Meeting Minutes
October 12, 1999
6:00 PM
HUB (Husky Union Building) 304F

Facilitator: Stephanie Richardson
Note Taker: Hannah Tang
GSTC Advisors: None
Present: Leanne Gilly, Katy Sible, Katie Watt, Megan Davis, Jessica Tang

Finances: There is currently $8 in the account (a donation from Leanne). There is a concern that Washington Mutual (where our account is located will charge us an $8 service fee. We will need to start collecting dues (set at $5 this year) soon.
ACTIONS: Leanne will talk to the bank about the service fee.
Fundraising: We are considering Jessica's candygram for the dorms. We still have to get the approval of the RD's (Resident Directors), which Jessica is working on. To promote and sell the candygrams, we are considering having a table at McMahon (on Mondays) and Haggett (on Fridays), as well as another table at Terry/Lander during dinner. Stephanie suggested we have different types of cards, with the residents being able to choose. The cards will be on 1/4 size paper, and we will vote on the final designs on the Jan 11 meeting. Advertising in the dorms will begin on Monday, Jan 3.
ACTIONS: Megan has volunteered to make some sample cards for us to look at (she has PrintShop Pro). Hannah will look into the legal issues around getting candy donated and acknowledging donations on the card by asking Angelina.
Constitutional Discussion - Dues: There was some discussion regarding the dues. It is going to be kept at $5 this year, but it has been requested that the set amount in the constitution be removed, which will provide more flexibility.
Future Meetings: Our November meeting will be held in McCarty on the 9th, from 5-7 PM. Each attendee should bring about $5 for the pizza cost. An IMA night on Friday, Nov 13 was proposed, which would include roller-skating and archery.
We will have Secret Santa's for our December meeting, which will be a fun way to relax from finals stress.
CONCLUSIONS: Our next meetings will be November 9th and December 7.
ACTION: Megan will get pizzas for the November meeting (one meat combination, and the other a vegetarian)
SAO Activity Fair: We got the email of one interested member, and passed information to several others. Leanne and Jessica also gave out information about Campus GS to a graduate student in Social Work, who was looking for service projects.
Website: Hannah has put together a temporary website so that we have something to get information out. We are hoping Danielle will be able to put something permanent up.
Announcements: There is a leaders' meeting for the local service unit on October 18, at 7 PM. Today's edition of the UW Daily has a (humorously derogatory) announcement of today's meetings. It did not, however, bring in any interested new members. =)

Meeting adjourned at 7:25 PM
