TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Hmmm, attend one meeting, have an idea or two knocked down, and then
post a "they were mean to us" note to the list?
A comment about the real world would just be way too trite.

I think the option of contacting the region director/sponsor is a good
one. Also, my STC directory lists Jack Jobst (jjobst -at- mtu -dot- edu) and H. Young
Kim (young -at- vm1 -dot- ucc -dot- okstate -dot- edu) as leading STC Student Chapter
development efforts.
