I just got back from Chicago today. What an excellent convention. I think we could finally sense all three parts coming together again: undergrads, alumni, and National staff. I also think we have the right two men to continue bringing us all together--Scott Wiley and Chris Northern. Chris has worked in the trenches as a volunteer for a long time and his breadth of experience will be a good compliment to Scott's passion to improve the fraternity.
The general sense I got was "let's give them a chance." HQ and the GC know they will be held accountable for the promises made this week. They are certainly off to a good start and I, for one, am confident the convention in Austin in 2005 will be a celebration of the results of what was begun in Chicago.
It was great meeting so many brothers from around the country and I look forward to the continued free exchange of ideas until we meet again.
