Fall 2011 Updates

A special welcome to our PGM newbies-- you will be inducted in the November induction ceremony. This blog is one of the means in which we comunicate with our Pi Gamma Mu community- so please check often for news and updates.

The things that are certain in life are death and taxes... and CHANGE!

This year the format of the induction ceremony will change as Pi Gamma Mu will be doing a joint induction with the Criminal Justice Honor Society, and it will be a luncheon event for students, faculty, and administration. This promises to be a lovely event, just as the evening dinners have been in the past. The luncheon will be at 1 PM on Friday, November 11.
We will still have a student speaker, and do our usual food drive collection. Non-perishable food items from "old" PGM-ers are welcome and may be dropped off at any time at the College of Social & Behavioral Science offices. In this time of economic stress, your food donations are welcomed by those in need. We usually give our donations to the Claymont Community Center, who serve a wide geographic area.

This is also a reminder to complete your service projects for the past year, and be sure to update your info on the Discussion Boards ad include pictures when possible. If you cannot attach pics then email them to Mr. Scott George, who is the Co-Advisor for this chapter.

Chapter Co-Advisor Scott George will be holding several PGM meetings to get you engaged with several of the service projects, as well as the Polar Bear Plunge. No doubt you have heard from Stephanie Sczcerba about the Polar Bear Plunge. Many kudos to Stephanie for organizing this event! We hope to have great participation from you this year and will be enjoying a great social time and brunch at the Rehoboth Beach site before we plunge!!

In the spirit of maintaining a sense of community, ALL Pi Gamma Mu members are invited to attend our first annual alumni group gathering at Kid Shelleen's in March. This year we got our PGM alumni group off the ground and invite you all to stay connected with Pi Gamma Mu even after you graduate! Many kudos to Rick Carter, Melody Jones, Patricia Spratley, and Stephanie Sczcerba for kicking the alumni group off to a good start! Our goal is to establish an active and vibrant PGM- BETA Chapter alumni community who can serve as a valuable social and professional network for each other.

Be sure to keep the alumni office posted regarding your change of address or email-- in the meantime-- remember Scholarhip & Service! Keep well- JPB
