Expenses
In planning for your convention expenses, there are several additional items that you should consider. Your personal costs will include lodging, meals which are not part of the convention program, your transportation to and from the New Orleans area and hotel, car service or bus fares, tips, snacks, drinks, souvenirs and other incidental expenses.
Chapter Leadership Funds (CLFs) assure collegians always have access to Delta Sigma Pi's full array of educational programs. CLFs are chapter-specific accounts within the Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation created to receive charitable gifts restricted to a chapter. Chapters can request grants to defray the direct cost of Grand Chapter Congress.
Special Accommodations
Delta Sigma Pi wants to accommodate your needs, including any special dietary needs, as best as reasonably possible. If you did not already do so when registering, please communicate any detailed requests as soon as possible (no later than August 1) to registration@dsp.org. On-site requests may not be able to be accommodated satisfactorily and there may be an additional charge in order to meet certain requests.
Banquet Seating
There is an opportunity to request who you would like to sit with at the banquet by completing this form by Saturday, July 19. Table assignments will be made available during Congress and will be based on first come-first serve and are based on availability. You may email banquet@dsp.org with any other questions. There will be a Banquet Seating table set up during Congress for attendees to view table assignments and make any changes. All persons you wish to sit with must also indicate in their request that they also wish to sit with you.
