Meeting reminder and more

Hi everyone,

Reminder...meetings this week, Wednesday and alternate meeting on Friday. See the main DGS Headquarters for precise details: https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/cmmaier/www/gcc/index.html

Thanks to everyone who's responded re: your interests and skills. Looks like we're going to have people singing at our meetings, tossing the football over the big table, and documenting all the madness. Actually, this info gives me a great sense of the sorts of projects we might tackle. At this next meeting, we're going to begin hammering out the shape of our yearlong project, which will involve a student-focused and largely student-created portion of the DGS website. Please do some thinking in advance of the meeting in terms of what sorts of things should be/might be included on such a site. And please feel free to post some initial ideas here, to get us thinking.

Also, I'd like to move forward with the next small project, which will be, basically, a publicity campaign for DGSociety. Posters? Something else? What? Where? Why? I want to have some serious conversations about anticipated outcomes and, thus, appropriate strategies. This is going to be a great opportunity for those of you into graphic design, marketing, or advertising to flex your muscles and hopefully have a huge impact on how our society (and DGS itself) is seen on campus. Give me some thoughts on this front, too...including Leah's DoGS idea, the fun poster idea she came up with, etc. Sarah Watson is going to head this head.

Thanks everyone.
