PLEASE EXCUSE THE MESS

Mark Twain once said that "The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them." Aside from reading (journals and magazines are important too), joining organizations and developing relationships with like-minded people is a necessary stepping stone for any aspiring student or professional. Seek an advantage by aligning yourself with other professionals in your field of interest. Talk with your teacher about which group would be best for you. Also talk with you teacher about understanding the importance of the following terms: Organization, Conferences, Journal, Discussion Group, and Listserv.
