Technical Communicators of Florida and Beyond,
Welcome! It’s hard to believe that it’s already been another year. As we stand on the cusp of a new decade, I’m excited to bring you this month’s jam-packed and historic newsletter.
To start, this month, we have our holiday reunion social! For more information, visit the RSVP page.
Next, last month, I had the honor of sharing with you the exciting news of a new graduate scholarship at the University of Central Florida (UCF), inspired by one of our amazing members, Mike Murray! This month, Karen Lane goes more in-depth on the scholarship and how you can help ensure this wonderful scholarship becomes permanently funded.
Speaking of Mike, today marks a historic moment for our chapter: the launch of our chapter history project, a 3-years-in-the-making project spearheaded by Mike. Read on as Mike and Dan Voss explain the enormous task undertaken by Mike and other members of our chapter to flesh out 43 years of our chapter’s history.
In addition, Mike and Dan also share the third installment in the Looking Back, Looking Forward column, this time focusing on communications strategy.
Next up, Amy Troung shares the exciting news about the successful 2019-2020 mentorship program kick-off meeting (this year marking 154 partnerships and counting)!
Finally, W.C. Wiese wraps up this month by recapping our November meeting/workshop focused on the Ethics of Intercultural Communication.
That’s all from me for now. I hope to see you at the social, and until next year…happy holidays!
Catch you on the flip side,
Emily Wells
