A Message from the President

Dear Fellow Kappans,

First, let me welcome you to our website. The executive board has finalized a calendar of events, and we look forward to seeing many of you at our meetings. Please refer to our Newsletter for up to date information.

In March, Dr. Michael Sarnoff and Dr. Katie Sarnoff of the Café of Life, will speak to our membership on wellness and how to navigate the road to living painfree. In April we will host our annual initiation ceremony. Also in April, we hope to tour the new education facilities at Rowan.

Phi Delta Kappa will celebrate its centennial anniversary this year. What a great way to become involved, build fellowships, and exchange ideas with your professional peers. With over 250 members in our local (Zeta Nu) chapter, it is disheartening not to see members return after initiation.

Realistically we all have busy schedules. However we also know an organization can only survive by participation. We need you! We need members to become involved in all facets of our organization. The executive committee is currently in need of a historian, a secretary, and a foundations chairperson.

I am not one to project doom and gloom, but our future depends on membership participation and involvement. Please make an effort in 2006 to attend at least one meeting. With your help we can make improvements and bring innovative and educational programs to our members. Our survival depends on it.

Sincerely,

Joseph Camardo,

President, Zeta Nu Chapter 157
