Happy Friday! 

Here are the updates and reminders for this week:
 
Fraternity & Sorority Social Media Keynote - E4E Eligible! 
Want to learn how to leverage your chapter's social media to grow your chapter and share all the wonderful work you are doing?

Fraternity & Sorority Affairs is bringing Guillermo Flores, founder of Fraternity Social Media, to campus on Tuesday, April 1st, at 7 PM in Hubbell Auditorium. A member of Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity and the Digital Media Director for Sigma Phi Epsilon, Guillermo marries his passions for fraternity and sorority life with digital media creation to help communities and chapters! 

This program is open to all community members and can be counted under the Leadership Standard on your E4E submissions. More information coming soon! 


New Member Rosters
If your chapter is taking new members this semester, please update your New Member Roster by Friday, February 28th. If you need access, please contact either Eric (IFC) or jay (PHA/MGC) to receive access to your respective sheet. 

New Member Orientation
This semester's New Member Orientation is today at 3:30  in Feldman Ballroom. All new members are required to attend. If any issues or concerns arise, please contact Courtney Floom (courtney.floom@rochester.edu) before this date. These online trainings will open on this date as well. 

Fraternity & Sorority Assessment Invoices

Spring 2025 Assessment Fees are due before March 1, 2025. If you choose to use your Gift Account, please have your advisor email Eric or jay. 

Gift Accounts Updated
All chapter gift accounts have been updated as of December 2024. If you require access, please email Eric or jay with the name of the person(s) who need access. 

The parameters for using the funds can be found in the FSA policy booklet

Consent & Boundaries 101 Workshop - E4E Eligible! 
Join the UHS Health Promotion Office and Title IX for an upcoming workshop that can help you meet your E4E requirements! 

On 2/25 from 2:30-4:00 p.m. in the Welles-Brown Room, we will co-host our second-ever Consent and Boundaries 101 Workshop. We know that meeting these expectations can sneak up on you by the end of the semester, so this is a great opportunity to start strong.

There will be a free catered meal and wellness products for the taking. This workshop is a great opportunity to learn tangible skills to communicate and respect consent and boundaries (and learn what consent and boundaries are).

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. We can't wait to see you all there! 

If you cannot make this workshop but would like to request them to lead it at one of your chapter meetings, please reach out to Roni Kirson (rkirson@u.rochester.edu) and Mace McDonald (m.mcdonald@rochester.edu) to get things scheduled!
