Changes to the FORCE group e-mail

Hello FORCErs,

As you all know, having FORCE as an open email list has been problematic in terms of spam and messages unnecessarily sent to all 100+ members. For this reason, we have decided to change the group settings so that only the moderator can send emails to the entire list. If someone has an announcement or event or anything related to FORCE or feminism, please send it to force4change@ yahoo.com and after checking it for relevancy (i.e. making sure it is not spam) we will then forward it to the entire group. While we don't want it to seem as though we are policing the group messages, we want to ensure that people are not bothered unnecessarily to the point that they begin ignoring all FORCE emails.

So again, if you have something you would like the entire group to know about, send us an email and include your contact information if necessary and we will be sure to forward it as soon as possible. We are still working out the glitches but we will give this a try for a while and hopefully this will greatly improve the email system. Also, we will be maintaining the MySpace page, Facebook group, blog, and message board so you all pretty much have your choice of preferred form of communication.

Thanks for your patience as we try to make things as efficient as possible. And don't forget to stop by the FORCE meetings in the WRC Tuesdays 3:30-4:30pm.
