The FSILG Toolkit
Services for a Special Community

Fraternities, Sororities, and Independent Living Groups (FSILGs) have an honored place in the MIT community. The Alumni Association works with MIT and the FSILGs to preserve and extend this great legacy. Along with the Alumni Association, the following organizations are devoted to sustaining and improving the future of the FSILGs:

• AILG - the Association of Independent Living Groups
• The FSILG Office of the Division of Student Life
• The FSILG Cooperative, Inc. - the FSILG-owned purchasing and member services cooperative.

The toolkit items are grouped below into major categories. Please click on the category heading to review the items in that category.

Volunteers

Recognition
MIT values the work that alumni do for the chapters and also the work that chapters do in reaching out to their alumni. This section includes suggestions on how to thank and recognize your volunteers as well as information on the prestigious D. Reid Weedon '41 Award, which is presented annually to chapters with strong alumni relations programs.

Alumni Relations for Undergraduates
