To everyone- Thank you for all the ideas, I'm going to start writing our constitution and work on starting the group. And for IDSA and IxDA being combined, we were considering this. However, if we split the clubs up, we would have more funding, and thus be able to host more speakers/events.
Janna, thank you for replying to my question so quickly- I would be really interested in further discussing the role of an IxDA student chapter on a campus. Per your three questions: 1. As far as I'm aware, there are no IxDA student groups nearby, I could be mistaken though (there are no other design schools nearby). 2. For UC, the major organization is less important than the student group. So as long as the student group has a structure, then we should be ok. 3. This is something that should probably discussed more, as it relates to what an IxDA student group would actually do. However, organizations here tend to be very collaborative. For example, IDSA and SAID may both sponsor a certain event to have a speaker come in (as in they both contribute members and money to run the event). The same would probably go for IxDA. Finally, could you elaborate a bit on what a basecamp would be? I'm still a little unclear as to what it actually is (it does sound incredibly exciting though!). Thank you so much for the support!
