Dear
Member,
The spring semester is here, which means it's time to get
back down to business after a long winter
break. With less than a year until the 2010 National
Convention, it's important that your chapter keeps things
running efficiently and gets all required fees and
documents submitted to the National Office in a timely manner.
Torch Topics is a great resource for tracking what's
coming up, what fees are, and when deadlines are, so keep your eyes
peeled each issue for new information.
The spring semester will surely bring new pledges, brothers and
opportunities for service. Keep up the hard work brothers! Also,
good luck to our seniors in their final semester of
school!
Torch
Topics Editorial Team
P.S. Keep sharing your chapter's news with Torch Topics and Torch & Trefoil. If you have an
event or news that you would like included, e-mail the
Torch Topics Editorial Team.
