Call To Order:

The meeting was called to order at 9:04pm by the Captain, Bob Schmanski.

Attendance was taken. In attendance were:

The minutes from the previous meeting were summarized and approved.

Movie Committee:

Ian Hojnicki is the new chairman. Seth Robison is a committee member.
The movie for this week will be Star Trek: Generations. It will be in the Heitz TV Lounge, at 3pm on Sunday. (Ian will try to reserve that, ASAP.)
Erinn asked if they had a VCR, or would have to rent one. Ian will use his own.

Multi-Sector Committee:

Nothing new from U. of Virginia or Rob Quinn at ISU.
A group forming at the U. of Texas, San Antonio, has asked for Psi Phi affiliation. Responded that we're in the process of preparing for multiple sectors.

Recruitment and Relations Committee:

Has been expanded to Recruitment and Relations Committee, i.e., dealing with Alumni members, and getting new members, but not caring about current members.

Chief of Operations:

www.psiphi.org (aka psiphi.psiphi.org) is now a registered and recognized domain name. Change any Psi Phi links to that. Seeing about getting mail to Psi Phi members through that (for example, mail to beblbrox@psiphi.org would be forwarded to Paul's preferred mailbox.
Some one needs to reserve the Heitz and Wyckoff TV Rooms. Ian will at least reserve the Heitz, since he's got to get it for this week's movie, anyway.
Erinn asked how necessary it was to reserve Wyckoff's TV Room, since we've had no problems in the past. In order to safeguard our use of the room, was the response.

Grand Nagus:

More dues have been paid.
The current balance is $93.77, a record.
Pay your dues, or at least arrange for payment.
The Captain asked about the budget. Unless we find something to budget for, we don't really need one.

Communications Officer:

After you've paid your dues (or arranged therefore), you need to see him to sign the Psi Phi Log.
If you ever arrive late, you need to see him to make sure you're counted in attendance.
The Captain informed him that he needs to update SAO with the new officers and Constitution. David found out that the Constitution needs to be signed by the senior officers, before being turned in.

First Officer:

Captain:

SAO Keys: There was no order in Work Control for our permanent keys (which go to Captain Bob Schmanski and Grand Nagus Erinn Lineback), so that's now been submitted. They should be ready in a few days. (It was clarified that they are keys for our Sisson 437 office, shared with Habitat for Humanity and Hawaiian Club.) The senior officers may all check out a key from the Student Center Info Booth.
David announced that we've got a mailbox in SAO again.

T-Shirts: If you have any design ideas, bring them.
As an alternative to T-Shirts, how about pins? Too expensive. One guest present has a button maker, if we wanted buttons.
Meeting location: We have this room (Student Center Meeting Room 6) reserved for 9:30pm for the next two weeks. We'll try getting in as close to 9:00pm as possible, though, for our meetings.
David brought up the speaker we had been contacted about co-sponsoring. Since the Captain has heard nothing about him, since, it probably will not happen.

Justin and Ward asked how to join a committee. See the First Officer. (The Communications Officer pointed out that you also had to be an active member.)
David's New Business:
- Sisson Office has no Audix, but one of our roommate-groups might have an answering machine, or we might be able to get together on one.
- #PsiPhi IRC Channel: any interest? (Almost no one knew what IRC was. Apparently not much interest.)
- Generations, the full, uncut edition, should be coming out (on video) around Christmas. Cut scenes include atmospheric skydiving and a torture scene.
- Dr. Who movies on Fox: plans for 2-6 2hr movie-of-the-week. Confirmed by Jean-Mark Lofficier, someone integral in the Fox-BBC business negotiations.
Paul Mulka is a member of the Science-Fiction Book Club. He gets two free books if he can get a friend to enroll. Initial offer: 6 books for $1, an seventh for about $5, and a 4 book requirement over the next two years (at 30-70% off the regular hard-cover price).

The meeting was adjourned at 9:26pm.
