• Time: 4:05 - 4:20 p.m.
• Location: Fireplace Lounge in University Centre
• In attendance: Trevor Bekolay, Steve Coutts, Katie Hamilton, Katie Higham, Brian Latour, Kate, Marc

1. SiGEC meeting

• Trevor went to SiGEC meeting on March 4th
• UMSU will give a maximum of $1000 to a student group.
• Since UMSU already gave us $350 for the movie night, we could potentially get $650 for the trip.

2. Fundraising

• SiGEC people suggested bake sales as a fairly easy means of fundraising.
• Trevor thinks we should hold off on fundraising for this term as everyone is too busy right now.
• Katie Hamilton suggests that we should have a bake sale early next school year.
  • Everyone is in agreement over these points.
• Kate (grad student) suggests BBQs as a good fundraiser.
  • Everyone is intrigued by this idea.
  • Katie Hamilton says she will look into a space at Arthur Mauro Residence as a potential future location for this.

3. Executive position for Katie Hamilton

• Trevor proposes that we give Katie Hamilton the honourary executive position of “Member-at-large”, in light of all the hard work she has put into this group.
  • Vote taken.
    • Unanimous in favour.

4. Other business

• Kate & Marc and a couple other people are also planning on attending the American Atheists Conference.
• Cheques will be given next week to people who paid upfront for MASH supplies.
