Tips on "How to effectively manage Google Groups:

  • When you are elevated to be a Manager of the Google Group:

    • You'll be able to pin & unpin posts to the top of the Google Group
      • Action > Display at the top | Don't display at the top
      • Please leave the 3 "evergreen" posts pinned at the top:
        • "Meeting Notes from INDUSTRY ADVISORY PANEL for CS Dept"
        • "detailed curricula for every CS & CNIT class"
        • "How-To Club" Wiki Project
          • once a link to this is added to the club website, then it can be unpinned from the Google Group (in process)
  • ...
  • If the Owners/Managers of the Google Group have given permission to "Edit Own Posts" (here's how to do that), then person who starts a Google Group thread can treat their initial post as a wiki, continuously updating (editing the subject line to include the settled meeting times, updating the content, etc).
