Frequently Asked Questions:

  • I just missed the deadline; can you edit the posted edition to include my item?

We can, but in almost every case we won’t. This is one of those things that are technically possible, but humanly very messy. Besides the newsletter, only documents approved by the UUMA Exec are posted to the UUMA website. To allow exceptions would be to expose our web person to a potentially continuous stream of requests.

  • What about emergency notices?

The Exec has the ability to send out such notices to the 90% of our members for whom we have email addresses – and you are welcome to make an inquiry in such situations. However, while I sympathize with folks who’ve missed a deadline (done it plenty myself), please know that event announcements that “didn’t come up until after the deadline” will generally not be regarded as qualifying emergencies.

  • If I’m happy reading it on line, do you have to send a print version too?

No, and we’ll be pleased to save the trees, printing and postage costs. Just hit the button on the Newsletter page of the website that says, “Skip the printed version.” Or send an email (be sure to include your full name) that says: “SKIP IT” to administrator @ uuma.org

  • Where do I send articles?

You can send articles for submission in the Newsletter to newsletter @ uuma.org
