CENTRAL FRATERNAL & NATIONAL BLACK GREEK LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

2011

St. Louis, Missouri

Welcome: On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Staff, and the many volunteers of AFLV, welcome to St. Louis for the Central Fraternal Leadership Conference/National Black Greek Leadership 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 2011 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.

conference facts Alcoholic Beverages Alcoholic beverages may not be carried in hallways or elevators, and there will be no alcohol allowed in guests’ rooms. Any containers found will be confiscated and turned in to hotel security. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed at any CFL/NBGLC functions. The legal drinking age in the state of Missouri is 21 and is strictly enforced.

Award Recipients Please note those delegates and advisors wearing award recipient and/or finalist ribbons. They represent the councils which have been selected to receive awards at the Saturday night recognition banquet.

Please congratulate these individuals and ask about their outstanding programs.

Conduct The Head Delegates and Fraternity/Sorority Advisor will be responsible for the conduct of their school’s delegates. Please see CFL/NBGLC’s Standards Policy for more information.

Conference Dress Badge attire is appropriate for all sessions of the conference. The Saturday evening banquet attire is a coat and tie for men and semi-formal dress for women.

Daily Announcements All updates on conference activities will be announced in the first general session each day. 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.

Evaluations Evaluations will be sent electronically after the conference. Your input is important to us. Please take the time to complete the evaluation honestly as your feedback will help to improve future conferences.

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 and CFL/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 CFL/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 in place of the Student Luncheons. 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 2011 conference attendees is $14.00 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.

Quiet Hours 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. Violators will be reported to hotel security as well as the CFL/NBGLC Conference Staff.

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

standards policy To ensure that that all Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values 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.

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 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 will 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 by the staff. 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 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 will be in jeopardy.

Mike believes that college communities need to begin addressing damaging behavior by empowering those who see a problem, want to do something, but don’t. He provides tools for students to confront this harmful behavior.

Brian, our resident movie geek, uses the latest mainstream films to entertain and educate students about important topics impacting their campuses. His keynote exposes Hollywood’s truths and lies about fraternities and sororities.

Corey encourages students to chase the truly important things in life.

Students will leave his keynote with a better sense of what it takes to develop character, set priorities and gain a big-picture perspective.

keynote speakers Buy In or Get Out David Stollman Thursday, 7:00-8:30 pm Too often, good leaders and good chapters are not able to succeed because they are too busy cleaning up after the ones that 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 part of the problem?

David will say what you wish you could. Let him confront them in his funny, interactive and moving style.

His message will inspire those that want to care about the core values of Fraternity and Sorority Life – friendship, service, leadership and scholarship. He will challenge your members to embrace the best and get rid of the rest. It will touch on topics that range across all major issues facing today’s members.

RESPONSE ABILITY Mike Dilbeck Friday, 9:00-10:10 am “RESPONSE ABILITY” directly addresses so-called “bystander behavior” – those times when a person observes something, recognizes it to be problematic, but fails to intervene in a constructive way. Mike is helping students from all walks of campus life understand how seizing an opportunity to act can dramatically change their campus community.

In this challenging keynote, Mike reveals the barriers many of us feel when we consider whether or not to act. Using interactive methods, Mike gives audience members the skills and framework upon which to act when they see unhealthy or negative behavior among their peers, in their classes and on their campus.

keynote speakers Chasing Authentic Success Corey Ciocchetti Sunday, 9:15 - 10:30 am What are you shooting for? A big, impressive career? A big paycheck?

A dose of fame and notoriety? Like a greyhound, endlessly running, you can spend your life chasing artificial rabbits and going around in circles.

Or, you can make some decisions that will set you on a path to true happiness in your career and in your life.

Change or Die Dr. Bernard Franklin Saturday, 9:00 - 10:15 am In time, higher education leaders may say there ultimately is no need for same sex, same race Greek systems.

In order for the Greek system to survive and to satisfy this significant leadership demand, we need to develop higher expectations for our members and totally eliminate the negative behaviors. Yet more often than not, we won’t. Changing the negative behavior and raising the outcomes for our members isn’t just a huge challenge, it’s our most important challenge.

In this very personal leadership keynote, Corey challenges the audience to identify the “real rabbits” that potentially lie in their future. You can achieve amazing things in your life, but true happiness is best found by keeping things like relationships, character and contentment in mind along the way.

Dr. Bernard Franklin, President of Delta Upsilon International Fraternity will provide insight through his incredible knowledge and personal experience into what we need to change and how we can change—or we die!

special conference programs Pre-Conference Program: RESPONSE ABILITY Mike Dilbeck Thursday 1:00-5:00 pm Sponsored by Pi Beta Phi Most of the problems in the fraternity/sorority community involve bystanders—those who see or know about something “wrong” and do nothing, say nothing. The facilitator, through this program, gets to empower the 80% of our students who are not causing the problems but who are also not standing up to the 20% who are.

This is a Level I Certification Program, and each person who completes this program will receive an expanded facilitator’s guide and certificate. Level I is the basic level and certifies someone to thoroughly facilitate the program to individual chapters, or a group of chapters, on their campus, or in their fraternity/sorority.

special conference programs NBGLC/CFL Advisors Institute Saturday 10:45 - 5:30 AC 280 Program Abstract With the growth of Multicultural Greek letter organizations and the decline of the Black Greek Letter groups, campus administrators are faced with the many rewards and challenges associated with these groups. From recruitment, leadership development, risk management and liability concerns advising these groups are becoming more and more demanding and complex. This institute will provide greek advisors with best practices, program ideas and resources to work with cultural greek letter groups.

Goal The Advisor’s Institute is designed to educate Greek advisors, alumni members and Association staff on the rich history and issues that face cultural greek letter organizations. The Institute also seeks to network, explore and dialogue on issues that face advisors of these organizations as well as the expansion of Southeast Asian, Asian, Native and other culturally based Greek letter organizations.

The faculty of the Advisor’s Institute consists of several individuals in Greek life, but input from other advisors, and the discussion of “true life” stories and situations will serve as the groundwork for learning and finding solutions. Participation is highly encouraged and will be the foundation of the institute.

Presentation Overview The presenters will identify the various issues facing campus administrators and provide some rationale on why these organizations operate as they do. An interactive dialogue will take place to explore steps that can be taken to get more involvement from these organizations, address accountability and develop collaboration to proactively address issues that plague these groups.

Learning Outcomes Participants will have the opportunity to: • To dialogue and explore best practices with advising Cultural Greek letter organizations, and specifically on the topic of advising cultural Greeks as a non person of color.

• Explore and discuss the issues of accountability for multicultural fraternities and sororities and how accountability must be consistent in the entire Greek community.

• Discuss issues that face university administrators and share programs and procedures that will assist these organizations.

• Develop a network of professionals to answer questions and provide advice on working with these organizations.

• Discuss strategies on how to address hazing, chapter academic progress, liability issues and how we can best serve the interests of a diverse fraternity and sorority population.

• Introduce an action plan that may assist campus administrators respond to these students need.

featured speakers Reel Greek: Where Hollywood Boulevard Meets Greek Row Brian Johnson Majestic E Most fraternities and sororities were founded upon the exemplary principles of scholarship and achievement, service, and philanthropy; yet today, popular perception of Greeks is anything but!

If Not Us, Then Who? Let’s Rise!

Jess Pettit Majestic D WARNING: There will be no hand holding, silver spoons, or excuses permitted during this keynote. As a member of the fraternity and sorority community, Jessica has decided to claim her responsibility and utilize her elite status to actually dismantle oppression and leave the world a better place.

Brian’s keynote uses film clips from popular films like Old School, Animal House, Stomp the Yard and College (and many others) to explore the influence of Hollywood on how we view ourselves as members of the Greek community and how we interact within our community. You will be challenged to question what it really means to live in community with others, and to think critically about counteracting the negative public perceptions and promoting the true ideals of these organizations.

In the words of James Larkin, “the great appear great because we are on our knees. Let’s rise!” Not only do we have access to a college education which many do not, we have gained access to the elite of the elite and with this comes individual responsibility to serve. If the fraternal movement is truly about leadership, moral development, and service— then we have a lot of catching up to do.

pathways Reaching the People Who Matter To You: Simple Steps to Redefine Your Campus Image Public Relations Pathway Landmark 7

Is the exposure you’re getting really the exposure you want? Are you taking the smartest approach to managing the way your community views your chapter? Is your group’s campus image holding it back?

Dr. Tait Martin will teach pathway participants how to use the tools of marketing and PR to refocus their outreach efforts to foster a growing and energized organization. This isn’t your typical “public relations” approach. Tait uses years of experience as a communication and marketing professional to help student leaders understand how their group’s actions and image affect members, potential members, administrators and other students on campus. Participants will take away the ability to shape a positive campus brand, with an emphasis on effective language and the positive, proactive use of social networking tools.

Strategizing to Ensure Your Community’s Future Strategic Planning Pathway Landmark 5

You’re on a good path if your governing council has gone through a goal setting session for your leadership term. You’re on a strategic path if you plan with the long-view to ensure your fraternity/ sorority community’s future. This pathway is for council leaders who want to create and reach their vision for their community. It’s not for leaders who are satisfied with minor, incremental improvement.

During this session we will discuss and practice the importance of vision development, examine the trends affecting our work as leaders and discuss the elements of strategic planning. This pathway is for those who want their community to be relevant, responsive, and mission-driven.

pathways From 1776 to 2011 and Beyond: How Technology Will Impact the Future of Fraternities and Sororities Technology Pathway Majestic F

If this is the first time you are thinking about using social media for your chapter/council, where have you been? As Erik Qualman, founder of Socialnomics said, “We don’t have a choice on whether we do social media, the question is how well we do it.” How well does your chapter or council use social media?

In today’s global and technological culture, the options for reaching multiple constituencies with social media are always expanding. Using social media is not necessarily about catching up to the latest trend, but learning what works best for your chapter/council and adapting those tools to create a streamlined fraternity and sorority experience that is engaging, values-based, and innovative. Whether you are looking to improve recruitment efforts, connect with families and alumni or simply keep your council or organization on the same page, this is the pathway for you! We will explore the different social media opportunities that exist in applications like Twitter, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, YouTube and more. After this Pathway, will you be the pioneer from 1776 or the innovator for 2011?

Hazed & Confused Landmark 5-7 Within three months, two pledges from Erle Morring’s fraternity died. As a chapter and IFC officer, Erle knew changes were needed. The culture on his campus was so immersed in hazing and institutional alcohol abuse, he knew more deaths were imminent. With disturbing frankness, he tells of the lineups, the visitations, the spotlight and hotbox parties, the yelling, the cussing and the intimidation. By passionately sharing his amazing story, Erle draws the audience into the experiences that forever changed his view of fraternity and the values of Greek life.

The Life & Legacy of the Latino Greek Movement Landmark 2 With the Latin BOOM of the late 90’s affecting the world of entertainment, Latino/a students on college campuses have also created their own BOOM within Greekdom. On college campuses across the country, Latino Greek letter organizations (LGLOs) have expanded and established themselves as reputable organizations, diversifying Greek life. While new to the scene, LGLOs are expanding quickly, causing a lack of education for some councils, staff and students.

The purpose of this session is to introduce the history of LGLOs, to share the similarities and differences of these organizations, the Latin influence on these organizations and avenues of creating collaborative programming with other chapters and councils.

You spend a year pouring yourself into an organization through your position and then one day, you wake up and all the questions are directed at someone new ... so what happens next? Join a pair of headquarters staff members in a discussion about how to springboard from the leadership experience you’ve HAD into the next leadership experience you WANT! Shawn and Erika will also give you tips on how to empower those who take office after you so you can rest easier knowing they understand the vision you had for the organization or council. By the time you are finished you will feel comfortable letting go of one position and focusing your attention on your future as a leader Erika Breedlove, Pi Beta Phi Shawn Eagleburger, Pi Beta Phi

Connecting “Majorities” to the Multicultural Community Majestic D Around the country colleges and universities are trying to “figure out” this phenomenon we call diversity. Most institutions state that “diversity is everyone’s responsibility,” which sounds good, but is everyone prepared for the challenges that such work brings? Sorority and fraternity leaders (students and professionals) are being asked to increase diversity within their ranks. Traditionally, however, engaging with diversity and inclusion often means focusing on the “minority,” with little to no attention paid to the predominant groups and the opportunities they have to create change. This session is meant for majorities who desire to move beyond surface sensitivity to building authentic relationships and critical engagement with diversity issues. We will emphasize self awareness, understanding our own identities and methods to practice real multicultural inclusion-including those who are White, male, heterosexual, American, affluent and Christian. All are diverse and all are welcome!

Majestic E Why are some PNM’s and chapters so coveted, while others seem to pass through the process virtually unnoticed?

What is the tipping point for your chapter when deciding on whom to actively recruit or for a PNM to prefer you? Quite often, the primary difference between someone or something being remarkable versus ordinary is performing a common task uncommonly well! It may be as simple as being a bit braver for five minutes longer, or committing to a lifestyle whereby you never assume that what is present in your life is a right or a privilege, but an honor.

The Complete Plan for Sorority Council Recruitment Success AC 260 Many sorority community leaders manage the formal recruitment process well, and even do some great advertising beforehand. But that is like the person that can cram for finals really well. No matter how hard you work, you can never achieve your true potential. True success comes from the council encouraging and coordinating their own efforts with that of chapters who are effectively doing their job all year long. This plan is more than sales skills and skit ideas. It involves a sophisticated social media and branding campaign, effective compilation and use of market research, ongoing education initiatives and more.

Dynamic Recruitment for Sororities AC 264

Fraternity/sorority recruitment has largely been portrayed as an exclusive one-way process—trying to figure out which candidate(s) will make us look better, what can they do for us—rather than as a mutual decision-making process. This session will examine the two types of “choosers” (those who already know and understand this way of life and those whose decisions are largely based on multiple extraneous conditions) and how they come to the decision about joining a fraternal organization. Developing a recruitment plan for both types is essential for successful membership growth. It is no longer possible to just post a flyer or poster about your organization and expect potential members to line up at your door.

Good recruitment happens 365 days a year in a very consistent and strategic way. Recruitment happens everyday regardless of whether chapters give bids one time a year or all year long. Recruitment happens everyday regardless if chapters only participate in a formal recruitment process or do continuous recruitment both semesters. Recruitment is everyone’s responsibility - Panhellenic officers and chapters.

Dynamic Recruitment is the process we use to help sorority women conceptualize what good year round recruitment is. It centers around a names list – a list of every non-Greek woman they know and builds based on how we add more names to the list (make new friends) and take names off the list (turn our friends into members).

No, you water down your organization by bringing in people who don’t believe in your cause.

Lets talk about casting a bigger net, moving outside of our comfort zone and finding people who are qualified and interested in our organization. We will talk strategies on how to do this, and more importantly how to get your members and alumni to also agree.

Sam Centellas, OutSight Consulting

How Values Changed Our Recruitment A quota of 8, reached by only 3 of the 4 Panhellenic sororities, was where we were sitting in 2006.

Chapters had not been able to obtain total through formal recruitment for years and chapter sizes were drastically different. Learn how a series of values based conversations surrounding our recruitment process, Rho Gamma education program and potential new member training allowed us to make critical changes needed to improve the Panhellenic community. In 2010, a quota range of 31-40 with 100% retention of potential new members through the recruitment process has led to conversations about increasing chapter total and expansion for the first time in 55 years.

Money Management for Greeks: Chapter, Council and Personal Finances (Part II) Benton

Gleedership: Are you a Sue or a Shue?

What are EXCUSES? Taking NPHC to the next level

2 out of every 3 people who read this have a mistake on their credit report that is not their fault. How do you know if that means you? Budgets don’t work for most people, but most don’t know why. In this high energy presentation, licensed financial advisor Peter Bielagus will answer these questions and more.

From budgets, to bargain hunting, investing to credit scores Peter will show you how to put more money in your pockets today. If your personal finances aren’t in order, you’ll never be able to get your chapter and council finances in order either. Practical answers to the problems organizations face every day like: Why are we never on budget? This member won’t pay their dues, but other members don’t seem to care. What do I do? How do I balance friendship and money?

DUI: A Powerful Lesson Landmark 4 Just months from graduation, Mark and four of his fraternity brothers headed to Florida on spring break.

Each night, one brother would serve as the designated driver. On the final night, they decided that the least drunk among them would drive home, and Mark ended up with the keys. The next morning three of the men were dead, and Mark lay in the hospital critically injured and facing three felony counts of manslaughter. Mark shares the bad decisions that changed his life and ended the lives of his friends.

This is a program you will never forget.

7 Leadership Principles for Exponential Times Landmark 5-7 Have you noticed how dramatically different the world is today compared to the world your parents inherited and worked in? Imagine being in class and not having the ability to text your roommates to see what the plans are for the evening. Or, having to schedule an appointment with your professor because you cannot email them a question. An emerging global community is changing exponentially and requiring a new set of skills, which includes values, perspectives and attitudes. Bernard will provide session participants with 7 key leadership principles to support our rapidly changing world.

Think You’re Man Enough? Try Walking in Your Brother’s Shoes Lindell/Pershing Ever talked to your brothers about bullying, heterosexism, mental health issues or drug abuse/ misuse? How about body image, family issues, or disabilities? Well why haven’t you then? Today’s college students are bringing with them a variety of backgrounds and back stories unlike we have seen with any previous generation. As fraternity men we are obligated to adapt and understand differences to make our organizations and chapters stronger. In this session we will emphasize understanding each others values through our differences while getting to know and support our brothers. We will focus on developing a foundation for understanding the tough issues and leave you with the resources to make a positive change in your chapter or council. Come to this session to find out about emerging issues facing today’s male college students and how you and your chapter and council can serve as a resource for this growing population of students.

Collaboration – A Great Way to Build Campus Relationships Majestic A It is common for fraternities and sororities to cosponsor events with other Greek organizations. This is a great way to foster positive relations. However, expanding your reach outside of the Greek system and creating a collaborative relationship with other organizations or campus departments can have many positive benefits as well. This session will help you understand the difference between collaboration and co-sponsorship and show you the process and benefits of developing collaborative ventures throughout your campus. This session will give you the chance to create a plan for more collaboration and will give you ideas on how to implement this plan.

June 5-8, 2011

Mohican Resort & Conference Center Between Columbus & Cleveland, OH We intend to bring about compelling questions, powerful thinking, and revolutionary action to transform and bring relevance to the fraternal movement.

We plan to lead and chart an intentional course that inspires all of us to act entrepreneurial in thought, word, & deed.

We call upon fraternities and sororities to become the most trusted organizations.

This isn’t a think tank. It’s an action tank.

How Are You Forwarding the Values Conversation on Your Campus?

On most campuses there are members of fraternities and sororities who WANT to forward the values conversation within their community, but don't know where or how to begin. The Fraternal Values Society exists to provide a home for that conversation, to provide voice to the values movement, and to create a sustainable network within each fraternal community for those who want their fraternal experience to be representative of the founding fraternal/ethical values of our organizations.
