Membership Doings

MEMBERSHIP DOINGS By Gloria Yost, Hedda Smithson

The recent rains definitely let us know summer is long past.  A quiet beginning of a November without a branch-wide event brought us the rush of the holiday season.  Your membership team has been busy though. See the article about AAUW and CSUS elsewhere in this Capital Ideas. We have much to offer the campus, AND did you notice the salary negotiation workshops listed, such as Work Smart?  National offers a series of webinars each semester that any of us can take just by signing up.  I remember Donna Holmes telling us how she used the techniques she picked up from one workshop to negotiate a better deal when buying a new car.  Negotiation skills are valuable for many situations.
