headed......why not u call the shots here......i am
willing to tale the responsibility of image building,
meeting commercial companies, setting thingz up as
and when required, co-ordinating the efforts of the
members nd students.
I suggest.......we begin by getting this down in
concrete.
So.......letz get don with the Project list nd the
Agenda for our Projecr Resource Center.
