Virtual updates from Jannicke (meeting conflict for today)
Web presence:
- We found the website maintainer! (Gordon Watts), he has given admin access to Jannicke. Claire, Elise, John and Larry have been given edit access.
- Updates to website will be ongoing asynchronously
Mailing lists:
- about 10 new sign-ups to the uslua-general mailing list via CERN e-groups!
- USLUA registrations on the webpage are completely spammed by bots need to have some way to filter out participants and synch with CERN e-groups
Social Media:
- Claire's facebook post about the USLUA summer party reached 650 people with ~170 engagments
USLUA Coffee:
- June version had about 8 attendees
- July version had 4 attendees (holidays?), but more lively
- Coffee chat provided a stepping stone for someone to reach out about student loan forgiveness for CERN employees. They were able to meet with Julie Jolles from the US mission to go over some options, no conclusion yet though.
