| What's New? The STAR Program Once again, the procedure for selecting SSOs has changed. We will now be choosing SSOs specific to each area within each area. Several candidates have already been presented and have attended the Leadership Workshop. Leslie, J. R. and Mandi (this year's Area SSO) will be working with them to get them up to speed on SSO functions and policies. We feel it is important that students participate in the planning of area activities, especially Area Conference. OEdTA is trying out a new program this year called the STAR (Student Area Representative) Program. This is a program that will serve as an educational and training procedure for future SSOs. J. R., Leslie and Mandi will have a meeting with the STARs on November 4, 2004, and they will help in the planning of the North Area Conference. We are asking that each school sponsor recommend one or two students from his or her troupe to serve as STARs. These should be responsible students who show leadership qualities. Please send the contact information for these students to Leslie at sappleslie@aol.com.
