads, understands, and follows conference behavior rules as well as appropriate federal, state, and local laws.

The members of the Conference Staff expect all conference attendees to respect the property and the rights of the hotel and its guests. Be advised that no alcohol is allowed to be brought into the hotel or to be consumed in public areas. Alcohol is not permitted at any conference event, including meals. Loud and disruptive music is also prohibited. The laws of the host state apply to all in attendance.

After one warning, individuals violating conduct expectations may be asked to leave the conference and the hotel. Conference Staff reserves the right to send any individual or delegation home without any warning if the violation is deemed severe enough. University officials and inter/national fraternities and sororities will be informed of the conduct and the individuals responsible. If any member of a council is asked to leave the hotel, that council may be suspended from attending future AFLV conferences. Additionally, if a university has repeated offenses while in attendance, its membership in the Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values and eligibility to attend future conferences will be in jeopardy. cover photo credit: David Grimes via flickr cropped from original

conference info Alcoholic Beverages

Alcoholic beverages are not allowed at any conference functions. Alcoholic beverages may not be carried in hallways or elevators, and there will be no alcohol allowed in guest rooms. Mini bars will be locked and monitored by hotel staff. Any containers found will be confiscated. Just like in every other state, the legal drinking age in the state of California is 21 and is strictly enforced.

Award Recipients

Students and advisors wearing award recipient and/or finalist ribbons represent councils which have applied and been selected to receive awards at the Recognition Banquet.

Ask these people about the outstanding work they are doing and sign up for an awards consultation to win next year!

Conduct

No excessive noise should be heard in the hotel hallways at any time. It is important to respect the privacy of all hotel guests, especially those who are not involved with our conference. See the Standards Policy on page 3 for more information and full details in case you don’t get it by now.

Conference Dress

Badge attire should be worn for all sessions of the conference except the after banquet dance party. Recognition Banquet attire is a coat and tie for men and semi-formal dress for women. Follow us on Pinterest for examples of what is and is not appropriate to wear.

Daily Announcements

All conference updates will be announced in the first general session each day. You can also follow AFLV on Twitter!

Ed Session Evaluations

Provide feedback for each educational session using paper evaluations, which will be available in each session room.

Evaluations are essential to the program presenter and help us make AFLV West even better (if it’s possible). We really do care what you think. Return your completed session evaluations to the in-session volunteer, the program presenter, or to the registration desk in Bayview Foyer. The overall conference evaluation will be available electronically immediately following the conference.

#AFLVWest page 4

Emergencies

Report injuries and illnesses to hotel security and contact an AFLV Central Office staff member immediately.

Meals

Conference registration includes lunch on Friday and Saturday and the Recognition Banquet on Saturday. Your nametag will be your admission to all meals. No refunds are available for missed meals or lost nametags. Additional meal tickets can be purchased from the registration area.

Nametags

Nametags must be worn at all times. Nametags are your admission ticket to ed sessions, general sessions, meals, and any special events (seriously, everything). If you lose your nametag, you will be charged a $20 replacement fee.

Parking

The conference parking rate for attendees is $22.00 per car per day for self parking and $30.00 per car per day for valet (oh you fancy, huh?). If you have questions or need special parking arrangements, contact the Sheraton.

Promptness

Please arrive early to the ed sessions because many sessions fill up quickly! Think about it: if there’s a session you’re super excited to attend, there’s a good chance dozens of other people are also super excited. You have time between sessions to ask questions, get presenter contact information, etc. Because seating capacity is limited for some rooms, sessions could close, so plan ahead and arrive early!

Questions

Find any member of our intern team, Conference Committee, or Central Office staff if you have questions. All of our team members are easily identified by our beautiful, prestigious, silver AFLV nametags.

Registration

Delegates should check in with the hotel before checking in with the conference. Conference registration is located in Bayview Foyer. All AFLV West participants must be registered for the conference and must wear their nametags at all times.

hotel info Check In

Check in is at 3:00 p.m. You will be able to leave your luggage at the bellman station if you arrive early.

Check Out

Check out on Sunday is at 12:00 p.m. If you need extra time, please make arrangements with the front desk.

Bills

All hotel guests are responsible for paying their hotel bills; although you are registered as being affiliated with AFLV, we will not assume any responsibility for your account while attending the conference.

Tipping

Tipping is at your discretion; however, we recommend a minimum of 15%. For bell service, please tip $2.00 per bag depending on the size and weight of each bag.

Hotel Security

The Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina does everything it can to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable stay. Should an emergency arise, dial the operator from any house phone.

AFLV West is a Safe Zone

A Safe Zone is a place that is culturally competent and supportive to LGBTQ individuals and their allies. Basically, this means we hate homophobic behavior or basically any behavior that makes our LGBTQ attendees feel like they’re not equal and celebrated members of the uber-awesome AFLV West experience.

Additionally, we have a gender-neutral restroom located in the Nautilus Foyer. See the map on page 43 for help.

THEY ARE STANDARDS BY WHICH WE VOW TO

The program book is designed to help you easily navigate the conference schedule. Each day has a different colored header to easily find the schedule and details for each day.

Full schedules for each day are on white backgrounds and come before the ed session descriptions for each day.

Educational Session Icons

To help identify sessions for specific populations, we have created icons for sessions with specific content for NCGLC attendees, OUT & Greek attendees, and fraternity/sorority advisors. Additionally, sessions are broken down into 14 categories, many of which correspond to AFLV Awards & Assessment categories. Categorical descriptions are intended to help you pick sessions applicable to your position.

Any participant is welcomed and encouraged to attend any session, regardless of category or conference.

keynote speakers KJ McNamara & vince fabra All Leadership is Social Thursday, April 10 7:30-9:00 p.m. | Grande Ballroom BC

“All Leadership is Social” will inspire you to maximize your social skills and personal “social” ideology to build giant networks of relationships as a means to be a better leader in an effort to truly matter to the world.

Great leaders have the ability to gather members, supporters, and fans around their cause, shared purpose, or mission. Our ability to lead is then greatly defined by our ability to connect with others. You will engage in understanding the value of being more social, the skills to be more social, and the personal philosophy to make Social Excellence a lifestyle. Phired Up pulls no punches while re-imagining the very definition of “social fraternity/sorority” by providing you with the version of “social” our founders intended.

tish norman Calling all Greeks to the Floor Sunday, April 13 9:00-10:30 a.m. | Grande Ballroom BC

Tish will engage us with a multimedia presentation blended with self-reflection and empowerment strategies that motivate.

SNAPSHOT: A True Story of Love Interrupted by Invasion NCGLC Lunch | Saturday, April 12 12:00-1:30 p.m. | Harbor Ballroom III

this likelihood increases dramatically if you stand under a tree.

Mitzi will explore personal, social and cultural identities using art to spark conversations about the legacy of race, class, and violence in America.

Mitzi firmly believes in the transformative power of creative collaboration as a force for positive change for individuals. Through her critically-acclaimed onewoman play, Sinnott shares her journey to reconcile with her father, a veteran haunted by his experience in Vietnam. As the biracial daughter of a black man and white woman from Southern Appalachia, Sinnott’s story is in many ways a singular one, but the themes she addresses are anything but rare.

The live audience is part of the broadcast as social awareness issues including hazing, bullying, alcohol, drugs, assault, sexual assault, social media, and more are brought to life in the form of news stories and headlines. Peyton Manning said Adam performed “the best life skills presentation” he’s ever seen.

response ability institute Permission to Move from Passive to Powerful Saturday, April 12 | 2:00-5:30 p.m. | Seabreeze 1

Do you ever find yourself being a passive bystander to injustices around you? Do you get frustrated because others passively stand by and tolerate inappropriate, offensive, unhealthy and even illegal behaviors? Do you also know what it feels like to intervene, make the difference you want to make, and experience true power?

If so, you definitely want to join us for this inaugural institute as we give you permission to move from being passive to powerful!

You will leave with the education and inspiration to stand up, step in and speak up for others in moments of need—whether it be bullying, hazing, drug/alcohol abuse, discrimination, sexual violence, or any everyday life issue. To accomplish this, we will explore and assess the “seven soulful strengths” that each of us needs to be a champion for others. You will also leave with the three tools—called “T3”—of bystander intervention.

This institute will be interactive, challenging, and inspiring. Come ready to transform your relationship to power and your ability to make the difference you have always wanted to make!

Mitzi will explore various identities using art to spark conversations about the legacy of race, class, and violence in America. She believes in the power of creative collaboration as a force for positive change for individuals.

Sinnott will share her journey to reconcile with her father, a veteran haunted by his experience in Vietnam. As the biracial daughter of a black man and white woman from Southern Appalachia, Sinnott’s story is in many ways a singular one, but the themes she addresses are anything but rare.

keynote: shane windmeyer What’s Your Gay Point Average?

Friday, April 11 | 2:00-3:00 p.m. | Harbor Ballroom II

It is time to take the ultimate test–what’s your Gay Point Average?

Learning about LGBT issues does not have to be divisive or difficult. In fact, college students today need to understand why having a high Gay Point Average is an important aspect of diversity and preparation for success in life—at home, the workplace and places of worship. And, believe it or not, sometimes straight people actually have a higher Gay Point Average than a Grade Point Average, and that’s okay. Shane personally shares the challenges confronting LGBT youth and challenges every person to play an active role in creating safer communities where everyone can thrive.

The importance of straight allies can never be underestimated as young LGBT people struggle with their sexual and gender identities.

Grande Ballroom BC “All Leadership is Social” will inspire you to maximize your social skills and personal “social” ideology to build giant networks of relationships as a means to be a better leader in an effort to truly matter to the world. Great leaders have the ability to gather members, supporters, and fans around their cause, purpose, or mission.

Our ability to lead is then greatly defined by our ability to connect with others. You will engage in understanding the value of being more social, the skills to be more social, and the personal philosophy to make Social Excellence a lifestyle.

Phired Up pulls no punches while re-imagining the very definition of “social fraternity/sorority” by providing you with the version of “social” our founders intended.

What’s Your Story?

Marina 5 | Intake/Membership Recruitment | Program #008

No one wants to hear a list of dates in history, but we’re all captivated by a great story. When it comes to recruitment, every chapter (usually) has great men and women, a legacy of meaningful values, and big dreams for the years ahead. So how can chapters differentiate themselves?

By telling a story. In this session, students will learn how a core story will help recruit new members that best fit in an organization by aligning a chapter’s story with an individual’s story. Students will learn the elements of a great story and learn how to share it in a way that’s not a sales pitch or disingenuous in order to attract more of the right kinds of members.

Evaluating a Chapter or Council: Look at the Little things First Nautilus 1 | Leadership Development | Program #009

We will review seven real-life chapters and councils and let the audience evaluate and tell us what can and should be change and improved.

Navigating Conflict

or make a difference in a place where they are sorely needed?

Nautilus 2 | Leadership Development | Program #012

In a time of blow ups and bad attitudes, we often find ourselves avoiding conflict. However, research points directly to people being happy when disagreements are handled, problems are solved and issues are addressed. In this session, you will learn how to identify your personal style of conflict and how to address disputes with a lowered heart rate and a steady voice. You will gain an understanding of how to address competitive people and those who avoid conflict at all cost. Finally, you will learn how to create a simple opening statement to get a resultsoriented conversation started. Get ready to navigate with true confidence.

At some point, someone made a choice that put them in front of your judicial board. Chances are it was a poor choice. How does that conversation go? What kind of sanctions do they get? Did they lose another social event? How about another fine or more service hours? And how’s that working for the chapter? Let’s take a look at reframing how your judicial board interacts with members to create developmental results all based on the member’s choices.

Let ME, Define ME! Debunking Misconceptions of the LGBT Community Seabreeze 2 | Program #021

Have you ever been stereotyped based on your affiliation or council? Have you encountered people who had misconceptions of fraternity/sorority life? Now imagine how someone would feel if assumptions were being made about their sexual orientation or gender identity?

It is not uncommon for many individuals to develop false judgments of the queer community, which can be perpetuated by the media or stories from family and peers.

Stereotyping prevents individuals from defining who they are for themselves, and creates unconscious and conscious expectations and limitations for individuals. This session explores many of today’s stereotypes associated with the queer community in efforts to help provide clarity on the community and provide ways fraternities and sororities can actively challenge stereotyping of queer prospective and current members.

RBC: The Chapter Recruitment Plan

Moral Dilemmas and The Walking Dead

Learn the proven recruitment structure that has doubled and tripled chapters in only a semester! These 10 steps are guaranteed to provide success for you just as it has for thousands of other chapters. Real recruitment isn’t about “stalking” freshmen we don’t know, but it is about targeted networking with men and women we should call sisters and brothers. Our system of values-based, year-round recruitment emphasizes building authentic relationships with high-quality students on your campus. Quality and quantity are not mutually exclusive—learn how to get both!

It’s inevitable. There will come a time when your morals are tested. There will come a time when you will be faced with choices that could mean success or failure for the human race… or at least your fraternity and sorority community.

This session will take a look at the hit series The Walking Dead and lessons that can be applied to your community or your own leadership style. It’ll be a good lesson for your braaaiiiinnnss…

Don’t Do It By Yourself: Let NPC Partner with You Nautilus 1 | Council Management | Program #023

Let’s talk about College Panhellenic and campus documents— whether it’s a standards program, a relationship statement, an accreditation, or award application, NPC wants to be informed and involved with the process of writing and reviewing these documents. This step-by-step discussion on the NPC document review process will allow participants to understand the rationale behind the process and to receive suggestions on what content is of concern to the NPC member groups. Real-life examples will be discussed in an effort to paint a clear picture surrounding this topic.

out & greek keynote Shane Windmeyer What’s Your Gay Point Average?

Harbor Ballroom II Program #111 It is time to take the ultimate test–what’s your Gay Point Average? Learning about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) issues does not have to be divisive or difficult on campus. In fact, college students today need to understand why having a high Gay Point Average is an important aspect of diversity and preparation for success in life—at home, the workplace and places of worship. And, believe it or not, sometimes straight people actually have a higher Gay Point Average than a Grade Point Average, and that’s okay. Windmeyer personally shares the challenges confronting LGBT youth and challenges every person to play an active role in creating safer communities where everyone can thrive. The importance of straight allies can never be underestimated as young LGBT people struggle with their sexual and gender identities.

Marina 2 | Leadership Development | Program #027

Hey Superman, take off your cape. Hey Miley, put your tongue back in your mouth. Hey sorority and fraternity leaders, put away your ego. In this session, students will be asked to think about leadership differently by considering this concept: authentic leadership is about using your experiences, your shortcomings and lessons learned to make yourself appear more human to your brothers and sisters.

In this manner, you earn far more respect and admiration than you would from trying to be a leader who is a flawless hero. In turn, the bonds you form in your fraternities and sororities are tighter and the greater the influence you can have on one another.

What will they think of me if I wear this? Should I eat pizza or salad? If I don’t say yes, he’ll think I’m a prude. It’s easy to feel intimidated by the interactions and expectations of our external lives. We’ll turn the focus internally as Amber teaches you how to focus on the most important relationship of all—your relationship with yourself. Along with this important relationship comes greater respect for your body.

This highly practical presentation will help do just that.

Amber offers specific skills to foster that relationship— things like what your body is telling you from that headache, what your anxiety may really mean, how to say no and feel good about it, and how to be comfortable in your own skin.

The Five Dysfunctions of a Council: How to Combat Them and Build a Successful Team Marina 2 | Council Management | Program #032

Do you ever wonder why your exec board is filled with great leaders but you are not a stronger group? Leaders are always ready to hit the ground running and do so much in their short amount of time that time passes before they realize they’re just a collection of individuals instead of a unified team. Based on Patrick Lencioni’s The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, this session focuses on understanding that teamwork is the primary focus to any organization’s success. You will leave with an understanding of the dysfunctions that stop the growth of a team, how to combat these issues, how to develop initiatives to build a strong team, and how to maintain that positive culture over time.

We all have our impressions of other organizations on campus, both positive and negative. In this roundtablestyle session, we will confront our impressions of other organizations on campus and learn how to move past those to work together as a community. As fraternities and sororities we are oftentimes asked to partner with other organizations on campus to put on events. Come prepared to share your ideas, talk about what works well on your campus, and get new insight on what your campus can be doing next to bring the entire campus community together.

This interactive session will not only breakdown the stereotypes of various student organizations; it will build up a community based on collaboration and respect.

Dynamic Recruitment for Sororities: How the Best of the Best are Growing in Quantity and Quality

Nautilus 2 | Intake/Membership Recruitment | Program #037

Growing in quantity and quality is not about blind luck.

There’s a strategic, intentional, and holistic approach to growth. The best universities, businesses, and organizations in the world don’t wait for high-quality candidates to come to them. They consistently and strategically build a large network to selectively choose from throughout the year— whether formally through a large process or informally hand-selecting them. The best sorority chapters and communities are doing the same. For 10 years, Phired Up Productions has studied high-performing businesses, academic institutions, and sororities. The best of the best have some core philosophies in common that consistently result in high quantities of high quality people trying to get in. We’ll teach you exactly what they’re doing to attract, recruit, and select high quantities of high quality candidates.

Discussion will surround common issues that occur when separation doesn’t exist and common obstacles when attempting to collaborate. Come to this session ready to solve these boundary issues once and for all.

The IFC’s Role in Fraternity Recruitment

It’s My Right Not to Tell!

The Interfraternity Council on a campus is a unique governing body that must balance advocacy, collaboration, education, and accountability with individual chapters’ desires for independent operations. Much of this comes to a head during recruitment. This program will discuss the role of the IFC in fraternity recruitment on campus. The IFC has the power to address the big issues of recruitment (alcohol, women, and academic issues), but too often, IFCs choose not to. This program will discuss how to deal with those issues and maintain an open, natural, free-market approach to recruitment. Additionally, the session will discuss how the IFC can positively support their fraternities’ recruitment efforts through effective public relations efforts, pre- and post- evaluation, and a focus on building community.

Jason Hinson-Nolen, North-American Interfraternity Conference, jason@nicindy.org

As today’s society becomes more accepting and supportive of individuals within the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community, more individuals are becoming more comfortable with disclosing or “coming out” regarding their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Even many of today’s politicians, entertainers, and professional athletes are breaking barriers by “coming out” regarding their identities, and are revered by most of society. In many cases, “coming out” is often applauded by society; however, negative stigmas are increasingly being placed on individuals who refuse to disclose or “come out of the closet” regarding their sexual or gender identity. This section will discuss the rights individuals have to not share their sexual orientation or gender identity and the potential harms of forcing someone “out of the closet.”

Cool People Care: Saving the World With Your Day Job

Global Engagement: Sorority Communities Impacting Girls Education Worldwide

An interactive presentation that centers around the idea of social entrepreneurship, this program is perfect for students who have the ambitious goal of not just making a difference through their chapters, but who one day are searching for a career that changes the world. Led by social entrepreneur Sam Davidson, students will learn the key principles of a social enterprise, hear about success stories in the field, and begin to plan a career after college that helps others.

Best of all, all content is immediately applicable on a college campus, helping students and their chapters increase their philanthropic impact to the best of their abilities.

Most sororities were founded in the 19th century because of very real obstacles to women achieving a college education.

Sorority founders bound together fiercely to fight for their right to education. Today, more than 160 years later, sorority communities across the U.S. are engaged in a new global humanitarian effort to remove barriers to education for girls in the developing world. This movement by sorority women has had an impact in 15 countries on 4 continents in just 3 years. This session will expose participants to the critical issues of impoverished and oppressed women around the world and a national movement by sorority women to positively impact our global community by removing barriers to education for girls through the Circle of Sisterhood.

Hazing: Where Chapters Go to Die

Nautilus 2 | Fraternal Values | Program #055

Those who believe in hazing use 11 arguments that focus upon earning your letters, proving yourself, and bonding with members, especially pledges. Let’s cut through emotion and tradition and look at facts. If we do, we find hazing produces the exact opposite of what we say it does.

We’ll look at changing traditions and challenging beliefs in this session along with a number of actual cases in which chapters were closed.

Success is not about what you know. It’s not even about who you know; it’s about who you are connected with.

How Competition is Killing Your Sorority Nautilus 4 | Fraternal Values | Program #058

When we join a sorority, we are promised from our ritual and sisters that we will develop true friendship, leadership skills, and be conficence because of our experience, but this is not happening. Competition, gossip, and self-esteem get in the way of our sororities living up to their full potential.

What can we do to restore true sisterhood and the purpose of our founding as organizations? How can Social Excellence and meaningful conversations change the course of our current sorority state? We will explore what we do to hurt each other as sorority women. We will also discuss how teaching your community confidence, true sisterhood, and Social Excellence is the answer to your sorority’s problems.

There are a growing number of students that to do not fit the stereotypical or even the legal definition of “male” and “female.” Title IX, NCAA, and campus and state policies do not always have a clear definition or procedure to determine action steps for organizations. As single-sex or singlegendered organizations, we need to discuss recognizing gender identity in our membership selection practices and how transgender potential members, members, and alumni may impact each organization.

Branding and Your Market

So Let ‘Em Sue Us

Starbucks is known for coffee, just like Nike is known for its swoosh. What is your fraternity or sorority known for at your school? Does it align with the values of your organization?

In this session you will discuss how your organization’s brand does or does not align with your values and learn techniques to help your chapter develop a strong brand.

You’ll also explore what students make up your market and learn strategies to attract high-quality members. Start building your legacy today by attracting new members with these great branding techniques!

Walking the Talk: Utilizing Our Creed as a Tool for Bystander Intervention Marina 5 | Fraternal Values | Program #061

Sexual violence is a growing area of concern on college campuses, yet many of us struggle to find avenues that are both comfortable and meaningful to prevent violence in our community. So how can we overcome this? As valuesbased organizations, we are called on not only to live out the mission of our personal values set, but also of our fraternity/ sorority often represented in our creed and the established standards for our organizations. Could the answer to intervening during high-risk situations be found in the language of our individual chapter creeds? This program will connect chapter creed language to active bystander behavior to provide attendees with the tools necessary to step in and prevent violence on campus.

Marina 3 | Risk Reduction and Management | Program #063

A direct byproduct of the emphasis we place upon standards and fraternal values has been a growing number of closed chapters, which has led to an increase in unrecognized or underground groups. How can our councils, communities, and campuses reduce the influence of these groups or work around them, especially at public institutions? There are many ways to minimize the effect of undergrounds. we will review those ways and talk about teamwork in closing a chapter to reduce the possibility of creating an underground.

out & greek keynote Kara Laricks Common Threads Harbor Ballroom II Program #114 Former fourth-grade schoolteacher Kara Laricks always told her students to be true to themselves. Finally, she took her own advice and pursued a career in fashion, winning NBC’s first season of Fashion Star. She designs androgynous clothing for men and women, inspired by her love of menswear and an avant-garde Japanese design aesthetic.

Best known for her hoodie scarves and collar-andties, Laricks puts a spin on what is deemed traditional women’s fashion. She considers her partner, Melissa, to be her biggest supporter because she encouraged her to make fashion her full-time job.

As a sorority woman and an out lesbian, Laricks is the perfect speaker for challenging gender norms and bringing together the fraternity/sorority and LGBT communities. Laricks inspires student leaders to action and encourages everyone to find their common threads.

Your Major Doesn’t Matter: What Employers Really Want and How to Be It Marina 6 | Life After College | Program #065

Research is telling us that top employers don’t really care much what your academic major is, just that you have a degree. They don’t really pay attention how good your GPA is or what school you went to either. What employers are really looking for from men and women coming out of college are leadership and social skills, the ability to engage in meaningful and thoughtful conversation, and a level of excellence in their social abilities. Well, that’s good news and that’s bad news–because as you may already have realized, you didn’t take a class called “Making Friends 101” in college.

College is just beginning, but there is a tremendous amount of pressure to get the very most out of the 48 months ahead.

You want to make responsible choices, but you also want to make friends, find a place where you belong, and put yourself on a path to success in your professional life. To be sure, there will be a ton of once in a lifetime experiences that make college so special, but you also realize that it’s not going to be so easy every step of the way. You have been saturated with information about the physical ramifications of drugs, alcohol and sex, but you haven’t heard enough positive messages about the emotional, spiritual, social and intellectual impact of their relationships. Knowing and respecting yourself is the first step in being capable of understanding and appreciating others in the campus community.

But we live and work in a world that can easily become individual and surface level. We all want to be known and cared for as individuals. We join organizations based on brotherhood and sisterhood, but sometimes our members feel disconnected and alone. If we develop true friendships, will our issues around alcohol abuse, disordered eating, hazing, loneliness, and the hook-up culture diminish? Join us as we explore how to lead, live, teach and care from a place of lifetime friendship.

Chapters advertise themselves like the nutritional facts on a box of cereal, and women choose a sorority hoping the box matches the contents. But how often does sorority marketing on the outside match how the sorority functions on the inside? Participants will learn to accurately assess their chapter and honestly market their organizations to women going through the recruitment process to help improve retention and chapter operations. This session aims to equip sorority leaders with the necessary tools to evaluate whether the contents and marketing of their chapters are congruent. By establishing congruency and authentic marketing, participants will learn the tools to improve not only recruitment but retention, but to make a more fulfilling experience.

This presentation will explore how organizations can improve their chapter cultures by discussing gender, language, academic goals, and organizational values to create positive living-learning, fraternal environments.

Leading with Character: Challenges with Prescription Drug Use Marina 6 | Health and Wellness | Program #074

The issue of prescription drug abuse within a fraternity/ sorority chapter is taboo, especially with the seemingly acceptable advent of prescription drug abuse and other “non-illicit” drugs. This often leaves chapter leaders without practical options to identify abuse, let alone confront it.

This program will focus on dynamic group discussions with fraternity/sorority leaders regarding the challenges inherent with confronting the issue of prescription drug abuse. A review of new media will provide a foundational opportunity to share experiences, real-world scenarios, and solution-based discussions. Student leaders will be challenged to think outside of their traditional organizational roles to identify campus and community support. Attendees will be empowered by their organizational values to implement strategies within their chapters.

What you do not realize (and maybe you do) is that all of the knowledge, successes, and failures that they have accumulated will also be graduating with them, and little to no information will be passed down to the next generation of leaders. Sadly, this happened to me. Without effective succession plans we are setting up our new council/chapter leaders to fail. Let’s focus on the future and make sure our organizations do better after the leaders have transitioned.

Nautilus 2 | Membership Recruitment | Program #076

Sorority recruitment counselors might be the most important and integral part of a successful sorority recruitment process. These positions should be one of the most significant and coveted positions within our sorority communities attracting our very best sorority leaders. All too often, these positions are a way for sorority women to“get out” of recruiting or serve as a means to impact their own chapter’s recruitment success. Regardless of why women are choosing to become recruitment counselors, you have the power to impact the culture of this integral role in a positive way. Taking a more intentional and strategic approach in the recruitment, selection, training, and expectations of recruitment counselors can transform sorority recruitment counselors into a role of significance.

We’ll give you specific examples, tools, and strategies to help you build a Dynamic Recruitment counselor team, year after year, for your community.

Collaborating

We are presented with thousands of thoughts, images, ideas, and facts each and every day. From time to time, one creates a big spark in us, and we are compelled to create change in our life. However, when we are passionate about something new, we often struggle to get others involved with the same level of excitement, passion, and energy. This course will walk you through the simple steps of having a great idea and sharing it, getting others involved and committed, and making the change happen. Take the best ideas from AFLV West back to your campus and make change happen!

Student leaders within the fraternity/sorority community have opportunities to work with a wide variety of partners: their chapter advisors, campus fraternity/sorority advisor, and inter/national headquarters staff and volunteers. In this session we will provide insight to student leaders on how to create a positive and more effective relationship with their advisors, campus, and inter/national organization. Sometimes it can feel like there are a lot of different instructions and information coming from each.

Some organizations worry about the role of their advisors or “nationals.” These men and women are not the enemy— they are your greatest ally. Come find out why!
