was a fun social, the person who was running it was emerson

STATUS OF REACHING OUT TO LGBT / DIVERSITY COLLEGE REPS
fliss has just received their handover notes that morning so they did not have time to get a list yet
they will contact the reps within the next week and will try to make another group chat
decided that if fliss cannot get in contact with them someone else can help out as well
PLANS FOR SOCIALS
this week will be the netflix party for disclosure at 6pm on the 11th, Saturday
the details for the watch party are to be sent and advertised on facebook
plans to have socials once a week
next week’s social event is planned to be the east asian queer history talk and q&a
Freddy has also planned kahoot, jeopardy game, murder mystery, and other socials that can be spaced out during the summer
Freddy has also created a canva account that the exec can access (link was sent to the exec group chat) and they have uploaded posters to the account
any posts for events can now be uploaded to canva so everyone from the exec can access it
CAMPAIGNS COMMITTEE UPDATE
more people have now signed up for the committee
the post advertising the committee has been pinned to the top of the facebook page so more people can see it
plan is that the committee will start with ongoing campaigns, but if any members have suggestions for new projects they will also be working on that
WELFARE
currently, there are welfare wednesdays where welfare will post either encouraging posts or resources to help with isolation and covid
also compiling a bunch of charity and helplines
EAST AISAN QUEER HISTORY TALK UPDATES
k has replied to us and the plan currently is to post the talk on monday and have the q&a later in the week
this will act as the upcoming week’s social
to ask k about whether he would prefer having a recorded q&a like the lecture itself, a live q&a, or a written reply q&a
may have a time limit for the q&a, also should have moderation to prevent heckling
BOOK CLUB AND LIBRARY
tabled for next week as megan is not present
FLYERS FOR FRESHERS
would be helpful for the freshers
need to order and design them
fliss will order to flyers to their house
the previous leaflets had all the contacts and on the back had lgbt terminology, which could be nice to replicate
WELFARE HANDBOOK
welfare is aiming to create a welfare handbook about what they can provide and what they can’t
to be published to facebook
will contain what welfare can offer them and signposts to other resources for where they cannot provide assistance
FINANCE
training for scott has not occurred yet, therefore he does not have access to the finance accounts
however, we do still have leftovers from the previous year that we can use
