Hello, I just wanted to extend my congratulations on becoming President! I am excited to see how you will run things for us. I meant to speak with you on sunday but you were speaking to the officers. You may have possibly expressed to them what you expect from them but i'm curious on what you expect from out pledge class as a whole. what can we all contribute to make our pledging process smooth, fun and memorable?
Thank you very much for the vote of confidence. I apologize that I did not make sufficient time to visit with each and every person! Please let me know the next time this happens so I can make a note to open myself up for questions after the formalities are completed. Again I am sorry, if you still wish to speak with me I will make myself available and you all have my phone number, email and this blog to ask your questions. Please do not feel that it is not important, all questions and concerns are! Now to address your question... I did express to an extent what my wishes were, briefly and most importantly: Please be prompt in doing your assigned tasks and do them to the best of your abilities, I do not want to be the person to do everything or to make any of our experiences pledging a horrible one. We all have things to do but we did 'pledge' to the fraternity and it is only fair they get our best. Your individual best effort and support is all I ask. Be courteous to all of your future Brothers and existing 'Brothers' since we are attempting to prove to them that we are worthy candidates. I can go on and on and on, but I think we all get the picture. I extend to everyone again to help each other and motivate ourselves, if you see something that needs correcting or help, do not wait; leadership is just one thing that we all must exercise to sharpen. Tonight was our first pledge meeting where we actually were let loose, sort of and I think it went ok. We will get better and eventually this will be something we all remember fondly and learn from. Thank you all very much for your contributions!!!

Hello, I thought the meeting went pretty well. It was a little rough but thats to be expected on the first day. I do think that we need to work on our manners and refrain from talking while others are speaking. Maybe we can implement a strategy where we take like a Nerf ball, or plush ball, and only the person holding that item can speak. Just a thought, might be fun too. I also just wanted to let you know that I posted my availability under the fund raising blog. I think we are doing pretty good, but we should speed things up, we have a whole lot of money to raise.
