Networking within a chapter is very very very important! Life is busy for everyone; rarely do you hear someone say, “I have all the time in the world.” You are more likely to hear, “I don’t have enough time!” However, if you do not take the time to stop and develop a relationship with your fellow education professionals, you are going to graduate with a support system of one, and that one is you alone. Many chapters add a social time to their monthly meetings. They might, for example, have an ice breaker at the beginning of the meeting or offer cookies and ice cream after the meeting. It does not have to be extraordinary, but having something to nurture a support system is not a waste of time.
