The Fiyah Region
Let's see the FIYAH RISE in Region 1
Hello NSBE!
I am Satiera Star Caze, a bioengineering student at Northeastern University and your Region I Chair for 2024-2025. I am excited to serve you all and give back to an organization that’s given so much to me.
As we continue NSBE’s 50th-year celebrations, we must continue to reflect upon not only the journey the national society has taken to reach this milestone, but also Region I’s part in this legacy. Region One, or Region FIRST as we are often regarded, has always been dedicated to propelling the mission of NSBE further. Region FIRST was the FIRST region to add the NSBE mission statement to our bylaws. Region FIRST has been the site of the FIRST Regional Leadership Conference, the FIRST Regional Conference, the FIRST international chapter, and many more achievements. We have always lived up to having that FIYAH in NSBE. In past years, we have been in the wake of the effect of the pandemic on our region. We need to revitalize the FIYAH and propel our region forward.
This year’s Regional Directive is RISE: Rebuild, Invigorate, Support, and Engage. This directive addresses the holistic need for Region I to unite and strengthen to cause a RISE in the Region 1 FIYAH.
Rebuild (Region-Chapters connection): There is a need to rebuild the communication between the region and the chapters and rebuild the perception of the REB to the chapters. This means
recruiting a full board to maximize communication, maintain relationships with existing chapters, and charter new chapters. We aim to connect not only through virtual communications but
through chapter visits to increase the visibility of the board. To rebuild the REB-chapter connection is to cause a RISE in our regional strength.
Invigorate (Region-member interaction): The region serves to excite members about our commitment to NSBE’s mission. We will revamp region-member interactions through programming on all sides- providing academic, volunteering, scholarship, and community resources to ALL members (Collegiate AND PCI) throughout the year outside of our conventions. In doing so, we aim to invigorate future NSBE leaders to continue the FIYAH of our region and cause a RISE in regional activity.
Support (Chapter-Member Connection): To continue to sustain our region, we must support the longevity of the chapters. This entails providing chapter development resources and seeking to
address issues the chapters may be facing.
Engage (Member-Member Connection): There’s a need to engage the region with the region. Members need to be able to connect before conventions. This involves facilitating cross-chapter collaborations by providing more avenues through programming and zone events.
With these directives, Region 1 shall ensure that the FIYAH will RISE. We will RISE together.
With FIYAH,
