[Athen] ATHEN text for AHG 2006 registration form

[Berkowitz, Daniel J]

How about something explaining how all of the members are good looking and smart as whips!
 
OK -- better than that -- talk up the ATHEN track of programs and make mention of the networking and social opportunities. Networking can be facilitated by marking our nametags with something (a big red 'A' or a grecian column or some such). We all know that one night of the conference we will be have an ATHEN night out for dinner and drinks.

Hello All:

Here is the text I was planning to put on the Accessing Higher Ground registration form explaining ATHEN. It comes directly from the Web site.

Access Technologists Higher Education Network (ATHEN)
ATHEN is a professional association and network for Access Technologists in Higher Education. The purpose of ATHEN is to collect and disseminate best practices in access technology in the higher education environment as well as present a collective voice for the professional practice of access technology in higher education. For more information on ATHEN membership and its benefits, see the web site at: www.athenpro.org

<http://www.athenpro.org/> Also, I only posted the option for Professional Membership due to space limitations. Should the other memberships be mentioned or will folks probably pick that up by going to the ATHEN Pro Web site. Any thought on a specific blurb on the Web site indicating the benefits of membership?

Thanks,
Howard
