Brothers, Alumni and Pledges,
Over the past year, the Alpha Phi Omega Media and Technology Committee has been carefully sifting through the items you submitted for the trial copy of the Alpha Phi Omega Resource CD. It's some wonderful stuff! We have all the official materials supplied by the National Office, as well as fundraising ideas, chapter bylaws examples, agendas, meeting minutes, a guide for officer transition, clip art, press release guides, leadership development materials, membership retention tactics, pledge program guidelines, pledge training materials and quizzes, rush fliers, posters, table-tents, service project report forms and evaluation forms. It is truly excellent material, but it isn't enough.
We want more.
If you or someone in your chapter has written any guides or detailed documentation in any of the following fields, please submit the content right away (with permission).
