Alums Establish a Yahoo-group to Share Experience, Keep in Touch
Some smart alum has set up a Yahoo-group "intended to provide
a convenient method for past, present, and future generations of
the USC-Columbia theatre community
to keep in contact with one another." Find the group at this address: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/usctheatre/
You have to join the group to participate but membership is free.
You can participate as little or as much as you wish and joining
will not expose you to more spam.
Members share personal information and professional leads. One
writes about moving to a new city; he's looking for information
on neighborhoods and theatre work. Two members, both alums,
share pictures of their wedding.
The links page offers connections to job sites, union sites and
so on.
The usctheatre group is an perfect example of what the internet
can do so well: facilitate communication amongst people in different
parts of the world with a shared interest.
Yahoo markets groups
as the easiest way for groups
of
people
to
communicate
on
the Internet:
stay in touch with friends, family and colleagues; discuss sports,
health, news, and more; connect with people who share your interests.
Groups are organized by topic and at this writing there are nearly
6,000
groups related to theatre in some way.
