Over the Winter Interim, Andrew O’Brien (president) and Daniel Toutoungi (treasurer) attended a three day conference in Indiana called the Jon Williamson Futures Quest. This program is lead by the North-American Interfraternity Conference who provides leadership training to fraternity men from across the country. This specific program focused on developing communication skills, identifying personal strengths and weaknesses, making a commitment to fraternal ideals, and exploring ways to overcome the various challenges that may lie ahead. The day began early in the morning and stretched late into the evening with interactive sessions that were designed to keep every fraternity leader on their toes. The Deke brothers were each given a mentor who was an experienced fraternity leader that offered guidance throughout the process. They were also given the opportunity to speak with the current North-American Interfraternity Conference President, Peter Smithhisler (pictured below), as well as past NIC Presidents. Brothers O’Brien and Toutoungi returned to the Rho chapter with new leadership skills as well as ideas to improve the fraternity as a whole.
