FALL 2014 NEWSLETTER Iron Arrow Honor Society the HIGHEST HONOR ATTAINED at the UNIVERSITY of MIAMI FALL 2014 NEWSLETTER Iron Arrow Honor Society THE HIGHEST HONOR ATTAINED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI A Message from the Chief Greetings Tribe Members! On behalf of the officers and myself, welcome back to another action packed academic year at our beloved University! We hope your summer was filled with the happiest of memories, but that you are charged and ready for the upcoming semester. In this newsletter, you will find the “official” Fall 2014 schedule, the biography of our phenomenal Fall 2014 Tapping Luncheon speaker, and many other noteworthy announcements. Be sure to check out the bios of our most recent Spring 2014 Tap Class! 2014-2015 OFFICERS As I ponder what is in store for our Tribe this upcoming year, I am reminded of one of my favorite Iron Arrow takeaways: no matter how many accomplishments or accolades we achieve, our C. CAITLIN GILES work as leaders is never done. This duty to lead does not end upon one’s admittance into Iron Chief Arrow, but is a renewed commitment in our day-to-day lives as students, working professionals, 305.562.2478 and community activists. Thank you for continuing to represent the Tribe and University as model [email protected] examples of true leadership, scholarship, character, humility, and love of alma mater. Because of your tenacity, commitment, and vision, we have proven our resilience and successfully advanced BRAD BRADSHAW alongside our groundbreaking University. Son of Chief That being said, there is always room for more growth and I hope to continue steering us in the 214.335.4842 right direction. As a tribe, how can we continue our work as Iron Arrows? This year, I believe one [email protected] answer to that question is to address what it means to BE an Iron Arrow. The first business meeting will address our plans to better the tribe through a more objective and fair selections process. KARAM ALAWA Ultimately, my goal for selections—one of the most unique and honorable traditions on our campus Medicine Man —is to reinforce the high standards I see represented in each and every one of you. I hope 786.325.1075 throughout the upcoming year, you feel this theme of growth in all that we do. From expanding [email protected] outreach for outside recommendations to creating a comprehensive education process for new tapping classes, the officers and I promise to work tirelessly in order to propel us forward. In conclusion, I’d like to leave the Tribe with a challenge to continue our work as leaders, COUNCIL OF ELDERS starting with the organization itself. Come to our events. Reach out to new members and share old JOHANN A. ALI memories. Expand the Iron Arrow community through nominating the best and the brightest. ROBERTO CASTRO Uphold the standards of our five pillars in all that we do. And finally, have fun! We are the keepers of MYLES A. COCHRAN tradition at the University. That is a pretty DAVID McDONALD, Sr. serious, yet awesome job. As such, this year is STEVEN PRIEPKE going to be both highly entertaining and ELIZABETH M. RODRIGUEZ effectively reformative. I look forward to seeing you all throughout the upcoming semester C. RHEA WARREN (especially you out-of-towners!) and as always, please email or call me if you have any questions or concerns.
