2 Dear Greek Week Representatives, Welcome to the wonderful world of Disney Classics Greek Week 2018! We hope you are as excited as the Executive Team and Steering Committee is for making this the most successful and enjoyable Greek Week yet! A little about why we do what we do. Greek Week is an opportunity to shed the stereotype that Greek Life is all too familiar with. It is about showing loyalty to others beyond our own chapters and having the personal courage to help those that are less fortunate. It is our duty as a Greek Community to come together help those in need of our assistance. Sometimes we lose sight of things bigger in life and forget those not given the same opportunities as we receive. This week shows different organizations and communities that we as Greeks have the ability to come together as one and be a part of something bigger; the opportunity to foster a change, to impact a group of people and become closer as a community along the way. As we prepare for this week, we would like all of you to keep in mind the purpose of Greek Week. It s not about the points gained, or the trophies won, but the lasting impact left. We as a community have the unique ability to change how Greek Life is viewed. However, this perception can only be changed if we take the steps necessary, together. One chapter alone has the potential to make an impact yes, but a community, brought together by common ideals has the potential to move mountains. This week is devoted to helping our community in a fun and enjoyable way, so please keep that in mind. As always, sportsmanship says a lot about character, and we believe Greeks are the epitome of good character and strong values. This being said, we expect a high level of appreciation for all teams participating, the guidelines set out, and the overall approach of the week. If we all choose to approach this week with a servant s heart, and a positive mindset it can be enjoyable and rewarding to us all. In my eyes, even though there are placements and awards of achievements given out to individuals and chapters, the real winners are the lives that we have impacted by our good deeds. Best wishes, Director Kmbaich1s@semo.edu

3 Statement of Ethics The Office of Greek Life, the Greek Week Executive Board, and Steering Committee realize activities such as Greek Week support the mission of Southeast Missouri State University and therefore play a vital role in a Greek s education. We further realize that these activities provide important life skills concerning teamwork, sportsmanship, and more importantly, giving back. Through friendly competition, Greeks learn about the impact they can potentially make on a community and how to steer away from the stereotypes we are all too often surrounded by. Code of Conduct All Greeks attending and participating in an event shall not violate the alcohol and drug policies of Southeast Missouri State University or the Greek Week Alcohol Policy during any event related to the festivities of Greek Week (outlined on the next page). During an event, all Greeks attending and participating in that event are expected to conduct themselves in a manner of sportsmanship that will reflect positively upon the Greek System, Southeast Missouri State University, and the local community. The goal of Greek Week is to give back to our community, but coursework must remain the primary focus of each student. Each Greek is expected to maintain their classroom performance throughout the duration of Greek Week and the time leading up to Greek Week. All officials and participating organizations are expected to be treated with respect and civility during an event by all Greeks participating and attending said event. Enthusiasm is an inherent aspect of all competitive events; however, all participants are to maintain a level of respect for themselves and those around them. Any violation of these above policies or general disregard for the spirit of Greek Week shall be dealt with first by the Officials of Greek Week and Greek Life Staff, and second, if need be, by the Interfraternity, Panhellenic Judicial Board or Office of Student Conduct (whichever is applicable). I,, of (Chapter President) (Chapter) have read to my chapter the above Greek Week Code of Conduct and my chapter and I understand and agree to abide by it.

The name and chapter affiliation of that person will be noted and points will be removed at the discretion of the Greek Week Executive Board. 2. If the individual refuses to dump out and/or forfeit their alcohol, they will be escorted from the event by a Greek Week Exec member, Office of Greek Life, any officiating Greek Week personnel or DPS. 3. Anyone escorted from an event will not be allowed to participate in any further Greek Week competitions. 4. A second violation of the alcohol policy by an individual or chapter will result in a complete expulsion from all of Greek Week. 5. If there is an individual third violation and/or multiple members from each party (party is defined as: an individual chapter or multiple chapters) found in violation of any of the Greek Week Alcohol policies, Greek Week Exec has the right to remove the pairing from the remainder of Greek Week and or forfeit their ability to place in Greek Week.

12 Fundraising 75 points Steering Committee Member(s): Brian Lamb Various Dates Various Locations Various Times Where is the money going? The money raised by each chapter will contribute to the monetary donation portion of Greek Week. The money will then go to the United Way to help several organizations in the Cape Girardeau area that they deem in need. The pairing that raises the most money will be able to donate 10% of their proceeds to the charity of their choice. Due to the success of the Shivering Slide, there will not be one large fundraising event this year. Rather, fundraising will be through individual events held by chapters. *Shivering Slide fundraising will count towards overall fundraising. We would like to stress that not all of the money for fundraising has to come from one event; chapters are encouraged to put on other fundraising events to reach the goal of $3,000. The more money raised, the more United Way benefits and the more points your Greek Week team can earn. Points *An extra 10 points will be given to one pairing that raisees over the $3,000 goal Gold: $3,000+ per pairing Silver: $2,000+ per pairing Bronze: $1,000+ per pairing Less than $ points 50 points 35 points 20 points * Only the pairing with the largest amount of fundraising money can claim Gold and receive the extra 10 points, totaling out to 75 total points for fundraising. ALL fundraising money will be due BEFORE THE START OF GREEK SING. Any pairing that does not abide by this rule will not receive ANY points towards their fundraising goal and will be disqualified for Greek Week Fundraising money may be turned into Kimberly Baich or Brian Lamb. 12
