TGIF folks, This is your Friday update and friendly "nudge" to get your rooms booked for our upcoming PDS *deadline for our special rate is Sept. 7th midnight. As of this AM, I received an email from the Doubletree showing me that the only one booked for a room was little ole me. This is not good people. I even down-scaled the attendance a bit, but we definitely need people to book. I am close to closing a deal with the Gates Millenium Scholarship Fund to host a workshop for our event. I am still in need of workshop proposals geared for all of our target programs. I know everyone in our chapter knows a colleague or two, so spread the word and also consider submitting a proposal yourself. We need representation for all program types. Check out our chapter website as well (PDS '08). Hope all is well in TRiO-land and have a great week-end! "Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit." -Conrad Hilton
