OLSON@ACMVM.BITNET (Beth Olson, ACM Headquarters) (06/06/91)
Greetings all,
For some time now, we've been talking about how to get ACM local groups
aware of (and hopefully involved in) ACM conferences taking place in their
local areas. The Local Activities Board, the Conferences Board, and staff
at HQ are working on some sort of process to make the notification
automatic. I am hoping that something will be done by the fall.
In the meantime, the staff in the SIG Services department has taken the
first step, which is sending out a list of all the new conferences added to
their database in the last two months.
So here it is -- take a look. If there is a conference being planned in
your area, and if your group is interested in getting involved, contact to
conference organizer. Students note: MANY ACM conferences offer free
registration to students who put in a half-day of volunteering. Chapters
note: a COUPLE ACM conferences have been known to arrange surplus sharing
with local groups who take care of conference local arrangements.
Feedback, please...is this useful? Regards-
Beth

I notice a couple of things missing from this list: 1) The Seventh Computer Security Applications Conference (being held in cooperation with SIGSAC) is looking for Student Volunteers. The conference is Dec 2-6 1991 in San Antonio, TX. 2) There will be Computer Security Day observations in several cities. This is something the local chapters can (and should, in my opinion), be involved in to whatever extent that can be. The ACM POC is Lisa Ernst <ernst@acmvm.bitnet>.

Computer Security Day is December 2nd. The original goal of the day was to
have at least one day a year when everyone was aware of computer security
(like the one day a year when you should change the batteries in your smoke
alarm). Good things to do are:
o change your password
o backup your system
o conduct user education on security
o review disaster plans
etc.
