On April 14, 2014, Betta Kappa Psi is having their first Women's Appreciation Dinner of the Spring 2014 semester.
The Women's Appreciation Dinner
will take place in the University Center Greek Lounge from 7:30 p.m
to 9:30 p.m. The event will consist of vegetarian and Spanish
cuisine, fountain drinks, and faculty members will be given
personalized rewards for their hard work and dedication to students.
This is not the first time that
Betta Kappa Psi is having this event. Betta Kappa Psi brother and
Public Relations Director, Brent Clarke explained the reason behind
choosing to have the event again this year.
“It was done by some of our
older brothers in the past and we thought it was a great idea. We
feel that some faculty members should be awarded by not only the
university but [by] the students [because] it shows that they are not
underappreciated,” said Clarke.
The Women's Appreciation Dinner
this semester will include six organizations at Kean University. Some
of these organizations include fraternity members, sorority members,
and even men and women groups.
Clarke explained the names of the
six organizations that are hosting the event. Some of them are even
new organizations, like a women's online magazine club.
“ Elite, Betta Kappa Psi, Beta
Kappa Sigma, Mens Group, Women's Circle, Her Campus, [and] Black Rose
Society,” said Clarke.
Clarke explained some of the
faculty members that are being honored at the dinner this year. They
are people that students know from being in the University Center, as
well as teachers that teach electives at the college.
“...prospective honorees
include Sandra Espinal, Ms. Daisy, [and] Dr. Bowe,” said Clarke.
Kyle Seales newly recent Betta
Kappa Psi brother that just crossed over earlier during this Spring
semester, explained what each of these female faculty members mean to
him. He also explained the main reasons why they deserve to be highly
recognized and awarded by Kean.
“It's always great to have a
person who has your back and looks for the best in you. We wanted to
show love towards these facutly members and to make it [them] know
how much we appreciate them,” said Seales.
Seales also explained that this
Women's Appreciation Dinner should be a tradition at Kean.
“We can keep continuing [to]
host [the] dinner in the near future to show we appreciate our women
faculty,” said Seales.
