Our ice breaker activity led off with the “Privilege Walk” (shared from a previous DEI program Natasha attnded.) (The following excerpt was borrowed from Eastern Illinois University) “Everyone will stand in a horizontal line in the middle of the room. All participants will have their eyes closed until the end of the exercise. As the facilitator reads a statement or question, the participant will step forward or step back if it applies to them. If anyone feels too uncomfortable to take a step, they have the option to remain still. *Facilitator should give participants a heads up about the intensity of the exercise that could provoke certain emotions. Ensure them the room is a safe space (mentally and emotionally) for conversations to develop at the end of the activity. Objective: Raise awareness of various forms of privilege; understand the intersectionality of race, socioeconomic class, gender and other demographic variables that shape individuals; appreciate the diversity of individual backgrounds; and team-building”

This past weekend 2 members of Alpha Chi Omega were able to travel to Atlanta for the Southeastern Greek Leadership Association Conference.
Each February, hundreds of fraternity and sorority leaders throughout the southeastern U.S. converge on Atlanta to attend the Southeastern Greek Leadership Association Annual Conference. The Academy is a three-day educational conference, that features something for everyone, regardless of his/her role in their community.
Well-known educational speakers anchored the SGLA conference curriculum. At least one general session covering broad fraternity and sorority issues was scheduled each day. Smaller, more-intimate breakout sessions were also scheduled daily. Breakout sessions provided a variety of opportunities to discuss specific challenges, learn new ideas and interact with fraternity and sorority leaders from around the region. Both students and advisors found programming geared specifically toward their varied interests and challenges.
The SGLA Awards Banquet wrapped up the conference. Member institutions and individuals were recognized for their hard work as well as their outstanding service and dedication to the fraternity and sorority movement.
