[Rangelands] RE: Western Rangelands Partnership meet-up at USAIN

[Level,Allison]

Hi Amy,

I agree with Norma, I would like to stay in the IG room and it is budget-friendly. There was a survey that went out to USAIN members who were part of the AgNIC IG this spring, and there was some movement at maybe disbanding the AgNIC IG. Since Rangelands is part of AgNIC, it would be nice to lend our support to the AgNIC IG if we are "fans" of that IG as well. (Personally I would like to see the USAIN AgNIC IG continue.)

A nifty table sign is a good idea! We will see and be seen. Thanks.

Allison

Hi Amy,
I'm staying at the Purdue Union, so that's fine with me.
But I think your idea about people who don't know about
us being more likely to find our group if we are in the IG
session is a good one. Also, depending on how long we need,
it's possible that some of us would then have time to go
over to another table if we belong to more than one IG.
