“Looking back at this past year I don’t know who or where I would be without this experience as a Phi Sigma Sigma Field Consultant. Going into this adventure I looked at it as an opportunity to travel and meet new people, a way to ease out of my college years. Now, as my term comes to an end, I consider this more than an adventure. I consider this past year a collection of newfound friendships, achievements, and opportunities.
Personally I have gained lifelong friends and a better understanding of my strengths, weaknesses, and priorities. Professionally I have gained mentors, contacts, and a first hand understanding of how a national organization operates. This position allows you to grow as an individual while helping our organization grow on a local and national level.”
- Rachel Morris, Epsilon Phi ’03, Field Staff 2003-2004
Phi Sigma Sigma is currently seeking part-time field consultants for the 2004-2005 school year. Field consultants are required to work two weekends (Friday through Monday) each month from September until May. Most field consultants will be assigned to visit chapters close to where they reside and will work with the membership managers and regional collegiate directors to set up their visitation schedule. Some air travel may be required. Field consultants visit each assigned chapter and provide support in the following areas: officer training, implementation of Fraternity programs and policies including Vision, Reflections, and Chapter Excellence, committee and executive board operations, judicial board matters, recruitment, risk management and housing (if applicable). Field consultants also meet with the chapter key advisor, advisory board, and Greek advisor to review chapter performance.
As a Field Consultant you will join a small group of Phi Sigma Sigma alumnae that have served our collegiate chapters over the years. You will also be eligible for a field consultant scholarship at the end of your service to support your graduate studies.
“Every collegiate chapter is uniquely different and working with a multitude of chapters has allowed me to realize how truly great our organization is. I have had the opportunity to work with three colonies and that has been a great experience. Working with chapters to establish a strong foundation has been one of the many amazing experiences I have had.
Every day I face new challenges and I am pushed to further develop my leadership, organizational, time management, and problem solving skills. My confidence and maturity levels have also increased significantly. This has been one of the most defining experiences of my life and I will cherish it always.”
- Katie Vlietstra, Epsilon Delta ’03, Field Staff 2003-2004
