Behind the Scenes at MTM


This blog is a day-to-day update of what is going on in Mu Tau Mu. Eventually we'll move the older journal entries from our livejournal space but for now to read the archives (entries prior to May 19, 2005), head over to http://www.livejournal.com/users/amzmtm/.

Things you'll hear about here include notification that new photos or other items are posted on our private website (more about the site is here), more detail on our activities than you see in our month-by-month history blog, news from Case, news from the collegiate chapter, news from Alpha Chi Omega at large, and occasionally fun new ideas on their way to implementation. Links to the private site will take you directly to the item mentioned.

17 Songs, 14 women, 1 great cause - raising funds for domestic violence shelters.

"14 independent female artists (including Alpha Chi Omega alumna Trish Lester, Alpha Psi, UCLA) sing out against domestic violence. Laughter, tears, triumph and empowerment. Blues, rock, folk. A range of styles and topics. CD comes with an all lyrics 20 page booklet... The major portion of the proceeds from the sale of this CD will be donated to women's domestic violence shelters."

Women on the Move are also performing live shows benefiting local shelters - see the schedule here.

Order the critically acclaimed CD here. $15 (available on CD or mp3).

As always you can support two of Alpha Chi Omega's causes at once - domestic violence awareness and fine arts appreciation - by visiting MTM's Music for DVA website! Proceeds from the featured musical selections benefit domestic violence shelters and programs!
