I can’t believe that the year is already 1/3 of the way along. What happened to this semester? It is flying by.
Delta Alpha Pi International has felt the economic downturn. How? The number of new chapter applications has slowed but …. 2010 is off to a good start.
We are welcoming 4!!!! yes that’s right, four new chapters.
Edie and I would like to welcome Alpha Mu – Lamar University, TX; Alpha Nu – University of North Texas; Alpha Xi – University of Central Florida and Alpha Omicron – University of Texas at Arlington. It seems the word of DAP is spreading in Texas.
So at last count we have 39 chapters in 20 states. That is a milestone for DAP. Thank you all for your support and continued interest in DAP.
On another topic, what have you done this semester? Tell us about your initiations, service activities and students. I will add that information to our chapter news page. Are you noticing more of students with disabilities on the Dean’s list?
The Alpha Chapter held the initiation a few weeks ago. We have added another honorary member to our DAPi roll – Richard Harris, former Ball State University Director of Disability Services and national lecturer. Mr. Harris spoke at the Alpha DAP initiation and a public lecture “Was Polio Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Log Cabin”?” Richard, thank you for a wonderful presentation!
And what has your chapter done that you wanted to brag about?
Back soon,
Juli
