Enhancing Communication

2008-08-15T21:56:00.000-07:00

As I listened to each chapter this weekend at the National Conference in Memphis, TN the resounding message from each Active and Alumni was a need for increased communication among chapters, Actives and Alumni. In response to your requests we have moved quickly to create a Central Region website/blog. We now have a newly created ‘Phi Chi Theta Central Region’ group on the social Networking site Facebook and we also created a ‘Google group’ in which to share files and ideas.

I am very encouraged by what the group has accomplished so far and I am excited about the endless possibilities for this year!
