Thinking of solutions to implement for the compost bins
One option is to change the appearance of the bins or incorporate lids
Marilena to talk to Jared again to find out if solution was implementable
Denise probably unaware of reason compost pick-up stopped in the first place (because of mix with trash)
Sold aout 180 cups in the first week
Modal choice being coffee, followed by hot chocolate
Messes formed - straws being spilled, spilled sugar etc
Bags not yet recycled
People mostly using the cups that are provided
Data about time of day when people buy coffee not yet collected
Time requirement doesn't seem to be too heavy
Hunter to get a change machine for counting the coins
Inhouse barbecues and Ice-cream socials are favoured by residents in that order
Attendance is a function of people's schedules and not really quality of emails
Joint events work better than single events
Ice-cream socials give people opportunity to come and go as they want
Non-free events tend to scare people away
Having people deposit and get their money back better ensures attendance
They were okay with after-event reports
Officers are willing to throw better quality events
They are open to mandates about events
Their job-niche: they can reach out to people who won't come to large events
Upping the event cap was a good idea
Likely that it happened. To confirm with Ann
We are going to try this out - Arghavan already ordered them
Kristin at the front desk previously cleaning it
She is presently putting together a document that will show people how to do so
Getting residents to clean it might be tough but we can try
Need more brunch and social officers
Lost some officers over the summer
Nicole to confirm how many we can afford in terms of continuing status
Need to think about officer transition dinner. Will come after recruting new officers
Transition dinner likely to be every semester to get officers think about the semester
Tentative date and time - October 6th, 6:30pm
Logistics to be sorted out by Matt
Semester proposals to be due on that day
Official semester transition days to be finalized tonight
Decision might be pushed back for a little bit
Have it done by SP
If they can advertise and pick them up, they may be able to keep the money
