Minutes

Call To Order:

Attendance:

• Brad Boyer
• Eric Gustafson
• David Henderson (Chief of Operations)
• Peter C. Jones (Communications Officer)
• Erinn Lineback (Grand Nagus)
• Justin Philbrook [Early Departure]
• Monica Prorok
• Seth Robison (First Officer)
• Ward Ryder
• Rich Spiwak
• Nate Sullivan
• Don Wood (CMO)

Minutes:

Committee Reports:

• The Wizard of Speed and Time was not shown due to a bad VCR and low attendance.
• Suggested that we try to buy a VCR.
• Seth taped Generation X, which he said was horrible.

• Re-recruited Nate!

• No Report.

• No Report (excuses: too busy, stress, work).

Officer's Reports:

• Other than correcting the First Officer's shortening of his title, No Report.

• Paid Ward the $4.00, so the current balance is $76.77.
• SABRC: Seth went to the workshop. A bunch of forms were obtained (and given to the Communications Officer for safe keeping), and instructions were given for how to fill out those forms. Two investment types: performer, and capital investment. The VCR wanted by the movie committee and the funds for registering a domain name would fall under the "capital investment" category.
  Time table for getting money: figure out what money you want; talk with SABRC advisor by March 8; submit forms by March 14; in October, the committee has the three-step approval process.
• Don suggested an alternate fund-raising source: external membership drive.
• Ward suggested we all chip in ~$15 (on monthly payments) for the VCR. Not many seemed to like that idea.
• Vote to attempt the committee route, while still pursuing alternate sources: 0 against, 1 abstaining, 11 for. [Communications Officer Note: The First Officer said "14 for", but there were only 12 there, and with the abstention, only 11 could have voted for it.]

• Announced the library, with instructions as per the on-line list:

• Wyckoff TV Room has been reserved for Tuesday nights at 9:00pm and Saturday nights at 10:30pm. Reservation form now in Communications Officer's storage.

• Not Present.
• First Officer announced mail: Asian Week advertisement.

Old Business:

• Road trip: dropped from the meeting until someone has something.
• CyberDesic: Jim Brazell has been unavailable, so nothing new.
• Erinn: Yahoo still has some links to outdated URLs. The Chief of Operations is working on getting those changed.
• Eric: Our URL on the Student Organizations Page needs to be updated as well.

New Business:

• Seth: National Public Radio will be having a radio-series of Return of the Jedi, with Ed Begley, Jr. as Han Solo and Ed Asner as Jabba the Hut. [Both voices, of course.]
• Erinn showed the classic Star Trek Barbie dolls picture!
• David:
  • Dr. Who movie: Some Tuesday in May; therefore, most likely it will not occur during our semester, so we cannot watch it together.
  • George Takei (Sulu in classic Star Trek) will be guest starring on Voyager late this season. (Whether as Sulu or not is unknown.)
  • Babylon 5: This Sunday night's episode (11:30pm) is supposed to be a really big story, good for current and new viewers. He will tape it for those who do not like its timeslot.
• Peter announced that he's running a mailing list for Sci-Fi/Fantasy author Stephen R. Lawhead.

Adjournment:
