SSIP

Scholarship and Service In Philadelphia, SSIP, was the former name of the East Region Conference. There were three SSIP conferences from 2003-2005. The conference name intentionally did not reference the word social to highlight the two other legs of the tripod, Scholarship and Leadership (service). The conferences were held in Philadelphia due to all the chapters but Alpha Iota at the time being in or near the city. With the reactivation of Alpha Theta and two East Region chapters in northern New Jersey the conferences started moving beyond the city.
