Recording Secretary

During the Mu Lambda Chapter meeting brothers will be asked to nominate and vote on membership to the corporation board. The Corporation has a15-member rotating board.

That is, each year 5positions become vacant. Incumbents are eligible for reelection. This year, two of the five incumbents will not seek nomination or re-election. Therefore, qualified and interested brothers should make their desires known. The board is especially in need of brothers with strong leadership skills in housing and urban development, real estate design and development, and fi nancial planning.

Brothers, please develop your thoughts and prepare your questions ahead of time. Ihope to make this avery informative, yet very involved
