[nabs-l] Nabs membership committee welcomes you to an open membership call.

[Mauricio Almeida]

hello,

Indeed, I absolutely second what Elizabeth has said.
While I have some ideas on how to reach to members, it will be priceless to hear more about how people are doing that on a national level.

Sincerely,

Mauricio

I am curious though, is this call geared more towards building membership on the national level where you are seeking ideas to increase the membership as a whole, or is it geared more towards giving state student divisions advice on how they can increase membership within their own state? Or maybe perhaps a combination of the two?  If you will be focusing any time on how state student divisions can increase their membership, then I want to make sure that someone from Michigan will be on the call. Our state student division is kind of dying out, so we could definitely use some help in reaching out to new members.
