Why has no one thought of this???

So, I was talking to this girl that was the recipient of the Atlanta Alumnae Panhellenic Undergraduate Scholar Award, and was thinking how cool it would be to have an Alumni IFC.

I wonder why no one has thought of it...

It could give guys that want to get involved in greek life a chance (especially when there is no alumni base in their city), they can host recruitment workshops, and offer scholarships for fratenity men with outstanding leadership.

Most of all it could be good way to network for jobs...

Any comments? Ideas? or suggestions on how to contact NIC?

Our school has an Alumni IFC. In fact it was active prior to the formation of the undergrad IFC and instrumental in forming it really. It focuses on issues that undergrads deal with a lot. There were talks on hazing, pledging, rushing, house management, etc. I think it was also putting together some sort of awards and acted as a unified body to address university concerns.

On the whole they had great intentions but the meetings were long and somewhat boring.

Thumbs up

A great idea!

Alum IFC's could be a potent weapon against schools such as Alfred U. No Greeks = no donated money. Would be a nice thing to be able to dangle over the alma mater's head.

KSIG600 --

I think it is a great idea and was just wondering how to go about getting such a group started down here in Peachtree City -- I wanted to have a Panhellenic exchange with frat alums this upcoming year -- don't you think it'd be great!

AGDLynn is right -- I won the Atlanta Alumnae Panhel Woman of the Year award in 2000 while I was still a member there -- when I won the award I was in process of creating our own Alum Panhel association down in the Southern Crescent...

...und, now I vant to create an alumni IFC group...mwah hahahaha ...and soon I vill take over the world!!! mwahahahaha

seriously, I think its a great idea Ksig600! can I help?
