FAQs
What platform will be used to stream the Virtual Recognition Ceremony? Our Virtual Recognition Ceremonies will be streamed via YouTube Live. A viewing link will be provided to all registered participants ahead of the event. No account or login is required to watch, and the ceremony can be viewed from any device with internet access. The event will also be recorded and shared on BGS social media platforms.
My chapter has already planned an event. Can I still participate in this? This event is designed to support all of your efforts this year—it is not intended to overshadow any events hosted by your chapter. You and your members are welcome to attend the societywide virtual ceremony in addition to your chapter’s recognition events. Attendance is completely optional.
How do members register? We are sending invitations to all new members who have joined since June 1, 2025. You may also share this invitation with your students. Every student wanting to attend should RSVP individually.
Can faculty and staff attend a ceremony? Yes! Advisors, admins, deans and faculty/staff are welcome to register for whichever ceremony fits their schedule. Please share this with any deans, faculty or staff so they can RSVP.
Will new members' names be included in the presentation? During the ceremony, registered members' names will be shown in the on-screen presentation. Please note: Only those who both opt-in via the registration link and register by the specified date will be added to the presentation.
Will participants be allowed to turn their cameras on during the ceremony? No. Since we are now streaming our Virtual Recognition Ceremonies via YouTube Live, members will not have the option to turn their cameras on. The ceremonies will still be recorded and shared on BGS social media platforms, and all members are welcome to engage by watching live and celebrating in the chat.
Can members attend more than one BGS Virtual Recognition Ceremony?Members are welcome to register and attend multiple BGS Virtual Recognition Ceremonies; however, please only opt in to having your name shared once.
