[rfu-membership] Re: [WEFTi] preliminary March 25, 2008 PC agenda

[StrytlrJoG at aol.com]

Lavana,
 
Andrew's basically got it.  When I do an orientation for new members  of the 
Programming Committee (PC) at WEFT, I give them a copy of the program  
schedule for another community radio station to show them that "just cuz we have  a 
way that's good and that works doesn't mean there's not another way".   It's 
designed to ensure our thinking and philosophies stay fresh.  A visit  to your 
equivalent team meeting is -- my hope, anyway, going to have the same  
function.  And, yes, the networking I believe will naturally happen.   I think we can 
benefit, too, from the discussions that would naturally ensue:  what we have 
in common, how we've handled similar issues; and naturally, y'all  are welcome 
to visit us as well!
    We actually DID do a "field trip" months ago, but  only myself and one 
other PC member could attend, and the meeting y'all had  scheduled was canceled. 
  :P   Dan gave us a nice tour,  though, and explained everything, but I kept 
it on our meeting agenda cuz it was  a good idea.  Andrew helped push it back 
to the forefront. (Thanks,  dude!)
 
I see from your message that March 30 is your next meeting.  We meet  this 
Tuesday, so I'm not sure if we all can arrange that in time, but I've added  it 
to the agenda.  If we can get most of us there, I'll let you know, or  ask for 
the next date.  Presuming, of course, that you're okay with our  visiting.  
At most, it'd be 8 people.
 
Thanks for contacting me so quickly!  I look forward to hearing from  you!
 
Jason g.

Lavana,

Jason is the chair of the programming committee at WEFT.  Dan attended  
one of their meetings some time ago, and they're  interested in  
attending similar meetings at WRFU, to get more  insight into what  
WRFU is and how it operates.

My presumption  - and Jason can correct me if I'm wrong - is that this  
is intended  both to build links between the stations and learn about  
how the  stations' programming can work in complementary  fashion.
