February Meeting Recap

For those of you who couldn't make it last night here are some things we briefly discussed:

• Creating Lambda Pi Eta t-shirts (around $12-15 each)  We will probably be ordering them through Allstar Sportswear in West Allis. (current thinking is navy/royal blue and white lettering).  If you have any suggestions, let us know...we would like to put in an order soon!)

• the Lambda Pi Eta webiste is now being housed through the College of Communication webserver.  Eventually we would like to get alumni Lambda Pi Eta members contact information and possibly bringing some of those people in on campus as guest speakers to talk about jobs/careers associating with Communication Studies in the near future!  So keep checking the website!

• Habitat for Humanity Volunteer Project (we would love for our group to get involved!!!  Erin Jamieson will give us more information later)

• Spring Bake Sale/Cold Stone Fundraisers (Stay tuned for dates/times).

• Lambda Pi Eta Cookout during the week of April 21-23...social gathering! 

• We talked about pairing up with the College of Communication Student Council and doing some activities with them as well.  (Lindsay Kulla is a member of the council as well said that group would like to work with LPH! Winking

• Lambda Pi Eta Spring Induction Ceremony is scheduled for April 19th.
 
If you have any suggestions regarding these things, please email us or if you have any additional ideas or questions, let us know!

Website has a new home

As of today, our chapter website has a new home. We can now be found on the College of Communication webserver. This move was made possible with support of both the college administration (special thanks to Dr. Ana Garner, Interim Dean and Nick Pumilia, Director of the Media Center) and IT services (in particular, Mykl Novak, Web Development Manager for IT Services). Please update all of your links and bookmarks.
