The Ninth 93 Institute will be held July 29 through August 3, 2007 in Storrs, Connecticut.

This is a 5 day residential program that is educational, builds the skills needed to grow the union, has great instuctors, and will have you come away with 20 new friends and having had some fun too! What more could you ask for?

Wether you just want to make the union stronger by volunteering or go on to work in this field this week will be the first step in the right direction. Need an application? Visit the 93 Web Site. Have some questions? Call George Embelton at (617) 367-3686.

"Graduates" from past Institutes have gone on to become Council Executive Board Members, run for office, joined the leadership of other organizations, become ASIA Trainers & Volunteer Member Organizers and many more things. Some are now working as Staff Representatives and Organizers for Council 93.

As a proud " graduate" of the very first Institute I can tell you it was all worth it and I have seen it become better and better with folks coming away excited, with renewed energy, and ready to move this union on.

If someone were to ask me "What was the best thing Tony Caso ever did as Director Council 93 ?" without a doubt my response would be " To establish the 93 Institute!".
