The group suffered a minor setback at the beginning of the academic year due to a lack of nominations for SAASC officers. Once five officers had stepped forward, the group encountered another obstacle when our chair, Carri Wohlwend, was forced to resign for personal reasons a few months into the year. After Ms. Wohlwend’s departure, Paige Minister stepped up from her position of Vice Chair to Chair and Jason Baker took on the added responsibility of Vice Chair to keep the group going.   The document below summarizes the SAASC member information and events for the 2013-2014 academic year. Some of the group’s accomplishments include the establishment of the “Refolder Your Brain” Social Hour, a monthly event to allow students interested in archives to socialize, and an increase in the group’s social media presence.
