How's it going Ivan?

I'm pretty much in concensus with you two. The first two days of leadership exercises were all things which I've done before with my chapter during meets with our EC, or in some other leadership thing I've done. The most helpful and enjoyable parts of the Institute were the group discussions in our chapters and actually applying our principles through things such as the philanthropy. Discussing the ritual in the hall of chapters should have happened on the second day, or maybe even late the first day with the rest of the week doing more hands on things that our principles apply to, then coming back in large and small group discussions about it. But all in all Institute was still an amazing experience, and the biggest thing that I brought back for our chapter is accountability, since that's our chapter's biggest problem- if a brother isn't holding himself, or his other brothers accountable to the seven and three that he commits himself to once a month, it just lead to other problems.
