It’s been nearly a year and a half since the DZAA website was re-vamped, and we began posting regular articles that (we hope!) would provide our Alumni with updates, news, and opportunities that would be important to them.

This post is, believe it or not, our 200th consecutive post to the DZAA website!!!

200

We hope that this website has become an important part of your weekly routine, as it provides a means whereby you can stay in touch with your Brothers and fellow Alumni – where you can learn what’s going on in their lives, and they can find out what you’ve been up to. Certainly, this website would not be the success it is without each and every one of you and the contributions you have provided over the past year and a half.

It isn’t always easy keeping up with three new posts to the website (every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, for those of you who haven’t been keeping track!), particularly in finding information that would be directly relevant to our Alumni. But that’s where you have played such a large part! With our “Where Are They Now?” articles, the “Chi Phi Heroes” articles, as well as some of the more personal stories that some of you have shared, you have helped keep the website not only relevant, but also poignant and memorable. And for that – we thank you!

We appreciate your continued support and feedback, and here’s looking forward to the next 200 posts!

As many of you will recall, when the DZAA website was re-launched this year, 50Jubilaeumwe made the promise of regular updates and news items that are relevant to the Alumni, to Chi Phi, and to all of our Brothers.  With 50 web-postings now under our belt, the website continues to grow – not just in appearance and postings, but also in readership and online hits as well!  With well over 200 hits in the past month alone, the website has become a steady check-in for many of the Alumni!

The website offers new posts to the front page every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and after some miscellaneous articles in the beginning, we’ve created a regular schedule of articles – including the latest_news1Where Are They Now? features, the every-Monday Chapter News and Alumni News updates alternating each week, the DZAA Heroes spotlights, the Fundraiser highlights, the Around the Peninsula newsflashes, the President’s Message, the Social Events, and others.  Your Board has been working hard to keep you informed, updated, and occasionally reminded of days past, and if the positive feedback we’ve been receiving is any indication, you – the Alumni – appreciate the constant feed of posts.

Now, after four months and 50 articles, we’d like to see what you have to share.  If you have stories you’d like to tell, memories you’d like to share, news you would like to post, or perhaps even a little self-promotion you’d like to get out there, now’s the time to do it!  update-2Whether it’s a one-time article about something either you or another Brother has achieved, or an on-going series of articles related to the Alumni or Chi Phi in general, just let us know and we’ll be more than happy to work you into the schedule.  Remember, the DZAA and this website is not just about the Exec Board – it’s about ALL of the Alumni, and the more you participate, the closer those bonds of Brotherhood will grow.  Feel free to contact any member of the Board – David Ebner, Kyllan Purdon, Todd Latoski, or Ryan Suarez – and let them know you want to write.  Who knows?  The next posting you see on here could be yours!
