It's
Time To Get Involved!
FMO is in the process of raising $60,000 for OUR
Financial Freedom Campaign!
We're going to use this money for scholarhips, the enhancement of programming
of all satellites and affiliates
and the building of a FMO memorial.
We need your help!
The money is beginning to roll in so let's keep it coming!
We ask that you guys ask your parents, friends, family or any other interested
individuals for financial support!
In order to attain our goal we need everyone to pitch in.
Since all of you will benefit from these funds it would be fantastic if you
could all help!

Become a Moderator for Bridging the Gap!
Description: The moderator's primary purpose is to facilitate the
dialogues on a bi-monthly basis ensuring the participants meet the program's
problem statement:
Northwestern students tend to self-segregate. Inadvertently and at times
intentionally, we are categorized on the basis of race, ethnicity, class,
sexual orientation, or religious faith. The separation is particularly
emphasized within Northwestern's Greek community. Students experience a
profound disconnect between Greek organizations, which fosters misconceptions
and indifference towards one another. There is a desperate need for candid
conversation and increased interaction between individuals and groups of different
backgrounds and with different affiliations. Bridging the Gap seeks to provide
the forum for this type of conversation through dialogue facilitated by two
trained moderators and a group of engaged participants who are members of the
Greek community..
The individuals selected to moderate will receive a two-day training
facilitated by representatives from the Sustained Dialogue Campus Network
Office. The training will most likely occur the weekend after our
first week of classes.
Please complete the following application and return to Abby Longbottom at abbylongbottom@gmail.com
by FRIDAY, MAY 30. Use as much space as necessary in order to adequately answer
the questions.
