5: Summary of Annual Interest Group Meeting
Summary
of Annual Pre-Law Advising Interest Group Meeting, held
on October 8, 2004 at the NACADA national conference in
Cincinnati, Ohio. There were approximately 20 interested
people in attendance.
Our agenda included
a (brief) history of our group and a review of goals achieved
in 2003 - 2004. Those in attendance shared program ideas.
The group agreed that a list serve would be a useful means
of communication for Pre-Law Interest Group members and
that one should be established in a timely manner. Additional
goals were discussed for the 2004-2005 year, and volunteers
were identified who will contribute to the completion of
those goals.
