[ale] Help creating a LUG at SPSU

[Jerald Sheets]

Why don't you just revive ALE-NW.  I don't work on the NW side any more, otherwise I'd take part.

I rather like the huge ALE umbrella with many separate groups under it, but ALE already has all that in place.  

I'm sure there's some leadership around here that can help you forward with that.

If we can prove that we are a member of a nationally recognized group, such as the ALE if it is recognized, and that group is a Non-Profit then we only have to do community service to get more funds and not find creative ways to have fund raisers.
