Are you working too hard to stay organized and communicate effectively within your Habitat group? Well, there’s an app for that! Join Mike Resman, the president of the University of Minnesota campus chapter, for an interactive and informative discussion on the different (free!) technologies that your group could be using today. This session will highlight the various web applications that the University of Minnesota campus chapter is currently using and how they have helped the chapter to grow exponentially to over 200 paid members and an executive board of 15 officers. You’ll see some familiar faces, as well as discovering some pretty awesome tools you’ve probably never heard of before.
