<ul>
    <li><b>&quot;Unique Opened&quot;</b> and <b>&quot;Open Rate&quot;</b> under represent the number of unique recipients because they count only successful pings to our servers.  Blackberries, text only readers and all mail readers where the user does not select &quot;download pictures&quot; are not counted.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
    <li>Total opened includes every time the email is opened and read.  Our experience is the actual  number of  readers is somewhere between<b> &quot;Unique&quot; </b>and <b>&quot;Total&quot;</b> and the actual open rate is at least 50% higher than the reported <b>&quot;Open Rate&quot;</b>. </li>

            <description><![CDATA[ * You can choose multiple sections for each post so that your post can be accessed from different parts of the site.  
 * Simply hold down the shift key to select multiple sections.
 * You do not have to enter the post multiple times!  
 * For example, if you have a new album about to be released, you can enter the information about the album and perhaps the release date and select:
announcements, yalies on the air, and arts.  Your post can then be referenced from different channels within the site. ]]></description>

 Please consider attending the LatPro job fair taking place in NYC on Thursday, April 15, 2010.  YALE will be there recruiting LATINO professionals.  
 
 

 

Yale is a great place to work, offers great benefits, and is situated in a wonderful community. In a time of economic instability, Yale has weathered far better than many other top-notch institutions. There are a number of positions available, in everything from Finance to Research. Please attend the fair, meet the recruiters, and make a special stop at the Yale booth.

            <description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:larger;">Dear Fellow Alums, <br /><br />
We hope to see many of you at our first ever Yale Latino Alumni Reunion (YLAA), which will be held April 3 - 5! A team of dozens of Latino alumni have volunteered their time to organize this exciting event, which is the first national event being organized by YLAA. <br /><br />
At the Reunion, we will provide an update on YLAA's organizational development and results from the AYA/YLAA survey that was sent out in the Fall, hold a brainstorming session on future YLAA's future, and announce the nominations and elections process for the first elected Board. We hope to have a new Board installed later this year and encourage you to think about nominating your friends or YOURSELF! For now, we wanted to provide the attached overview of the organization. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.<br /><br />
We are certain that tons of energy will be created from the exciting program that the Reunion Committee Co-Chairs, Araceli Campos and Sara Salvide, have been working with their team on. We truly believe that the Reunion will fulfill the message of its theme, <span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Uniting ...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>This site has two ways of recognizing members, with email/name insecure authentication and stronger email/password authentication.</p>
<p>Any time you make a new post or click on the &quot;manage my subscriptions&quot; from an email, you are logged into this website insecurely, by using your email and full name only.</p>
<p>This easy and insecure way of logging in is available to let users post easily, without setting a password and also to allow a user to easily manage subscriptions from email newsletters without requiring a complicated password setup process.</p>
<p>Email/name combinations for many people are easy to guess, however, such as John Doe and john.doe@xyzcompany.com.</p>
<p>We therefore  restrict what can be done with this insecure authentication.</p>
<p>To <a href="/11706/How_do_I_login_securely_using_a_password">login securely</a> you will need to relogin using a secret password in addition to your email address.  This password can only be discovered by using the main email address we have on file with your user account.</p>
<p>Instructions login securely and to set or reset your password can be found <a href="/11706/How_do_I_login_securely_using_a_password">here.</a></p>
<p> </p>
<ol>
    <li>logout by pressing logout in the top left of the screen next to your name (or press login securely once this is implemented)</li>
    <li>Press login in the top left once the page reloads</li>
    <li>in the dialog that pops up enter you user name and password*</li>
    <li>you will now be logged in securely and can change view and change all your personal profile information including <a href="/11705">change your email address</a> for newsletters and for your login ID </li>
</ol>
<p> </p>
<p> *If you have not set a password, or need a new password, instructions to set or reset your password in are as follows:</p>
<ol>
    <li>Press login in the top left of the page</li>
    <li>in the dialog that pops up press &quot;need password?&quot;</li></ol>]]></description>

            <title>Response Needed to Changes to Yale Freshman/Ethnic Counselor Program</title>
            <link>http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/9061/Response_Needed_to_Changes_to_Yale_Freshman_Ethnic_Counselor_Program</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,</p>
<p>My name is Robert Sanchez (SY '08) and I am writing to ask for your help in responding to changes being implemented to Yale  College's counseling program. In the upcoming weeks, the Yale administration plans to make changes to its freshman counselor program. As former students who benefited from the EC program, past ECs, and concerned alumni, we feel that the proposed changes would be detrimental to the counselor program and would have a negative impact on future students of color entering Yale. Unless we respond quickly, these new changes will begin to take place in the next week.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposed changes are outlined below, as well as a list of some of the problems we feel exist with the new plans. We ask that you please read through these changes, our concerns, and respond by writing an email to Dean Mary Miller, Dean of Yale College (<a href="mailto:mary.miller@yale.edu">mary.miller@yale.edu</a>) and Dean Marichal Gentry, Dean of Student Affairs (<a href="mailto:marichal.gentry@yale.edu">marichal.gentry@yale.edu</a>).  <b><u>Please respond ASAP this week</u></b> as these changes will begin to be implemented in the upcoming days. The email should only take a few minutes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In your response, we encourage you to elaborate as much as you would like, sharing your own experiences with the counselor program and why you feel it is important to preserve. It is very important to share our viewpoints as alums to the administration, to demonstrate why they need to change their approach to the counselor program. Also, <b><i>please pass this along to other alums</i></b> who would be interested in helping to respond.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you for your help with this issue.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p> </p>

            <link>http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/7588/Union_Leaders_of_the_Future_Scholarship</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Embracing its mission to enhance the value of union membership and <br />
support a stronger labor movement, Union Privilege has developed a <br />
scholarship program to help more women and people of color become <br />
union leaders. The program provides annual awards up to $3,000 to <br />
help future leaders with the cost of continuing their education or <br />
training in order to pursue their union career goals and leadership <br />
skills.<br /><br />
How to Apply<br />
Visit the Union Plus site for more information and to download an <br />
application. The application deadline is September 29, 2007.<br /><br />
Eligibility<br />
A current union member from the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, Guam and <br />
the Virgin Islands of a union participating in any Union Plus <br />
program. <br /><br />
Completed application form with a recommendation letter from a union <br />
leader who has knowledge of the applicant's leadership potential. <br /><br />
Applicant must be female and/or a member of a racial/ethnic <br />
minority, defined as American Indian or Alaskan, Asian or Pacific <br />
Islander, African American, Hispanic, or multi-racial.<br /><br />
Award Usage<br />
Applied toward the completion of an accredited degree, coursework or <br />
seminar at an accredited educational institution (college, <br />
university, community college, recognized technical or trade <br />
school). Important note: Not all union-sponsored leadership training <br />
courses are accredited. This program is offered under the Union Plus <br />
Education Foundation Trust, which means the program is restricted to <br />
granting awards for degrees/courses/seminars that are accredited. <br /><br />
Financial need includes the cost of tuition/seminar fees, and <br />
related travel and expenses.<br /><br />

            <title>04/20/07 - Historic donation to Latino Alumni Fund</title>
            <link>http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/6420/04_20_07_Historic_donation_to_Latino_Alumni_Fund</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>At last weeks event, the interim working group also announced a  				goal of raising $2,500 to benefit the Latino Alumni Fund and the  				Latino Alumni Prize.  The group believed the goal was attainable  				but could not have anticipated that it would be surpassed almost  				as quickly as it was announced.  Carlos M. Morales, class of  				75, Senior Vice President and Associate General Counsel at  				Merrill Lynch, pledged a $10,000  challenge grant that very  				evening.  His generous contribution will not only support the  				Latino Alumni Prize, it will help provide for the immediate,  				emergency needs for many of our current students.  The 				<span class="st">Board</span> and I will work  				with Carlos and all our other donors to make sure these funds  				are used wisely and effectively. <br />
 <br />
We are extremely appreciative of Carlos' support and have no  				doubt that his gift will inspire other alumni to make meaningful  				contributions.  I also anticipate that his challenge will be  				met. Indeed, we collected almost $1,000 at last weeks event to  				start that effort. Given what Ive learned in my work with  				Latino alumni from other regions, Im guessing they will be  				looking to embellish on the job that Carlos and the other  				Tri-State area alumni already started.  If you are interested in  				making a tax-deductible contribution to the Latino Alumni Fund, 				<a href="http://www.yalelatinos.com/Pledge%20Card%20Latino%20Alumni%20Fund.doc">please  				see the attached pledge form</a>.</p>]]></description>

            <title>Judges Needed for New York City Science and Engineering Fair</title>
            <link>http://www.yalenet.org/ylat/6278/Judges_Needed_for_New_York_City_Science_and_Engineering_Fair</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p> </p>
<p>The New York City Science and Engineering Fair for NYC High School students is, for the first year, sponsored by the City University of New York under the auspices of the CUNY College Now Program (which I work for).<br />
<br />
The Science Fair is looking for judges in fourteen areas, including social and behavioral sciences. Judges can be practicing scientists, doctoral students or other professionals in their fields in the New York City area (unfortunately the program cannot provide accommodations or funding for people coming from outside the area).<br />
<br />
It's an excellent volunteer opportunity and a chance to meet talented students from throughout New York City and become involved in fostering and promoting science education.<br />
<br />
You can find more information on qualifications for judges as well as the fair in general on the website:<br />
http://collegenow.cuny.edu/sciencefair/<br />
<br />
I can answer some questions as well, or at least direct you to someone who definitely can.<br />
<br />
Thanks so much!<br />

            <description><![CDATA[<p></p><p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:rgb(153,51,0);"><b>&gt;&gt; this document is for use on all OneClickClub sites, please edit with this in mind &lt;&lt;</b></span></p>

<h3 style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255);"></span></h3>
<p>The key to sustaining your group is ensuring more than one person has ownership of the group.</p>
<p>Extending ownership involves reaching out to other collaborators and also documenting policies for the organization and management of the group. </p>
<p>The combination of Leadership (time and effort expeded by individuals) and Governance (documents and policies to guide Leadership efforts) is the essential life force of an organization.  If assembled correctly this combination will give your organization a life of its own.</p>

</span></h2>
<h3 style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255);"></span></h3>
<p>If you want a lot of people to come it helps to have lots of people inviting people to  your event. </p>
<p>There are two key elements to this:</p>
<ul>
    <li>get a diverse group to act as hosts</li>
    <li>make sure everyone hosting has ownership over the event</li>
</ul>
<h3>Getting a Diverse Host Committee</h3>
<p>It is ideal to collect hosts that are spread among the demographics of your constituency.  If you share Hosting duties with only your best friends, then you are less likely to reach into areas of your constituency where you may not already have as strong relationships.</p>
<p>You may also want to consider</p>
<ul>
    <li>defining a mission for your event</li>
    <li>the diversity of your host committee (age, vocation, socioeconomic)</li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<h3>Reaching Out</h3>
<p>Reaching out to collaborators almost always takes personal contanct and rapor.   ...</p>]]></description>
