Per SID's Policies and Procedures rules, student chapters can be formed to foment education in display technology amongst students. Formation of a new SID chapter requires demonstration of:
- Sufficient interest/support by potential local members (evidenced by a list of signatures, survey data, etc.), sponsors (shown by letters from several supportive industrial and/or academic institutions), and leaders (indicated by a list of candidates willing to serve as chapter officers and director), and
- Diligence/commitment expressed as a plan for the first-year program of technical meetings and proposed chapter bylaws consistent with SID Bylaws (as verified by Bylaws Chair).
The Chapter Formation Committee will facilitate the preparation of the petition and, in consultation with the appropriate Regional VP, determine whether/when to submit it to the Board. In terms of general guidelines from the past, if you have leadership, a program defined, and at least 10 members, we've found you should have the critical mass requisite for committee approval.
