DKG International Committees - Sharing and Strengthening!

The International Constitution, Communications and Publicity, and Membership Committees, as well as the Editorial Board, have met at Society Headquarters. Nearly 70 percent of the members of these groups are new to international committee work. All are leaders in their state organizations and catylsts in their chapters.

The Constitution Committee has its work cut out. This is a Constitution biennium. That means that any member, chapter or state organization may submit proposed constitutional amendments to the committee, for consideration, for the 2014 International Convention in Indianapolis.

The Communications Committee is actively involved in strengthening the Buzz about the Society. They are also updating the criteria used to approve chapter and state organizations requesting linkage of their websites to the Society website www.dkg.org
.
Members of the Membership Committee are exploding with excitement and ideas as to ways to connect with state organization membership chairs. This committee has a relentless, compelling desire to help members better understand and share the benefits of belonging to the DKG Society.  We have so many exemplary chapters. Some are struggling. Since the chapter is the heart of the Society, and the member, the lifeblood, this committee is focused on providing assistance and support to state organizations, as they increase their efforts to strengthen chapters.

The Editorial Board is diligently upholding standards of high quality in evaluating manuscripts for The Delta Kappa Gamma Bulletin. The Bulletin is another opportunity for promoting the professional and personal growth of members through publication of their writings.

The Leadership Development Committee meets October 1-3, 2012,  Keep reading my blog for even greater things to come.
