President’s Blog

Hello Theta Phi Alphas,

As I write my first National President’s blog, I can’t help but wonder where have the last three months gone?  It feels like just yesterday we were gathered at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis for our 53rd National Convention.  Reuniting with old friends, making new friends, conducting the business of the fraternity, gaining knowledge from speakers, hearing the voices of our collegian and alumnae members, and electing our leadership for the the next biennium felt so good after canceling convention in 2020 due to the pandemic.  The Convention provided a compass to guide the 2022-2024 members of the Grand Council. I'd like to share with you where that compass is taking us.

You are not alone in Theta Phi Alpha. I encourage you to connect with your sisters, your friends. Theta Phi Alpha is about sisterhood and friendship, please take advantage of those connections. 

We know it's been an incredibly tough week for so many of you after witnessing the greatest domestic assault on our democracy since the Civil War. But it was also an ugly and unmistakable reflection of the systemic racism that plagues our society and deeply harms people of color every single day.

A lot has happened since I first shared Theta Phi Alpha’s plan to address equity within the Fraternity in June 2020.

The last week saw unprecedented actions to stop the spread of the coronavirus (also called COVID-19) in the United States. Every university is taking steps to keep their students safe. Theta Phi Alpha is doing the same - taking steps to keep our members and our staff safe.
