A Greener Eph: Names are important
TNG is now officially Thursday Night Grassroots. After a brainstorming session, the co-chairs talked about what we need in a name.
We need something that is not off-putting, or assigns us some automatic identity. But we also need something that has some description of what we do - grassroots activism. Its cumbersome to recruit new members or make connections with the greater community when we have to explain who we are and why we have such a unique name. On the other hand, TNG is a strong identity on campus already, and we definitely didn't want to change that.
Thus, we arrive at Thursday Night Grassroots. Comments are welcome, but it looks like the name will slowly come into usage. Unfortunately, I can't change the name of the facebook group without having to create a new one. That might be around for a while.
