Delta Zeta has:

President

Vice-President of Membership

Vice-President of New Member Education

Vice-President of Programs

Secretary

Treasurer

Academics Chair

There are a whole bunch more chairmanships, but I put academics chair on my list because she's included on the executive board. All those positions are on exec. Our chapter doesn't have a ritual chair, as far as I know. Ritual "things" generally fall under the jurisdiction of the VP of Programs and the Guards. This may just be the way my chapter does it, however, since we are rather small. Also, it's the VP of Membership that can take over for the President if necessary.

For Chi Omega:

President
VP (took over for Pres, but was also in charge of Scholarship)
Secretary (took roll and minutes)
Treasurer
New Member Educator
Personnel (I guess this would be our ritual person, she coordinated initiation and such, but she was also the "standards" rep)
Recruitment Chairman
Panhellenic Delegate
House Manager

All the above are officially slated and voted on for Executive Board. We also slated a Social chair, but I'm not sure that was a "national" thing or not.

On exec we have

Pres
Chapter Life VP
Public Relations VP
Financial VP
Programs VP- takes care of our national sorority programs.
Secretary - we combine recording and corr. bc I have a small chapter
Membership vp - she is in charge of recruitmen

new member orietation chair is in charge of the new members education

To expand these are the officers on Exec:

President = President
Chapter Live VP = Risk Managment Officer (and next in line to the Pres.)
PRVP = PR and Publicity
Financial VP = Treasurer
Programs VP = all programing - not just national programs - includes things like philanthropy and intramurals chairs
Recording Secretary - records minutes and keeps merit points
Membership VP - Recruitment and in smaller chapters COB
Panhellenic Delegate - serves on exec with voice but no vote

Under all but the President & PH Delegate is a council of women. Our Ritual Chair and New Member Orientation Chair (or NMOC for short) are on a council.

No officers can be added to our exec.

This has only been our officer structure for about a dozen years. My chapter was the pilot for this b/c our chapter advisor came up with it. It works very well, but for alumnae that were under the old system it can be pretty confusing. Old school Chapter Life VP was our Quill Chairman. She was on exec, but was basically the standards officer. In my chapter we had 16 people on exec before the new system came out - what a nightmare! Probably why my CA came up with the new system! :D

President = Eminent Archon
Vice President = Eminent Deputy Archon
Treasurer = Eminent Treasurer
Recording Secretary = Eminent Recorder
Corresponding Secretary = Eminent Correspondent
Pledge Orientation = Pledge Educator
Ritual = Eminent Herald
Seargent-at-Arms = Eminent Warden
Historian = Eminent Chronicler

National Officers titles are similar (Eminent Supreme ...)

Person who guides the pledges = New Member Coordinator

As an update, Alpha Delta Pi changed the title of treasurer last fall, so now the structure of the executive board (and titles) are these:

President = President
Vice President = Executive Vice President (EVP)
Membership Education Vice President (MEVP)
Recruitment = Recruitment Vice President (RVP)
Treasurer = Finance Vice President (FVP)
Panhellenic Delegate = Panhellenic Delegate
Social Chair = Director of Social Enrichment (**appointed position**)
Standards Chair = Director of Standards and Ethics (**appointed position**)

You know you're getting old when... There was a President, a First VP (Efficiency) and Second VP (Membership Education) - not four of them!! :(

Senusret I 09-08-2005 07:25 AM

President President
Vice President
Recording Secretary
Treasurer

All of the above are the same.


Person in charge of rituals. We don't have this office -- the President is in charge of what ritual books we are allowed to have.

Person who plans rush. My chapter doesn't conduct rush, but in an undergrad chapter, this would be the Director of Intake.


Person who guides the pledges. The Director of Intake.

Other officers:

Director of Membership (Retention and Reclamation, but not Intake)
Director of Education (Implements and oversees the national programs)
Chaplain
Associate Editor to the Sphinx (National magazine reporter/public relations, etc)

Someone mentioned in another post that their rush director was called the membership director...well to me that is the pledgemaster. So what do you call your:

President
Vice President (the one who takes over for the prez if necessary)
Recording Secretary
Treasurer
Person in charge of rituals
Person who plans rush
Person who guides the pledges

If you have more that have names you have to explain, add those too! :)

For Kappa Sig:
President: Grand Master (GM)
Vice President: Grand Procurator (GP)
Recording secretary: Grand Scribe (GS)
Treasurer: Grand Treasurer (GT)
Person in charge of rituals: Grand Master of Ceremonies or GMC (can also serve as a second vice president, is third in command)
Person who plans rush: Rush chairman
Person who guides pledges: Pledge educator

The Executive Committee that leads the chapter is made up of the GM, GP, GMC, GT and GS.

The governing board for the fraternity as a whole, the Supreme Executive Committee, uses similar designations, except that they insert the word "Worthy" before their title, i.e. the head of the fraternity is the Worthy Grand Master, or WGM.

Men of Principle Chairman

Cabinet Offices:

Historian
Chorister
Alumni Relations Chairman
Intramurals Chairman
Webmaster

Kai Committe: (Chaired by VP)

VP (votes only tie)
1 Senior Brother
1 Junior Brother
1 Sophomore Brothers
1 Freshman Brother

my chapters eboard consists of

President
VP Member Education (takes over if President is absent)
Secretary
Treasurer
VP of Recruitment
VP Scholarship
VP Loss Prevention (risk manager)
VP Public Relations External (handles alumni, and PR outside of Campus Life)
VP Public Relations Internal (handles Greek Life and campus life)

AGDLynn 04-23-2007 08:28 AM

Updated:

Team: President, Alumnae Relations Coordinator, Risk Management Coordinator, Ritual Coordinator

Member Development Team: VP Member Development, New Member Coordinator, Personal Development Coordinator, Sisterhood Coordinator

Scholarship Team: VP Scholarship, Social Coordinator

Recruitment Team: VP Recruitment, Membership Coordinator, COR Coordinator, Panhellenic Delegate ( I think this depends on the campus. At WGa, the Panhellenic Board is selected after people apply/interviewed.)

Operations Team: VP Operations, Publications Coordinator, Website Coordinator, Correspondence Coordinator

Finance Team: VP Finance, Philanthropy Coordinator, Purchasing Coordinator ("T-Shirt Coordinator"), Property Coordinator

Campus Relations Team: VP Campus Relations, Activities Coordinator, Public Relations Coordinator

For smaller chapters, some of the coordinator positions are shared OR the VP may do all of them, depending on the situation.

Executive Council is the President, VPs. The Property Coordinator will be on EC if there is a house (house, dorm, etc.) If not, the spot is an at-large position which could rotate. (I kind of like this idea..)

chiming in for NPHC (i know 'shid is up above somewhere) on a local level for my org:

President: Basileus
Vice President: Anti-Basileus (Membership chair)
Secretary: Grammateus
Treasurer: Tamiochus
Historian: Epistoleus

Then we have a Parlimentarian, who keeps the meetings on task (with Robert's rules of order), a Chaplain who is, for a lack of better phrasing on my part, the religious inspiration of the chapter (so if a prayer is requested or something...)
and for graduate chapters, additional Anti-Basilei are elected and numbered depending on how many undergraduate chapters it is responsible for. my chapter is only in charge of one collegiate chapter, so that officer is the 1st Anti-Basileus and they are that chapter's advisor. the most i've heard of for a graduate chapter is up to 4th Anti-Basileus... so i supposed that's 4 UG chapters they oversee.

The Executive Board for Phi Sigma Kappa is:

President
Vice-President: Runs meetings in President's absence, in charge of appointing chairs and committees
Secretary
Treasurer
Sentinal: Ritualist
Inductor: New member educator and guide

Rush Chair is the name for our recruitment chair and it is recommended that it be a different person than the Inductor. The Rush Chair is also appointed by the Vice-President or Executive Board. Any position other than Executive Board is appointed. This is the way it works in our chapter by-laws, could be different in other Phi Sigma Kappa chapters.
