INVOLVEMENT &
IDEAS
We need a new Webmaster! Do you
have FrontPage and FTP skills? Could you use community/club officer involvement
on your resume? Let us know at
austinpurdueclub@gmail.com if you'd like to be our next Webmaster! And to
make it easy, our current Webmaster, Randy Rieffel, has created a detailed
website maintenance document for you!
A huge shout out goes to Randy who has been an amazing webmaster for the past several years but because he recently moved to Dallas and takes extended mission trips to Africa, he will need to step down. Randy, thank you so much for your dedication and hard work with the Austin Alumni Club!
