I contacted Doug Mullin who came to some of the SLA-SC events last year and asked him if there were any handouts I could use at the orientation. He got me in contact with the woman who handles membership at headquarters (HQ!) and she sent me the two .pdf's that are in the previous post. The first is a membership brochure and the second is the SLA application form. There is no charge to be in the student chapter, but there is a formal application if you want to be a member of the SLA.
Doug also got me connected with Kyle Naff, who is the co-chair elect for the Wisconsin Chapter. He believes he will be able to come to the orientation, and is also interested in doing a student outreach night in October or November. Andrea Poehling is getting in touch with him to work out those details, and if the event happens then the SLA-SC will probably sponsor it. Please send in any suggestions for topics you would like to discuse with Mr. Naff. Ideas so far have included public speaking and how to best utilize that first job once you've gotten your MLIS.
