Organization Choice, Scott Dennis, 4/2/08, ElizabethD0201
I have decided to choose Campus Crusade for Christ as my organization to help because I see a tremendous glip in the Friday night all campus meeting. CRU is a Christian organization here on Purdue's campus and on 3,500 campuses in the US and overseas. Here at Purdue, we meet regularly on Friday nights and engage in a time of worship, that usually includes a talk. One of the biggest complaints that I have with CRU is that they do not have a consistent speaker. They will bring in people from all over the region, have someone on staff speak, or allow a senior to speak. These are all good alternatives, but I think a consistent speaker, someone who is gifted in speaking, would be a wise choice for the organization. The consistency of one main speaker with an occasional change (ie a guest speaker) would be a much better choice than having amateur speakers every single week throughout the year.

I understand your plan to have a consistent speaker for your organization, but I think that varying the speakers might allow your organization members to stay interested. I know that in some of my organizations, meetings start sounding the same. Bringing in new people to talk to members allows everyone to stay excited about the organization. I think that if you decide to go with your soluton you may want to consider allowing different people to speak at shorter times.
