NatCon2013 Update

Hey SED,

I am delighted to tell you that this past week the Southeast District was represented by 30 of our most courageous and dedicated individuals! It takes a lot of commitment and love for our sorority to drive, train. or fly all the way to the NED for a whole week! Although we are in various states of travel right now, I do want to take the time to recognize the chapters who were able to send representatives to NatCon2013!

Congratulations to:
Alpha Omega- THE Florida State University
Beta Xi- University of Florida
Gamma Epsilon- University of Miami
Epsilon Alpha- University of South Carolina
Epsilon Theta- Georgia Tech
Epsilon Lambda (life member)- North Carolina Central University
Zeta Beta- Tuskegee University
Zeta Psi- University of Central Florida
Eta Phi- Vanderbilt University
Theta Zeta- North Carolina A&T University
Theta Lambda- Auburn University
Iota Xi- Elon University

During National Convention, we were able to witness various traditions from various districts and we even got to bond as the SED! In our district caucus on Friday night, we discussed our candidates for National Office, and we also took some time to discuss our thoughts for the SED this year…
Some of us discovered we were not aware of district or national operations, some of us were old heads, some of us are seeking change, some of us see growth and forward progress; but through all of the things we discussed, the unifying thought spoke of involvement, which happens to be one of the 2013-2014 SED Council’s goals of this year!

So, as we end the summer and start the school year, be prepared to get involved! But not only at your school and chapter, venture out and make friends with sisters and brothers around the Southeast District!! I challenge you to get outside your comfort zone and road trip to a chapter outside of your state or region! Together, we can make a difference and build the SED to be even more of a powerhouse! Let’s reach out this year to those chapters who may not be as strong as our own, let’s make sure everyone knows they are welcome in the SED family!

As always, I congratulate you on being unique and spectacular in your way! Enjoy the rest of your summer and if you ever need anything, please do not hesitate to contact any member of your SED Council!

MLITB!

Guide to National Convention!

Hey SED:

So I realized this morning when I logged into the website that I never publicized this post containing the 2nd Part for the Guide to Convention. My mistake! While National Convention starts tomorrow, it would be awesome to take a look at this and make sure you’ve got everything you need and that you’re all ready to take part in the most awesome National Convention ever! : )

Good evening, SED!

We are only 11 days ONE DAY away from the start of the 2013 Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma National Convention!!!! A few weeks ago, I sent out the TBS SED 2013 Guide to National Convention, part 1. After much anticipation, and many hours of hard work, I am very pleased to present to you the TBS SED 2013 Guide to National Convention, part 2!!!

In this portion of the guidebook, you will find lists such as “What to Do,” “Who to Meet,” “What to Pack,” our official communication methods, and, of course, the finalized 2013 TBS Convention Schedule!!! Also, attached to this email, you will find BOTH portions of the Guide to Convention! 🙂

As always, let me know if you have any questions, concerns, or thoughts about anything I have mentioned! I cannot wait for the SED to SHOW UP AND SHOW OUT in Springfield!

We bring to you — the Summer SHELLS! : )

Hey Southeast District!

You can get help concerning summer chapter operations, National Convention, and more in this premiere issue from your district council! I hope you enjoy this edition of the SHELLS!
