First, an announcement -- note that the HSG is meeting March 6 due to spring break, amended from the 13. I got us our first link! Keith Augustine of the Secular Web graciously fixed the old AASA link for the new AAFSA one. I had a great phone call from Jim Heldberg, director of AA affiliations. We talked a bit, then he gave me a "point man" here in FL to go through and then the AA should be updating our listing. I also set us up with the Center for Inquiry - On Campus (see affiliates), who, although they have no links on the affiliates page and haven't yet fixed the name, did something even better: sent us an info packet for our group and resources. SSA is doing the same thing!
The wheels are turning, and as new as we are, I am enthused about the response thus far and the amount of serendipity with past members and presidents of AASA. Please, keep spreading the word (and the links).
Read on for the full-text of the CFI email.
