Meeting Notes 9/28/11

Wrestling ensues.
 
President’s report:
•         Meeting called at 7 PM
•         Last week was Club-Con, it was far more successful than David predicted. For his own event. Forum was packed, and David hopes for more collaborations in the future.

•         Filled out two surveys using the forum’s email address

  Hullaballoo raised
•         If problems with other forumites arise and you cannot handle it on your own, please speak to the eboard about it. We’re a public space and we want to be open, but if somebody becomes an issue, come to the eboard and he will address it.
•         Vest Paul is cosplaying as Colleen. The costume is pretty convincing; we saw Santos making out with him in the stacks. (This was before Vest Paul was in costume)

Basic bitch Librarian’s report:
We have books and stuff.
Nothing important happened this week. Important things will happen later.

Historian report:
•         We banned stuff once in the old place when some people just came down to play Magic. Magic was everywhere. We banned it for two months, and then things got better when the ban was lifted.
•         Historian’s project: A photo album, possibly in volumes. Rousing applause.
 
PR:

Business:
•         Jmax and David were reading the Press Magazine and somebody took it upon themselves to speak to the Press about the MLP’s on campus. Wait, it was Vince? Okay, he’s on eboard. Just make sure the eboard gives quotes. If it’s something regarding negative events on campus, if they come to us, just gently turn them away. Any attention is bad attention. We know nothing about things.
•         Clean!
