55Th Biennial Convention Elects New Council Fall, 1984 Vol. 101, No. 3 Mollie Fitzgerald, an undergraduate member of ~B - Duke, is welcoming faU with her newly released book The On Campus Cookbook. 55th Biennial Convention Elects New Council praised the combined attention of active and alumnae mem­ bers to the membership selection process and proposed a personnal challenge in stating, "The awareness of the danger of alcohol abuse and an understanding that Kappa has a respon­ sibility to help their members make sound choices about their use of alcohol continues to be one of the greatest challenges." (Over 80 chapters had some kind of alcohol related program during the past biennium.) She mentioned that we are in the era of "It's Great to be Greek" and many members are partici­ pating in Panhellenic. In the last 20 years more than a million new members have joined NPC member groups. Kappas continue to uphold philanthropic endeavors with a total of $380,000 awarded to scholarships during the bienni­ um. "Every single one of us can buy a Kappa magazine sub­ scription through the Rose McGill Agency housed at Fraterni­ ty Headquarters," said President Nitschke as she viewed the spirit of Kappa is giving to others. New resources unveiled at convention included: Revised Ad­ ventures in Leadership, A Guide to Scholarship, Manual for Pledge Chairmen, Songs of Kappa Kappa Gamma, Revised Book of Devotions, Keys to Housing, Graphics Manual, and the Kappa Kappa Gamma Professional Directory. An inspirational Memorial Service paid tribute to all Kappas who passed away during the biennium; a stirring President's Dinner featured seven former presidents with Helen Snyder Steiner speaking as the ranking president- her 27th Fraternity convention; a KappaFair unparalleled where resource people were available to answer any and all questions; a cookout at Mummy Mountain with skit; "Kids on the Block" came to the philanthropy dinner; and an encounter with " Sun Signs and Marian Klingbeil Williams, 0 - Missouri Fraternity President Spirit Circles" at the candlelight banquet are all moments to be remembered.

He changed the viewing habits of Americans, transformed the way in which television covers sport, altered the nature and character of American sport, and transformed the way in which television presents reality to the American public. For all of these reasons Roone Arledge cast a large shadow over America in the second half of the twentieth century. Although the marriage of television and sport had been consummated well before Roone Arledge took up his college football post at ABC television, Arledge changed the nature of the relationship between the two.

Even though there are many different fraternities and sororities, each aims to provide friendship, leadership, and professional development to its members (King, 2004).The rich history of Greek organizations has played an important role in the development of student life at The University of Toledo, where fraternities have been present since October of 1915, when the Cresset society was formed (History of the Cresset Fraternity, n.d.). However, throughout the years the University of Toledo Greek community has adapted and consolidated in order to ensure survival while remaining a vital component on campus.

  • Introduction Abc Sports and Network Sports Television
    Introduction abc sports and network sports television in september 1994, Sports Illustrated published a list of the forty most infl uential sports fi gures in the forty years since the magazine’s launch. Its top two selections—Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan—were no great surprise. At the height of their respective careers, Ali and Jordan were argu- ably the most recognizable people on Earth. Sports Illustrated’s third-ranked selection—the American Broadcasting Company’s sports television master- mind Roone Arledge—was comparatively obscure. Arledge never fronted for global ad campaigns, had a shoe line, or divided a nation with his politics. But the magazine might have underestimated the infl uence of this producer and executive. During Arledge’s thirty-eight-year stint at the network, ABC built and codifi ed the media infrastructure that made possible global sport celebri- ties of Ali and Jordan’s unprecedented magnitude. ABC Sports is behind some of network sports television’s most signifi cant practices, personalities, and moments. It created the weekend anthology Wide World of Sports, transformed professional football into a prime-time spectacle with Monday Night Football, and fashioned the Olympics into a mega media event. It helped to turn Ali, the sportscaster Howard Cosell, and the daredevil Evel Knievel into stars and captured now-iconic instances that include Tommie Smith and John Carlos’s raised-fi st protest at the 1968 Olympics, the terrorist attacks at the 1972 Munich Games, Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs’s 1973 “Battle of the Sexes” tennis match, the US hockey team’s 1980 “Miracle on Ice” victory over the Soviet Union, and the 1999 Women’s World Cup fi nal.
