[Ansteorra] Student chapter?

[Stefan li Rous]

Giertrud,

While others have been concentrating on talking about how to start a  
group, that is a long term objective. I do have this file with more  
comments on starting a group in the SCA-INC section of the Florilegium:
new-groups-msg    (17K)  6/11/05    Procedures and advice on starting  
new SCA
                                        groups.

But I think you might be better served in the short term, and it  
could lead to the formation of an official SCA group, to find or  
create a household in Seguin. Such a group doesn't have all the  
official paperwork and officer requirements but still it gives you  
folks with a common interest to work and party with. And you can ease  
the trips to the other official groups and events by carpooling.

This file has some of the pros and cons to households.
households-msg    (34K)  2/ 5/08    Comments on households in the SCA.

As far as locating other students with similar interests or for  
recruiting folks for an incipient or regular group, perhaps these  
files might be of use:
recruiting-art    (16K)  7/13/02    "On the Recruiting and Retention  
of New
                                         Members" by Lady Meliora  
Leuedai de
                                         Ardescote.
recruitment-msg   (48K)  6/11/05    Recruitment ideas. bringing in  
new members.
