Dear CSG Friends:
This email is for anyone interested in the CSG Conference planned for August 3-6, 2017 at Northwestern University.
Because of the limited number of people who have registered to attend, we are intending to hold an alternative, smaller, two day conference (including an official Annual CSG Meeting and election of officers) to be held Friday, August 4 and Saturday, August 5, 2017.
Tentative schedule:
Friday 8:30 or 9:00 Breakfast and Opening Meeting
11:00 or so Visit the archives
12:30 or 1:00 pm Lunch and possible PCT presentations/discussions with local faculty & students
Saturday Annual Meeting - a day of deciding the status and future of the Control Systems Group
9:00-10:30 11:00-12:30 3:00-5:00 7:00 Closing Supper
Bill Powers’ daughters, Allison and Barbara, have devoted a considerable amount of time and energy organizing this meeting after canvassing interest among CSG past members a year ago. Some thirty persons indicated an interest at that time, but only eight of you have actually sent in a registration (Eight have also sent a clear reply of not being able to attend). Hence, a decision was made to host a smaller event.
Based on our Bylaws on Membership* and the fact that we will do everything possible to make the conference electronically and telephonically attendable, IF you pay your dues before the meeting, you will be a member and are welcome to participate and vote on the future of CSG.
Current membership is $60 annually, $30 for students. Membership duration: July 1, 2017-June 30, 2018. All who become or renew as members before the meeting will be eligible to vote at the meeting.
Send note to become member with your check for $60 or $30 to Dr. Richard S. Marken, 10459 Holman Ave, Los Angeles CA 90024-6012

Please email lloydk@klinedinst.com AS SOON AS YOU DECIDE if you will attend such a smaller gathering physically, electronically or telephonicaly. We estimate the cost would be around $200 for physical attendance - in addition to travel and room costs.
Thank you in advance for your response.
Sincerely,
CSG Board of Directors
