Logan Cashin will be hosting a Website seminar next week. It will take place in SWAN 218/220 on Tuesday the 7th at 6:00pm, with a repeat on Wednesday the 8th at the same time and place. It’s recommended that all GAA members attend in order to learn about how to stay connected with the organization and each other using the site and services provided. Bring your laptop/tablet/smartphone if you’ve got one to get your GAA email added to it.
The Graphic Arts Association needs to be more involved on campus and The Big Event is a prefect way. This would also be a fun way to get to know each other by working other. Getting involved with the community is another way to get the GAA out there. The link is what you need to fill out so please have the form filled out by March 30, 2012. THE BIG EVENT KICKOFF will begin at 9:00am the morning of April 14th.
Coming up on the Tue. – Wed. after Spring Break I’ll be hosting a Web workshop/seminar. The purpose of this event is to help students understand more about how certain services on the Web work, and to go over the kinds of things you’ll encounter in the work force. We will be in SWAN 218/220 both nights from 6:30 until we run out of things to discuss. Below is a list of topics that are likely to be covered.

If you do not pay dues you will be limited on what activities you can participate in with the GAA, and you won’t have access to our online resources.
As a heads up for tomorrow’s meeting I wanted to make sure everyone got a copy of the revised Constitution and Bylaws. The E-Board and C-Board met on the 29th of October to update the Constitution so that it is more relevant and easier to understand with some of the changes that have happened in the GAA over the last few years.
As per our rules, the changes cannot be made official until they are presented to the general assembly and passed by majority vote. We will be holding a vote to approve the document as it is written in this PDF tomorrow, and if you have any questions, changes, or complaints that will be your time to voice them.
You can view the updated document HERE
If you have not yet put in your nomination for next year’s E-Board, please go here to fill out a form for it. Instructions are on the form, and your identity will be kept secret. Nominations will be closed at midnight tonight, so get your picks in as early as possible.
Elections will be held next week on Tuesday.
Let’s take a moment to talk about a wonderful little service called Dropbox. A few years ago there was a new buzz word, “Cloud Computing,” but not many people understood what it was about. Most often cloud computing refers to utilizing off site hardware to run software rather than using your own computer.
