One Year Later…

Can you believe it has already been one year since the DZAA website got up and running? On August 11, 2013, our DZAA President, Brother David Ebner, posted the very first website article, inviting all of the Alumni to participate in the DZAA’s first USF/Chi Phi Scholarship Scramble. And now, here we are, exactly one year and 150 website postings later, and we’re still going strong!

Just a reminder that this website is all about YOU! We’re here to provide articles and postings that keep you informed, not just of what’s going on with the Alumni Association, but also with news about the Chapter, about other Chapters in Florida, about National news, about local USF news, and basically anything that would be of noteworthy interest to YOU!

So please remember to share your feedback – let the Exec Board for the DZAA know exactly what you like seeing, what you don’t want to see, and what you’ve haven’t seen yet that you do want to see. And if you’ve got something to share, please feel free to do so – this is YOUR website!

Here’s to the next year and the next 150 postings!!!

 

 

 

To Those Who Have Paid – THANK YOU!

THANK-YOU

The Delta Zeta Alumni Association would like to extend a special THANK YOU to all of the Alumni who have started this fiscal year off right by paying their dues without delay.

To each and every one of the above Alumni – THANK YOU! The payment of your dues is what helps the DZAA continue to flourish and provide events for the Delta Zeta Alumni. If you don’t see your name up there, what are you waiting for?

The annual dues for each member for the 2014/15 fiscal year is $50. For more information about the annual dues, how to pay, and where to send payment, contact our DZAA Treasurer, Ryan Suarez, at dzaa1983@gmail.com.

Archiving the DZAA

The Delta Zeta Alumni Association is currently looking for someone to volunteer to assume the role of Archivist for the DZAA. The Archivist would catalogue the photos we have into a digital archive that will  go onto the website for dues paying members to view. This would include scanning the print photos we have and possibly taking photographs of various memorabilia and even some of the pictures that we are unable to scan (due to the fact that they are in giant books or pages of minute books). The cataloguing part will be a joint effortm as Alumni look at photos and identify the people in the picture, where they were taken, and an approximate year of when they were taken.

While the archiving will require a lot of work, rest assured, there will be plenty of people to help. We anticipate the project to take at least two to three years to complete. The position will take some time commitment from the Alumnus who volunteers, but the time frame for completing is completely within your schedule. We would only ask that you provide us with some measurable monthly progress, against which we will be able to project a timeline for completion.

Outside of the main project of archiving photos, the Archivist will also be responsible for caring for the items themselves. This does not mean that the items need to be housed at the Archivist’s residence; but it does mean they need to be stored and maintained in a safe place for which the Archivist has access (such as a storage unit).

It is our hope that as the DZAA is continuing to flourish in recent months, it will encourage the Alumni to step up and assist – and that one Alumnus will come forward and volunteer for this person to help organize and keep the DZAA history alive for all of us!

If you are interested in the position, you can reach out to the DZAA President, David Ebner, on Facebook, or by e-mailing to dzaa1983@gmail.com
