NCTE-SA Meeting Minutes for April 20, 2006

 

1. We are an official group on campus!  Thank you Allyson for putting the application together. 

 

2. Our final get-together will be after the Foundations of Education final on Tuesday, May 9th at Quinton's.  Even if you haven't been able to attend many events this semester, please come and enjoy a study break in the company of your fellow NCTE-SA members.  We'll meet at noon, and we will not be using NCTE-SA funds for the lunch (saving for National convention), so please bring lunch money with you.

 

3. The book drive will continue over this summer.  Another group on campus is doing a drive for the schools affected by hurricane Katrina, and it's been slow obtaining wish lists from local schools because they're working on grades and end-of-year activities.  If you tried contacting a school and haven't heard anything back yet, please keep at it until you get a response.  Maybe try re-contacting the school's liaison in June once school is out.  Alan and Allyson will continue to work on this project over the summer, and we hope to post the lists at Target and local bookstores at the beginning of August when people are doing their back-to-school shopping.

 

4. Stay tuned for more information regarding meetings and officer selection for this fall.  As we did in January, we'll email you before school starts and arrange an initial meeting before school gets too crazy.  At that time we will decide when our meetings will be (change or keep every other Thursday at 5:30) and we will elect new officers.

 

Thanks for all your participation this semester and for helping us re-start NCTE-SA!  Good luck with finals, and enjoy the summer!
