Eta Sigma Gamma Manual for New Initiates Into Collegiate Chapters
ETA SIGMA GAMMA Manual for New Initiates into Collegiate Chapters Revised 2020 Eta Sigma Gamma Professional Health Education Honorary National Office 2000 University Avenue, CL 325 Muncie, IN 47306 Forward A professional organization is a group of people bonded together with a common mission and goals. The organization is governed by a formal constitution and by-laws, which contain all the operational procedures of the organization. Eta Sigma Gamma is a National Health Education Honorary Society that offers a unique opportunity for pre-professionals and professionals of the highest caliber to work together toward common goals. Not only do individual members derive benefit from this professional Honor Society during the collegiate years, they also have access to an extended association with professional health educators. Members receive benefits from the Honor Society in the form of lifetime professional and social acquaintances. The purpose of this manual is to acquaint initiates with the history, governance, organization, and ideals of Eta Sigma Gamma. This manual will help initiates understand the mission and goals of the Honor Society as well as their own obligations to the organization. Since it is the responsibility of the initiates to have a thorough knowledge of their organization, they should be familiar with the materials contained in this document prior to initiation. The Founding and History of Eta Sigma Gamma The ideas and expressions of the founders and many professionals will always deserve an eminent place in the heritage of this national health education honorary. Early in 1967, the conceptualization of a national professional honorary society for women and men in the health education discipline was outlined by the founders while en route to a national conference. -

The Use of Gamma in Place of Digamma in Ancient Greek
Mnemosyne (2020) 1-22 brill.com/mnem The Use of Gamma in Place of Digamma in Ancient Greek Francesco Camagni University of Manchester, UK [email protected] Received August 2019 | Accepted March 2020 Abstract Originally, Ancient Greek employed the letter digamma ( ϝ) to represent the /w/ sound. Over time, this sound disappeared, alongside the digamma that denoted it. However, to transcribe those archaic, dialectal, or foreign words that still retained this sound, lexicographers employed other letters, whose sound was close enough to /w/. Among these, there is the letter gamma (γ), attested mostly but not only in the Lexicon of Hesychius. Given what we know about the sound of gamma, it is difficult to explain this use. The most straightforward hypothesis suggests that the scribes who copied these words misread the capital digamma (Ϝ) as gamma (Γ). Presenting new and old evidence of gamma used to denote digamma in Ancient Greek literary and documen- tary papyri, lexicography, and medieval manuscripts, this paper refutes this hypoth- esis, and demonstrates that a peculiar evolution in the pronunciation of gamma in Post-Classical Greek triggered a systematic use of this letter to denote the sound once represented by the digamma. Keywords Ancient Greek language – gamma – digamma – Greek phonetics – Hesychius – lexicography © Francesco Camagni, 2020 | doi:10.1163/1568525X-bja10018 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC BY 4.0Downloaded license. from Brill.com09/30/2021 01:54:17PM via free access 2 Camagni 1 Introduction It is well known that many ancient Greek dialects preserved the /w/ sound into the historical period, contrary to Attic-Ionic and Koine Greek. -

In particular, the Task Force should review the May 2010 draft for a timely report by ALA to LC. Review of subsequent tables may be called for, depending on the viability of this latest draft. The ALA-LC Romanization table - Greek, Proposed Revision May 2010 is located at the LC Policy and Standards Division website at: http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/greekrev.pdf [archived as a supplement to this report on the CC:DA site] BACKGROUND INFORMATION FROM THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS We note that when the May 2010 Greek table was presented for general review via email, the LC Policy and Standards Division offered the following information comparing the May 2010 table with the existing table, Greek (Also Coptic), available at the LC policy and Standards Division web site at: http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/greek.pdf: "The Policy and Standards Division has taken another look at the revised Greek Romanization tables in conjunction with comments from the library community and its own staff with knowledge of Greek. -
Six Sigma Metric Analysis for Analytical Testing Processes

Six Sigma is a widely-accepted quality management Unfortunately, there are few ways to compare systems system, perhaps best known outside of healthcare as the 1 on a level playing field to make an “apples to apples” product of innovation at General Electric and Motorola. comparison. Current methods of assessment can be Six Sigma is also well known for the colorful titles of its arbitrary, relying on unclear “state of the art” assessments, practitioners – green belt (part-time Six Sigma worker), or focusing more on easily tangible efficiency metrics, black belt (full-time Six Sigma worker), master black such as speed, cost, or ease of use. Analytical goals and belt (consultant to black belts), and champion (executive requirements for the quality delivered by a test are often proponent of Six Sigma efforts). Six Sigma has been overlooked during the decision-making process leading adopted by both manufacturing and service industries, as to the purchase of instrumentation.

The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) the Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2)
The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) The Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2) Lesson Two Overview 2.0 Introduction, 2-1 2.1 Ten Similar Letters, 2-2 2.2 Six Deceptive Greek Letters, 2-4 2.3 Nine Different Greek Letters, 2-8 2.4 History of the Greek Alphabet, 2-13 Study Guide, 2-20 2.0 Introduction Lesson One introduced the twenty-four letters of the Greek alphabet. Lesson Two continues to present the building blocks for learning Greek phonics by merging vowels and consonants into syllables. Furthermore, this lesson underscores the similarities and dissimilarities between the Greek and English alphabetical letters and their phonemes. Almost without exception, introductory Greek grammars launch into grammar and vocabulary without first firmly grounding a student in the Greek phonemic system. This approach is appropriate if a teacher is present. However, it is little help for those who are “going at it alone,” or a small group who are learning NTGreek without the aid of a teacher’s pronunciation. This grammar’s introductory lessons go to great lengths to present a full-orbed pronunciation of the Erasmian Greek phonemic system. Those who are new to the Greek language without an instructor’s guidance will welcome this help, and it will prepare them to read Greek and not simply to translate it into their language. The phonic sounds of the Greek language are required to be carefully learned. A saturation of these sounds may be accomplished by using the accompanying MP3 audio files. -

For more than 114 years, the women of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) — today representing 26 international women’s organizations working in partnership and friendship — have sought to advance, preserve and protect the sorority experience. NPC is unique because we function as a conference of 26 independent organizations and not as an association. The decisions and strategic direction of NPC are established and determined by those 26 organizations collectively and collaboratively, while at the same time allowing for autonomy. -

Fraternity & Sorority Life Awards 2020-2021
FRATERNITY & SORORITY LIFE AWARDS 2020-2021 The Fraternity and Sorority Awards are designed to provide an objective assessment of a chapter’s performance. The evaluation process for these awards is completed through active reporting and nominations that are submitted online. This process is implemented not as a competition, but as a way for every chapter to measure their growth as an organization on an annual basis. The opportunity for recognition is provided to chapters that excel in the areas of academics, service, programming, philanthropy, and values congruence.
