This past year, in the northeast region, the iota beta chapter won the following awards:

• Overall Outstanding Chapter


• Outstanding Member Education


• Outstanding Scholarship


• Outstanding Campus Involvement


• Outstanding Community Service


• Outstanding Alumni Relations


• Outstanding Faculty Relations

Great work Iota Beta!
We received seven out of twelve regional awards. Keep up the great work and let's see if we can take even more awards next year!

The website is nearing completion!

The remaining objects include the addition of the e-board page, a separation between the listings of a brother's current chairs and previous chairs, adding pages for special chairs, database/brother info maintenance, and site optimization and source code cleanup.

Site optimization will be done behind the scenes, so most users will not notice any changes. Thus, for all intents and purposes, the site will be fully functional and completed within the week.

Like always, please continue to notify me via email or in person if you become aware of any errors, inconsistencies, or concerns related to the kdrib.org website.

All brothers now have the ability to modify their information in the database. Simply go to the user control panel and insert/update your information. If you have not set your pin number on the forums you will be required to do so before you are able to update the website information.
You are able to update all information with the exception of your profile picture. This option will be available after I complete the script to upload pictures to the server.

All of the alumni pages have been moved over from the old website. Please inform the Communications chair if any errors are found.

In addition, A calendar has been added
This calendar will display events that can be added by individual brothers/alumni with the restriction of 3 events per calendar month. This is to prevent calendar trolling/spamming.
Chairs will be able to add items without limits.

Also, the national history has been updated to match the national history on the website of National Fraternity of Kappa Delta Rho and the credo has been added to the about section.

In the next few days,
-the e-board will be able to add news bulletins to the website
-Special pages will be available to selected chairs
-Family trees will be moved to the new site
-The list of brothers will be cleaned up to look more presentable and allow for sorting on the basis of family, pin, tutoring, active, in house, etc...

After all of this, the creation of various read-me files for future Communication chairs, code optimization, commenting, and search engine optimization the new kdrib.org website will be completed.
