Committee Business

1.  Committee Auction – update!

Those who have not got in contact with who has purchased their services, do so.

2.  Welfare Event - update and details

Lauren and Ciara had a meeting: Wont just be us talking, we will be facilitating.

Lauren will send out resources tomorrow for feedback from Stonewall and the

internet. Tackles the issue of Bi*phobia/assumptions. Also taking out bi*pbhobia

things gathered from the campaigns events.

We will be tackling these issues from a committee point of view, making sure the B is

highlighted in our community/committee. Need to make sure that its clear that the

event is not a bi* social –  it’s for educational purposes – may even be more relevant

for people who do not identity as bi*

Stonewall report is 48 pages long –  so we’ll pick out key things from the report. 

Will be better to have small groups, rather than being one huge group – ensures that

 people all get a chance to speak and voice their opinions.

Event will be taking place in Committee Room 1.

3.  Wednesday Events - updates, details and feedback 

Murder Mystery –  We are (hopefully) meeting at Chris’ for the writing. This is 5pm

on Friday 5th, will probably only take a few hours. Someone named Nicola Williams

is coming along to be involved. Venue will probably be the Reading Room, but GUU

have been having problems with booking system

6th February – originally Cocktail class, but we also have the Debate with the dialectic

society – but they are not free. However, they do have a debate that night which is on

gender independence and they are keen to have someone from LGBT with them.

Cardonald College also having an event that night for LGBT history night that starts

at 4.30pm and runs from 9.30. They are having a lecture, information stalls, a buffet

and a DISCO. Could be a chance to get involved with colleges, but not sure whether 

we can actually go because of time.

*NOT HAPPENING BUT WE WILL INVITE THEM TO QUEERFEST.

* Could likely do debate and then cocktail class.

13th Feb  – Guys and Dolls, opening night of guys and dolls – support their society

 because they are likely doing something for queerfest.

-  However, having the cocktail class and then guys and dolls might be a little too

much money for our members.

20th Feb Queer 101 – Venue trouble? We could have it in a lecture theatre, but this will

likely cost a lot of money.

We could use the reading room – but we may be having too many events in there?

27th Feb – Reading Party – Lauren convinced them to have it in the Reading Room, GUU.

13th of March – Farewell dinner, last actual event – Black tie/black and white event –  It’ll be

classy! We should have U-shaped tables instead of round tables.

Vicky Gunn is happy to be involved – wants to know if it is pre-dinner speech/after dinner.

White on black card for place settings! What about gift ideas? – Tunnocks Tea Takes and

custom made lovehearts. Prom-style photo as people are coming in.

There might be a better name for the Farewell Dinner  – if anyone has ideas email

Tabitha/Erin/Ciara

4.  QueerFest - updates, details and feedback 

a.  Funding: Lauren already started e-mailing Universities, and is meeting with

Sub-Committee tomorrow.

Polo are having an event on Saturday –  Theme is “Iconic” – LGBT youth will

 be there.

RAG week: Fund-raising might help us to get SRC grant application. We are

running our events for free, so if we have rag week buckets there – that would

 be good.

Chris – Cabaret is fine, can be finalised by tomorrow.

Amy – STAR  – What would they do? Lauren just wants to have a stall, so

other socieites

Ciara – Lock Up your daughters – Could have films all day, and a couple of 

shorts from them. Could be a nice chill out space.

Steen – Swing dance seem keen.

5.  Bookclub

a.  Feedback from meeting with Louise: Meeting went well. Will replace our 

 bookclub, but with video-link. Erin is keeping control of this and is trying to

find a space.
