UNIGROUP GENERAL MEETING
MEETING INTRODUCTION
Unigroup wishes you a Happy New Year 2016!
** For January 2016, Unigroup's meeting is happening ONE WEEK EARLIER than normal (on the 2nd Thursday), due to easier classroom availability at that time.
Unigroup is pleased to announce our January 2016 meeting, which will cover the latest Intel CPU Architecture Roadmaps. Unigroup's Intel Contact, Charles Milo, will be back to update us regarding the latest CPU features, and what to look for in the newest CPU releases.
Unigroup Elections: Unigroup holds Board of Director Elections every January. If you are a Unigroup Member and would like to run for the Unigroup Board, please contact us on or before our January meeting. Board members are expected to regularly attend Unigroup General and Board Meetings, and basically help the rest of the board run Unigroup. If you would like to help out Unigroup, but not join the board officially, please let us know. Unigroup needs your help! Unigroup is a not-for-profit volunteer organization, and has been serving the Greater NYC Metro Unix/Linux/BSD Users Community for over 30 years!

FEE SCHEDULE
Unigroup is a Professional Technical Organization and User Group, and its members pay a yearly membership fee.

! Students: We are looking for proof that you are
currently enrolled in classes (rather than working
full-time), and as such, your Student ID should show
a CURRENT date. We have been presented Student IDs
containing NO dates whatsoever, and in the
current environment, perpetual/non-expiring access
to university facilities just does not feel right.
If your ID contains no date, please bring
additional proof of current enrollment. Thanks.
