    Hello colleagues,
    Is there a local INFORMS chapter for Chicago? It will be nice to connect with local community members.
    Some details will be helpful.

    Is there any region-based chapter for Oklahoma as well?

    Hi Himadri,

    There is no chapter in Oklahoma, but you could start one! Info on how to start it is here: Starting or Revitalizing a Chapter - INFORMS

    Hi Kathryn, 

    Thanks for your suggestion. That can be a great idea, as we have two really active student chapters in Oklahoma (University of Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State University). We can have an excellent collaboration to have this chapter in Oklahoma.

    Hello Prof. Ansari,
    Thanks for the message. I did check the link you shared for the local chapter. But I'm not being able to see the details on how to become member of the Chicago chapter.
    Can you kindly advise?
    thanks

    Hi Jayant,

    I believe you need to add that in your regular membership. Go to your membership portal and select "Add Communities/Journals"
