8. Hold an annual meeting for the purpose of soliciting recommendations and identifying needs of the undergraduates to better provide a facility that will be competitive in amenities and offerings.

Section 5: What MUST the Graduate Brothers DO for us to accomplish these goals?

1. Give Time! Each of you should thoroughly look over the available support positions for an area in which you could be an asset to the organization and contact the appropriate person(s) to get started.
2. If you don’t have time to give; give money! The accomplishment of our goals is going to take both people and financial resources. If because of your present situation, you are unable to provide yourself to the Fraternity, we ask that you make a donation to the house corporation. This will allow those who can give time to move forward with all due diligence toward their perspective tasks.
3. Register on the TFI/TFAA website and encourage others to do the same.
4. Spread the word. Share this information with Graduates who were not able to be here this weekend.

Section 6: What MUST the Undergraduate Brothers DO for us to accomplish these goals?

1. Address the small problems around the house before they become large problems.
2. Take special care of the current Chapter House. We know the house is old, but a lot of the damage is due to plain old neglect.
3. Help us get the word out. Some grads may not be able to make Pig Dinner, but most of them get the GEF; ask TFI if there is anything that we would like to include in the publication.
4. Be open to the new Graduate Support. If the Graduates come through on their part, the Chapter will start to see a lot more guys getting involved and willing to help. Welcome them in. Let them know what is needed of them, and how they can help.
