We discussed a newsletter at our homecoming meeting,
and I'd like to make it a reality with everyone's help.
This is a call for articles and pictures, deliverable to me
by December 1st. I'm in the midst of contact with the alumni
office about the timing of mailings, but presume for the sake of
timeliness in your writing that the newsletter will be in the
mail by January 1st, as well as up on the web.
What I'm expecting is:
- Article from the chairs of each committee
- Article from cbod chairs
- Article from committee members (committees outside
cbod '98)
- A summation of the leadership conference - is anyone
going?
- Pictures (from homecoming, cbod, any others available?)
What I'm also going to include is:
- Upcoming events at WPI (and regionally, like alumni
meetings)
- A form for updating address, email, new job, more
degrees, married, kids, etc.
Formatting Issues:
I work on a mac, so while .doc is an okay format, I'm going
to be converting everything you send me to .txt anyways.
So, just avoid formatting anything and I'll make it all
look nice. For pictures, you can either send a hard copy of
the picture (I'll even mail it back) to me at home, or you can
email me a .jpeg.
Please note that this email is going out to cbod members
who gave their direct support and "volunteered" to help at
the meeting. I'm also going to send out a general email to
the cbod list notifying them of this
project and welcoming any help and/or suggestions they might
have.
