From HQ
This is an email that was sent to us from HQ regarding the changes -- these are in fact resolutions that NPC is implementing for the next two years. If you have questions about it, carebear, then contact Kristin (CC) or Elizabeth (Regional Coordinator) for your area. If you need either of those numbers, PM me.
From HQ:
Dear Chapter Presidents, Chapter Advisors, and
volunteer officers:
Thank you for your efforts this year to maintain a
positive and productive Alpha Chi Omega experience. To
keep you informed, we wanted to provide some
information that you may begin hearing about on your
campus with respect to recruitment processes.
The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) has been
studying recruitment processes on college campuses for
several years. In October, 2003 the NPC voted to
implement 12 resolutions that address several
recruitment topics and the possible redesign of the
recruitment process to fit campus situations. The
outcomes for redesigning recruitment on any campus
should include: Parity, Growth, Marketing, and
Partnership (with administrators, NPC area advisors
and local chapters).
These resolutions impact the following topics:
* Marketing Plan for Recruitment
* Recruitment Handbook for College Panhellenic Associations
* NPC Committee to monitor trends and develop recruitment strategies
*Menu of four recruitment styles for college
panhellenics:
- Continuous open recruitment;
- Minimally structured recruitment;
- Partially structured recruitment;
- Fully structured recruitment;
* "No Frills" Concept
* Positive Panhellenic Contact to be Used at all Times
* Annual review of total and options in determining total
* Elimination of quota setting methods I and II
* Quota Range
* Alternate methods for calculating release figures
* Limited Application of Bid Matching
The resolutions will go into effect over the next two
years. Several campuses are implementing some of the
options contained in the resolutions with the upcoming
recruitment period. As recruitment preparation begins,
do not be surprised to hear about these topics. Alpha
Chi Omega will provide more education to you as the
summer progresses. On more than 20 pilot campuses
using the new release figures management program,
systems are seeing results. If you have any questions
or concerns, please contact a staff member or member
of Alpha Chi Omega's NPC delegation. We look forward
to working with you!
