I had a look at the site and ,must admit, I wasn't too clear what exactly the mens programme involved. However, it appeared promising and hopefully may develop into a fully fledged GENUINE (ie NOT feminist) Mens Studies Course.
( By the way, Glenn has started round 5 of his campaign. I think this deserves a mention on mensactivism).

I noticed that the site has a picture of Warren Farrell giving a speech at the college. Seems promising...

Yes, that picture caught my eye as well. If it does evolve into a true Mens Studies course, it would be (to the best of my knowledge) the first of such courses to exist and it's value to the mens movement would be incalculable.

And it gives a link to NCFM, the Men's Issues Page and other legitimate men's issues sites. That's a good sign.

In a way, it doesn't much matter what you do when you meet. The simple fact that your org exists and the charter describes your org as something like embracing pro-masculine values, TRUE gender equality, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera... THAT wil eventually get their attention.
However, a little bit of activism along the way would help. You might first start with just a little education about things like family court and what REALLY happens to a man's rights when he becomes a father and/or a husband, or domestic violence. This, along with the KEY issue of recruiting should be your first considerations.
Good luck!!

Write to the guys at Pierce, they responded immediately to us, and I think would be willing to help you get started.

Today women are able to have professional organizations, but such groups of men are seen as discriminatory.
A couple of weeks ago I had a flaming feminist iterupt me to correct me and tell me that men aren't discriminated against in our society, but before she got to the power and control b.s. I unloaded on her and told her to stop lying, men are discriminated against in our society egregiously by the hate agenda of radical feminism. I went on to explain how through various statistics that we have had on this page before. She was shocked!
There are many areas where MEN organizations and MEN associations are needed. There are Women's Commissions, Women's Studies Programs, Women's Centers, Offices of Women's Health, Domestic Violence Shelters, Women's Legislative Caucuses in Government, etc., etc., etc.
Here is a T-shirt covering just one of the areas above:
SOCIETAL POLICIES (link)
I would like to graphically illustrate all the areas where men need mentoring, nurturing, support, encouragement, education, etc. to be equal under law, and social privilege with women. All things in due time.
Sincerely, Ray

20 female. . .5 male
Well I've been noticing that trend also. . .scholarships, honor role, headmaster's list, Dean's lists etc.
Just read in our local paper of Hillsdale Michigan. . .Honor role (seventh through 12) 20 female. . .9 male. Headmasters list (seventh through 12) 17 female. . .4 male.
How bout your local school's?
Keep hearing how our schools are still failing our girls. . .just don't know how? Seems to me we have been failing our sons. . .overwhelmingly!
Such as the law of unintended consequences. . .my ass!
I would really like to see what the real status of men/boys are in this country. . .but how would anyone know?
Does anyone know?

"Keep hearing how our schools are still failing our girls. . .just don't know how? Seems to me we have been failing our sons. . .overwhelmingly!"
I saw an article about how well females were doing at our local college in a large number of areas, and another article in a local paper about the same but both then went on to conclude by bemoaning the fact that females still do not have parity in Science and Engineering. Clearly the authors only cared about female academic achievement as it made no mention of the need for males to have parity in the large number of areas where females exceed parity. Where the heck is Title IX in those areas. What a bunch of sexist bigots run our schools today. They spout only the offical radical feminist party line propaganda and freely bash all men in the process. Schools have become nothing more than hotbeds of sexist hostility against men. I need to work on some T-shirts in this area.

"I would really like to see what the real status of men/boys are in this country." Their status is akin to that of Negroes prior to the Civil War or Jews in Nazi Germany.
