Event Details
Knowing we can never be perfectly prepared for every situation that may happen, high-level crises hit our campuses daily. As fraternity and sorority professionals, we have many constituencies who are looking to us to make grounded decisions. The challenge is, in those moments, we are everything but grounded. This session will talk through strategies and best practices when it comes to major campus crises and the decisions around system wide pauses or suspensions. Join us for a conversation, as we will attempt to prepare you with the tools to make the best decision that is right for your campus, at that specific moment in time.
Learning Outcomes
As a result of attending this program, attendees will…
- Summarize the role of a fraternity/sorority professional in stakeholder management during crisis situations
- List key partners and resources that can provide support in crisis response and decision making
- Recall strategies for communicating and managing through crises as a fraternity/sorority professional
AdvanceU is a virtual based classroom with educational programs specifically designed to enhance the alignment of the fraternity/sorority experience with the changing dynamics of higher education. AdvanceU programs provide AFA members the opportunity to engage on a wide range of topics with content experts who develop curriculum with a specific set of learning outcomes geared at achieving higher levels of professional competence in our members. AdvanceU is provided by the generous support of Zeta Tau Alpha through an endowment with the AFA Foundation.
