The ASGA team spent most of December updating and enhancing the "look" of the home pages for each of our 10 conference web sites. Just finished the National Student Government Summit yesterday.
The new designs are unique to each conference, using typefaces, colors, and images that represent each city.
We're in the midst of updating all of the rest of the pages at each conference web site, which probably will take close to another month.
Design changes are mentally tiring and time-consuming. But our sites haven't been visually updated since 2005. So we're way past due for a new look!

New focus on research
ASGA is about to announce a brand-new section of our resources at www.asgaonline.com. The new section will be "Research."
We've always done research for our members when asked. If they need help looking into trends on an issue nationwide, we have helped out by surveying similar schools by e-mail, phone, and fax.
Now, it's an official part of our resources. There will be a form that lets members make a research request. And there will be links to past research ASGA has conducted, such as on voting turnout totals nationwide, smoking policies, student discount cards, and student activity fees.
ASGA helps our members most by saving them time. This is just another way ASGA accomplishes that goal.

Two down, two to go
We're halfway through the fall ASGA conference schedule. DC and Chicago are done, with Dallas and Los Angeles coming up.
So far, our attendance numbers for all events are up over last year, which was our best year ever.
It's obvious that ASGA's reputation is growing and the "word-of-mouth" is spreading.
It's an exciting time for ASGA, as we're nearing 1,100 member institutions.
As executive director, my ultimate goal for membership has been 1,500. I predict that we'll pass that in two more years!
