Emails come by the dozen (or the hundred) to your inbox every day. But how many of them do you actually read? Like the students you're trying to reach, you have multiple communication and media options -- and some are better than others at reaching their target audience. 

AACRAO strives to keep you informed of professional development opportunities and networked with your most relevant colleagues. We know you're busy, and email is not always the best avenue for receiving AACRAO updates.  That’s why we also using social media to communicate timely, interesting, and important information.
