The Geography Faculty Development Alliance

GFDA ListServ

What is the GFDA list?
The GFDA list serves as a forum for discussion among early career geography faculty and for sharing information and ideas. For it to be effective, the list needs members to contribute relevant messages to the list. So, if you are not already a member, please read on and sign up. If you are already a member, please share your world with us.

What is the GFDA list for?
The list is open to anyone who wishes to help bring together a cooperative community of geographers interested in the issues of early career faculty. The exchange of information could include: relevant meetings, conferences and job opportunities; article synopses, book announcements and reviews; calls for papers; presentation of concise essays; and relevant cross-postings from other lists.

How does a listserv work?
A listserv allows its members to send messages to all other members of the list through a single email address. When you type in the 'To' box of an outgoing email message, the computer that controls the list will ensure that your message is sent to the list owner (joni palmer) who will then post it to all members. Belonging to the listserve also means that you, as a list member, receive all messages sent to be posted to the list.

Because this is a moderated listserve, Joni will screen out junk mail and spam, you will only receive messages relating to the GFDA and information that will be of interest to early career faculty.

How do I join?
To subscribe yourself to the GFDA list, address an email message to listproc@lists.Colorado.EDU with these contents (the <>s just mean 'put your stuff here' so don't include them):

How do I post messages?
After you've subscribed to the listserv, you may send messages to the list by emailing geogfacultyalliance@lists.Colorado.EDU. The listmistress cannot change your message in any way, only accept or reject it, so make sure your message is what you want to have sent out.

How do I get off the list?
