Social:
- Board considers possible dates for a follow up to the ASCIT Friday picnic on May 23, May 30, or June 6, but without a movie. The IHC requests that such a dinner be discussed with representatives from the IHC, Food committee, and House waiters before proceeding. Such a meeting will be held Monday, May 5, in the Coffeehouse at 10:30.
- Team Tech wants to collaborate with ASCIT on an event, possibly a sports barbecue in May. Team Tech has been funded by an MHF grant that will run out at the end of this academic year, so they might need to request funding. Board suggests they become a club.
Take a Professor to Lunch:
- Cathy, who supplements ASCIT’s funding for the program, want to minimize the requirements for students. She wants students to take advantage of applying for funding. She will draft a new form and finalize the details with Angela.
Club Funding: - The club funding meeting will take place on Sunday, May 11 (1:00-4:30). The appropriate forms will be posted on donut.
Meeting adjourned: 12:35±10 minutes
