<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is a long memo with complete information about IAP 2009.
Please read it all the way through!</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Planning for IAP '09 has begun. We want MIT's student groups to
be front and center with activities for IAP 2009 (dates are January 5 – January
30, 2009). Here's all the how-to information and important dates and
deadlines:</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">WHO HAS AUTHORITY TO POST (REPRESENT) FOR AN ASA GROUP:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">All activities for IAP must be posted on-line at <a href="http://web.mit.edu/iap/" title="blocked::http://web.mit.edu/iap/" target="_blank">http://web.mit.edu/iap/</a>
by an authorized group representative. Many participants begin making
their IAP plans in November and December. To ensure that student-led
events get ample exposure, organizers are strongly encouraged to post their
activities on line no later than November 1. </span></font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">HOW TO GET AUTHORIZED TO POST FOR IAP:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Any ASA group wishing to sponsor IAP activities must designate 1-2 IAP
Coordinators who are authorized to post that group's listings.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Each Coordinator must get authorized to post for that group through me
(Amy Clark). Please have your designated Coordinator(s) send me (<a href="mailto:iap-www@mit.edu" title="blocked::mailto:iap-www@mit.edu" target="_blank">iap-www@mit.edu</a>)
the following information:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">• The name of the student group</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">• Each Coordinator's kerberos ID (Athena user ID)</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">HOW TO POST ACTIVITIES:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Go to <a href="http://web.mit.edu/iap/" title="blocked::http://web.mit.edu/iap/" target="_blank">http://web.mit.edu/iap/</a> .
Read first instructions for "Using the posting forms." Then go
to "Post/Revise your IAP Activity." If your ASA group posted an
activity for last year's IAP and you would like it to be updated for this
year, your group's coordinator will be able to see a list of activities that
may be rolled over from last year. Click on the "select" box to view
the activity, and then click on "edit" to roll it over.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The updated posting form is easy to use. However, please contact <a href="mailto:iap-www@mit.edu" title="blocked::mailto:iap-www@mit.edu" target="_blank">iap-www@mit.edu</a>
for any questions or posting problems.</span></font></p>
