When Sigma Kappas "Rush to the Rockies" for the 1984 convention, Jackie Lea Meissner, Iota, will welcome all with enthusiasm, humor and genuine sisterliness. Because of her generous use of her tal­ ents and time and her ready smile and sense of fun, Sigma Kappa is fortunate, indeed, that Jackie has agreed to act as the assistant chairman of the 1984 Sigma Kappa National Convention in Denver, Colo­ rado. As a member of Iota chapter at the University of Denver, Jackie was pledge president, pledge trainer, president of the chapter, and honored as one of six outstanding senior women. She is a mem­ ber of Denver Area alumnae chapter, was collegiate province officer for six years and is now collegiate district director for District III. Fred, her husband, is a geologist with Bird Oil Company. As a family, they enjoy travel, downhill and cross-country skiing and camping with their three children. Using her training in the speech/special education field, Jackie has taught for several years and is cur­ rently tutoring. Her talents in drawing, painting and gourmet cooking are generously offered to her many friends and to Sigma sisters. She has been active in her church and community as a member of the Mortar Board alumnae, past president of A.A.U.W., past president of Roswell, New Mexico Panhellenic and past president of Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists Auxiliary. Jackie has served in several capacities in Scouts for both sons and daughter, as officer in all levels in P.T.O., on her Civic Association Board for years, as Sunday school teacher an_d on Administrative Board for the Methodist Church. As Sigma Kappa's assistant convention chair­ man, Jackie can draw on her experience as one of the chairmen of the past two National American Association of Petroleum Geologists Conventions with several thousand attending. Jackie, along with Carol Winter, convention chairman, and the many other Sigmas working behind the scene, will make the 1984 convention beneficial and memorable with an opportunity for delegates to learn, to be inspired and to renew friendships and make new ones. As Sigma Kappas "Rush to the Rockies", they will share a sincere welcome of a native Coloradan and her many co-workers.

38 National Council nominations sought The election of National Council members will be conducted during the session of Sigma Kappa's 71st bien­ nial convention in June, 1984 in Denver, Colorado. Officers will be selected from a slate of nominees pre­ sented by the nominating committee. Every Sigma Kappa has the opportunity to recommend to the committee the names of women qualified to serve as National Council. College chapters, alumnae chapters, alumnae clubs, and individual members of Sigma Kappa are encouraged to submit nominations. To be eligible for National Council, a member must have developed a broad background of fraternity expe­ rience and served as a national officer. In addition, the nominee must be willing to accept responsibility for an anticipated daily load of reports and correspondence, and be able to manage family and career obligations so that she can attend ALL council meetings and other meetings held in conjunction with the fraternity's affairs, such as conventions and COTS and other special assignments requiring travel away from home. Serving on National Council is a time-consuming, responsible position; however, it is also a rewarding priv­ ilege.
