Dear ,
Don’t miss an opportunity to present a keynote address at the 2019 NGLA Annual Conference!
The Association plans an annual conference each February that attracts over 1,000 fraternity and sorority members from over 100 campuses across the Northeast. This year the 2019 NGLA Annual Conference will be held February 28, 2019 to March 3, 2019 in Hartford, CT.
We are soliciting applications from presenters we might consider for one of three keynote addresses. Each keynote is crafted with an ideal topic in mind. We encourage you or someone that you know that would be ideal for this program to apply by Monday, August 20, 2018.
Throughout the conference, three keynote addresses are scheduled:
Opening Keynote | Thursday Evening (75 Minutes)
Simply put, this session sets the tone for the whole conference. This session should cover one of the following requested topics: - Being proud of being a member of the Greek community
