Greetings Brothers, It is with enthusiasm, overwhelming pride, deep humility and some sadness that I await your arrival at our 6th Boule, to be held July 14-17, 2011, in the city of Miami, Florida. It will be after all, my last Boule as your Supreme Basileus, but this promises to be the Boule to be remembered, as we get down to the business of learning, sharing and building for the future of Delta Phi Upsilon in our daily plenary sessions. There is much to be discussed and voted upon, so make certain that you have been involved in the regional and chapter discussions on the budget, bylaw changes and recommendations, so that you will be knowledgeable about the decisions you are requested to make. This is truly one Boule you don’t want to miss! In true Delta fashion, we will again make history as we inaugurate our first Boule Community Service Project, proving that Delta Phi Upsilon, through its 25 years of “Building Better Brothers,” continues to have an immeasurable impact not only on GLBT African-American life and culture, but also upon the larger society. Come celebrate our legacy of brotherhood in the birth region of our great fraternity. Come celebrate yourself, your chapter, and most especially, your leadership and your service efforts It will not be all business, however. Even as we gather to review, retool and continue the growth of Delta Phi Upsilon, we will have time to take in all that Miami has to offer as we relax, reflect, remember and reconnect with each other in the sun and sand of Miami. We have rolled out the red and old gold carpet, right to the door of the breathtakingly beautiful Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club, which will serve as our host hotel. Please make your reservations early and use our official airlines (see page 19) for your travel needs. Continue to check our web site at www. dphiu.org for Boule updates. I look forward to seeing you in sunny Miami. Yours In The Bond,

6TH International Supreme Basileus

Boule Etiquette This information is being provided to heighten your awareness of the impact that your personal behavior has on Delta’s national reputation and its relationships with business suppliers, supporters, partners and the general public. Each of us has a responsibility to represent the Delta brand in the best light possible wherever we go and in whatever we do. This holds true regardless of whether or not we have our log or letters emblazoned across our chest. What people think of YOU, they will think of DELTA, and remember, IMAGE is everything! Etiquette is the art of knowing and using the appropriate behavior and protocol for different types of human interactions. It means having good manners in our dealings with others in order to show respect, kindness and consideration of others. It is with this in mind that we ask all Boule attendees to please observe the following common courtesies and protocols while in attendance at Boule 2011: 1. Refrain from discussing Delta or Boule business in public areas (lobbies, hallways, elevators, etc.). You will be surprised what hotel personnel and others learn from our casual conversations when we are not paying attention. Please save your conversations for the privacy of your room. 2. Be courteous to everyone at all times. Even when faced with a problem, do your best to handle it with tact, professionalism, temperance and a smile. You can get much further by using a smile coupled with diplomacy when tackling a problem. DO NOT “read” hotel personnel! 3. In the interest of ensuring that everyone has an enjoyable experience at Boule, and to minimize the Fraternity’s exposure to risk, no one will be allowed to harass others, form protests or use meeting space not assigned to them. We must be able to disagree peacefully and respectfully. For the protection of all attendees, the Philacters are empowered to maintain an orderly environment. 4. Remember to tip hotel personnel. Tipping is first and foremost, a reward for prompt, attentive and courteous service. 5. Above all else, act like a gentleman. When you do this, your behavior will be above reproach. *Please see the Boule Convention Guide for additional etiquette/protocol guidelines.

6TH BOULE - JULY 14-17, 2011 ∆ MIAMI, FLORIDA

Tipping Etiquette When it comes to travel, it’s the smallest detail, such as tipping etiquette that can become the most confusing. Whom should you tip? How much? Do you need to tip at all? Never fear!! With this simple guide to tipping, we’ll take the guesswork out of tipping etiquette and help you focus on more important things — like enjoying the Boule. Personnel you should remember to tip: 1. Sky Cap (checks your bags at the airport) 2. Shuttle Driver (loads and unloads your luggage onto the shuttle) 3. Hotel Valet (removes your luggage from the car and hails the taxi for you) 4. Bell Captain (ensures luggage arrives in your room) 5. Valet Parking Attendant (brings and returns your car to the garage) 6. Housekeeping/Maid Service (cleans your room every day during your stay) 7. Mail Room/Business Center Attendant (delivers boxes or faxes to your room) 8. Hotel Concierge (recommends and makes special arrangements)

GUIDE TO TIPPING The following are recommended standard amounts for tipping. You are welcome to tip more than the standard amount as this is just a reference guide. Remember, if someone went above and beyond, please reward them. PERSONNEL
