Committees

We have several committees throughout the year that we participate in.
If you would like more information regarding our Service, Fundraising, or Social committees please email an officer!

The Committees that Gamma Beta Phi will be utilizing will be:

The Executive Committee is the major committee of the chapter. It normally consists of the officers and committee chairs (it's makeup should be specified in the By-laws). General policies and activities are planned by this committee for presentation to the membership. This committee is responsible for seeing that the standards of membership are maintained and it handles all disciplinary actions (see Article VII, section 4, of the Constitution. The President normally would chair this committee, unless the By-laws specify otherwise. The Advisor is expected to attend the Executive Committee meetings and thus should always be invited. His or her counsel is of great importance.

The Program Committee makes up a schedule of proceedings for regular and special meetings of the chapter, secures outside speakers, and prepares printed programs for banquets and induction ceremonies.

The Social Committee plans and arranges social meetings of the chapter. Among its duties would be arrangements for refreshments and decorations.

The Publicity Committee is responsible for publicizing the chapter's accomplishments to the public in a dignified and circumspect manner. An organization's vitality and usefulness is frequently judged by its publicity. Good publicity not only gives the public interesting and encouraging information, it also makes for good morale among the members and builds up a sense of pride in the chapter and the Society. When the organization is held in high regard for its ideals and achievements, it encourages greater effort on the part of all. The Vice-President should serve as chair of the Publicity Committee because of his or her need to be fully informed on all activities of the chapter. Many chapters prepare a chapter newsletter to send the members each month. Sending news and pictures for publication in The Gambet and preparing a chapter scrapbook are important aspects of this committee's work.

The Projects Committee is responsible for planning the chapter's projects designating a committee member to lead each project. The committee must be careful to involve as many members as possible. This committee should work closely with the Publicity Committee to insure that projects are given proper publicity.

The Induction Committee is responsible for conducting the membership drives in a thorough and efficient manner.

The following is designed to make the chapter leadership aware of projects that have been done by chapters; and are still being done. Your chapter may wish to do the same or similar projects. In all likelihood as you read this list of projects, other possibilities will be generated in your mind. If your chapter develops a project not listed here, please let Headquarters know.
