minutes from 1st meeting

Hi Everyone and welcome to the Blog.

Meeting Minutes:

After much discussion we decided on 2 goals for the group.

Goal #1 is to raise money for the renting of the theater for the Spring Fling. Our goal is $1500. We will do this by contacting the Student Senate as well as other groups on campus who may wish to support this event.

We must prepare a detailed breakdown with facts, figures and talking points for our presentation to the senate. First step is to interview Skye regarding past Spring Flings.
(questions dealing with attendance, diversity, costs, student learning outcomes, etc.)

Goal #2 is to present a special scholarship which will go to a young person who currently is not eligible for the BOG but also receives minimal help from parents or guardians.

Committee members must develop a rubric for grading the applicants. (need, grades, age, comm. skills, etc). A plan to promote the scholarship should be devised as well as a detailed fund-raising plan to gain the money.

The idea was floated of a BBQ on campus. (steak sandwiches, hamburgers, etc.)

Would Pepsi donate drinks?

Finally the leadership book was discussed. We are leaning toward the "21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership" (256 pages) Available on Amazon for $2 plus shipping.
