President's Message	return to top
Welcome back everyone and welcome to 2005. This is going to be a new year for AITP and what an exciting one it’s going to be. I have great expectations for this year and I want to start out by Thanking everyone who has agreed to be on the board. I know with this group, we are going to make things happen. As you have heard by now, we have been selected to host the Regional 7 conference and the Student Chapter Conference here in Birmingham this year. This will give our chapter an enormous amount of exposure and will reintroduce AITP to the corporate world. Maurice Myers has taken on the task of making this the best ever and I want to encourage everyone to get involved as he’s selecting his committees. Thank you Maurice. I can’t have a message without talking about our Student Chapters. Over the last year I have seen an increase in interest from them. UAB had a great year last year. They’ve had excellent speakers and were able expose themselves thru community work. UAH has revitalized their chapter. They’ve held several meetings and have a great network exposing them to job opportunities. We were also visited by Jacksonville State last year. Congratulations Students. Well, let’s get started guys. Have a great month and I look forward to seeing you all at the meeting. Chapter President
