I've been working on MBPsi business lately, and I thought I should keep you posted.
Convention 2008 Schedule
NP Andrew and I have been working on the schedule for Convention 2008. We have created a joint to-do list on google docs, and we have a lot to prepare before Convention. You will be hearing a lot more from me in the coming weeks as we begin the preparations.
National Officer and BOT Reviews
I will be posting the National Officer and BOT reviews in an online survey format this year (using Zoomerang). We will be reviewing all officers not up for re-election as well as one of the BOT members. Your feedback is critical to improving our performance.
Shingle Orders
Alpha and Omicron had a little bit of a backlog of shingle orders, so I handled that over the break, and shingles should be in Brothers' hands by now. If your chapter has missing shingle orders, please email me at secretary at mubetapsi dot org, and I'll get it straightened out.
Work-Life Balance
We started classes this week. I'm teaching two sections of Organizational Behavior and one section of Team Dynamics. I'm also the new advisor for SHRM (Society for Human Resources Management), and I'm trying to help Omicron chapter as much as possible. Finally, I'm planning a wedding--I'm getting married this summer.
That's it for now. Hope you have a great semester.

Compiled Contact Information & Calendar
The current contact information for Brothers at each of the chapters is located in the Knowledgebase section of the intranet. Go to National Documents --> Addresses --> and you'll see two files of note:
- "Address List - Fall 2007" is an excel file with one tab for each chapter. If your contact information is missing or incorrect, please email me at secretary@mubetapsi.org
- "Contact Info - NOs, BOT, and MALs" is a single page PDF file with contact info for the national officers, BOT members, chapter presidents, and MALs. You can print this out for easy access!
I have also created two google calendars for National Deadlines and Chapter Academic Calendars. Email me if you would like me to add you to the google calendar or send you the link to view it.
Hope everyone is doing well.

Compiling the Convention Minutes
The most overwhelming task for a new NS is compiling the Convention minutes. Without all of the reports, the minutes from legislative council (LC) alone are 45 pages. I need your help in making sure that we have an accurate record of events.
In the next few days, I will be creating a list of reports that I still need from you. So far, I have emailed some of the national officers (NOs), committee chairs, and chapter MALs regarding their missing LC reports. Next on the block will be the chapter reports within each committee. Stay tuned, and email me at secretary at mu beta psi dot org if you have any questions.
I will be on Spring break next week (March 19-23). I hope to get the majority of the Convention minutes compiled at that time. With your help, I can get these Convention minutes posted in record time. Thanks in advance!
