  • DELTA SIGMA PI RISK MANAGEMENT INFORMATIONAL DOCUMENT/Faqs the Purpose of This Document Is to Attempt to Provide Answers to Comm
    DELTA SIGMA PI RISK MANAGEMENT INFORMATIONAL DOCUMENT/FAQs The purpose of this document is to attempt to provide answers to common questions that arise in the area of risk management. There are many vague areas in liability and risk management matters so it is not possible for this document to cover every possible situation. Please direct your further questions in this area to your District Director, Regional Vice President, Board of Directors or the staff of the Central Office. 1. Q: What is an Organizational Member? A: The Delta Sigma Pi Risk Management policy defines ‘organizational members’ as members of Delta Sigma Pi [collegiate and alumni], faculty members, pledges, colony members and employees. 2. Q: What constitutes a "fraternity event"? A: Delta Sigma Pi considers a fraternity event any event, activity or situation sponsored, co-sponsored or endorsed by the chapter or colony, or any event a reasonable person would associate with the Fraternity. An event sponsored by a chapter or the Fraternity is a "fraternity event". An event, regardless of where it is held or who sponsors it, can be construed to be a fraternity event based on the circumstances surrounding the planning and conduct of the event. An event included on the schedule of events of the chapter or that is promoted during chapter meetings, posted on the chapter’s website, publicized via the chapter’s email distribution list, through notices in the chapter office or at other fraternity events is likely to be construed as a fraternity event. Please note that a chapter cannot “decide” what does and what does not constitute a fraternity event.

  • Sandlan Part of First US Group to Visit Top Secret
    Sandlan part of first US group to visit top secret Krasnoyarsk-26 nuclear facility in Siberia Safety study takes Dave Carlson to underground complex By Ken Frazier Lab News Managing Editor Fourteen time zones of travel, a stay in a secret nuclear base inside a Siberian mountain, eating bear meat in the forest. It wasn't exactly a regular Sandia work week, but Dave Carlson, Man• ager of Assessment Technologies Dept. 12333, experienced it all recently as a member of the first group of American officials allowed to enter and tour the top-secret underground nuclear facilities inside a mountain near the "closed city" of Krasnoyarsk-26 in central Siberia. He was one of 13 government and contractor scientists under the aus• pices of the DOE Defense Program's Office of Special Projects to make the unique site visit. It was all part of an urgent technical effort to exchange radiochemical operational safety information and involve counterpart Russian scientists in joint safety programs. The delegation was headed by F. Charles Gilbert of the Office of Spe• cial Projects in Washington. Besides Dave, three other New Mexico scien• tists, Steve Agnew, Sam Pillay, and Harold Sullivan, all of Los Alamos National Laboratory, were also in the group. Dave's no novice at such things. He says it was his fourth trip to Rus• sia, but definitely his first time to the Krasnoyarsk-26 installation. "It was a very interesting trip," he says, with typical Sandia understatement "It was a privilege to be among the first people to go there." Traveled for 45 hours Getting there was itself a challenge.
