Slack has public and private “channels” (or chatrooms) for information exchange and conversation. If you have a question, ask it on a channel dedicated to that topic. If you can answer a question in your area of expertise, please do so!

Everyone will have access to all the channels. 

• #introductions — Say hello and introduce yourself to the Gunn Slack community.
• #professional networking — Join general discussions about career paths and opportunities. Do you have a job posting or internship opportunity to share? Would you like to mentor someone new to your field? Are you looking to network as you consider a new job or career path? 
• #events — You can find Gunn-sponsored events here. Or, you can invite others to your own Gunn Alumni meet-ups/gatherings. 
• Communicating one-on-one and with small groups

In Slack, you can also exchange messages between individuals or groups. Direct messages (DMs) are best used as an alternative to casual emails, where quick conversation is the objective.

Slack has default notifications to help keep you informed, including desktop, mobile, and email notifications. You can configure these notifications to ensure you receive information when and how you want it.
