3 POST-PANDEMIC TRENDS PREDICTED TO AFFECT 2022

The post-pandemic collegiate atmosphere has created opportunities and new challenges for fraternity and sorority leaders. Our houses may be open, but COVID has left its mark.

Join us as two industry experts, Allan Lutes, President of Alpha Fraternity Management, and Bill Reeder, President of Campus Cooks, share their thoughts on trends that are changing housing operations for today's fraternities and sororities. We'll touch on:

  1. How supply chain issues will affect chapter budgets, operations, and planning for 2022/23.
  2. How the Greek housing, dining, and overall expectations have evolved over the past 5 years and tips to handle today’s students.
  3. How the decline of alumni volunteers and the loss of a “live-in class” have impacted chapter traditions and institutional knowledge.

We'll wrap up with a discussion of one of the biggest challenges facing house corporations and facility directors.

This webinar offers important information, advice, and tools for anyone tasked with managing a house -- advisors, alumni, alumnae, chapter presidents and treasurers.

December 31st is right around the corner and there's a lot to be done between now and then. Are you ready?

Join Alpha Fraternity Management and Columns Fundraising to review the activities you need to be taking now to ensure success in 2021. We'll talk about where you should be with leases, budgets, capital planning, how to shore up reserves, and what your year-end fundraising push should look like. We'll also spend some time on contingency planning… What if your campus goes/stays all remote in the spring? What if you have an empty house?

RESTORING THE COMPETITIVE HOUSING ADVANTAGE

Competition posed by other campus housing options is greater than ever. College dormitories and new luxury apartments provide amenities that college students and parents desire. However, fraternity and sorority housing programs can provide competitive advantages that students want.

Join Alpha Fraternity Management and Columns Fundraising to learn how to create and deliver the competitive advantages that will keep chapter house occupancy high, provide your members with valuable skills, advance your group’s mission and deliver a better member experience.
