Starting A Chapter

The first order of business should be naming the chapter. I make a motion for the "Thomas B. Farrell Student Chapter of RSA (Northwestern University)."

Thomas Farrell, professor of communication studies at Northwestern University, died June 12 2006 at age 59 in Evanston. In 1976, Farrell became assistant professor of communication studies at Northwestern, eventually becoming a full professor in 1984. Notable is Farrell’s 1993 publication of Norms of Rhetorical Culture, chosen for the National Communication Association Winans-Wichelns award for book of the year in 1994.

Hey.

A banks is a financial institution that accepts deposits and channels those deposits into lending activities. Bank primarily provide financial services to customers while enriching investors. Government restrictions on financial activities by bank vary over time and location. Bank are important players in financial markets and offer services such as investment funds and loans. In some countries such as Germany, banks have historically owned major stakes in industrial corporations while in other countries such as the United States bank are prohibited from owning non-financial companies. In Japan, banks are usually the nexus of a cross-share holding entity known as the keiretsu. In France, bancassurance is prevalent, as most banks offer insurance services (and now real estate services) to their clients.

The level of government regulation of the banking industry varies widely, with countries such as Iceland, having relatively light regulation of the banking sector, and countries such as China having a wide variety of regulations but no systematic process that can be followed typical of a communist system.[url=http://projectcontrol.v3host.nl]CLICK HERE[/url]
