Officers' reports:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SVP (Sam): We're having an open proect this Sunday at Caspar from
2 to 6 helping out with a turkey dinner.
MVP (Ann Marie): Activities midway went well. We had an open
meeting last week, and will have more on the 7th and 11th. I've
tentatively schedled pledge ceremonies for the 13th, the 18th,
and the 23rd (with Steak Fry).
FVP (Joe): I need PCs for couch destruction on the 17th and Steak
Fry on the 23rd. There are enough people this year that wemight
want to try to get Talbot instead of Next.
Treasurer (Oscar): I helped Oscar close his and Marissa's books.
Pay your debts.
AC (Ian): Minutes will be sent out. Really.
APOcEd (Nitin): not present(channeled by Laura) Me want content!
OM (Davidmac): The office got rearranged. It wasn't my fault.
PubDir (Lokie): We need to cut letters for the infinite corridor board
and buy paint.
Historian (Jake): Historian's Roll will happen if I get unsick.
Advisory Comm. Chair (Ellen): We need more advisors among
faculty. Tell Laura if you have ideas. There's a nanitonal con-
vention coming up. Registration deadline for legislative propos-
als is the end of the month. The convention is from December
27-30 in Philadelphia, with a registration fee of $50 for actives.
We have a layaway fund for subsidies. This is a particularly
special convention since it's the 75th anniversar. If we get 75
new Life Members by the convention, we get to throw Mims in
the pool. Life Membership prices are likely to be raised at the
convention, so now's a good time to buy one.
President (Carolyn): There's a conclave from November 3-6 at
Farmington this term. It's fun. You want to do it.
Committee reports:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BookEx (Yevgeniya): We need people to sign up for hours for the
rest of the week. Take-down is Friday at 5pm, so be there,
because we'll need lots of people.
CokeComm (Ian): I know nothing. But we'll probably be raising
tickmarks to 25 cents. Coke isn't paying for itself.
