This is a long memo with complete information about IAP 2009.  Please read
it all the way through!



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:





WHO HAS AUTHORITY TO POST (REPRESENT) FOR AN ASA GROUP:

All activities for IAP must be posted on-line at http://web.mit.edu/iap/ 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.





HOW TO GET AUTHORIZED TO POST FOR IAP:

Any ASA group wishing to sponsor IAP activities must designate 1-2 IAP
Coordinators who are authorized to post that group's listings.

Each Coordinator must get authorized to post for that group through me (Amy
Clark).  Please have your designated Coordinator(s) send me (iap-www at mit.edu)
the following information:

• The name of the student group

• Each Coordinator's kerberos ID (Athena user ID)





HOW TO POST ACTIVITIES:

Go to http://web.mit.edu/iap/ .  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.





QUESTIONS/PROBLEMS WITH POSTING:

The updated posting form is easy to use.  However, please contact
iap-www at mit.edu  for any questions or posting problems.



We look forward to your group's participation in IAP and providing you with
any assistance you might need.  If you have any questions or concerns, don't
hesitate to contact us at iap-www at mit.edu or

x3-1668.
