Board Minutes for March 19th, 2010

Pi++ Day: Dan is looking into ice cream cake and pie prices from the Corner Store. Currently we have the following reserved: Wilson Commons porch, a flex machine, and a banner for the Pit for 5 days before and including the day of the event (April 14, 2-7pm). We will be bringing our own tables and chairs (to cut down on expenses). Tentatively we'll use styrofoam plates for whipped cream pies to be thrown at professors. Half of the proceeds will be donated to the Golisano Children's Hospital (a great local charity). Next Game Night: The next game night will be our fun fancy dress-up night. If you'd prefer to just dress up as something else or just goofy if you don't have dress clothes to wear, that is perfectly acceptable. We're planning on this game night taking place on April 3 — however, this is the day before Easter. If you have a conflict with this Saturday night, please contact someone on Board. If there are a notable number of conflicts we'll move the event to April 10, a week later. CIFnic: This event will be taking place on Sunday April 25. We realize this is the day following D-Day, but this is the best weekend to have our alumni here for this alumni event. We will be buying and serving burgers, hot dogs, Italian sausage, and peppers and onions. CIF has silverware from previous events, but we will need to purchase plates, cups, napkins, soda and chips (some at the Corner Store). For other side dishes, we are having a pass-a-dish setup. We'll be reminding members of this in the coming weeks. Please remember that this is a mandatory event unless you actually have a legitimate conflict. Card Reader: The card reader was taken over Spring Break.  The lab will have a few weeks to a month of downtime. Only come to see John for access if you need something critically important and CIF-related — this does not mean just printing out a paper. Go to ITS for the next couple of weeks please. Open House: We did not order pizza for this event.  Instead, we supplemented the program with more chips and soda. Expectations for Excellence: This presentation is due on Monday and will be formally presented on Thursday.
