The nominations are also open for the positions of Webmaster, Publicist, and Secretary. If we do not have further interests in these positions by the end of this month, we?ll go ahead with the assignments of these wonderful people as our new leaders. Sincerely, Chirag Shah Chair, NJ ASIST http://www.asis.org/Chapters/nj/ > On May 26, 2016, at 3:18 PM, Chirag Shah wrote: > > Dear NJ ASIST member, > > It?s time we have new leadership for our organization. It?s taken us a while, but I believe that we are back on track and considered to be an active chapter. We have consistently organized 2-3 events each year, including Distinguished Lecture Series. This year we also set a new example for all other ASIST chapters by organizing the first ASIST Regional Meeting in April. > > So it?s time to bring in new blood! The positions are: chair, treasurer, webmaster, publicist, and secretary. Please email me (and just me, not the whole list!) if you are interested in any of these positions starting fall of this year. They are all low-demand, high-reward positions - suitable for both professionals and students. And most of us are still around to help you out as needed! > > > Sincerely, > Chirag Shah > Chair, NJ ASIST > http://www.asis.org/Chapters/nj/ > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

See the announcement below. A big thanks to Rutgers, Pratt, and Drexel Student Chapters of ASIST, along with NJ ASIST officers and volunteers for making this event a big success. Sincerely, Chirag Shah Chair, NJ ASIST http://www.asis.org/Chapters/nj/ ? Chapter Event of the Year The 2016 Chapter Event-of-the-Year Award goes to New Jersey ASIS&T for the first ASIS&T Regional Meeting held at Rutgers University on April 15: https://www.asist.org/events/asist-regional-meeting-2016-rutgers-university/ https://www.asist.org/events/asist-regional-meeting-2016-rutgers- university/. The nomination received high point with a theme of participant engagement. Reviewers noted the timeliness of the topic, diverse and well-known speakers, and opportunities for students and SIGs engagement. It was well-publicized and well attended, both face to face and virtual. As described by the nominator, this event brought together students chapters from Rutgers, Pratt, and Drexel together in working with the NJ Chapter, setting a good example of chapters could collaborate in mutually beneficial way. In addition to executing a highly successful program, this event created a milestone in ASIS&T and set an example of how ASIS&T could create value for its members at a local level. ? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
