Committee Reports

President's Report

  • Having a full-time job is time consuming! Who would have thought? 😛
  • SOC sprung a last-minute only-announced-on-facebook meeting on us 😞. We basically found out by chance less than 12h before the meeting... James was kind enough to jump in at the last minute, but this quite disapoining on SOC's part.
  • We now need to basically get two things sorted:
    • Club finances before semester.
    • Preperation for O-day and the start of semester.
