Our National Council has recommended to postpone our July 2020 convention until next year. No official announcement yet.

It's Official:

"All three sessions of Leadership Academy are cancelled and, after a motion approved and distributed by the National Council, a majority vote by the Residents Council’s passed, which postpones the 64th National Convention".

As the Pandemic Persists, Is the Party Over For Campus Greek Life?

https://www.edsurge.com/news/2020-05...YYuzYUgBnOtC84

I find the title to be strange considering the content. Either way, a quick read about the benefits of Greek life during these times and how organizations are trying to adjust.

For example, in addition to adding signs on campus about handwashing and mask-wearing, Perlow envisions colleges developing peer-to-peer campaigns in which students challenge each other to stay safe.[/quote]

How old does she think these students are, 8?

I am envisioning corny scenarios in which collegiates admonish each other to stay safe. I can't help it.

For instance, my 2 youngest are at the same university so I'm picturing one cheerfully telling the other to keep his mask on. Or the other challenging his brother to see if he can increase his hand sanitizer use.

Not happening.

COVID has now affected my chapter in a way that affects me and other alumnae as well as the actives.

My chapter was chartered in November 1995, so we were going to have a 25th anniversary reunion/celebration this November. The planning committee has decided to scrap the reunion, maybe do something online, and maybe do something in November 2021 instead.

It's a shame. I was looking forward to seeing my sisters, meeting the younger sisters, and visiting Boston/Cambridge (I haven't been up there in years). A Zoom meeting just isn't the same.
