        Our chapter holds our executive board elections in December with
officers having transition time during J-term.  Our CPPC is run as the
first act of the new President during J-term.  It works out extremely well
because the chapter sets the goals for the up coming year, providing a road
map for the president to lead the chapter through his/her term.  The
calendar is set for the entire spring semester and things are penciled in
already for fall semester.  Usually Zeta Epsilon gathers around 6pm on a
Friday night and sticks with it until it is done, usually the early hours of
the morn.
