Meeting Agenda:

October 2017:

Welcome to our October Meeting!

Whitney introduced herself, officers, and advisors. She reminded members to check the club website for meeting minutes, especially if members missed important information addressed in September meeting. She also told members that the fastest form of communication is to contact officers via their personal emails, but emailing the club email is also an option. Members were reminded that they are members for a year, which requires at least 3 on-campus and 3-offcampus volunteer hours each semester. Membership must be renewed after one academic school year if the member maintains a good GPA.
