March 2011 Newsletter
If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies. ~Author Unknown
It is with a bittersweet heart that I write this last “Rachel’s Ramblings” for the Central Arkansas AC monthly newsletter. It has been an honor to lead you, my sisters, as President of this group for the past 3 years. It has been an amazing 3 year journey, as we have grown from a group of 22 alumnae to currently 46 dues paying alumnae and over 160 sisters on our Facebook and e-mail list serv. We watched a new collegian chapter start from the ground that has grown into a thriving chapter of our sisterhood. I am so thankful for all of your work and support of our AC! I am excited for the leadership that Taylor is bringing to the office of President, as well as the ideas and leadership of the slated executive board. I still plan to be involved (and hope all of you will too) as I continue to serve our alumnae chapter as the Parliamentarian / Past President.
In addition I am excited to announce that I have accepted the position of Alumnae Panhellenic Specialist on the Alumnae National Leadership Team of Kappa Delta for the next biennium (2011-2013). In filling this new National Officer position, will work with the Alumnae NLT team to ensure that all 200+ Alumnae Panhellenics have Kappa Delta representation, and work with the NPC delegation on education materials for those in office. I am honored, excited, and a little nervous about my new position – but thrilled to serve our sisterhood on a national level.
Good luck to the new Executive Board from your biggest fan! In our KD, Rachel

In addition, VP-PR Kate Sorrell sent the following updates from the Zeta Gamma chapter:
We are really excited about Shamrock this year, and invite all alumni to attend! For the talent show, we have
received donations from all over Fayetteville for prizes during the show. Also, we have participants from every Greek House on campus to perform in the talent show. We are expecting the event to be a great success! Of course all of the proceeds will be going to Prevent Child Abuse America, and also locally to the Child Safety Center in Springdale, AR.
Also, the house is doing very well this semester that we would love to let the Alumnus know about.
1. We were named 4th in grades for the entire Greek community at the University.
2. Kacey Keefe, a Zeta Gamma junior, was named Miss University of Arkansas. This was a very big honor.
3. Kappa Delta was name the Best Sorority on Campus by the Arkansas Traveler.
4. Our snack kitchen was renovated over Christmas break, which has been an excellent update to the house.
5. Recruitment Practice has begun in preparation of the upcoming rush. The Greek Life Office is predicting a
quota of 150 girls for this upcoming year, so we are preparing for this large upcoming recruitment.
6. We had a successful Girl Scout Event on February 8, 2011 in which we taught some local Girl Scouts about bullying.
This semester has been very successful so far, and we hope to continue this trend for the remainder of the
semester! If you have any questions about anything feel free to email me at ksorrell@uark.edu at anytime. I am always happy to help.
