Please read it. We'll have discussion at chapter meeting and
probably an addtional legislation meeting. Sign up if you want
to go to National ($15, $17 for two meals). Sign up for Conclave,

problem. Talk to me.
Committee reports:

UMOC (Richard): Spithy checklist for UMOC:
o design drop poster tomorrow (Amy in charge)
o Jeff made cool posters. Help poster your dorm and IC. (remember
Physplant takes down posters on Thur nights/Fri morning and
Sat night/Sun morning.)

Tosci's, Museum shop, etc. for donations.]

New Business:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kate: Chapter Skills Weekend is this weekend! Printing is on Sat,
maybe on Sun. Silkscreening is both Sat and Sun. Treasury is
Sunday at 1pm (and maybe Sat. on demand.) CPR will be on
Nov 5 and another one on Nov 19. Need to talk to me NOW
to reserve a space for CPR. We'll also arrange with Jen'n to
do CPR instructors training. These trainings are not only for
pledges but for brothers also! Let me know if and when you
want to attend any of these.
PubDir (Charley): Make sure you completely fill out drop poster
forms when you sell drop poster and paints. Collect the buyer's
ID (preferably MIT) if they loan out anything. When they re-
turn stuff, count that they return all paint bottles and brushes
they have borrowed. Put payment and receipt in an envelope
and slide the whole thing into the strong box. Instructions of
selling drop poster is on the drop poster cabinet door. [ask
Charley for more]
SVP (Barbara): If you sign up "Yes" on a sign up sheet, please make
an effort to come. If you need to cancel, please try to do that 2
days before the project date so that the PC can anticipate the
number of people going. It's bad form to have an unexpected
small turnout at project.
Bridget (Food PC'ing skills):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o Find out how many people are eating. Allocate about 1/4 pound
of meat per person.
o Acoomodate people with Kosher/vegetarian/allergy concerns.
o Turkey is good cold cuts (over bologna and salami); most people
prefer wheat to white bread
o cheese and apples are convenient can be eaten by vegetarians too;
bring condiments
o for chapter weekend, make sure you have recipes (with time es-
timates, especially meat takes longer to cook than vege food).
Know about the camp's cooking facilities. Bring cooking/cleaning
supplies and eating utensils.
o For Pledge Article Meal, round up the number of people by 5 or
10 because there are usually random people coming.
o There are cookbooks in office.
o Watch you budget: $2 for breakfast, $3 for lunch, and $4 for
dinner, per person.
