- Officer Dinner Recap
- We had some officers attending the AHEC meeting since they didn't make it to the officer dinner
- Brunch
- Next Brunch
- Brunch would like more money for a Halloween themed lunch
- They are going to send AHEC a proposal of what they want to buy, and AHEC will approve or deny it
- Seating at the Thirsty Ear for brunch
- In order to use the thirsty ear for extra seating, a lot of things have to happen
- They will need a trusted person to look over the space and they will need to thoroughly clean it
- The brunch committee is going to talk about this amongst themselves
- Brunch Aprons
- Ludwig ordered the aprons, and they may be shared between coffee hour and brunch
- Both committees will be responsible for cleaning the aprons

- There was a good turn out last night for the first debate
- There are plans for the next debates
- Hulsizer Room Projector
- The projector has been overheating because the filter is clogged
- The filter has been cleaned and projector will be working soon
- Pizza Competition
- Abishek is getting ready for the Pizza competition this Saturday
- Game Night
- The first game night was a success
- There were enough people there to fill all of Ashdown's common space that can be used for board games (floor lounges, Fabyan room)
- Andy is going to host another one next Wednesday
- Andy also proposed that Ashdown buys Ticket to Ride and Risk for the next game night
- The purchase was approved so Andy will order it tonight
- Weight Room
- There is a plastic barrier in the weight room because of painting
- There were also complaints about it being cold
- Sports Equipment for Front Desk
- Eva thinks the athletics officer should be in charge of the athletics equipment
- We will leave things as they are for now
- Purchase Suggestions
- Abishek thinks we should get more up to date with our game systems, possibly an xbox360
- Also, he thinks we should get a punching bag
- This has been proposed multiple times, but the ceiling isn't strong enough to support a bag, and there isn't enough room for a free standing structure to hold the bag.
- Bike Room Cleanout
- Town Hall Meeting
- We have been talking about having a presentation at a coffee hour and asking for suggestions
- We all agree that this is a good idea, and Andrea will continue planning it
