About AIMS

The Association of Information Management Students (AIMS) is a student organization made up of graduate students actively pursuing a Masters of Science in Information Management at the University of Washington’s Information School.

The goals of AIMS are:

  • To provide official channels for communication between MSIM students, faculty, and administration of the Information School.
  • To promote the interests and serve as an advocate for MSIM students.
  • To provide opportunity for social, cultural, and professional activities.

Please feel free to leave any comments or questions, and to contact the AIMS officers about any ideas or concerns you may have – we welcome your feedback! We try to keep our posts, calendar, and replies up to date, but please be patient if there is any minor delay in responding.

We’re on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

You can join our open meetings in person or through Adobe Connect.

You can also email us, or you can write to us at

    Twitter Handle Request

    Posted on: September 25th, 2011

    One of the best things you can do for yourself during your time at the iSchool is connect with the other extremely talented folks around you.

    As Tech Officer of AIMS, I’m hoping to set up cohort-based Twitter lists, so you can follow a single list instead of having to find everyone’s handle on your own.

    If you’d like to have AIMS follow you and add your handle to a cohort list, add a comment to this post with your MSIM cohort and handle or send that info to mschmalz at uw.edu. For example, I’d respond:

    @effrenatus – Mid-Career 2012

    If you’re an alumnus, just put that as your cohort. I’ll be adding all alumni to a single list rather than tracking all old cohorts. I’ll probably be posting this in a number of different channels, but you only need to respond once to be included.

    Thanks!
