IFC Presidents: Registration for PRIME Opens Soon
 
IFC Presidents have an enormous job. They are asked to lead their council effectively, establish relationships across campus, create a shared vision and guide their community toward positive change. These are no small tasks. We’d bargain the IFC President’s job is one of the most complex student leadership roles on campus and these leaders need greater support. PRIME: The Summit of IFC Presidents is a two-and-a-half day program each January that focuses IFC presidents on their role as community and campus leaders.
 
Registration opens November 1 for the upcoming January 10-12, 2020 program at the DoubleTree by Hilton at the Cincinnati Airport. NIC staff coordinate hotel reservations for participants – travel is on their own but there is a complimentary shuttle to and from the airport. The cost is $575 for a double occupancy room or $475 for a quad occupancy room.
 
Please direct questions about PRIME to Jackie Hackett.
