March comes in like a lionI'm just settling in as the new GSA president, and it's going to be tough to fill Glenn Scott's shoes after his great year in 2003. Lots going on: the school is determining its new doctoral students as we speak, and later this month we'll be visiting with potential masters students. February and March are always exciting here for that reason. We also just had a great showing from UNC at the AEJMC Midwinter conference in New Brunswick, NJ, and we'll expect more of the same at the Southeast Colloquium in Tampa, Fla. There's plenty of other action going on, but here's some current business: The GSA still needs an alternate to possible attend some Graduate and Professional Student Federation meetings. This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in future leadership. Contact me, GSA president Jimmy Ivory (jivory@email.unc.edu) if interested. Also, we need to decide what to do with our allocation (a few hundred dollars, likely)! We can do something with this money, so let's take advantage. Anyone interested in participating on a finance committee or similar entity -- or anyone who just has an idea -- can also contact me. Information pertaining to use of our money are at http://www.unc.edu/gpsf/departmental_allocations.html
