Skill­sUSA was a suc­cess!  The com­pe­ti­tion was held on Fri­day and Sat­ur­day, April 15–16.  17 con­tes­tants com­peted in the sec­ondary level, as well as 4 stu­dents in the post-secondary level.  Stu­dents were tested on their knowl­edge in pre­press, work­flow, press, bindery, pro­duc­tion plan­ning, and their over­all knowl­edge of printing.

Please Don’t Mind the Dust…

As you can tell, the web site is cur­rently being updated (appear­ance). This should be done by the end of the day. If you can­not find some­thing, please con­tact either me or Logan, and we’ll be more than happy to help you locate the resource you need. Thank you for your patience.

As a notice, the site may be unavail­able for a few hours tonight (or only par­tially func­tional). Thank you for your patience.

If you haven’t already noticed, there are a cou­ple changes going on with the site, and the GAA in gen­eral. I’ve added a new tab on the top nav­i­ga­tion bar that will have all of the min­utes from our var­i­ous meet­ings. The side bar has two new links as well. One if for the dig­i­tal ver­sion of our GAA hand­book for new mem­bers, and the other is a link to our weekly agenda for our gen­eral meetings.

We have lots of other great things planned to make the web site bet­ter, and to get more infor­ma­tion out in the open for the pub­lic and our mem­bers. Bran­don is work­ing on chang­ing the theme of the web­site around to be more like a site and less like a blog, and hopes to have it done by the end of the semes­ter. And I will be work­ing on assem­bling sev­eral doc­u­ments on how to uti­lize all of our ser­vices to make it eas­ier to stay in touch, and up to date, with the GAA

My fel­low printers,

In case you haven’t heard, there is a Job Fair com­ing up this Thurs­day at Wink Arena from 11AM — 3PM.  There are going to be two com­pa­nies that are geared toward print­ing, Quad­Graph­ics and Con­sol­i­dated.  Talk to other com­pa­nies to see if the offer posi­tions in print­ing related departments.

Dress for suc­cess and bring your stu­dent ID with you to gain entrance.

Can you find your­self, or bet­ter yet guess them all?
