Depending on the size of the organization either there is a separate office with a board or the pledge master office is combined. If there was a problem you can go this person and usually the MRB is made up of 5 members, and 1 pledge.

Also I have to make sure there is enough supplies for all the offices and last I have to try to keep communication within the chapter.

President

He has a fun job he is the cheerleader of the group. He is promoting inside and outside of the chapter. He has to maintain leadership and responsibility towards with nationals, campus officials and make sure the chapter has a good name. He also realized recognition that exists is spring class namesake, chapter certificate-DSK, and last distill membership to someone who is not a member and does great things for our chapter. He also has to make sure money is paid on time for nationals.

Opening for nominations

There is a limited amount of people with offices this year

Some options we have is keep current offices, switch to semester by semester for the May graduates or redo office reconstruction 7/9 people are willing to hold offices annual

Renee

Thinks pledges should take lower jobs

We should do this semester by semester until we get our numbers high again

>From the bylaws certain offices have to be annual

Richelle

Think pledges should do any office
