Chicago Graduate Brother's Conference - October 7th
Chicago-area Fijis:
From time to time, we'll promote something of interest to Chicago Fijis from one of our local Graduate Brothers. Here's an event in which you might be interested, sent by Adam Newell (Purdue 2000):
I would like to invite my fellow Fiji Brothers in the Chicago-land area to my firm's 1st Annual Investor Conference set for October 7 in Chicago at Maggiano's Restaurant. This event is a great opportunity to hear learn about financial industry trends, gain investment insights on a broad array of asset classes, and get plugged in to hot topic items in such areas as alternative investing, personal finance, estate planning, and fiduciary/non-profit "best practices" - all from leading experts in these fields. We will have panel discussions and break-out sessions featuring representatives from firms such as PIMCO, Nuveen, JP Morgan, Blackman Kallick, Leo Latz, Hewitt Associates, Jenner & Block, Kirkland & Ellis, and others!
Just as important, this event will also be a great networking opportunity as the executives and decision-makers of many corporations, non-profit organizations, medical associations and educational endowments will be in attendance in addition to many individual investors who own small businesses and sit on corporate/non-profit/endowment boards. There should be much to talk about and many to talk to!
Again, the event will begin at 9AM on Wednesday, October 7 at Maggiano's located at 516 North Clark Street in downtown Chicago. Please note your RSVP would be appreciated. Feel free to email your reply to mail@dimeoschneider.com.
I hope to see all of you there!
Lastly, please feel free to forward/invite/pass along this invite to whomever you think appropriate - we think there will be something for everyone!
Regards-

Fiji Archon President Bill Miller to Keynote Pig Dinner on April 23rd!
The Chicago Graduate Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta is extremely honored to have Archon President Bill Miller as our keynote speaker for our Pig Dinner on Thursday, April 23rd, at Petterino's Restaurant in downtown Chicago! This annual Pig Dinner is held in conjunction with the Phi Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta at Northwestern University.
Here's a brief bio for Bill:
After many years of service to Phi Gamma Delta, Bill Miller now leads our Fraternity as Archon President. His post-graduate involvement in the Fraternity began as a Field Secretary from 1965 to 1967. He was a Section Chief from 1971 to 1979, and for 25 years, from 1979 to 2004, he served as our Ritualist. He was elected Archon Councilor by the 156th Ekklesia in 2004 and was appointed Archon Secretary in November 2005, prior to his election as Vice President by the 2006 Ekklesia. Bill continues to serve the Lambda Iota Chapter at Purdue as Purple Legionnaire, a role he has played since 1996. Four times the IFC at Purdue has named him the Outstanding Chapter Advisor among the 41 fraternities on campus. Bill lives in West Lafayette, IN, where he owns and operates an industrial supply company and manages personal commercial property, as well as family-owned farms. His community involvement has focused on the Rotary Club, both locally and internationally.
Please SAVE THE DATE and return back to this Blog for updates, okay? We'll soon have a registration form for you to sign up!
