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
