Re: [GSAS-board] Board Stuff, Membership Fields, Membership Card and Forms

[Paul Wallace <pwallace@u.washington.edu>]

Susan & Eric:

I would like to discuss the automated "your dues will/are/have expired system" 
proposed some time ago.  I really appreciate that Susan personally bugged me 
several times, but I think automation will help us all.


I very much like the current name tags and membership cards but would also like 
to simplify production.  Here are some of my quick ideas (they will need work):

I propose printing up a batch of blank cards (with the color graphics) and 
filling in the name, member #, and expiration by hand.  This will allow us to 
generate new cards or replacements on the spot.

I also propose the same treatment with preprinted blanks for the name tags 
where the members can write in their own information.  Replacement and adding 
"interests" would be greatly simplified.

Susan, I would be happy to provide assistance in preparing blank cards (or any 
other printing matter) if needed. :)

-Paul
