I think Gamma Chi is such a wonderful idea! I've been reading through all 15 pages of information and would love to be a part of this group! I'm going to sign up to be a big/lil and to be part of a committee. If there is anything in particular I need to do to become a member, please PM me or e-mail me at aphijess@hotmail.com .

Thanks everyone!

Hi Everyone,


Wow! It's great to see so many people excited about Gamma Chi!

I just wanted to ask everyone if it was OK to take a little "breather" here. We *do* have a list of people who are currently on committees. We are working as fast as we can to get the information out as soon as possible. Hopefully our committees will have preliminary reports posted by May 1st.

Until then, for those of you who have just recently found this thread, please hold off on forming any new committees. Here's what you *can* do: you may go back through the earlier posts and find the committee list. Find a committee that interests you and contact one of the people whose name you see listed. Ask if they still have room on their committee for an extra person.

theta sig agd, I agree, it is important to have a central listing of member information. However, at this time, there is no need for a mailing list or a "Central Information Committee". That is because our Membership Committee is already hard at work designing a membership application which will take care of the information you mentioned. Once that application is ready for distribution, *then* we can begin to collect and centralize the information. Since you seem to really be interested in that sort of thing, how 'bout you contact the Membership Committee and see if you can join up? I bet you'd have some great ideas!

Lady Pi Phi, same goes for you! We currently have a website committee in the process of putting together our internet presence. Please contact the Website Committee for more information on how you can help. The way I understand it, Gamma Chi is an off-shoot of Greek Chat - hence the name. I'm thinking that we are supposed to keep the discussion groups here for that reason. The yahoo groups were set up merely to function as listserves to help facilitate committee members' communication. But hey, go say hello to the website committee and ask how they might be able to incorporate your MSN community.

As I said earlier, I think everyone's enthusiasm is terrific! Of course, we ask that you do be patient as we seek to build a solid foundation for Gamma Chi. After all, Rome wasn't built in a day!

Instead of making everyone dig through the previous pages looking for it, I've posted the committee list below.

Please be aware that this is NOT an updated list. I already know that some people who should be listed aren't - and others decided to step out of committees. Final committee member lists should be presented by the Committee Chairs in their prelim reports. I suggest a maximum of 8 people per committee. It just doesn't make sense to have 35 people in a committee - how can the work ever get done?

At any rate, here's the gist of what we've got so far:

Hi Navane,

My MSN community, was just a place to help organize things. I think if Gamma Chi is going to go anywhere, we need a place of our own. I know this is where it all started, but if it's going to expand we need aplace of our. This doesn't have to be the place, just a temporary place and I'm willing to work with our website creator on this. But if we're going to grow, I don't think we can remain here, especially not in this tiny thread.

Just my opinion,

Emily

I think many are trying to solve this problem by creating other threads inwhich to post what their committee or specific person has to say.
Its not that your website isnt a good idea and everything, Its just that right now as Navane said, there are certain ppl working on committees and Im not sure if your website has restricted members access, but your website (with all good intentions) might have tons of people logging on who arent on committees thinking that they are members, when they actually arent. Right now the only "members" are those who have signed up for a committee or to be a Big/Lil, until we get the full fledge membership drive going when EVERYONE will have to sign an app.

sounds cool!

On a related note, in the united States they have founded an honorary boathouse calleed old Glory Boathouse and any current or previous member or coach of the US Natioanl Team is eligible. Lots of the peole that are or have been a part of the US NT have expressed support for such a move so I think this could work.. would help coordinate things as well!

Great Idea!

Emily, I was considering using the Gamma Chi MSN chat room for ritual. I know Greek Chat has a chat room, but isn't it available to the public? Even if not, any random person without a genuine interest in Gamma Chi could sign up on Greek Chat, go into the chat room, and learn all our secrets... (we are planning on introducing a few into the initiation ceremony) I suspect that with the MSN community, we'd have more control.

brooklineu, that's a really sweet idea.

Is anyone else interested in joining the ritual committee? We're pulling some things together, including a new member ceremony that we can hopefully schedule for some time this week. (theta sig agd, I PM'd you.)
