It has been pointed out that July 5 is 7/5, not 6/5. Our apologies for the typo; the deadline is two weeks in the future, not three weeks in the past. <div><br></div><div>--Rebecca<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 9:23 AM, Rebecca E Krentz-Wee <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rkw@mit.edu">rkw@mit.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Please take note of the following announcements:<br>
<br>
1. First Year Student Mailing Submissions due by Monday, July 5<br>
2. Midway Date: Friday, September 3<br>
3. Yearly Activity Survey<br>
<br>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
1. First Year Student Mailing (FYSM) Submissions due by 7/5 (not 6/5)<br>
<br>
Like last year, the ASA is going to compile a website with an index of all the<br>
groups. Each group can submit a slide, a short description, and a link to their<br>
website. The FYSM website will be advertised to incoming students through<br>
postcards and the Graduate Student News.<br>
<br>
More information and the submission form can be found at:<br>
<a href="http://web.mit.edu/asa/publicity/summer-mailing.html" target="_blank">http://web.mit.edu/asa/publicity/summer-mailing.html</a><br>
<br>
Please contact <a href="mailto:asa-fysm@mit.edu">asa-fysm@mit.edu</a> with any troubles or questions regarding the<br>
submission form or FYSM in general.<br>
<br>
We will be collecting some statistical information about visits to the FYSM<br>
website. If you would be interested in receiving information related to your<br>
group, please contact us (<a href="mailto:asa-fysm@mit.edu">asa-fysm@mit.edu</a>) and we can discuss what information<br>
we can and are willing to provide you with.<br>
<br>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
2. Midway Date: Friday, September 3<br>
<br>
The Fall Activities Midway will be held on Friday, September 3 in the afternoon.<br>
While we did consider moving the date of the Midway, it was not determined to be<br>
clearly feasible and advantageous for this year. We will likely send a survey<br>
out early in fall and reconsider the options for Orientation 2011.<br>
<br>
More information and a request form will be mailed out in the next month.<br>
<br>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
3. Yearly Activity Survey<br>
<br>
Remember to have your new officers fill out the ASA yearly activity survey,<br>
which will be used to compile the ASA group directory.<br>
<br>
The survey is available here: <a href="http://asa.mit.edu/directory/edit.php" target="_blank">http://asa.mit.edu/directory/edit.php</a><br>
<br>
The results are available here: <a href="http://asa.mit.edu/directory/view.php" target="_blank">http://asa.mit.edu/directory/view.php</a><br>
