March 7, 2007 - General Meeting Minutes


-The “You Broke Our Heart” Video Game Fest, which 
took place last  Thursday, was a great success. A 
special thank you to all those who  attended, 
participated, loaned equipment, helped set up, and 
helped clean  up.    -On Thursday, March 8th, from 
4-5 pm, Andy Stutzman will be doing a  presentation, 
“IT Job Opportunities in Higher Ed” in the library 
auditorium 017.    

-On March 21st, from 10-11 am, Bernard Yee is doing 
a presentation on Guitar Hero in either the Library 
Auditorium or in Holman Hall. If anyone is interested 
in attending, please contact Dr. DePasquale as soon 
as possible.    

-If anyone is interested in displaying their knowledge 
of computers and electronics by participating in the 
Geek Auction, please email Kate for more information. 
This event is an important fundraiser for the ACM and 
is an excellent way to build up your resume.    

-At the second to last meeting of the semester, we 
will be holding elections for the executive board for 
the next semester. The positions  include President, 
Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasury and the last  
meeting of the semester will be run by the new board 
members.    

-Thus far, the club has earned a running total of 
$795.00 in fundraising.  The ACM is interested in 
using this money to coordinate an event. We are 
thinking of planning a bus trip to NYC, doing a middle 
school outreach  program, or updating the ACM library. 
Also, we are going to start a point  system, where you 
can earn points by participating in the events, workshops, 
and lectures and, if you earn a total of 10 points, you will 
not have to pay the fee for the trip.    

-Upcoming fundraising activities include the Super Smash 
Brothers  Tournament, which will occur on March 22, the Pi 
Day Celebration on March 30, and the Video Game Night on 
April 5. Also, we are considering working a food stand at 
an event at the Sovereign Bank Arena in the future.    

-There is no meeting next week! The next meeting will take 
place on the Wednesday following spring break. Matthew Winkel 
is going to attend this particular meeting in order to get vital 
feedback from the members of the ACM regarding the Library Website.    

-Enjoy your spring break!! ;)
