MINUTES

11/10/99

 

The Web Warlock resigned his position shortly

after the last committee meeting. It was agreed by the rest of the committee

in the next few days that La Presidenta should (at least for the moment)

take over the website, and the committee carry on with the remaining 5

members.

Before the meeting began, the committee was reminded

by the Secretary of the need to fill in the membership book correctly when

taking money from people (especially on the door at WUS). Over the holiday

several sets of details taken were inadequate and many new members had

not signed it.

The meeting was started at 2050 BST with only

La Presidenta absent (due to illness).

 

1. Brumfest ’99 (24/11/99).

It was decided to promote/publicise the event

heavily in the coming weeks. Iain is to produce/copy some flyers and Jinx

is to duplicate the receipts. The receipts will then be sold and the actual

tickets ordered in bulk at a later date. The Secretary is to find out when

the deadline is. It was proposed to organise and pay for a coach to the

event:

Abstentions: 0

 

2. Brunel Rocksoc coming to a WUS.

Further to last week’s discussions, it was revealed

that Brunel Rocksoc planned to bring far more people than we could cope

with. As well as the limit of the capacity of the Q-Club, a suitable place

to put them afterwards was a big problem. It was proposed to tell

them that we are sorry but they can only bring 30 people and if they are

not happy then we will have to have a rethink:

Against:

0

Abstentions: 0

The membership is to be appealed to for crash

space.

 

3. Buying drinks for freshers at the FTOTM.

There were a small number of complaints from the

membership after Rocksoc money was used to buy drinks for new members last

Thursday. The Treasurer reported that a loss of approximately £2

occurred. All present agreed that it had been a reasonable success.

 

4. Website.

Since the new webmistress was not present this

item was postponed until the following week, although the WUS Officer reported

that the university societies page now has a link to our site.

There was a short discussion (involving John Sullivan)

of the phrase "to be damerelled".

 

5. Accounts.

The WUS Officer informed us that the university

requires all registered societies to submit a yearly set of accounts in

the near future. However, because we have been registered for less than

a year, we have been given the choice of either submitting 2 months worth

now, or waiting until next year and submitting 14 months worth. It was

agreed that it would be good practice and helpful to the next committee

if the Treasurer did and submitted them this time round.

 

6. AOB.

The Secretary is to obtain some more carbon paper.

 

The meeting was closed at 2103.
