Hi Jess and all,

As far as I know the NY student division has been active on and off
through the years. Nooria Nodrat was the last president, but I am not
sure if there is an official board of officers established at this
time. The good news though is that since a division has existed
before, it'll be easier for you and other NY students to re-start it.
I know there have been a number of scholarship winners from New York
state who could very well have an interest in helping you to
reorganize the student division; Mr. Jacobsen can give you  their
names.

Also, just as a reminder, every state has a representative from  the
NABS board assigned to it regardless of whether or not you have a
student division organized at present. The regional reps are available
for any NABS members to call upon for help in organizing student
divisions, planning events or dealing with any other issues related to
your student division. The rep for New York is Jennifer Kennedy, who
can be reached at
msjenniferkennedy at gmail.com
Please contact any of us off-list if you aren't sure who your regional rep is.

Cheers
Arielle Silverman
First Vice-President, NABS
