CHAPTER NEXUS
The Board of Trustees of ASM International has voted unanimously to approve the Charter of the new, Gujarat Chapter of ASM International in India. This marks the first new Professional Chapter of ASM since 1991, and highlights the ongoing chapter development in India. The
chapter will be led by the new officers:
India
currently hosts the following Professional and Student Chapters: India has the third largest membership by country with 643 members. CHAPTER FORUM - Share Ideas, Ask Questions, Learn Best Practices In response to the desire of chapter members to have a location to discuss on a global level any ideas, issues or thoughts that come up, Chapter Council developed the Chapter Forum for an open discussion among members. Following the same format as the popular topical discussion groups under the ASK ASM page of the website, the Chapter Forum is a great place to share best practices, talk about your successes and challenges and continue the number one reason for chapter activity... NETWORKING! Give it a try!
MATERIAL ADVANTAGE STUDENT PROGRAM - Society Cooperation Leads to Big Benefits As the academic year is coming to a close, the Material Advantage program is experiencing considerable success and growth. Some key factors include:
"Membership growth is exciting, but ultimately, our goal is for these young members to become contributing professional members and future leaders of our chapters and society," said Melanie Walker, Coordinator for Chapter Relations & Membership. "Whenever you work with students, remember to promote the 'Prepare to Succeed' program and encourage students to take advantage of their free year of professional membership with ASM!" Material Advantage student members have been very positive about the program. For example: "My close involvement as an officer with the Material Advantage Student Chapter has meant a wealth of great challenges, opportunities and rewards that I did not even think were out there! I have sharpened my leadership and communication skills, networked with fellow students and professionals alike, traveled, educated myself as well as others. It has made me a better person and a better professional." -- Juan Villegas, Material Advantage student member, MS&E, University of Connecticut For more information on Material Advantage visit the website: www.materialadvantage.org or contact Melanie Walker: Melanie.Walker@ASMInternational.org ANNUAL CHAPTER REPORTS - Annual year-end chapter report deadline approaching The
