If this is your first visit to the SigEp Feds, welcome. If you already know about the SigEp Feds and are returning for a quick update, welcome back. The reason why I am writing to you today is to ask your assistance. As you may or may not know, participation has been down at our events lately. This is no fault of your own or those who run the group. In fact, we enjoy the company of anyone who shows up to our events, whether it be two brothers or twenty. Wings Nite has been successful with many showing up each month. Both those who have never attended and those who regularly attend.
Monthly meetings/dinners, however, are falling short of expectations and we would like to re-invite you to attend tomorrow, March 3rd or in April. We would like your input for future events and activities with this group. Is participating in a kickball league in our future? Do you want to start meeting every other month, instead of every month? Would you like to incorporate more philanthropy activities than our "Cat in the Hat" Month/Seuss on the Loose event every March? How can we reinvigorate the group? We need your help.
As a part of this request we would like to invite new blog authors to the SigEp Feds. We want this to be more than just a bulletin board of event updates. We want to start a conversation related to SigEp alumni. In no way are we trying to compete with our brother blog, the S&P but we are looking to engage all alumni, not just those in the Washington, DC area, but around the country regarding topics of interest to the Sigma Phi Epsilon (ΣΦΕ, SigEp) alumni audience. What are your thoughts on alumni groups? What are your thoughts on attending Carlson or Conclave at least once in your lifetime? Should it be like Mecca and you have to go at least once or does it pump you up so much (for those who have been to one), that you recommend it for any and all alumni to attend every time? What about voting rights at Conclave? Should alumni have them?
You see, we are looking for contributors who are interested in creating something different than the S&P but also something that is on topic for alumni and not necessarily the undergrad members of SigEp. We are not saying that undergraduate members cannot view or post their comments here, but we are saying that the conversations will surround alumni and topics of interest to alumni.
We are only looking for a commitment of at least one post per month. If you would like to post every day, week, or more than once per day, please, by all means, be our guest. This doesn't mean that those who are already listed as contributors will hand over the reigns. It just means we are looking to add to the rolls of those who are authorized to post here.
If you would like to become a regular contributor to this blog, please e-mail Will Hull and if you have them, please link to some other things you may have written pertaining to the fraternity or attach them to the e-mail along with your name and your undergraduate chapter (so we can verify you are, indeed a SigEp). We look forward to your response.
As a start, I would like to ask:
- What does a "Lifetime Responsibility of Brotherhood" mean to you?
