Minutes

  • SDC
    • Charlie: There have been emails, it's happening this Friday, and we have a prize budget.
    • Cole: Is the sponsor going to be buying and shipping the prizes, or is that on us?
    • Charlie: The sponsor will be handling that.
    • Cole: Good, then we don't have to hanlde any money through the departments.
    • Charlie: We should have a prompt by Friday.
    • Charlie: How are we advertising?
    • Andrew: We could send out a newsletter, when was the last one?
    • Charlie: A while ago, we should be fine sending another.
    • Andrew: Let's draft one and send it out.
    • Charlie: I'll be doing other emails anyways and can do that later tonight.
  • MinneHack
    • Charlie: That is worryingly close in my opinion, and we haven't done anything yet.
    • Charlie: We need to make a final descision on format. We will probably use DevPost and have each prize as an opt-in option.
    • Kelton: So how will the prizes work? Smaller & jeoparody style prizes?
    • Charlie: Yeah, smaller prizes. We also need to talk to potential sponsors for MinneHack.
    • Cole: How do we want to do prompt/theme stuff?
    • Charlie: That won't be released until the event, so we have some leeway with that. We need to get registration setup soon though. Is Hemant here?
    • Hemant: Yes
    • Charlie: Someone who isn't me should get that set up.
    • Hemant: Oh, yes. Ok. Sure. Yeah. Ok. Yeah, ok. I'll do that. Ok.
    • Charlie: I'll be sending out sponsorship inquiry emails tomorrow.
    • Hemant: We just need a form like last year, right?
    • Charlie: Yes.
  • PaperTrail & NameCheap
    • Cole: Department alerted us that CC number has been changed, not our fault.
    • Kelton: I can contact Leean and get that taken care of.
