Welcome to the Case CFA site!

A quick intro:
    Welcome to the new site for the Case Western Reserve University chapter of the Campus Freethought Alliance.  First off I would like to ask everyone to take a moment and register a user account.  By registering you will gain the ability to post to the forums, participate in polls, comment on stories and blogs, as well as start your own blog.  Once registered it would be much appreciated if you will report any bugs/errors you find in the site here, as well as any suggestions here.  If you prefer to not create an account but would still like to send a suggestion or bug report just send us an email.  

Now onto more about the site and what it has to offer:
    Normally this is where I, as well as others will be posting news and stories about topics in skepticism, freethought, and atheism.  In fact anyone can submit material to be added here by sending their article to cwrucfa.admin@gmail.com.  After your article has been reviewed and edited we will post it here.  General guidelines will be coming soon in the FAQ page.  Besides the main page we also offer a links page with links to freethought and atheist websites and podcasts.  These sites and podcasts may not represent the exact views of our organization but are entertaining, thought provoking, and worth a look.  We also have a page outlining our most current upcoming event as well as final thoughts about past events.  The events page has a corresponding forum here.  Speaking of which, our forum provides a place to discuss topics with others, instead of clogging the comment areas with arguments.  We hope to keep the discussions relatively civil except for, of course, the unmoderated forum where everything(sans spamming) goes.  Finally we come to our blogs page where any registered user can post articles about whatever they want, instead of having to go though the submission process for the main page.  Well thats about all we have for now.  Feel free to create an account, poke around and make yourself at home.

And now some technical stuff:
    First of all, this site was checked to work properly with Mozilla Firefox 2 on a 1024 X 768 monitor.  Consider these the minimum requirements for viewing this site at its full potential.  With anything less than this I cannot guarantee that it will display correctly.  I have also viewed this site with Safari 3 beta, Opera 9.5 beta, and Internet Explorer 7, all of which appeared to work.  If you are using Internet Explorer 6 I can almost guarantee you will have problems viewing this site correctly.  In this case I would highly recommend following the link on the right to get Firefox, or upgrade to IE7 if you feel that you must have internet explorer.    
    Second, the site management system we are using allows for RSS syndication.  Currently you can subscribe to this page as well as the blog page.  The links can be found in the FAQ page but I would suggest using the feed indicator in the address bar of your browser.  

ATTN:  
    If you registered an account before 1-5-2007 then you will have to re-register because of some administrative requirements.
