Dear Sisters, It was a thrill to attend Alpha Phi’s 68th Biennial Convention in July. I joined hundreds of alumnae and collegians to celebrate Alpha Phi and our accomplishments over the past biennium. One of the highlights for me was the “Celebrate Alpha Phis” luncheon at which we heard from four Alpha Phis who received very prestigious awards from the Fraternity. You will have a chance to meet them in this edition of the Quarterly, and I’m sure that you too will be inspired. Another highlight for me was being installed as Alpha Phi’s International President during the Candlelight Banquet. I am honored to serve our Fraternity in this role, and I look forward with excitement to the coming biennium. Editor’s Note: Below is an excerpt from Linda Boland’s speech given at the Candlelight Banquet, July 10, 2010: More than 137 years ago 10 young women created something extraordinary and left it to us. We in Alpha Phi have been entrusted with a great legacy. Women like Mary Carr Boyd (OmicronMissouri) and Ruth Himmelman Wright (Sigma-Washington) understood this, and they took their responsibility seriously to care for our beloved Fraternity, to nurture it and watch it grow. Alpha Phi has chosen a very ambitious path for the near future. Years ago, leaders in our Fraternity began laying the groundwork so that one day we might have these opportunities. During the course of this biennium, we will take some carefully calculated risks, and if we hope to be successful it will require all hands on deck. It will take a fully committed International Executive Board and a solid partnership with my friends the regional managers, regional team members and extension team leads. It will require the support of the Fraternity’s best friend, the Alpha Phi Foundation and the hard work of our crack, second-to-none Executive Office staff. And, chapter advisors who are nodding but thinking to yourselves, “What could I possibly do to help Alpha Phi International?” You are Alpha Phi International, and I’ll tell you what you can do. You can continue to keep your chapters healthy and strong. The responsibility to leave a strong legacy doesn’t belong to alumnae alone. You, my collegiate sisters, share in this obligation. Ask yourselves, what will my legacy be? When I’m gone, what will chapter members say about my leadership? Did I leave my chapter strong and poised for success? Did I inspire committed new leaders to take the reins? Did I make sure that we filled our membership roster with the finest women available to us on campus? Do the members of my chapter live the values we all pledged ourselves to? And did I lead by example? My young friends - do these things and protect your legacy. Let us renew our vows that we will always remember and never forget our responsibility to preserve, protect and perpetuate the great legacy that is Alpha Phi.

Alpha Phi Toujours,

Linda Long Boland (Gamma Kappa-CSU/Long Beach) International President 2

Alpha Phi Quarterly

By Arden Schuman (Iota Eta-DePaul)

Is Alpha Phi ready for the communication revolution? the answer is yes.

Fast Facts • The fastest growing segment on Facebook is 55-66 year old females.

During Alpha Phi’s 2010 Biennial Convention, Executive Director Linda Wells Kahangi (Zeta Delta-Iowa State) asked the question “Are we ready? Are we changing and adapting to keep up with the way our newest members communicate?”

• 1 in 8 married couples in the U.S. met online. • The mobile device will be the world’s primary Internet connection tool in 2020.

Her answer: a resounding yes.

• The average college student sends around 295 text messages per month. • 80% of companies use social media for recruiting. • 60 million status updates happen daily on Facebook. • There are more than 200,000,000

blogs.

• It took radio 38 years to reach 58 million users. It took Facebook less than a year to reach 200 million users. • If Facebook were a country, it would be the third largest. • Barack Obama raised $55,000,000 in campaign funds in one month using online social networks. • Ashton Kutcher and Britney Spears have more Twitter followers than the entire populations of Sweden, Israel, Switzerland, Ireland and Norway. • The computer in your cell phone today is a million times cheaper, a thousand times more powerful and about a hundred thousand times smaller than one computer at MIT in 1965.

Before 500 Convention participants, Linda unveiled Alpha Phi’s newest online developments, including a new website that allows you to set up a personal page and personalize your Alpha Phi experience, a mobile site that will let you access Alpha Phi documents on the go and locate a chapter house using your smart phone’s map function and a Facebook app that will enable you to easily connect with sisters from your chapter, city or even interest group. “But,” she continued “two challenges remain. First, the majority of our members are not collegians. We must remain thoughtful about not leaving our builders and baby boomers behind. If we move too quickly and completely, we will lose touch with some of our most valued members – who may not use technology to communicate at all, or who may just be trying e-mail or Facebook for the first time. “The second challenge is that technology is ever changing. Generation alpha, homelanders - or whatever the marketing world decides to name the generation just being born - may find Facebook and laptops to be passe’. Their world will be centered on their mobile device, which they will surely have by the time they are in grade school. Alpha Phi will truly have to come to them. And we will.”

Alphaphi.org Nearly two years in the making, AlphaPhi.org has been transformed into an innovative recruitment, resource and communication tool. Prominently featuring our logo and branding, the new site features profiles and accomplishments of our members and chapters and an interactive timeline. The member page allows you to personalize your Alpha Phi website experience in order to bring forward the information and features that are most important to you. Once you’re logged in, you’ll be able to do things like choose the chapters you would like to receive news updates from, search for sisters easily, customize your page by adding a photo, update your information and share personal updates with your sisters. The site even knows if you are a collegian or alumnae, and if you are an officer, so it can make sure the resources and tools that are important to you are easy to find. It helps you stay current with International alumnae dues and make donations to the Foundation.

Mobile Visit AlphaPhi.org on your mobile phone and you will automatically be sent to the mobile version. The mobile site gives you easy access to the latest Alpha Phi news along with a handy chapter locator that will work with your mobile device’s mapping capability to help you get to the chapter house of your choice. It also provides a more mobile-friendly view of the other main areas of the Alpha Phi website for those times on the road that you need to look up information quickly. Whether you are a potential new member running off to your first recruitment party, an officer needing access to a form on the go or a member looking to get the latest updates from the Executive Office and your chapter, the mobile site puts Alpha Phi at your fingertips!

Facebook App The Alpha Phi Facebook application is home for groups connected by collegiate chapter, alumnae chapter or common interests. Members are able to share personal announcements and upcoming events, post pictures and videos, join discussion groups and message boards, and search for sisters on Facebook.

More than 500 Alpha Phis and guests attended the Fraternity’s 68th Biennial Convention July 7-11 in Miami, Fla.The Doral Golf Resort and Spa was the backdrop for sisters from across the U.S. and Canada to conduct business, build leadership skills, renew friendships and celebrate the success of Alpha Phi. Led by Director of Training, Development and Communications Denise Jung Reens (Epsilon DeltaNorthern Illinois), the four-day event featured awards ceremonies, a special Foundation dinner celebration, Red Dress gala, initiation, dynamic speakers and educational sessions. Highlights Educational sessions provided chapter advisors, collegiate and alumnae delegates, regional teams and house corporation board members with practical knowledge that will be utilized by their chapters. House Corporation Board Seminar, Alumnae Chapter College and Regional Team Strategic Forum tracks were offered during Convention. Advisor Academy provided three levels of training prior to Convention. Convention participants learned about the launch of Alpha Phi International’s redesigned website, the new technology associated with it and plans for the future. The Alpha Phi Foundation celebrated a special milestone – exceeding the goal set two years before during Convention 2008 by raising more than $10.2 million in Alpha Phi’s “$10 million by 2010” Campaign for Leadership. The Foundation also hosted a Red Dress Gala (see page 18). 4

Those attending had the opportunity to browse the Foundation information area, as well as learn about Alpha Phi’s founding in the Heritage Room. The room featured museum-like displays of Alpha Phi Founders, audio of letters written by the Original Ten and a historic badge display, all created by Foundation staff archivist Dr. Jenny Thompson (Alpha Lambda-Alumna Initiate). Docents included members of the Foundation’s heritage committee. Convention attendees could also shop a variety of vendors during breaks at the Market Place. Past International President Phyllis Sims Selig (Gamma Delta-Kansas) led the Service of Remembrance and Initiation. The SOR included a special tribute to Mary Carr Boyd (OmicronMissouri) and Ruth Himmelman Wright (Sigma-Washington). Music Consultant Judy Kay Schmidt Mead (Delta Gamma-Northern Colorado) and Samantha Conter (Theta Xi-Shippensburg), who will take over for Judy as she retires, lifted their voices in song throughout Convention. The Candlelight Banquet was an inspiring conclusion to a memorable Convention.

Awards and Honors Toastmistress and IEB Director Deana Koonsman Gage (Gamma IotaTexas Tech) hosted Saturday’s “Celebrate Alpha Phi Leaders” luncheon and awards presentation. Director of Collegiate Operations J.D. Louk, Director of Collegiate Recruitment Linda Schnetzer (Beta Omicron-Bowling Green State), Director of Alumnae Membership Alissa Meyer Milito (Zeta Xi-Elmhurst), Manager of Resources and Training Initiatives Stefania Rudd (Theta Rho-Cameron) and IEB Director Amy Jordan Tvrdik (Omicron-Missouri) hosted a joint collegiate and alumnae chapter awards presentation that played out like an awards program on E! Entertainment Television. Foundation Executive Director Emily Ellison Lamb (Gamma Iota-Texas Tech) presented the Alpha Phi Foundation’s prestigious Martha Mast Awards as part of Friday’s Convention Assembled session. The Foundation also recognized top philanthropic collegiate and alumnae chapters during Friday evening’s dinner. Awards for the outstanding and most improved alumnae chapters and outstanding collegiate chapters and advisors were presented during Saturday evening’s Candlelight Banquet. Foundation Board Director Laura Jen Kin Berger (Gamma Kappa-CSU/Long Beach) served as toastmistress for the event.

Distinguished Sister Series Meet four sisters who were honored during Convention 2010 with Prestigious Fraternity Awards Frances E. Willard Award Top Lawyer, Women’s Rights Advocate Receives Fraternity’s Highest Honor A partner at Horvitz & Levy LLP, Mary-Christine “M.C.” Sungaila’s (Kappa-Stanford) appellate practice focuses on cases raising cutting-edge toxic tort issues. She has received multiple awards and recognition for her work, including listings in the Best Lawyers of America (2010), the Top 50 Southern California Female Super Lawyers (2008-2010) and California’s Top 75 women litigators by the Los Angeles and San Francisco Daily Journals. M.C. has gained national prominence as a gender equality expert, as she has worked to secure important rights for women and girls throughout California, nationally and internationally. She has served as pro bono counsel of record or consulted on more than 17 women’s and civil rights cases before the United States Supreme Court, the Inter-American Commission, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and the California Supreme Court and Courts of Appeal. M.C. is also the board president for Break the Cycle, a non-profit organization that engages, educates and empowers young people to build lives and communities free from domestic and dating violence. In the speech delivered at Convention, M.C. said, “You may say: I am one person. I can do very little, especially to effect change around large-scale problems. But I am here to tell you it is possible – even necessary – for each of us as individuals to stand up for what we feel is right, just, fair and humane. Individual courage is integral to creating change.” She noted three cases in which she was involved, including that of UVA student Yeardley Love, killed earlier this year, allegedly by her boyfriend. “[The case] raised questions about legal protections for dating teens. Break the Cycle, a teen dating violence organization for whom I serve as board president, had recently released a ‘report card’ of protections for teens in dating relationships for each of the 50 states. We wanted to get the word out about these laws, and change some of them.” M.C. and the executive director wrote two opinion pieces about the state of domestic violence protections for young people that were picked up by media across the U.S. This led to discussions with the Virginia Attorney General’s office about improving the law’s reach for teens. M.C. concluded, “You can and should strive to make a difference too. In the words of Harriet Tubman: ‘You have within you the strength, the patience and the passion to reach for the stars and change the world.’”

Martha Foote Crow Award Rhodes Scholar Is Recognized for Excellence Ugwechi Amadi (Zeta Phi-MIT) was the inaugural recipient of the Martha Foote Crow Award, which recognizes individual excellence and commitment to the core principals of the Fraternity. Ugwechi was selected from more than 1,500 applicants as a 2010 Rhodes Scholar. A brain and cognitive sciences major, Ugwechi was chosen on the basis of high academic achievement, integrity of character, a spirit of unselfishness, respect for others and potential for leadership.

Ruth Himmelman Wright Award Music Chair, Long-time Volunteer Honored for Service Judy Kay Schmidt Mead (Delta Gamma-Northern Colorado) is the first recipient of the Ruth Himmelman Wright Award. This new award honors the memory of Ruth, a beloved lifetime volunteer who exemplified the essence of Fraternity service, and did so without fanfare. Judy Kay began her Alpha Phi involvement as a field secretary (now called educational leadership consultant) immediately after graduation and has continued to actively support the Fraternity throughout her adult life. Her name is synonymous with music in Alpha Phi; she has been the international music chair for more than 30 years and has led generations of Alpha Phis in song at Conventions. She has kept Alpha Phi’s songs relevant and preserved older songs, publishing five editions of the Alpha Phi Songbook. In addition, she has served on the International Executive Board, the Foundation Board of Directors, the Committee on Leadership, and as 10

Upper Midwest regional manager, as well as several other positions. Many chapters have improved in recruitment as a result of her assistance. In her acceptance speech, Judy Kay said, “As you know, in Alpha Phi we are all recipients of countless gifts from the past - from those we never knew, and those who are with us no more. It is incumbent upon us to remember women like Ruth ... her sisterly caring, her many contributions of time, talent and treasure ... the essence of Fraternity service. Ruth was a mentor, friend and sister since we met in 1966, and she always took the ‘high road.’ I am grateful to her for believing in my spirit and abilities. “Ruth and I were alike in that we both believe Alpha Phi is a force for good in this world. We both felt we didn’t need to be thanked - our work and the joy of it were reward enough. That being said, however, it is a privilege and an honor to accept this award in her name.”

She has researched post-traumatic stress disorder and atherosclerotic restenosis at MIT. She has researched the effect of age on the atrophy of brain regions traditionally implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease at Massachusetts General Hospital. She is also active in mentoring middle school girls. As a Rhodes Scholar, Ugwechi began her studies at Oxford this fall and will pursue a master of science degree in psychological research.

Lily of the Valley Award Advisor Awarded for Red Dress Gala Concept As a first year advisor for Loyola Marymount (Zeta Beta), Michelle Jones Thompson (Omega-Texas) brought to the chapter the concept of establishing a signature fundraising event that would serve as a campuswide marketing tool. Under Michelle’s guidance, Zeta Beta conceived the idea of an Alpha Phi fundraiser featuring silent and live auctions. Word of Zeta Beta’s success quickly spread, and Michelle and the members of Zeta Beta were pleased to share their blueprint with other chapters. Over time, their efforts revolutionized the way that Alpha Phi’s collegiate chapters raise money for the Alpha Phi Foundation. In 1996, Zeta Beta hosted the first event of its kind in Alpha Phi. In 2010, more than 75 percent of our chapters across North America have hosted and continue to host Red Dress Galas in support of the Alpha Phi Foundation. Zeta Beta has since raised over $400,000 in total for the Foundation, and the chapter’s success inspired many others to set and reach extraordinary fundraising goals. Collegiate chapters have collectively raised millions of dollars for the Foundation using the blueprint originated by Michelle and the members of Zeta Beta. These funds support scholarships, educational leadership opportunities, helping sisters in need and creating a heart for giving back to local communities. The Alpha Phi Foundation is now recognized as the interfraternal leader in collegiate chapter fundraising. In the speech she delivered at Convention, Michelle said, “I am both thrilled and honored to represent the women of the Zeta

Beta chapter who had the vision for this event, the courage to wade into uncharted fundraising territory, and the dedication and determination required to build on its success. “This was by far the easiest group of women to inspire that I have ever had the pleasure of working alongside. I give all the kudos for planning and implementation to the amazing women in the chapter! “Events like this do not become a success without an impressive amount of support – from parents, advisors, fellow student groups and university faculty and administration – all of whom showed no hesitation in jumping in to buy tickets and open their wallets to support the efforts of these women. “The women of Zeta Beta had a dream of leaving their mark and making a lasting impact on the work of our beloved Fraternity. They never let go of that dream, and they continue today to be one of Alpha Phi’s collegiate leaders in Foundation fundraising. On behalf of these women, it is with heartfelt gratitude that I accept this award and encourage all collegiate chapter leaders to leave a legacy of excellence … and all collegiate chapter advisors to inspire the women they work with to achieve and exceed their goals so that Alpha Phi will continue to be the sorority of first choice!”

early 1,000 silver stars twinkled overhead on Friday night of Convention, each representing a five dollar honor donation to the Foundation. Suddenly, music filled the room, the bass causing everyone’s pulses to race just a little … it made you want to DANCE. And dance we did … In a “Dancing with the Stars”-style event, five “celebriPhi” dancers partnered with professional Miami dancers and choreographers to showcase their skills and the charitable programs of the Foundation. Each performance inspired votes – with dollars – by the audience members. The Foundation also celebrated its collegiate and alumnae Partners in Philanthropy winners, who raised collectively nearly $2 million during the past two years, and every sister who gave a special gift to the Foundation’s Campaign for Leadership.

Alpha Phi Toujours Heartfelt Gift Makes History, Ensures Future An illness … a fire … an accident … Alpha Phis in crisis.

Feb. 18, 1876: Our Founders voted that upon graduation, all members would make a gift, of whatever amount they could afford, to be used “exclusively [to] assist needy lady students.” We’re still helping Alpha Phis today … through the Foundation. “Our Forget Me Not Fund depends on annual contributions right now,” says Foundation Chair Linda Gardner Massie (Delta Alpha-East Carolina). She adds, “Our Forget Me Not Endowment – which provides continuing income specifically to help sisters and grows throughout the years – is very small.” During these precarious economic times, an increasing number of Alpha Phis need aid. Helping these women – all of whom have distressing stories – is a priority, Linda says.

A donor speaks

A chance meeting with an alumna (who prefers to remain anonymous) convinced the Foundation Board to make its Forget Me Not Endowment Fund a focus of major gift fundraising for this biennium. Here is the heart-warming story of how a major bequest will aid the Foundation in helping sisters in need. When Suzanne (not her real name) was 23 years old, she made her first will. She says, “Alpha Phi Foundation and my university were beneficiaries even then. The Fraternity was an important part of my college life that I remembered fondly then and still do today. The friends I made are still part of my life.” 20

Alpha Phi Quarterly

fall 2010

She told the Foundation of her bequest intent and became a member of the Clara Bradley Burdette planned giving society. For the next 30 years, Suzanne had a successful career, lived conservatively and watched her assets grow. Inheritance from her family, as well as her strong work ethic, soon made her realize that she had a significant estate and no family to share it. “I talked with my university development office and said I thought I’d like to set up a scholarship fund. However, the university staff convinced me that they had other needs that would be even more important to them, and that fit beautifully with my interests,” she says. “Suddenly I realized that my bequests to my university and to Alpha Phi Foundation shouldn’t just drop into these organizations with no planning. I needed to be more specific with what I wanted done with the money I was leaving to my favorite non-profits.”

There is a project in Alpha Phi that appeals to each of us. We need to find it and make it happen. We need to assure the future of our beloved Fraternity. Suzanne read the Quarterly faithfully and became convinced that the Foundation had a great need: endowing the Forget Me Not Fund to make it a major funding source for the Foundation. “I read that the maximum size of Forget Me Not grants had stayed the same for decades,” she says. “Even though the cost of living had quadrupled, the Foundation was able only to grant the same amount of aid to our sisters who were having difficulties

in their lives. Some of the stories I read about were tragic, and the recipients deeply appreciated receiving grants. I felt that Alpha Phi needed to consider inflation and increase its assistance to these women, so I wanted to do something specific.” During a meeting with Foundation staff members, Suzanne stated that she would like to make a major bequest – the largest the Foundation has ever received – to be directed to an endowment for the Forget Me Not Fund. This would ensure that her gift would work forever to help Alpha Phi sisters in crisis. Foundation staff welcomed the idea, agreed on the need, and told Suzanne that no sisters had ever established an endowment for this wonderful purpose. The Foundation’s Board, hearing of Suzanne’s generosity, realized that this biennium would be the time to focus on this fund. Suzanne’s generous bequest kicks off a special major gift fundraising effort for the next two years: building the Forget Me Not Fund to help sisters. What better time to focus on helping needy members than during a time when so much heartache has come to our society? Suzanne is delighted to know that her bequest is leading to this special fundraising effort. “Women need to know how important their wills can be to an organization like Alpha Phi,” she says. “I feel so good knowing that my research into the Foundation’s mission caused me to propose this endowment and also was an impetus to the Foundation Board to focus on Forget Me Not fundraising.” Suzanne encourages members to remember the Foundation in their wills as soon as they make them. “I never would have thought it possible that my hard work would help the organization I love so much help other sisters in such a major way,” she says. She also suggests that members read carefully information from the Foundation about their mission and that they talk with Foundation staff members about the Foundation’s ‘wish list.’

“There is a project in Alpha Phi that appeals to each of us. We need to find it and make it happen. We need to assure the future of our beloved Fraternity,” she says. Please contact Executive Director Ann Brinkman Carstensen at 847.316.8950 or acarstensen@alphaphi.org about making a sustaining gift to the Alpha Phi Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization. Consult your tax advisor about your estate and tax deductibility.

From the Heart … Forget Me Not Grant Recipients Say Thank You “Right now I am without words. I feel so grateful and blessed to be a part of an organization like this. This assistance from the Alpha Phi Foundation will allow me to get closer to being back on my feet and moving forward with my life. I feel like a huge weight has just been lifted off my shoulders. I cannot wait until the day that I can give back to the Foundation to help others, just as it has helped me. Thank you so much. I am so grateful.”

-Elyce “In 2008, I was lucky enough to have been given a Forget Me Not Emergency Grant during a time when I thought I might lose everything I had. That emergency grant ultimately kept me from bankruptcy and foreclosing on my condo. Today, I have a permanent job, my medical and credit card bills are paid, and I was able to keep my home. I am so grateful and humbled to have all of this during such tragic economic times for many. When I pledged Alpha Phi, I never imagined that I would ever be in such need, and moreover, that my sorority’s foundation would be there for me in such an awesome way. Tears well up in my eyes to think of how far I have come since that time, and how I could not have done it without the gracious help of the Foundation. Thank you so much for believing in me and helping me in such a great time of need. Alpha Phi continues to mean so much to me, and I cannot think of enough ways to thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

Alpha Phis Lobby in D.C.

wo Alpha Phis were among the members of NorthAmerican Interfraternity Conference (NIC) and National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) Greek organizations who participated in congressional visits in April in Washington, D.C. Aliza Fishbein (Zeta OmicronJohns Hopkins) participated as Alpha Phi International’s collegiate representative for a second consecutive year, and Lory Fraraccio Kenney (Eta Gamma-Akron) attended as an alumna representative. Over the last several years, the Capital Fraternal Caucus has scheduled these visits to lobby to pass the Collegiate Housing and Infrastructure Act (H.R. 1547/S. 781). The bill is critical for Greeks and other not-for-profit student organizations because there is currently a disparity in the way the tax law is written for not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organizations. If one were to donate money to a university or college, the institution could use those dollars for any purpose, including building dormitories. That same donation to a not-for-profit student housing organization like a fraternity or sorority could not be used for building infrastructure. The ability to provide safe housing to students is a top priority to Greek

Aliza Fishbein is pictured with Congresswoman Lynn Robinson Woolsey and Lory Fraraccio Kenney during the NIC/NPC lobbying conference in Washington, D.C. organizations; however, they are unable to raise the funds needed to upgrade their houses. Currently only 39 percent of Greek houses have fire sprinkler systems, and the average cost to retrofit a house with fire suppression equipment is $48,000 and can be up to $250,000. Fire-related deaths are the leading cause of death for college and university students. There has never been a student fatality from fire in a house with a sprinkler system installed. Participants discussed the bill and its importance and were trained in

lobbying technique. They met with staff and Congressional members, including Rep. Lynn Robinson Woolsey (Sigma-Washington). The congresswoman credited the visit for her endorsement of the bill in a speech she made at the political action committee dinner. As a result of this year’s visits, the bill gained an additional 28 representatives for a total of 213 co-sponsors in the House and an additional senator for a total of 29 co-sponsors in the Senate.
