6 TC Reminder: TC-Sponsored Workshops Two types  Part of conference program (included in conference planning and expenses)  Before or after conference (can be included in conference planning and expenses but have not been in many cases) Issue: Financial risk to Institute Please include in conference planning form so workshop expenses can be accounted for ahead of time and meeting space is covered Workshops strongly supported by TAC!!

7 TC Reminder: TC Funds ASG is still leaving more than 50% of our funds on the table each year ($9,100/Year Total for ASG) VP TAC is very receptive to Student Paper Award Proposals Need good, creative ideas (with technical content) from TCs so we can utilize the funds for what they were intended!!! Recent approved items  TC Polo shirts (TAC paid ½)  Student recognition (e.g. Student Paper Award Fee)  Bus transportation for TC academic site visit Still Time for FY10: Fiscal Year ends 30 September

8 TC Issues: Conference Improvement ASM  Revamped starting in 2009 by adding New Horizons Forum & Expo (Revolutionary)  Continuously looking for improvements through comments & suggestions Ways to improve other ASG conferences?  High-level speakers  Modified conference format  Workshops & Special sessions 8

9 TC Issues: Chair-Elects Selection: Make sure to get Chair-Elects selected immediately after you take over as Chair in May Timeline:  Take office 1 May  Select Chair-Elect by December of that year  Chair-Elect training: Get Chair-Elect trained the following January at ASM.  Chair-Elect can act as your deputy for 1 ½ years while you serve as Chair!  Some TCs have the Chair-Elect serve as Secretary, which is an excellent idea!! Remember that TC Chair position is for 2 years!!

10 TC Issues: TC Member Responsibilities Maintain current AIAA Membership (must be an AIAA member) Recruit new TC members Submit names for AIAA awards Submit names for AIAA elected offices Propose membership upgrades Propose session papers for AIAA journals 10

11 TC Issues: Several Conference Site Selection  Need to set up conference location 3-4 years into future  Preferred date flexibility & more competitive hotel contract Technical Committee size  35 US Members  Associated members 34 years old or younger  International members  Must get approval of ASG Director or Dep. Director to extend TC member beyond 3 year term  Cost to AIAA when TC membership goes above ~50 –Dinner cost –Audio Visual (AV) and speaker system 2011 Congressional Visits Day  TCs being canvassed for current Aerospace issues 11
