Yesterday was our iSchool-wide social hour and Student Organization Meeting.
There were tons of snacks, games (including Mario Kart!), and students from all three tracks, MLIS, MSIS, and MST. It was a great way to meet Jourdan’s classmates and other students in Tele, and those students in my classes that I hadn’t had a chance to get to know.
Afterwards, we had a brief Student Organization Meeting to get the basics of the organizations. We have 9 organizations,
-
American Society for Information Science & Technology (ASIS&T)
-
Diversity Student Organization (DSO)
-
Doctoral Guild
-
International Student Organization (ISO)
-
National Digital Stewardship Alliance (NDSA)
-
Society of American Archivists (SAA)
-
Special Libraries Association (SLA)
-
Student Chapter of the American Library Association (SCALA)
-
School of Information Sciences Graduate Organization (SISGO)
We’ll have nominations for the next week, and the following week to vote.
And, our Pitt Football team just beat University of New Mexico, 27-49! Hail to Pitt! (H2P)
