Meeting Minutes 1/19/2010

• Improvements and goals for Chimes this semester include more efficient, organized, and formal meetings, creating a Chimes hosted service project, and better attendance numbers.
• Meetings are going to remain at the Groesbeck Room in the Manhattan Public Library at 7:00pm, every other Tuesday.
• Two of our officers are going to attend a Quest meeting on behalf of Chimes to promote our organization on Jan. 26th.
• T-shirts are in! If you have not paid or picked up your shirts yet, please contact Alan Winter to get your shirt before the next meeting. Members are required to wear their Chimes t-shirts on campus during the days of our meetings to help promote awareness of Chimes (and to make people jealous of our awesome sense of fashion).
• Our last opportunity to volunteer for the Bramlage clean-up fundraiser was Sat. Jan 23. Thanks to all of the volunteers for helping raise more scholarship money!
• Our January service project was the Mortar Board academic decathlon on the 22nd and 23rd. All of our help was greatly appreciated at the event.
• Selections for new Chimes members is coming up! E-mails will be sent out through a list serv to current sophomores who qualify to apply for Chimes on February 1st, 2010. All applications are due Feb. 24 at 4:00 pm in OSAS. In order to encourage eligible future juniors to apply, current Chimes members should place the fliers that were handed out last meeting in different buildings on campus. Personal e-mails will also be sent out by current members to eligible applicants starting Feb. 1st. (see selection timeline for more information, if you need a copy, contact Nicole Allen or Rebecca Martin)
• We are trying to set up a social event for February. All ideas should be sent to Kelby Polfer or Jessica Glaser.
• Officers need to make sure they have a binder/folder for their positions to be passed on to next year's new officers. Digital copies of documents are also good to have on a cd or flash drive.
