    • Uwanime and Panto are a no
    • We have yet to discuss if we are asking uwasca
    • Discussion of how much space and time a Uwasca presence would use, whether this could be a low-risk ingratiation of uwasca into the ICON clubs, what kind of activities they could possibly run
    • We will check with how the other clubs feel

Alistair, Josh: Be uncharitable

O-DAY [Friday 19/2/21]:

Alistair: Book Oday stall

  • Fresher guides
    • The fresher guide has issues and needs to be rewritten
    • What can we write now, and what will need to wait until closer to the date
    • We will need to evaluate what is worth keeping, chucking or adding
    • Discussion of fridge items being described
    • Discussion of committee members being listed

Alice: Check in with the freshers about the fresher guides

Taylor, Alice: Rewrite the fresher guide

  • Signup forms

    • An online signup form would be very convenient
    • We have to be careful about putting out a public QR code/form that people could scan for free, or submit multiple times
    • Having all records of signup go directly into a spreadsheet and nowhere else renders us vulnerable to error that ruins everything
    • Physical signup sheet problems are generally always due to gatekeeper error: signing incomplete or illegible forms, or (alarmingly often) not writing down whether it's been paid
    • A physical solution will need serious revision of the process to avoid errors
  • Taylor will have major commitments to SOC on o-day and may not be able to lend a hand at our stall

Taylor: Write an EXHAUSTIVE definition of procedure for signing up members on o-day

Fresher Welcome [Thursday 25/2/21 (Week 1)]:

  • The incredibly early freshers pose a serious problem that whoever is around to run the event will be too busy entertaining them to set up
  • This event is not normally rostered
  • Opening speech:
    • Taylor wants to prioritise making sure this speech gets made to as wide an audience as possible
    • Possibility of a double speech, several hours apart
  • Confirming funding model of gold coin for freshers and $5 for returning members
  • We may need to change the way we distribute pizza for covid reasons
    • Slowing down pizza distribution may make everything easier to keep track of

Alistair: Inform ICON about our plans for fresher welcome and AGM

Alice: Book the loft for the fresher welcome

AGM [Friday 1pm 26/2/21 (Week 1)]:

  • Alistair has booked!

Alistair: Fill out the AGM EMP

  • What's on the agenda?
    • Reports
    • Elections
      • We need a plan of attack to make elections happen quickly and smoothly
      • We should proceed with the meeting while OCM votes are being handled
      • We should open nominations for committee precisely 2 weeks in advance so there's not a massive waiting time
      • Standard question set?
    • Anything else?

Taylor: Have a big think about election procedure

  • We will need to ensure that we have a big data entry day so we can email out agm info to all the beautiful new signups

Club Carnival [Probably Tuesday Week 2]:

  • #NextCommittee'sProblem
  • But we still need to all the bookings and event setting up ourselves

PROSH [Probably]:

  • #NextCommittee'sProblem
  • We should get on top of it for next committee's benefit
  • We can act when they put out new info
  • Alice is officially in charge of Prosh

Room Update:

  • Broken light

    • No udpate
  • Alistair is keen to change up the rules

    • Contact tracing sheet is done pretty poorly
    • Blanket contact tracing for everyone who enters the room is easier and harder for people to argue, we do it anyway for events
    • Set up a sheet for the room where people record their name, student #, and time arrived
    • We can potentially put up a SafeWA QR code, not necessarily enforce it
    • Gatekeepers will receive detailed instructions, with limited patience for bullshit
    • Still do separate attendance lists for events

Alistair: Write up new clubroom rules and post them

  • Campaign whiteboard
    • Ambiguity of the purpose of the board and whether it counts as booking the room
    • Reminder to everyone that you can only have 6 people at the table. If you have more then please use the loft or the couch

Alice: Update the campaign whiteboard and post a reminder about its existence

Reimbursements:

Pending: - $349 to Jackie for a food run

Guild:

  • Tenancy Reallocations
    • Reallocations are getting redone! From scratch!
    • Applications open tomorrow!
    • A tenancy meeting will be happening to discuss the process next Tuesday, with one person per club
    • We will need to raise questions about maintenance
    • Taylor had a brief chat with Chloe about the state of the loft and they both want to tidy stuff up
    • We still want to push for the full list of reallocations to be made public
    • We have a month to complete our application

Alistair, Taylor: Communicate with uwanime about room allocations

Alistair, Taylor: Get impressions from the member base about room allocations
