Minutes

1. CQC happenings

• A survey will be distributed to the robotics student body within the next couple of weeks. Results will be presented to the program committee at it's next meeting.

2. XBox & the lounge

• Security and increased lounge traffic (and the resulting decrease in available facilities) are the two biggest concerns.
• Traffic may be mitigated due to the relatively remote location of our lounge.
• The XBox can be installed in the lounge conditional upon increased security (i.e. a non-NSH common key).
• It would be good if the RI lounge and the CSD lounge were on the same key.

3. RI Picnic

• Saturdays are much preferred over Fridays (consider spouses/ significant

others).

• The space 2yrs ago was very good. A consensus was that last years space was to "fragmented" to be a good party location. An indoor (preferably air-conditioned) space would be nice to have.
• Near by locations should be given preference over distant ones.
• The Sandcastle site would likely be a good site.

4. Post Seminar Events will be hosted by:

• January 25- 4th years
• February 15- 3rd years
• March 22 or 29- 2nd years
• April 26th -1st years

5. RI Open House

• First years will be organizing this.

6. Black Friday Event

• This will be organized by the 4th years.

7. 1st Year Move

• General consensus was that Cheryl's plan was reasonable and that student input would be a great idea.

Next Meeting

The next meeting data will be February 15.
