VP STANDARDS MADELINE MICELI
Woohooo I don’t know about you but I AM OBSESSED WITH OUR NEW PC!!! However, it is extremely important that we remember there is absotively positutely ZERO DRINKING with the new members. This is their dry period. You are not allowed to pre game dry mixers with them and you are not allowed to go out with them until after the dry period is over. In addition, your attendance at the degree ceremonies is mandatory. Chapter attendance is, as always, mandatory as well. If you cannot attend either the degree ceremonies or chapter, you are required to email me at kdchapterexcuse@gmail.com by the Thursday at 11:59 pm before chapter. Seniors are allowed two unexcused absences and all other members are allowed one unexcused absence. All members are allowed one late excuse. Please contact me early on in the semester (like this week) if chapter attendance is going to be an issue.
Way too excited for the semester ahead <3

Appointed Officer Announcements
Magazine Chair Steph Kleiner
Hey guys! Only 10 more days of annoying magazine reminders. Each sister must sell at least $40 worth of magazines; this requirement is for every sister on or off campus. $40 worth of profits by January 31st.
Setting up your account
1. Head to http://www.efundraising.com/OmegaChi and click join
2. Fill out your information and click ‘join the campaign'
3. Goal: $40 or more
4. Give a brief description of your campaign- Kappa Delta Chapter House Fund
5. Explore the page & spread the word!
The magazines are available for a huge variety of people: a cooking magazine for your grandma, a seventeen magazine for your little sister, a fitness magazine for your friend… the opportunities are endless. Also- renewals of current subscriptions count toward the $40 too.
Tips for Selling
1. Emails! These are great for grandparents and aunts and uncles and cousins and neighbors and your old piano instructor and that really cool professor of yours. Explain what the campaign is and who it will benefit, and encourage them to make a purchase.
2. Social media! Share on Facebook & Twitter & Pinterest etc. I understand that you don’t wanna be that annoying person, but it can be really easy when you present it as a cool, cheap opportunity for your friends to get magazine subscriptions.
Take advantage of this opportunity, otherwise you will be charged $40 from your bursar.
AOT, Steph
Academic Excellence Alexis Cousins
Hey everybody!
Now that classes are started, let's find out if KD's are in your big lecture classes, by filling out or viewing the google doc here:
You can also use the spreadsheet just to simply recommend spring courses you took last year.
As of last night, we have SO MANY AWESOME NEW MEMBERS but they probably do not know much about the rest of us! So in order to fix this (academically) please fill out this spreadsheet stating your major, if you TA, and list your career goal, so PC '15 can easily contact you (or vice versa) for academic or career advice!
Thank you so much and I am so excited to finally be the Academic Excellence Chair!!
AOT,
Alexis
Health and Wellness Chairs Olivia Roche, Sarah Lam, and Taylor Coutts

Please make sure to reach out to Olivia (oar5), Sarah (sl772), or Taylor (trc76) if you have any questions or concerns related to Health and Wellness or if you want to be directed to some of the resources Gannett offers!
AOT,
Olivia, Sarah, and Taylor
Socials
Heyyyyy. Welcome back!! YAYYY NEW MEMBERSSS!
We are excited to reveal our social schedule for this weekend BUT FIRST…
There are restrictions because of the new members so listen close:
NO ALCOHOL AT DRY EVENTS. NO ALCOHOL BEFORE DRY EVENTS. NO ALCOHOL AT ALL RELATED TO DRY EVENTS. Do not break this rule. There are major implications. Take it from me… I got kicked out of the paint mixer as a new member… (oops…)
New members CANNOT KNOW about our wet events. It does not matter if they are your best friend, potential little/littlest, or whaaatever. These wet events are SECRET.
Please try to attend as many dry events as possible. Make the new pledge class feel welcome! AKA DO NOT leave events early! It happened to my PC at a dry event and it SUCKED. The bars will still be open at midnight when the dry event ends. Please facilitate friendships between sisters as well as with the fraternity members. .
Thursday: SIG EP - 10 PM - NO RIDES - UNREGISTERED OPEN PARTY - New Years Eve
Friday: DKE - 10 PM - NO RIDES - UNREGISTERED OPEN PARTY - Tour De Franzia
Saturday: LAMBDA - 10 PM - rides from KD and Schwartz - DRY PAINT PARTY
Sunday: SAMMY - 10 AM - rides from Schwartz - DRY BRUNCH
REMINDER: We have formal chapter at 12:30 this day. This means that new members should NOT come back to the house after the brunch. Allow them to go back to their dorms/apartments and then they can come back to the house for set meetings later!!!
****We need three sobers for every event or we cannot have the event. All sobers must write their name in the google doc so that we know who is sobering and how many. Thank you to our awesome sober monitor volunteers! If you change your mind about sobering, please find a replacement! There have been far too many instances of girls simply not finding replacements and not attending the event. Remember that attending mixers is a great way to hang out with your sisters AND earn 2 points!!!
Don’t forget about sober driving also! Leave your name and phone number in the sober column!
