MESSAGE FROM THE NATIONAL PRESIDENT

Colleagues,

What an honor to be the new president of Delta Phi Alpha! We had a wonderful gathering in Orlando and send-off for John Reynolds and Ron Horwege, who have done such a fine job over the years. The German National Honor Society continues to grow with lots of new student members and a few faculty members each year. We are planning a gathering for San Antonio as well, at which we can discuss any questions, suggestions, hopes that you might have. Please, as a DPA advi-sor, try to attend this gathering at ACTFL/AATG in November which will be announced on our revised DPA website and by email to all of you. If you cannot make it yourself, please send a representative. It is vital that all of you not only continue to choose German honor students to be inducted into DPA each year, but that you participate fully as a faculty advisor. This will strengthen our society even more.

Sincerely,

Delta Phi Alpha President

Report From the National Secretary Treasurer

Minutes of Annual Board meeting: Nov 22, 2013 in Orlando, Florida In attendance: John Reynolds (JR) Ron Horwege (RH) James Davidheiser (JD) and Michael Shaughnessy (MS) Items discussed: 1. Raising the initiation fee to $25 and including a DPA pin with each certificate. After much deliberation, the motion to raise the initiation fee to $25 was approved. 2. Re-examining the scholarship process. Numerous options were discussed regarding scholarship options. The relationship with the DAAD was also questioned and suggestions about efficiencies were proposed. After discussion, no solution was proposed but the group suggested forming a committee to look into this.. 3. Finances: Question posed: how should we use additional funds generated by the sale of honor cords and pins? The group suggested that we might offer additional scholarships. MS suggested that we take a full account of our records to determine capacity to increase awards. JR gave an account of the history of the endowed funds and said that the tradition was to withdraw “not more than $2,000”. 4. Problems with the IRS and our tax-exempt status need reviewing. The IRS continues to be a problem by sending harassing letters to chap-ters. This deals with the 2006 decision to require electronic submissions from each chapter. Many chapters have lost their tax exempt status with no consequences. A solution is to possibly engage a CPA to investigate. MS will look into contacting a CPA to help resolve the IRS issues facing a number of chapters. 5. Incentive grants: A committee needs to be formed to evaluate Incentive Grant proposals and present guidelines for these grants. 6. Printing of the next Bulletin for 2014-2015. Who will do it? Mike Shaughnessy will handle the printing of the bulletin for 2014-2015. The start date is January 1. 7. Review of the Constitution and Ritual (red booklet), The group suggested that we leave the constitution as is since only a few issues have ever come up. The ritual was discussed and though antiquated and oddly formulated at times the group decided to allow the text to remain. 8: The meeting was adjourned. Submitted by Michael Shaughnessy
