Headquarters and institutions of higher education are not immune to a weak economy. This session will explore historical data/wisdom of our environments during a recession broken down into four areas that are relevant to the campus professional and the inter/national organizaton professional. These areas are membership, fundraising (scholarships/grants), housing, and budgets. Each area will explore the trends that could occur, outcomes of those trends as well as best practices and resources that can help you and your students/staff weather the economic storm.

This program is intended for the both the new professional and the seasoned veteran. The expected outcome is for a better understanding of the changing dynamics both on campus and at the national headquarters. Participants should walk away with creative ideas on how to survive some of the economic changes. The program will be moderated by Jeremy Slivinski and Libby Anderson, both Fraternity Headquarters professionals that have also worked on campus in Greek Life. Other presenters specific to the areas of discussion will also participate either in the session or live via virtual meeting technology.
