For this week’s #sasearch chat, we’re going to try something different. For a couple of reasons, it’s been hard to get a bunch of fresh ideas for each week’s chat and this week, Laura McGivern, my co-moderator (and the organizational powerhouse that makes tweets go out each week), has jury duty. I am knee-deep in writing resumes and coaching clients, as well as participating in a mentor coaching group each week as I work toward earning my ACC Credential with the International Coach Federation.

So it’s been a busy couple of weeks, and we know that many who would otherwise participate in the chat are going on Spring Break, going to a placement conference, or both. So we decided to keep it simple.

This Wednesday, from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm ET, tweet out your favorite inspirational quote, article, video, or Pinterest pin with the hashtag #sasearch. I will go in and re-pin as many of these as possible to my Pinboard titled “Inspiration for Student Affairs Professionals.” And if you are a Pinterest nut, like I am becoming, and would like to help co-moderate this Pinboard, let me know and I will add you. Melissa Judy, my content development intern, is also adding items to the board. I think this could be a fun way to share inspiration and also to use this Pinterest addiction I am building into something good.

So please join the #sasearch #pinchat this Wednesday and let’s get people all inspired and stuff. Woo-Hoo!
