ART MODELING

  • hosting a art modeling special on week 10 and the person that Freddy was talking to about hosting the class has a tutorial style class where they will basically teach people how to do the painting that they are doing, this will be done instead of the live model that was initially planned

  • the event will be ticketed and Freddy and Megan will advertise on social media

  • Jonah messaged amber from sexpressions about the modeling for the art social, but we decided not to go through with it because of issues with privacy and security

  • Amy suggested that the museum has some free / paid videos of nude models as an alternative if we want to go through with the nude modelling, but as of now, we are doing to do a sit and paint as suggested by Amy previously 

  • for now to do paint and sit that Amy suggested 


MEETINGS DURING THE TERM BREAK

  • the plan is currently no meetings will be held during the term break as everyone will need the time to rest and prepare for their exams

  • however, we will have one / two weeks before holiday ends so that everyone may give a brief of what they want to do the next term


MEETINGS MISC.

  • due to the TGM occurring on Tuesday, there will be no meeting on the upcoming Sunday

  • the last meeting of the term will be on Thursday, 18th of March at 6:30pm

  • the meeting will be to welcoming the new Postgraduate Vice-President, if people are unavailable to come, they should not feel pressured to do so and it will be a very informal and short meeting

 

TGM DETAILS

  • how motions will be run

  • there will be a for and against position 

  • the person who proposed the motion will speak about it first (1-2 mins)

  • then the host will ask if anyone would like to speak against the motion

  • if there is anyone against the motion, they have a few minutes to speak as well and there will be a debate

  • it should also be asked if there are any questions about the motions

  • after this has been concluded, there will be a poll for the motion on the zoom call itself that people will vote for (give maybe a minute for people to vote), the results can then be displayed after

  • issue of jointly held positions

  • question was posed if people should have to run together together to be eligible for a jointly held position or if we were going to award it in the event where there are many candidates who are competing for the role

  • for the sake of clarity as well as ease of conducting elections, jointly held positions will only be awarded where people explicitly run together
