Brothers: Greetings from St. Louis, site of DTD's Northern Plains/Western Plains Leadership Conference. Next weekend I'll be hanging w/Delta Chis @ Purdue, and I've also attended seminars put on by ATO & SigEp in the last few weeks...'tis the season.

The reason I bring up these other organizations is that I've been able to observe how they're running their workshops. Whether it's called a conference, seminar, workshop or academy, they've all got one motive: to train the leaders of the organization (current & future).

Today I was privileged to hear a lunchtime speech by DTD's International VP, Rock Clinton. Two ideas he discussed are readily adapted by any GLO. In no particular order, they are:

*It's time to stop talking & take action
*Get off the porch and do something

We need to offer ourselves as alumni volunteers on the chapter level...assist by doing workshops @ GA...help to make a difference.

Okay, I'll get off the soapbox--

In ZAX,
BF
