                          CoSN

     The Consortium for School Networking is a membership
organization formed to further development of, promote access to,
and encourage use of telecommunications in K-12 education.
     Members represent educational, institutional, and commercial
organizations with an interest in advancing the state of the art in all
aspects of educational telecomputing.  CoSN provides an
opportunity for those individuals and groups to benefit from the
resources and experience of all members.
     The Consortium offers an unparalleled opportunity to
participate in the evolution of telecommunications to serve the
needs of K-12 education

                       CoSN Goals

1. Equitable access to the National Information Infrastructure to
support education and systemic reform in all schools nationwide.

2. The development and distribution of networking information
resources for educators and students.

3. Instruction of network-based information resources.

                   CoSN Board Meetings

CoSN holds three or four "face-to-face" Board meetings per year.
Most meetings are held in conjunction with national education-
related conferences.  Board members cover their own travel costs
for meetings and expected to attend all meetings.  However,
classroom teachers and others that do not have access to
institutional funding may receive compensation for travel
expenses.

The CoSN Board maintains regular communication and conducts
appropriate business via electronic mail.

The term for serving on the CoSN Board is three years.
