AFLV Central/NBGLC 2010 Conference Book

The Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values Central Fraternal & National Black Greek Leadership Conference

Conference Program Book

2010 St. Louis, Missouri

Develop. Lead. Achieve.

Welcome: On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Staff, and the many volunteers of AFLV, welcome to St. Louis for the inaugural AFLV/NBGLC conference! We hope this opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with fraternity and sorority members throughout the country will be beneficial, not only to you personally, but also to your chapter and Fraternal Community.

This conference offers pathways and hot topics that cover a range of leadership topics, as well as issues that impact the leadership and structure of our Fraternal community. Please make every effort to visit with our conference faculty; they are more than willing to share their experience.

The 2010 conference has drawn attendees from more than 25 states to enhance skills and knowledge while becoming effective leaders. Also in attendance are international/national and province officers, as well as professional staff from many fraternities and sororities.

Please take this opportunity to let them know how they can help your chapter/council.

Another important aspect of the conference is the opportunity to interact with businesses that serve the fraternal market. Please take time to wander through the exhibit hall and introduce yourself to our Associate Members who have traveled a long distance to share their products and services with you. These individuals and companies are a very important part of our conference. Many of them are providing the educational content of the meeting, and several are major sponsors of the event. Please thank them for their time, energy, and financial investment.

The conference staff hopes that you will take advantage of this conference experience by learning new leadership techniques, discussing personal ideas, and meeting peers and professionals in the Fraternal community. Take advantage of all this conference has to offer and have a great time! Do not hesitate to let us know how we can make your experience more enjoyable.

If you wish to make a general announcement, the deadline is 12:00 noon the previous day. Announcements should be submitted in writing to the conference headquarters office in the Grand Registration Area.

Emergencies & Medical Assistance The Emergency Information Card completed by each registrant will be on file with the AFLV/NBGLC Conference Staff should the need arise. Please report all injuries and illnesses to the hotel security department through the hotel operator, as well as contacting a senior conference staff member.

Hotel Information

Check In and Check Out

Check In time is at 3:00 pm. You will be able to leave your luggage at the Bellman’s Station if you

arrive early. Check out time on Sunday is 12:00 noon. If extra time is needed, make

arrangements directly with the hotel by calling the front desk.

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

Tipping Be courteous to hotel staff at all times as they contribute to making our conference experience excellent. Tipping is not necessary for the meals included in your conference registration fee. At other times, tipping is at your discretion, although a minimum of 15% is recommended. For Bell Service, please tip $2.00 per bag depending on the size and weight of each bag.

Conference Facts: Hotel Security It is also important that you know that during these times of heightened security, the hotel is doing everything it can to insure you have a safe and enjoyable stay. Should an emergency arise, please dial the operator from any house phone. This goes directly to the hotel Security Department who will dispatch the appropriate people to the scene.

Lost and Found Please check with the hotel security staff or the AFLV/NBGLC conference headquarters office located in the Grand Registration area for lost and found items.

Meals The undergrduate conference registration includes the Friday Affiliation Luncheon, Saturday’s lunch and the Saturday Banquet. The professional registration fee includes the Saturday’s Professionals’ Lunch. 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 conference headquarters.

Meeting Locations Meeting rooms are split between the Renaissance Grand Hotel and the America’s Center. Please refer to the schedule and cross reference the floor diagrams in the back of this book to find your meeting room.

Nametags Nametags must be worn at all times. Nametags are your admission ticket to all conference events: education sessions, general sessions, meals, and all special sessions. If you lose your nametag you will be charged a $40 replacement fee.

Promptness Please arrive to the educational sessions early or when the session is scheduled to begin. This will help the presenter and the conference staff make the most of everyone’s time. Time is allowed between sessions to ask questions, get presenter contact information, etc. Seating capacity is limited which is another reason to plan ahead and arrive early!

Parking Parking arrangements are to be made individually with the hotel. The special parking rate for 2010 conference attendees is $13.00 per car per day with in and out privileges. If you have questions, contact the hotel front desk.

Questions Questions should be directed to any member of the Conference Committee. They are easily identified by their nametags.

Registration Delegates should register with the hotel BEFORE registering with AFLV/NBGLC. Conference registration is located in the Grand Registration area. All participants in AFLV/NBGLC educational sessions must be registered for the conference and must wear their nametag at all times.

AFLV Central/NBGLC 2010

Standards Policy: To ensure that that the AFLV Central and National Black Greek Leadership Conference continues to maintain a reputation for excellence and high standards, we have high expectations of appropriate behavior at the conference. In an effort to minimize hotel security involvement, behavior standards will be monitored and enforced by the AFLV/NBGLC Conference Standards Team.

While the Head Delegates are responsible for the members of his or her delegation, it is expected that each conference participant read, understand and follow conference behavior rules as well as appropriate federal, state and local laws. The Head Delegate will be held accountable for the actions of members within his or her delegation.

The members of the Conference Staff expect all conference attendees to respect the property and the rights of the hotel and it’s 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 State of Missouri apply to all in attendance.

After one warning, individuals violating conduct expectations will be asked to leave the conference and the hotel. Appropriate Head Delegates, university officials, and national fraternities/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 will be suspended from attending the AFLV/NBGLC Conference in 2011. 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.

The AFLVSilent Auction

Shhhhhhhh......

It’s a Silent Auction!

A silent auction doesn’t literally mean you need to be silent, but the bidding process is different than traditional auctions. Take time to peruse the silent auction displays and if you want to win an item, write your wager on the bidding sheet... THAT’s the silent part! Since the auction is... well... silent, the key is to continually check on your item and continue to outbid your competitors. This isn’t Ebay folks! Waiting until the last second isn’t the way to play the game. So...

Bid High & Bid Often!

Shawn met Gwenn. They fell in love.

Shawn has HIV. Gwenn doesn’t. And they keep it that way.

While attending James Madison University’s graduate program, Gwenn volunteered for an AIDS Service Organization and soon thereafter met Shawn.

Diagnosed with HIV as a child, Shawn Decker faced discrimination early in life.

In the 6th grade, he was expelled when his school learned of his HIV status. He navigated the dating world in high school with a secret he guarded tightly until the age of 20 when he went public by creating one of the first HIV-specific blogs.

Since 2000, Shawn and Gwenn have been educating together, using their relationship as a way to talk about the issues of sexual health. By combining humor and candor, they’ve successfully engaged tens-of-thousands of college students, and have shared their story with millions of people through Cosmopolitan Magazine, MTV, BBC and HBO films.

Shawn’s memoir, My Pet Virus, was published by the Penguin Group.

When Shawn and Gwenn met, they never thought their relationship would be an open book or a tool for HIV education. But that’s exactly what happened when the couple began

Confessions of a Corporate Recruiting Director Brad Karsh

Like many young people, Colleen Coffey was completely unprepared to cope with mental health struggles. She grew up in an environment that seemed to guarantee every success, yet privilege could not shield her from the exhausting struggle with multiple mental disorders.

In her program, Out of the Shadows: Talking Honestly About Mental Health, Colleen helps student audiences address their personal stigmas about mental disorders and mental health issues, and encourages them to examine how mental wellness impacts their lives. Students are encouraged to engage in meaningful, honest conversations about the prevalence of mental health issues with their friends and family.

Pathways: RESPONSE ABILITY Professionals’ Pathway

Mike Dilbeck, Beck & Company

Landmark 7

RESPONSE ABILITY, the groundbreaking program on bystander behavior and intervention, gives students the courage to stand up to bad behavior, promote dialogue, and work together to create a healthy college climate for all. This is a Level 1 Certification Program and includes a facilitated program demonstration (not including the viewing of the video). Each person who completes the program will be considered a Certified Level 1 Facilitator of the program, and will receive an expanded facilitator’s guide and certificate. Level 1 is the basic level that certifies someone to thoroughly facilitate the program to individual chapters, or a group of chapters in their campus or organization.

Note: This does not certify someone in being an “expert” in bystander behavior and intervention. This only certifies someone to facilitate the RESPONSE ABILITY educational program using the main video on the DVD and participants are required to come into the workshop having viewed at least the main video (either from the DVD or online at www.ResponseAbilityProject.com.) The length of this program does not provide the time to conduct any training in intervention options and skills; however, resources will be discussed.

Paper v. Pledge. Process v. Performance. Passion v. Purpose. This highly interactive and engaging workshop creatively addresses the “elephant in the room” that all Divine Nine Organizations must confront. The facilitator addresses this by creatively incorporating and blending music, Black History, audience participation and demonstrations, African traditions and customs and the mass media’s influences through pop culture to illustrate the mutation of a once legal pledge process that has manifested itself as an illegal underground hazing culture. Finally, the presenter outlines the current role and relevancy of the “Divine Nine” on today’s campuses (both PWI and HBCU) and outlines what members can do to help these organizations realign themselves with their original purposes and missions. Afterwards, the presenter, honestly and candidly answers any questions from the audience pertaining to BGLOs through a legal, cultural, and administrative context and presents viable alternatives for the future of these organizations.

The audience is challenged to care about “social justice” – reducing power, oppression, ethnocentrism, stereotyping, prejudice and discrimination. Students are asked to make personal judgments about these issues and recognize that the opportunity for change exists within each of us.

Greeks Fight Back!

AC 264

Chapter Finance and Collecting in a “Tough Economy”

Audience: ALL

Personal safety and self-defense expert, Erin Weed, believes the Greek community could save lives. In 2001, Erin’s sorority sister was murdered at Eastern Illinois University. It made her wonder...what if we joined together in a PROACTIVE way, to prevent violence before it ever happened in the first place?

This program educates Greek students about campus crime, and what they can do to keep themselves and the people they care about safe. Topics discussed include: how to trust intuition, ways to intervene as a bystander, activism ideas for creating a safe campus, the dangerous relationship between violence and alcohol, practical tips for avoiding all sorts of violence by living as a “bad victim” and finally how to fight back if necessary. That’s the fun part! The entire crowd stands up and learns simple and effective self-defense techniques that anyone can use, regardless of gender or size. Get ready to laugh, learn and inspire change on your campus!

Is your fraternity/sorority or fraternity and sorority community responsible? Do you hold yourself and your peers accountable for your actions? This session will empower leaders to examine their own accountability practices and equip participants with tools to reach accountability success. Through interactive activities and group discussions, this session will dive into a difficult topic not often discussed.

Frustrated? Is your Greek community held back by chapters who don’t “get it” and don’t care? Do you have people in your chapter who are there for the wrong reasons? Fighting?

Cliques? Apathy? Poor appreciation for ritual, service, scholarship? Well tell them to … Buy In or Get Out! Too often good leaders, and good chapters are not able to succeed because they are too busy cleaning up after the ones who just don’t get it. Fixing their problems, or fighting their negative image. Imagine how much more we could accomplish if they were part of the solution instead of always causing the problems.

Strengthen Your Community: How To Create an All-Greek Council AC 232

Audience: ALL

This session will provide participants with the tools they need to streamline the shared values of their fraternity and sorority community. Ideal for fraternity and sorority communities with three or more councils that are ready to strengthen communication, interfraternalism, diversity, education, and programming. Staff members and students will learn how to take concepts from Grand Valley State University’s Greek Life Council and adapt them to fit the needs of their own college/ university.

One of our most compelling challenges is the encouragement of student leadership. This type of leadership entails building relationships and communication with people who have divergent beliefs and values. Campus conversations about diversity are often messy, sensitive, and, for many, down right scary. How can we build effective personal relationships across differences when people are afraid and unable to talk to each other? This workshop will help students to expand their relationship- building skills by becoming more culturally self-aware, finding common ground, and by harnessing the benefits of living and learning in community with others.

Giving PNMs The Tools They REALLY Need During Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment AC 263

Audience: Panhellenic

The formal recruitment experience for Panhellenic sororities can be startling, stressful, and overwhelming to PNMs. At best, we have campuses where the least satisfied PNMs are underwhelmed by the sorority members they meet and opt out of sorority life before final bid matching. At worst, we have women who are devastated by their recruitment results.

Do PNMs really need to feel this way? How can we reduce these negative reactions? On every campus, we lack the opportunity for PNMs to receive training on developing relationships during sorority recruitment. On every campus, sorority members go through hours of advanced conversation and etiquette training before meeting those PNMs. This imbalance of preparation is part of the problem. Find out how you and your campus can implement various types of training options for your PNMs. This session is perfect for those who are strong advocates for PNMs. Sunday Tollefson, SureSister.com

You might just change the way you look at your responsibility as a member of a fraternity or sorority.

Audience: ALL

One of the greatest leadership challenges is fostering change within an organization. Fraternities and sororities are often particularly resistant to change, making the job of chapter and council leaders more difficult. Many of our members view change as a threat to “tradition” and therefore automatically detrimental to the organization. Introducing change within an organization or community can elicit fear of the unknown or stimulate visionary thinking and open up new possibilities. Learn why many change efforts fail within the Greek community and the steps to bring about successful change on your campus.

Beyond the Step Show: Authentically connecting with National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) Organizations AC 264

Audience: NBGLC

Affiliate organizations of the National Pan-Hellenic Conference are often seen as the organizations that step, stroll, and party; so students and campus professionals often work to connect with the organizations around those premises. “Beyond the Step Show” looks to allow the larger campus community to engage with the NPHC in a more genuine manner.

Participants will gain a brief understanding of the multiple facets of NPHC membership and how that impacts the increased social display as well as ways to move beyond collaborations of just the sometimes superficial, social nature.
