"Oh I am an Alpha Phi, Loyal and True I chose the Ivy Leaf 'cause nothing else will do and now I'm wearing that Golden Pin, Silver and Bordeaux, and it stands for Top Notch Girls where ever you go."

We had:
Drunk Driving
Time Managment (making school a 9-5 job, have your evenings free)
Interviewing


Most of my sisters were looking at grad school and time mang and interviewing were big helps.

I always thought it would be good to have a basic cooking lesson or something on germs/cleaning to help keep people healthy. However, your in canada where they have flu shots

We sure do have the flu shot here, I actually work for a Canadian Pharmacy, www.canadadiscountrx.com selling perscriptions to people in the United States, you'd be surprised as to how many people call about the Flu Shot. Unfortunatley it is unavailable.
Anyhow, thanks for your ideas!!

The chapter just did a fun scrapbook thing where they each made a page about themselves with a picture they brought and then cut stuff out of magazines. They are all being assembled into a big book that will be given to the new member class that we are about to recruit. They had fun doing it and it will be helpful to the new members!

Host a fitness class (yoga, aerobics, kickboxing, etc)
Resume writing, getting a job, interviewing tips
Applying to Graduate School/Taking the GRE/MCAT/LSAT
Etiquette workshop
Time management, Study tips
Consequences and dangers of: Underage drinking, Using a fake ID, Drinking While Intoxicated, Public Intoxication, Aiding & Abetting a minor for underage drinking, Noise



For speakers, this site is a good resource, they manage speakers that will come to your campus to speak on a variety of topics:

You could cosponsor with other greek groups or through the Greek Life Office.

Girls Fight Back by Erin Weed (an Alpha Phi alumna) is a great program to sponsor for your whole campus for self defense - http://www.girlsfightback.com/
