Minutes from
January 23, 2007, SIFE Meeting
Things covered in the January
23, 2007, SIFE meeting:
Finance 101 with
Serbia:
We have finally gotten in
touch with Boza and we are tentatively planning on setting
up a Skype conversation with them sometime in February! As
soon as we know more, we will pass it along! If you are
interested in taking part of the conversation, let us know
so we have an idea of who wants to take part in this! It
should be a lot of fun!
Career
Fair:
We have gotten all of the
flyers printed and they will be sent within the week to all
local businesses to as if they would be interested in
participating in our Career Fair. We have decided to have
two mini sessions as opposed to the four that we had
originally planned. On February 20th from 12-1:30
and from 5:15-6:15 we will be having a resume building
session in the first floor lobby area. During the week of
February 12-16th we are asking for SIFE members
to go to all of the business classes if at all possible to
encourage students to attend the Career Fair. If you are
interested in speaking to classes, please contact one of the
officers! We sure could use your help!
Business
Roundtables:
It is decided that we are
going to have our Business Roundtables in Hutzell on
Thursday February 15, 2007 from 12-1:30. There are about 5
business leaders that have agreed to come thus far; we are
still working on 3-5 more to assure the business luncheon is
a success. We should know by next meeting, hopefully, which
business leaders will be here to talk to us!
T-Shirts
and Polos:
Our money and invoice has
been turned in to Denny so our T-Shirts should be in
sometime within the next two weeks! YAY!!
Company
Visit:
We have received a phone call
from former SIFE member Tywan Cole who is now working for
Enterprise Rent-A-Car and he is very interested in coming to
a meeting to talk about his company. There is no date ironed
out yet, but we will let you know when he will be coming to
speak to us!
Annual
Report:
We really need to get started
with our annual reports and we are hoping that we can
recruit a graphic arts student or at the very least someone
who knows a lot about graphic art to help us make the best
possible annual report for competition. If you or someone
you know are interested, please contact an officer
IMMEDIATELY!
Active
Member count:
We are going to begin our
count for those members going on the trip to competition. We
have decided that the officers and project managers are
definitely getting a seat in Chicago. As far as the rest of
our count goes, we are going to look at attendance of
members. Please let me know whether or not you are
interested in joining us in
Chicago. Remember, competition
is on Sunday March 18th and March 19th.
We will be leaving at noon on Sunday and coming back around
10 or 11 on Monday night. That is also the last Sunday of
Spring Break so please take that into consideration!
Fund
Raising ideas:
Please let us know if you
have any fund raising ideas, we are in need of some funding
for our Regional Competition and hopefully our National
Competition. Aaron is going to try getting a hold of Ian
Rolland about contributing and we are still hoping that we
will receive some funding from Tower Bank. If anything comes
up and you think it’s a good idea, feel free to email any of
the officers, we would love to hear your ideas!
Website
Update:
We have finally gotten our
website updated and it is looking great thanks to our
wonderful friend Cathy Lewis! Check it out when you get a
chance and if you have any ideas that you think would add
itself nicely to the layout, please let us know! We are
planning on having the minutes from our meeting placed there
every week so you can always check there if you miss a
meeting!
Congratulate Matt Altenburger
on becoming our official historian! He will be the one with
the camera at all of our SIFE events!!
Thank you for your time and
your effort, I am confident that if we keep up the good
work, we will have no problems at competition!!
See you next week!!
Please email me if you have
any questions, comments, or concerns!!
