USER GROUP SURVEY: STAYING INFORMED ANSWERS & USER GROUP GEAR PREFERENCES
QUESTION
Last week's MUG Center Survey question asked you to tell us about how you
stay informed on user group news and information. The overall conclusion
is obvious: user group leaders are interested and actively seek out the
information they need to run their groups. This week we shift to a more
single-group oriented topic. Most user groups promote themselves via
items of clothing or other items imprinted with their organization's
logo. This creates identity as well as raises the group's public
visibility. What promotional items or clothing do your members prefer?
