Events and Activities
The Alpha Kappa chapter of AGS generally meets weekly during the fall and spring semesters. Every effort will be made to alert members of meeting cancellations in advance via e-mail and this web page.
AGS chapter service projects are determined by the membership each semester. Chapter presence at OCC campus-wide and club events is also encouraged. Volunteer time dedicated to the chapter or for a campus or community service project will be recorded, and may help students compete for special leadership and scholarship awards.
See the list above for planned on-campus events.
The Fall 2009 AGS/Southern Regional Conference will be held at Pasadena City College on Saturday, November 7th. This is an all-day event featuring short workshops and seminars on a variety of topics (in previous years, topics have included establishing personal credit, understanding the pro/con arguments presented in election literature aimed at voters, employment opportunities in Japan for bachelors-degree holders to teach English, strategies for chapter fundraising and recruitment, crafts projects for chapters, and scrapbooking for chapter historians). An exciting keynote speaker, AGS marketplace, chpater photos, opportunity drawings, and much more are offered at each conference. Attendees also receive a light breakfast and lunch as part of their registration fee (this year registration is $30).
Members who are interested in attending a conference should attend an upcoming chapter meeting to obtain more details about this opportunity. You may also email the chapter advisor for more information.
