There's no reason not to restart the WPILA, especially since it provides meeting space here on campus. I'm sure it will be closely tied to WLUG, of course. Ryan Caron On Wed, 24 Sep 2003, Chuck Haines wrote:
The club has indeed falled through the cracks. As far as I know, WPI still recognizes us as a club, but we might need to get some paperwork in to continue that (possibly a revised constitution). I would definitely be interested in restarting up the club, since I've got tons more time this year than last.
As for reserving rooms, any WPI Alum if I remember correctly can reserve a room. I know there are a ton of WPI alum's in WLUG so it shouldn't be a problem.

If anyone wants to cantact the last known WPILA officers, they are Adam Elliott <aelliott>, Jeff Simpson <jeffs>, Steven Howard Frank <movieguy>, David Barboza <dbarboza>, and Chuck Haines <chaines>. They may have the WPILA members list, announce list, and/or passwords. Chuck, as Lab Manager, probably has the passwords.
Well, if the club is still recognized *now*, why start over? If WPI doesn't *know* it is defunct, then you work with the last known officers, follow the bylaws, and get new officers - if they don't wish to continue running the club. Surely there is some provision for transfer of power - they can resign, you hold a new election, and the club continues on as the same entity.
Don't try to restart the club, just continue it - much easier with the administration.
