Basecamp Attendee Identification – Basecamp 2020 is just ONE month away which means it is time to start identifying the new members in your chapter who you would like to represent you at our annual Emerging Leaders Retreat!
Each chapter must identify 4 potential participants (2 primary, 2 alternates), please submit their names by Monday, October 5th, 2020 at 5pm using this form link: https://forms.gle/eLACassapf8uwZNL7. The FSL office will contact all participants for next steps. Please email fsl@uwyo.edu with questions.
New Membership Agreements & MRABA – As your chapters add new members, please remember to have them complete the FSL Membership Agreement on UW Connect under the FSL page Forms (student must be signed in) within 48 hours of accepting a bid. Women who participate in NPC recruitment will be added automatically after bid day. Women who join an NPC chapter through an informal recruitment process must also complete the NPC COB MRABA form on UWConnect. Under the FSL page Forms.
National Hazing Prevention Week – Thank you to all who attended the National Hazing Prevention Week speaker, Lauren Phillips, last Thursday! Lorin presented relevant examples of textbook and micro-hazing culture and gave useful tools on how to address it within our organizations. Please review the recorded session. You will have access to it for 30 days.
Member Monday – We want to highlight our amazing members every Monday. Please follow this form: #MemberMonday to fill out some information about yourself in less than five minutes and you could be highlighted on the FSL social media platforms in the future!
FSL Ambassadors Fraternity Men Needed – We are looking to add more men to our ambassador team! If you know of anyone who you think would be a great fit, please email fsl@uwyo.edu. We hope to diversify our team with chapters that are not currently represented.
Recruitment Update – Our associate sorority chapters have begun their recruitment efforts; our NPC sorority chapters continue their informal recruitment efforts; and our men’s organizations are continuing to extend bids and hold recruitment events. If you have recruitment events that you want publicized, please send them to StudentOrgs@uwyo.edu for additional marketing across campus.
Phase 3 (Sept. 28) – In-person functions resume with maximum capacity up to 50 people (if space permits). Social distancing and masks will be expected. Attendance will need to be tracked via UW Connect attendance tracker for contact tracing purposes. More details and guidelines will be released as we get closer to Phase 3.
Phase 4 (begins Nov. 23) – Move back to virtual functions only. We are trying to stay on top of the changing times. If you have questions about future activities and planning something during phase 3, please email StudentOrgs@uwyo.edu and we will work with your organization on an individual basis.
No Off-Campus Exceptions – If you are gathering as a chapter, these expectations are applicable to BOTH on-campus and off-campus gatherings because you are gathering as your organization which is affiliated with the University (similar to if you were traveling for your chapter, you would be representing the University of Wyoming in that space at that time). Questions about the phased re-opening can be sent to fsl@uwyo.edu.
Reducing Spread – Masks, physical distancing, and handwashing/hand-sanitizing are the key to reducing the spread of this virus. Practicing these things now will increase the likelihood of in-person events actually taking place. PLEASE do your part to wear your mask in ANY public setting, on or off-campus, wash your hands regularly, and maintain physical distance of 6ft or more between people you are not regularly with.
