Dear Wiggies,
As part of WiGS' 25th anniversary celebrations, the current committee is in the process of putting together a multi-media retrospective - a kind of Wandzeitung - documenting the rich history of WiGS over the last 25 years. This retrospective will be displayed at the forthcoming WiGS conference in Sheffield, which takes place on 8-9 November 2013.
To start with, I would like to produce a record of committee representatives dating from WiGS' inception in 1988 to today, including information on, for example, 'where they are now'. Other useful information might include details of conferences and their themes, along with the year they took place and location. Any photographs of meetings and conferences would be excellent, as would any posters/newsletters etc. that pre-date the website's collating capacities (i.e. 1999). Anecdotes, tales of significant events or individual memories would also be very welcome.
I would be immensely grateful if members would get in touch with any information they might have concerning the points mentioned above. Feel free to contact me by email with anything you think might be suitable:

Many thanks and I hope to hear from you soon,
Emily Spiers
Postgraduate Representative, WiGS
