Deputy Communications

Responsible for communications activities of the A&D SIG including, but not limited to:

1. Helps obtain/develop material for SIG newsletter and monthly bulletin
2. Helps edit the newsletter and monthly bulletin as needed
3. Analyzes ways in which the SIG membership can better communicate internally and externally
4. Reports to Vice-Chair Communications, serving as backup when required

Does the above description I submitted sound accurate to you? How should we differentiate the Deputy vs. the VC Communications? In reality, I was never really aware of what the role entailed other than editing upon request, backing up the VC Communications upon request, and offering suggestions regarding communication tool. I haven't had many requests since Tom left, and unfortunately I've been to swamped to do much proactive work. It would be good to get someone on board with the energy, availability, and A&D connections to make some progress.
