Frances discussed the Interface production process and items that would appear in the next issue.  She is working on a submissions policy to encourage contributions and boost awareness of the publication.  She has also set up a reporting calendar for Committee Chairs.

Communications / Web Team - Sue Eipert
Sue discussed the structure of the Chapter website and described how each part is updated.  There is a reference area with permanent information, and the Interface area, which includes news and columns.  The Communications / Web Team will be evaluating other website items.  Vendor advertisements will be updated in February.  Sue reiterated that committee content is the responsibility of the Committee Chair.

Student Relations - Kim Emmons
Kim described this year's Student Night, which will be held on campus in February.  There will be no resume review, but the subject of the meeting will be related to mentoring.  This will be an opportunity to sell SLA as an organization to current students.
