Alpha Sigma Tau information is now available through the Internet, on the Worldwide Web. The Alpha Sigma Tau National Home Page became offi­cial at the annua l ation al Council meeting in January 1996.

The page function as a publicity and communication tool for the so­rority, promoting Alpha igma Tau glo­bally with general information and an­nouncements, collegiate and alumnae chapter listings, philanthropic infor­mation , Convention updates, a li t of e-mail addresses for AlT sisters, and more. The page is fully interactive, with links to chapter web pages , other Internet Greek sites, and e-mail.

(!~£~ Chapter Excellence Program by Cluistina Duggan Covinuton, Alpha Lambda

Imagine: Your collegiate chapter winning

one of Alpha Sigma Tau 's most presti­rrious honors at the ational Conven­"' tion , the Founders Award. As you make your way to the head table amid the congratulations of other co llegiate chapters, the chee r , and the applau e to accept the award , your mind recalls the activenes , elf-reliance, and trust your chapter member placed in each other to receive such an honor. You re­member the quiet study time a t the li­brary each week and th e acti e class oriented sister study groups that evolved. These activities e nabled your chapter members to increase th eir av­erage GPA by 0.6 for the year, pleasing the ch apter me mbers and their par­ents. You think of th e finan cial ac­co unt that your chapter started three year ago. The funds a ll owed yo_ur chapte r to renovate th e chapter su_Ite thi year, and attend the RLW wnh twice the required membership so that 50 % of yo ur c h apte r co uld return bringing new ideas and a n ation al AI-T awaren e s to the chapte r. Those ac­counts al o enabled your ch apte r to send five women and your Chapter Adviser to Convention to live the ex­perience of being "Anchored withAl­pha Sigma Tau. " Finally, you remem­ber the chapter Sorority Growth and Development programming on topic ranginrr from e thni c di vers ity to women'~ health issues. Don 'tforget the Sisterhood activities like dynamic rush and pledge programs that enabled your chapter to fi ll quota and mee t total. Your chapter is th e example!

Imagine: You are an area alumna living close

to a collegiate chapter. You graduated a few years ago and moved to this are~. You have a successful career, your clul­dren attend school, and you and your husband are active with several profes-

Your respon ibi lities are to communicate and a si t th e local alum­n ae chapter in supporting a co llegiate chapter. You contact th e local chapter and set a meeting for lunch with the Ch apter Pres id e nt a nd Col legia te / Alumnae liaison . You decide to pla n a joint formal for Founde rs Day which attracts many area and chapter alum­nae. The celebration is a huge succes , and the next year five recent graduates of the collegiate chapte r and seven area a lumn ae j oin th e local alumnae chapter. You are nomin ated for presi­d ent!

Our Garage Sale in June was in­deed a spec tacular success. We raised over $400 for our chapter and on a day tha t the temperature hit about 95 de­grees and the humidity about the same. We had a g reat time bargaining with everyone and loved it when we aw a man approaching. If they liked what they aw, th ey never bargained, just paid the sticker price. Maybe we should have a male only garage ale next year! Special th a nks to Marilyn Chri ty, Carlotta Sale mi , Joyce Berg a nd Diana Mihaiu.

Carlotta Salemi hosted our H o li­day party thi year and a wo nderful time was had by all . Our gift exchange is always fun and it wa amazing how many of the gifts matched what every­one wanted. We do not draw name , we just bring in a gift to exchange and p lay a card game to see who gets first pi c k . Laura Pobursky Alfred wa thrilled when she received an apple d ecora ted napkin holder a h e had just d ecorated her kitch en in apple d ecor!

We look forward to 1996 and to th e many pecia l things we will be do­ing in that year. We are working on Convention and trying to get a man of the alumn the re as po ible. Our special congra tula tion to Chri Bronk on h er engagement.
