2007-08 Chapter Strategic Plan Beta Omega – 2008-2009 Strategic Plan At the 2008 Balfour Leadership Training Workshop, our chapter identified 5 main areas for maintenance and improvement. These goals, and our plan of action for each, are outlined below.
  1. Recruitment
· Main goal: 15 initiated brothers first term, and 10 initiated brothers second term · Additional goal: expand our horizons and branch it beyond our pool at New College, i.e. need to recruit more students from other colleges; explore potentials at UTSC; maintain our growing Ryerson pool · Recruitment chairman: Josh Johnson · Our first step will be to establish a committee; due to the numerous pools of students that we will be recruiting from, we will need one brother who is familiar with each, so as to keep the chapter apprised of any events where we could show our presence · All committee members will report directly to the recruitment chairman, with info regarding events and contact info for potential recruits · Prepare a calendar of events for the rush period, and post on the website; also make available on our Facebook page · Recruitment chairman to handle invites for all potential recruits, at least 3 days before the scheduled event
  1. Alumni Involvement
· Main goal: increase alumni involvement within the chapter; specifically, maintain current alumni contacts and bring in 10 additional new faces to the chapter over the course of the year · Chapter advisor: David Stroud · Tribune: Dhenesh Nadesalingham · Chapter advisor to set up an advisory board for all the major officers within the chapter; alumni advisors should be in direct contact with their respective undergraduate officers · Advisory board to initiate a leadership development program to take place throughout the school year; program will accept one undergraduate applicant and arrange meetings with various alumni for leadership consulting · Tribune to compose a calendar of events, geared specifically towards alumni, to be spread out throughout the year; tribune will also handle the general invitations for all alumni; consul and pro consul to handle personal invites · Correspond with Canadian Foundation regarding a list of alumni in the province · Aim to invite recruits to our alumni invites, to advertise networking · Set up an alumni big brother program – each undergraduate brother to compile a resume/profile to be matched up with an alumnus
  1. Campus Involvement
· Main goal: have all active brothers enrolled in an extracurricular group, outside of Sigma Chi, by the end of first semester, in order to increase campus presence · Each brother to be required to register in at least one group on campus, as part of extracurricular involvement · Acceptable activities include, but are not limited to (for fulfilling the required extracurricular involvement, all groups/organizations must be approved by the consul/pro consul): i. Student groups ii. Varsity sports iii. Intramural sports iv. Orientation leaders/execs
  1. Scholarship
· Main goal: foster better attitudes towards the academic side of the fraternity, bring chapter GPA up to 2.5 · Scholarship chairman: Gifferd Ko · Mandatory study hours for pledges to be enforced: 2 hours every week at a designated study area · Active brothers to sign up for supervising pledges, thereby completing their own weekly study hours; will need 2 brothers for each day of the week; aim is to have at least 1 study session per day (in the evening after classes), though more is possible · To apply to Canadian Foundation for scholarship grants; with bursaries, aim is to award one brother every active month of the school year – award will be based upon said brother’s scholastic ability, demonstrated through graded papers and tests, as well as campus involvement, and performance in Sigma Chi
  1. Brotherhood Spirit
· Main goal: increase brotherhood spirit throughout the 2008-2009 school year through hosting more brotherhood events; increase brotherhood attendance at all events to 85% of the active chapter · Social budget increased by 1.5% to accommodate better events; social chairman to head up planning (assign committee) · Executive committee is responsible for encouraging all members of the active chapter to come out, as well as ‘pumping up’ the events
