Minutes

• WAN party
  • Andrew: IEEE sent us an email about hosting some kind of online lan party
  • Andrew: I was thinking we could do some kind of match-making service
  • Mike: Last time we talked about this we decided the gamers would be better off doing this themselves since they don't need us to set up networking equipment or buy pizza
  • Andrew: Alright, I can just reply and say that
• SDC
  • Charlie: The CAT guy wanted to push it back more, so we need to talk about the schedule before that can happen
  • Mike: We don't have anything else on Fridays for the rest of the year, it shouldn't be too much hassle to push it back
  • Charlie: Any objection to moving it back two weeks?
  • No
  • Charlie: Ok, I'll email him and tell him that
  • Charlie: We also need to figure out what's happening at the actual event. We should have another meeting between now and next Monday
  • Mike: We should update the times on the website also
• Papertrail
  • Hemant: I changed my mind, I think we should keep it now
  • Hemant: We should actually set it again up though
• Student org fair
  • Kelton: We just got an email about that. Do we want to sign up for this?
  • Mike: I think we probably should. What does it involve?
  • Kelton: We just have to schedule a zoom meeting with like a presentation
  • Mike: Do we still have the one we used last time?
  • Kelton: Yeah, but it might be weird to give the same presentation like 100 times
  • Mike: That's what org fairs are in person anyway
  • Mike: What day is it?
  • Kelton: 10/23 from 11:00 to 3:00
  • Mike: Ok, I don't have class that day so I can be there
  • Kelton: Me too. I'll fill out the registration form
• Wiki
  • Kelton: I was thinking recently that we don't offer anything that people who aren't server nerds would want
  • Kelton: I think now would be a good time to actually fill out the bookstack to supplement people not being able to hang out in the room and ask questions
  • Kelton: I know other colleges do a "disorientation" where they teach like stuff the U won't teach you that you probably should know
  • Andrew: We were talking about doing this last semester for 2041 right
  • Kelton: Yeah that would be a good one, since there's no textbook
  • Andrew: It might be hard to keep it in line with curriculum
  • Kelton: I think this should be a member exclusive thing, like people have to login with their x500 to see it
• MinneHack
  • Charlie: We need to at least get it scheduled
  • Mike: When is the great hall reserved for?
  • Charlie: 1/23
  • Cole: Wait did we actually reserve it? We didn't request SSF funds for it
  • Charlie: We got an email saying all events are cancelled
  • Kelton: That would go in the spring request anyway
  • Cole: Do we still need the physical great hall?
  • Mike: No, I just think the time we already had scheduled is still the best time to do it
  • Charlie: Oh we also need to reserve it for next year
  • Kelton: When do we usually reserve it?
  • Mike: We usually get an email telling us it's time
  • Charlie: Yeah, we got that in April
  • Mike: Ah
  • Mike: Ok when is the superbowl next year
  • Charlie: we should reserve it for 1/22/22
  • Mike: Ok it looks like we can't reserve stuff more than a year out
  • Mike: Guess we'll check back in in January
• Opaque
  • Hemant: I was just checking to see if there was any progress, since this is more important for online MinneHack
  • Kelton: I think there still hasn't been any work yet, people have been busy
