AGM, Membership categories, and Halloween

10/21/2014

This post we have a couple things to discuss: a party (yay!) and how we are going to resolve our SRC issues (doubleyay!).

Membership Categories

As a result of communication between Ray and the SRC (i.e. he asked them what they actually wanted), we have received a clear answer regarding what they would be happy with. Pending confirmation at the AGM, this is what would happen:

Three classes of members would exist. The three classes are as follows:
1) Student Members, with full voting rights, forming no less than 80% of the membership

2) Non-Student Members, with full voting rights, forming no more than 20% of the membership

3) Friends of GUGS, defined as non-student honorary members, with no voting rights.

The benefit of this is simple: we can register all our non-students as members, giving them cards and whatnot, but fulfill the SRCs criteria by only allowing a certain number of them to possess voting rights. I suspect that most people value their ability to roll dice higher than their ability to vote, so this works well for us by allowing us to have our student cake and eat our (non-)student cake.

Halloween

Don't forget that this Saturday is our Halloween party! Check out the Facebook page for more details, and prepare yourself for some spooky funtimes!

AGM

The committee hereby gives notice that the AGM will be held on the 4th of November. If you are planning on running for a position, please do!

A blast from the past...

Finally, those who are despairing over the modern society's ability to get itself into trouble might enjoy a look at this letter, written to the then-president in 2001, which reads amazingly closely to the problems that have affected the society in recent years. Not just our generation that has problems!
