Chapter News, Upcoming and Recent Events:
Members of Beta Gamma Sigma in Houston:
Help Revitalize the Houston Area Alumni Chapter. The Dallas/Ft Worth Area Alumni Chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma needs new volunteers. As a lifetime member of BGS who resides in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, we hope you’ll step up to the plate and get involved. The more members who say “yes” the less effort on any one person’s part – and the more fun everyone can have
Over the last several months, we have seen a lot of enthusiasm and activity generated by various BGS alumni groups around the globe, and I truly believe that you will find involvement in and the opportunity to network with fellow BGS member colleagues, a uniquely worthwhile and satisfying experience. Remember, you each graduated "the best" in your business programs.
What we have been hearing from other chapters is that by keeping the chapter activities simple, interesting, informal and inexpensive, it is easier to get busy people involved and allow a group cohesiveness to develop.
So, my request is that you reply to our office if you are willing to participate in this effort. We will be looking for several people to serve as point people: someone to identify a private room in a restaurant/pizza place/community center/board meeting room, etc. and located in a somewhat central, convenient location and where a group could meet and get to know one another. Any ideas or offers to assist in obtaining a location are welcome. As we move forward, there will be many more opportunities for involvement by all who are willing. The more people willing to assist in this effort, the smaller the task of each and the greater the opportunity to recharge the chapter into something of great value to you, its members.
We look forward to hearing from each of you. Email Jean Tucker at jtucker@betagammasigma.org or call at 314-432-5650. We truly believe that your involvement in this venture will be personally and professionally beneficial to you.
Dear
Beta Gamma Sigma member,
You
have already been recognized as one of the best in business,
we hereby invite you to join the rest of your outstanding peers
in the Houston Area Alumni Chapter on LinkedIn.
At a time when all of us are pulled
in many directions, with demands of our time from work, family
and other commitments, we hope to utilize the LinkedIn platform
as a convenient way for the Houston
area alumni to get in touch (and stay that way!).
Even if you are a member of the
national LinkedIn group, joining the subchapter will enable
you to get Houston-centric information on local events
and activities. In addition,
your comments on LinkedIn will help us determine what
kind of events should be organized, which speakers should be
invited, and which are the most convenient locations and times to
meet.
Eventually we hope to organize
events, once-a-month
geared towards -
· Expanding
your network
· Adding
to your professional development
· Mentoring
newcomers in the industry
· Giving
back to the community
If you are interested in any or all of the
above and want to accomplish it with the honor, wisdom
and earnestness each of us committed to at the time of
initiation, please get LinkedIn with us at the following link:

To become more involved in helping
to reactivate the Houston

We look forward to "linking
up" with you and having you on board!
