  • Announcements:
    • 1) Google docs- new way of recording hours. Link will be e-mailed out. You can update and edit the hours accordingly. Remember we're working on the honor system. There will be a heading for each service, and you can enter the total # of hours you worked at that service yourself. Talk to Alison if you have any questions or are confused as to how it works!
    • 2) Requirement of 20 hours this semester. Will be spread across 4 areas of service:
      • Service to the Community - 10 hours
      • Service to the Fraternity - 3 hours
      • Service to the University - 5 hours
      • Service to the Nation - 2 hours
    • 3) There will be a repercussion for dropping out without 24 hours notice. This
      will work so that if you are signed up to do 3 hours of service, and you drop out outsideof the time frame, you will have those 3 hours tacked on to your semester total hour requirement.
