Join us on Tuesday, January 23rd for the first of our two part round-table series to help chapter members prepare for the Spring of 2024. In this session we’ll have four breakout rooms where chapters members can discuss a topic, share best practices and get new ideas for their chapter. Fraternity staff will facilitate each session and give an overview of the topic and then open it up for discussion.
