From l.stogner@ieee.org Fri Jan 28 13:22:34 2000 Date: Fri, 28 Jan 2000 14:10:24 -0500 From: Lee Stogner Reply-To: r3-e-conf@ieee.org To: r3-e-conf@ieee.org, sec-r03@ieee.org Subject: Public Information Report - 29 Jan 2000 EXCOM Public Information Report - 29 Jan 2000 EXCOM The guide for Public Information is almost complete. When finished, this guide will provide detail on how to document a IEEE story and release it to the local media. The guide will also point to the various IEEE media outlets and how to utilize their services. When it's ready, I will send out a note to the sections and post the document on the Region 3 website. As the year goes on, sections will sponsor important meeting speakers, joint meetings with other groups, S-PACS, M-PACS and Special Projects. Please take time both before the event and after to document the success of the hard work. This document will be useful for the section archives and as a road map for future members to create their own event. Don't forget to send me copies of your news releases. If it is a really important story, I can help you get it into both national IEEE and public media outlets. Bottom line, if we don't write about the IEEE, no one else will.
