Sid (look below) - Food/Room/Key/Signup, Barak - Woz - No food. - GM1 9/9 8-11 PM - GM 1 should be rescheduled, as it's our most flexible event. - Earliest sensible time is 9/20, 8PM. - That's rather late. GM 2 is 10/20. - - Flyer/facebook/announce, Julie - Food/Room/Key/Signup, Neil - Woz. - The fact that the GM is on the same day as Micron and Dropbox will probably lower GM attendnace. - Micron will have Woz. Dropbox is in Sibley. - The people we want attending GM are mostly people on southside (then also Foothill.) - So people attending Dropbox in Sibley then walking over to GM in Woz is less than we'd like - Idea: GM 1 will be rescheduled. - Full vote for reschedule to 9/20 (except Sid) - Issues with booking Sibley. - We should probably go in person in the future to ask about this because there's so much ambiguous stuff. - If we don't ask about our lack of a guard though, they might decline it right when we get the key, so we really should ask now. - Sibley is a clusterfuck. - - Vim workshop rescheduling - Our booking was canceled. - We can reschedule or just not do it. - Workshops in priority are: Unix, LaTeX, then lastly Vim. - Pinterest: 9/15. - @Barak for external event. - Misc: - Updating photo on csua website - Yes pls. - Take a picture tomorrow!!! - (optional photoshop sid??) - Yes photoshop Sid in (Sid votes yes!) - Update sponsors on our website. Section for sponsors this sem - Fall 2016 events - Update officer page - Old officers will be phased out on the first day of classes. - Update barak as pb on csua website - @Caleb - Signatory orientation - [http://lead.berkeley.edu/news/rso-registration/]{.underline} - At least two signatories must attend. Yitz will be one, Megan will be another. - Barak Caleb, Neil, Megan, Yitz got approved. - Feedback form, update officer board, door code, Yitz - Jobs mailing list, Julie - Send it out first week of school - Go through whatever blurbs we have and send it out! - jobs-mailing@csua??? Confirm pls. - Server/new computers/wipes - Email people @Megan - New computer part check should be on its way (y) - Discussion: - Officer involvement/points/retreat - We want more officer involvement. Because we're doing a lot more shit and we need to hold our officers to higher standards. - There's currently nothing to make an officer want to do something. - "Wow, we really can't get our officers to do anything!" - So we need a way to track officers so that well-performing officers will go on a trip. - Two-fold solution to the problem of officer responsibilities: - Incentivizing officer participation. - Punishing inaction by removing officership - Bare minimum to make an officer stay as an officer. - Hit a higher amount to go on the retreat. - 3/month point thing? - If you don't hit the minimum and have a legitimate reason, contact Neil. - Taking out trash (take a selfie of the trash you're taking out), helping unload/drive/anything for a Costco run, volunteering for an event, +1 point! - @Neil, update the point document and make it public to officers. - Curtain on door? Image of our club? - We're not allowed to. - We shouldn't be hiding what we're doing, actually. - Set up a banner so that when you look into the door, you can see exactly what we are! CSUA! - We don't want the people who just "look in and move on" - we want the people who "look in and actually try to see what we do" - People (officers) aren't paying attention to the door when they game. - Put up the upcoming events on the door. - @Julie: Keep them up to date - So now, we have flyers on the door and people see those first and not the computers first. - Solution = show that we're doing things besides gaming. - Digital signboard is ready to go! - Officer vote on Robert Chang? - Yes! - Satish Rao - Against the school, in support of the department. - Megan will meet with Satish - + Anyone who wants to go - Satish is asking for us to act on behalf of the department. - In previous semesters, we've given past alumni a lot of power. I.e. officership. - Rather unfair to not give them anything, even if they want to help. - Sure, not all alumni should be accepted as officers... - But maybe we should consider doing something for them. - The requirement of 3 points per month will cut out certain alumni that can't show up as much. - But perhaps if they manage to be able to do 3 points a month (and hold office hours and etc), they can stay as an officer. - Other solution: Only give Jeff the door code. No other alumni get it and he doesn't get other officer perks. - Another option: Invite him to join us on the retreat. - Some criteria for alumni being given access to the office. - Alumni Team! Or Hoser! Or something else!!! - Past members are upset about changes we're making. - We're literally re-building the CSUA. [Screen Shot 2016-08-21 at 6.40.12 PM.png] - @Megan: Contact Meraiki. They're not responding. - We need to book Dwinelle, bc career center isnt responding.
