real news..
 

so, national convention is this year and i am planning on going. i had the pleasure in attending some other conferences adn it was a great experience. who's going? and what you think abou them wanting to change the toast song???

When is the convention?

Since the early 1960s, the National convention has been in the week between Xmas & New Year. For the last 20+ years it has been the 27th-30th. Denver, Colorado is the location and you can go to www.convention.apo.org for more info.

My personal feeling is that the Toast song change doesn't have a good chance of passing this time around any more than previous. Changing it doesn't require a majority, it requires two thirds just as any part of the ritual does. (Similarly changing the crest for example)

(And I'd just like to say that compared to the other thread, this one feels like a nice cool breeze)

If I can come up with the money, I will be going. Unfortunately, we don't get funding like the other Florida schools do.

Denver or bust
 

I shall be in attendance, and I hope many of you all will too. We need to have a APO-GC'ers party up there. Let's try to set something up as the date gets closer.

I agree!!! We could have a nice GC party. I'll be going deacones...you already know. I think it will be a great experience, plus it's practice for me, you know I"m going to be the first African-American Female President of the Fraternity (Nationally)

Well, hail to the future chief! Keep working hard and keep your goal in sight and you can do it! So, future Madam President, you're bringing the "big silver can" to the APO-GC bash right? :)
