2008-09 Chapter Strategic Plan
1. Last year our chapter was forced to develop a new sober driving program with just active brother drivers. Below is an updated plan from last year as we worked out kinks in the new system. It has been working great for us, so other chapters with this problem may want to give a program like this a try.
Sigma Chi Lambda Lambda Chapter: Brother Driving Program Fall 2007 Semester: Logistics: -Members: 103 -Weekends in the semester where drivers are needed: 12 (when Thanksgiving, Formal, and Labor Day weekends are excluded) -12 weeks (x) 3 Nights = 36 Nights for the semester -Active Drivers on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Nights from 10 p.m. -3 a.m. Plan: -Brothers will sign up for the night they want to drive by badge order. Majority of J Board punishments will be driving -Seniors: Drive Once this semester (1 per year) Juniors: Drive Once per semester (2 per year) Sophomores: Drive Twice per semester (4 per year) JA’s: Drive three nights (3 this semester) ****JA’s next semester: Drive 4 nights Drivers Per Night: Thursday Night: 4 Drivers Friday Night: 3 Drivers Saturday Night: 4 Drivers Driving Time: 10pm-3am **bars close at 2:30 am NEW INCENTIVE: $1 program Each car load gives a driver $1 every time you ride with him Phone: Risk Manager will send out the numbers of those driving on the lsv Punishments:
2. Another big part of our strategy this year is to continue our new philanthropy event, Sigma Chi Fight Night. In this event amateur fighters from each fraternity will duke it out in a boxing tournament. At the end of the tournament the fraternity with the most points earned by their fighters wins. We have already raised enough money to support this expensive event, and we are hoping to raise thousands more to donate to the Huntsman Foundation. Our event is November 13 and 14. Following is the packet we developed for this event. We are inviting all of our brothers, so feel free to join in the festivities.

As a national governing body recognized by the United States Olympic Committee, USA Boxing is responsible for the administration, development and promotion of Olympic-style boxing in the United States. USA Boxing is a non-profit organization and is managed by a Chief Executive Officer who reports to a Board of Directors. 2.

All individuals intending to compete in Fight Night may not have any prior competitive boxing experience. Those not allowed to compete in Fight Night include but are not limited to: Professional boxers, foreign athletes, incarcerated athletes, females, non-Greek students, non-full-time students, those deemed unfit by a medical professional (as outlined in Number 5), etc. 4. If, for any valid reason, a boxer is unable to appear for a bout he has already committed to, the boxer must notify Sigma Chi or Delta Delta Delta in advance so that a substitute may be arranged. 5. Boxers must arrive for a brief physical examination and weighing-in at the time specified. Medical Aptitude (this is a brief and simplified overview for your convenience): -must be HIV negative -must be Hepatitis B Virus negative -may not have an active herpetic lesion (fever blister or cold sore) -Wearing of glasses in the ring is prohibited. Contact lenses are legal. -Significant untreated cuts or abrasions are prohibited. -If the boxer wears braces he may only compete with written consent from his dentist/orthodontist and with a dentist-molded mouthpiece. 6. Proper boxing attire: A basketball-type jersey or t-shirt with your organization’s name, basketball shorts, mouthpiece and hand-wrap must be provided by the boxer. All other equipment will be provided, including gloves, headgear, cup, etc. More specific guidelines will be provided at the informational clinic. 7. All further questions regarding/requests for official USA Boxing rules will be made available in a timely manner upon request. Contact Tim Pearce (contact information given above). 8. All appropriate paperwork must be filled out on time by each participating boxer. (continues below)
9. Boxing Tournament Logistics: a) Single elimination tournament b) Weight classes are as follows: -112 112.1-119 119.1-125 125.1-132 132.1-139 139.1-147 147.1-156 156.1-165 165.1-175 175.1-185 185.1-195 195.1-205 205.1-220 220.1+ c) Brackets will be determined once each team’s entry forms are turned in d) Boxers will enter as part of a team (i.e. Team Sigma Chi) e) Fight Night winners will be determined by a point system as follows: -Bracket Champion (7 pts.) -Bracket Runner-Up (5 pts.) -Bracket Semi-Finalist (2 pts.) -Bracket Competitor (1 pt.) f) Teams will be awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd place trophies based on a final count of earned points.
Alcohol and Lewd Conduct Clause 1. All participants must conduct themselves in a civil and orderly manner. Participants must be respectful of fellow students, of attendees and of officials during Fight Night. 2. All participants must conduct themselves without lewd, vulgar, explicit or otherwise offensive behavior while attending Fight Night. If an official, a Sigma Chi or a Delta Delta Delta monitoring the event observes such behavior, they reserve the right to request dismissal of the individual(s) or entire member organization from Fight Night and the right to disqualify them from one or all events. 3. Participants and attendees possessing or under the influence of alcohol or any illegal substance will not be admitted and will be asked to leave Fight Night. 4. Alcohol and/or lewd conduct will not under any circumstances be tolerated at, or in conjunction with, Fight Night. 5. By participating in Fight Night (as a boxer, corner man, Ring Girl, spectator, or anything else), you officially agree to the above terms.
3. A major undertaking this year has been and continues to be the restructuring and refining of the pledge program. This new program is based on Ritual and features a system of positive reinforcement in which the pledge class works together to assemble The Founders’ Chain. The chain is comprised of seven links that the pledge class earns through group activities in which they grow in their understanding of our 7 virtues. These links are distributed at the end of each week as a reward for their endeavors to better understand our history and seek the truest meanings of Sigma Chi. This creative addition to the new member process has been a great success for the chapter and has culminated in a tight-knit group of young men who are excited and ready to construct their legacy.
4. As the chapter continues to grow to nearly 130 memebers it is becoming more important to strengthen our brotherhood and come together as a chapter. We have two main goals to strengthen brotherhood for this year. The begin we are going to start having monthly chapter dinners where everyone can come together before meeting to catch up. The second and most important thing we are going to do is put together a Chapter retreat. We're going to get at least 80% participation in a weekend retreat that focuses on building brotherhood.
