* SEDS-Presidents : Communications to all SEDS-USA Chapter Presidents *
Dear SEDS Presidents,
For the past month, I've been trying to reorganize SEDS-USA and sort
through the clutter of all of the old records. Finally, I've finished
up this job.
o I wrote letters (US Mail) to all the SEDS-USA chapters that have
ever existed to try to find out which are still active. As of today,
there are 17 active SEDS-USA chapters.
o I recertified all of the existing chapters. Yesterday, I mailed out
(US Mail) the new Chapter Charters as well as a large packet of very
important information.
o Please give that packet your full attention. It asks you to do these things:
1. Return the Charter Acceptance Form
2. Email me your phone number and give me a time that I can call you
3. Attend the first Council of Chapters meeting on February 21.
If none of this makes any sense, don't worry; the packet will explain it all.
o There is a brand new structure for the SEDS mailing lists.
1. seds-presidents@seds.org: Presidents of all SEDS-USA chapters.
2. seds-chapters@seds.org: All officers of all SEDS-USA chapters.
3. seds-discuss@seds.org: Discussion of anything space or SEDS-related.
o seds-discuss is meant to replace SEDS-L. I highly encourage all
SEDS members of all SEDS chapters worldwide to join this list. So
please inform your chapter's members of this opportunity. You can
join this list by sending an email to <Majordomo@seds.org> and
putting this in the BODY (not the subject) of your email message:
subscribe seds-discuss
You'll receive an email a couple minutes later explaining how to
finish the process, which involves sending another confirmation
email. If you think it's too complicated, just email me and I'll add
you to the list myself.
o I've almost finished a new SEDS-USA webpage that contains lots of
information useful for chapters. It's not active yet, but please
check it out in a few weeks at (http://www.seds.org/seds/)
If none of this makes any sense to you, just wait for the packet of
information to arrive in the mail. This email was just meant to give
you some advance notice.
* IF YOUR PACKET DOES NOT ARRIVE IN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! *
Please let me know if there is anything either I or SEDS-USA can do for you.
Thanks,
Samidh Chakrabarti
SEDS-USA Vice-Chair
