Open Issues
- Year End Party:
- 7 tickets have been sold so far (5 professors and 2 students)
- Darleen mentioned that some people did not realize this event is the year end party (possible reason for low ticket sales?)
- We will forfeit the $1000 deposit if the event is cancelled
- The $1000 can be taken from core (Blaine will get the receipt for DAC in order to get the money from core)
- Band has been booked for $400
- Possibilities:
- We can have a small event on a week day at DAC and the $1000 will cover it (if scaled down, we need to change day (Thursday?)
- Change location of event (Club Ilia?)
- Push event to September (can we transfer $1000 deposit)
- Dinner for union members and profs and students who have purchased tickets (smaller scale during week at DAC)
- DAC needs the payment for the confirmed number by Sunday
- If we cancel the event, we may lose credibility with the faculty and staff, but we don’t want an embarrassing event
- Final Decision: Take another week to see how ticket sales go, need 50/60 tickets sold to not cancel, cancel if not sold
- Next year: year end party after clothing order (confirmed funding)
