APPENDIXAppendix A – Final Officer Report: Co-Member at Large Connor TerryDear Brothers of the Southwest District,I am both sad and filled with pride to be addressing all of you today in order to read myfinal report. When I attended my first convention in Waco, Texas back in 2013, I witnessedfirst-hand how important the district council is for our district to function. Immediately afterthat, I wanted and desired to serve on that council. When I missed my opportunity to run foroffice the following year, I was lucky and graced with an opportunity to run for the openMember-At-Large position. I cannot begin to describe to you that significant impact being oncouncil has had on my overall experience of being a brother, but I can try.When I stepped into my role as Co-Member-At-Large, I was in a unique position where Iwas not given any instructions on what had been done in years past, any past records of officerreports or charges. Essentially, I walked into my office blind, using only my knowledge fromthe constitution and a large array of questions to guide my path through my time in office. So itwas basically up to me to figure out my own goals for office. And while there were a fewsetbacks that occurred throughout the year such as temporarily fulfilling the duties of bothMAL positions, I was still able to achieve many of the things that I set out to do. After beingappointed into office, I had four main goals for the year:1. To communicate as much as possible with chapters, to the extent that I could haveover communicated information.2. To unite the chapters of the district on a larger scale, through encouragingcorrespondence and joint chapter events when possible3. Create the biggest and best Southwest District Scrapbook to date, with pictures thatshowcase the amazing talent and projects of chapters all across our great district.4. Simply have fun during my term as a District Officer.Communication is always, and forever will be a point of concern, contention, and debateat the end of each convention season. I implore you, however to consider well what I am aboutto say. Your district council have lives just as much as you, and we do all that we can to giveyou the information about district events, workshops, convention, new alto submissions andwhatever else you may need to know. However, there is only so much we can do or know thatyou need. If you have questions, concerns or your chapter needs clarification on what ishappening, you need to contact us. This year, I have been contacted personally by only a fewnumber of chapters. We are resources for you to use, and within the coming year, pleasecontact us. We can only help when we know our help is sorely needed.This year, I commissioned the Brotherhood project, which served to pair up chapterswho were geographically close to one another, but do not interact or socialize together. I foundit so strange that there were chapters out there who were less than an hour or two hours away,but yet never talked to one another or even knew the other chapter existed. From my time asan active, we always had great relations with the Delta chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi, despite the

80 mile distance between us. I felt inclined to instill this opportunity across the district, and setout to accomplish this. While the number of responses were many and after spending abouttwo hours pairing up chapters, the amount of participation I witnessed was far under myexpectation. If you signed up for the project, don’t think of it as being over when I leave. Ichallenge you to continue building relationships with those chapters, and growing yourbrotherhood within the district. If you did not sign up to participate, now it’s your time to“Answer the Call.” Get to know another chapter. Whether they are in your district area, inanother district area, or in the state of New Mexico, there’s no excuse to isolate yourselves fromyour fellow brothers.As for the scrapbook, you’ll see that later on during convention. But let me just say that Iappreciate all the chapters who sent me pictures throughout the year. This year 21 chapters outof the 54 send in pictures for the scrapbook. While this is still under the halfway mark, this isstill a wide improvement from submissions in the past. Chapters, please for the sake of myreplacement, submit photos regularly and often to the scrapbook. Also a huge thank you to allthe chapters who unknowingly submitted pictures to my computer by posting them on theirfacebook pages. The scrapbook has been the product of almost 30 hours of work, and after thisconvention, it is my hopes to have the file posted onto the district website, so your memberswho aren’t here can still see what they missed out on, and see how amazing our district is andcan be again for many years to come.I was also in charge of running the District Instagram account. So, if you have beenfollowing and liking the photos of @kkpsi swd (shameless plug, I’m not sorry, follow us onInstagram) then you’ve been theoretically following me all year. It is my hopes that in thecoming years with more scrapbook submissions, we can continue to showcase all the amazingthings that our chapters do year round. Originally this was my attempt with the account andmany of our less known off and less featured chapters. So if you want to be featured on theInstagram, it’s as simple as sending your District Council an email with photos and what youdid.As for the last goal, sometimes being on district council can appear to be intimidating,stressful and hard.

and in recent newspaper articles regarding Kappa Kappa Psi not being able to continue because their advisor needs to be a full-time faculty member. After reading the agreement on file at SAA, Kappa Kappa Psi is only required to have a director of bands as their advisor. Therefore, Kappa Kappa Psi will be able to continue with an advisor.
