Where obscure nerd jokes receive groans, not slaps.

April 12, 2009

I. Pi++ Day

A.) Things we need from you CIFers:

-We need volunteers to work the event (set up, running it, clean up).

-We need people to put up fliers.

-We need to make signs for the tables

-We need to purge out the common fridge to make space for frozen pies and whipped cream pies.

-We need people to bake the frozen pies on Monday, April 13th, 2009.

II. Bryan: By the end of Monday (April 13th, 2009), the CIF lab will be open. Users should register online.

III. Volunteers are needed to clean out the old server rack cage, so that a new one can be installed. This will be done near the end of the year during finals week.

IV. CIFnic

A.) Has been officially moved to April 24th, 2009 (the day before D-Day)

B.) Times will be from 2:00PM until whenever it is going to end.

C.) We will be cooking our own food. So we need to make a list of grill foods (hot dogs, burgers, condiments, etc.)

D.) Please tell alumni about this in advance.

April 5th, 2009

I. Our current balance is $310.96

II. The card reader has been installed (yay!) However only Isaac and Bryan can enter the lab because the reader has not been programmed yet to let anyone else in. Bryan or Isaac needs a USB hub to do this.

III. Dan and Jay are going to talk to Burt on Monday April 6th, 2009 about Pi +1 Day and the spontaneous kitchen mess problem.

IV. CIFnic

-We have decided to move it to a later date so that it is not on D-Day, probably the weekend after. 

-We also need to contact and tell the CIF alumni when CIFnic is when we decide on the official date, so that they know in advance to come and visit us then.

V.  Pi +1 Day

-Jay has made a budget for it, it was shown to Tower's Hall Council. They approved $75 to be funded to us. This is very good news.

-We need to get a banner up by Tuesday April 7th, 2009. We also need fliers designed, printed, copied, and posted all around campus by Thursday April 9th. 

-John Brimlow is interested in designing the banner and fliers.

-ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN HELPING SHOULD EMAIL THE BOARD, OR APPROACH ONE OF US...WE WILL TALK, WE WILL SEE WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, AND WE WILL ACCOMMODATE IT.

-Jay will talk to CLC about receiving funds and assistance.

-CSH is interested in Pi +1 day.

I. Upcoming Events (correct me if I am wrong here)

A. Cifover and the Dragon Egg hunt will both occur on April 11th, look for Facebook groups

B. CSH (from RIT) wants us to participate in a capture the disk game and garbage plates afterwards this Friday April 3rd, 2009.

C. CIFnic has been decided for April 25th 2009, a Saturday when most people should be available.
-CSH wants to co-host this event, which will most likely happen
-CSH wants to cook the food using the grills at GVP....I (Jay) personally think this is a good idea than getting Dino BBQ since the only thing we have gotten is alot of chicken and potatoes, which ended up as a huge pile of leftovers sitting in the common fridge for the first half of the fall semester...plus, having chicken as the only meat is seriously boring.
-It has been said that CIF used to have picnics with CSH until we accidentally (or on purpose) burned off the eyebrows of a CSH member, and they ran away in horror never to hang out with us until now
-so before CIFnic with CSH occurs, lets sharpen up our grillin' skills with practice...in addition, we should get competent people who know how to light a grill in less than an hour (b/c there is another story that it took CIF members over and hour to light a grill...come on)

II. Reimbursement news from Isaac

-So Isaac told us that we might get back $50 from the $100 we gave to ResLife to install a new card reader. The reason why we were charged $100 was because two technicians were going to be installing the card reader, but only one is now going to work on it...so the labor fee has been decreased. Isaac will try to supervise the installation.

III. Results from our Expectations for Excellence review

A. Towers Council thought our presentation was great and we might get accredited for next year...keep up the good work CIF.

IV. Receivers of the fall 2009 Meal Plan exemptions:

-Votes for approving amendment: 18 (17 is about 2/3 of 25 rounded up)

-Thus Andrew and Jason Zhu are officially CIF members.

II. Housing Meeting Comments:

 -Nice Job guys, the housing meeting wasn't as chaotic as last spring semester's. Almost everyone got what they wanted.
