[Fellows] Fellows of AICP Request

[More, Sarah]

That is the sort of thing I was thinking about. I've often done career day presentations at middle schools, Girl Scouts, etc. And, we used to do a big effort at the national conference sites.  But, a sustainable effort, in conjunction with chapters, in schools would be great.

If anyone is interested in reaching out to the schools, particularly 4th through 8th grade, there are some very good programs available.  If the next generation learns more about planning when they're young, perhaps they'll be more likely to support planning when they are adults.

Thanks for the ideas and communication, David.  We are trying something similar among the Texas Fellows (those of us who are still maintaining an active profile).  We divided the planning schools amongst us and are reaching out to the PSO's and faculty, to encourage more interaction with the chapter.  After a couple of years, the results are mixed, but generally better than before.  Attendance by Texas students at chapter and national conferences is up, and the faculty has welcomed our interest and support.  We are coordinating the efforts with the Chapter Board of Directors.

Looking forward to meeting in Philadelphia.

Greetings Fellow Fellows!

I'm sorry that I will not be able to join you in Philadelphia.  However, I have a question that I would like to encourage you to discuss at the meeting (informally) or via this list serve (Lynn's message reminded me that this list serve existed, so I thought I would try to put it to use!).

The Wisconsin FAICP contingent (all three of us!) have been contemplating what, if anything, we, as Fellows, might do at the Chapter (or District) level to contribute to the profession.  For example, perhaps we should initiate and lead some sort of community education effort, or maybe sponsor a planning symposium, etc.

We thought it would be useful to use this list serve to try to tap into your collective wisdom and brainpower and see if any of you are undertaking these sorts of activities (again, focused at the Chapter or District level).  If you have any ideas, please respond to me (or reply to the entire list).

Best regards,

David S. Boyd, FAICP
Madison, Wisconsin
