Class of 2010
Class Meeting Minutes
10/17/08
1. President:
- Next class meeting is Monday, November 10 at 11:00 am.
- Transition Ceremony date is Sunday, January 4
- Students are allowed to invite a family member, friend, mentor, or child over 10 to come up on stage and put our coats on us. No classmates can put coats on other classmates.
- The transition ceremony is in the Pasant Theatre in the Wharton Center and there is no guest number restriction.
- Faculty Advisor: we will vote first and then approach the person – coming soon
- We will vote for class officers at the next class meeting. E-mail Rachel Packard if you would like to run or renew.
2. 5/8s Party Updates
- We need to have some money left over for other expenses besides the party. These include: Graduation costs, class photo ($800-$1500), class gift, etc.
- Class of 2009 party was about $7000 if you adjust for inflation, but they did not have dinner (appetizers only).
- Budget Review:
Facility rental: $700
Food:
Drinks:
Dessert:
Decoration: $600
Entertainment: $850
Tickets/placecards/invitations: $200
- If 100 students attend and they each bring a guest the total cost would be around $9768. The guest ticket price is set at $40 each, but may be lowered if attendance is lower or costs are decreased. This would mean that we would spend about $5568 of class money. The cost of food/drink, etc. for each person attending is $52 per person.
- There was a lengthy discussion of issues and questions…..
3. Fred Tucker’s Proposal
- Donate money to Kabul University Veterinary School to help Afghani veterinary students.
a. Decrease 5/8s party budget to allow money for donation (via class vote)
b. Conduct CVM-wide invitation to donate
c. Coordinate with Dr. Fulton at DCPAH to make arrangements
- Look for e-mails for Fred shortly?
4. Brian White (5/8s Party music)
- Contacted several local bands – most did not respond. Listened to a band demo CD.
- Class Vote on this band vs. DJ. DJ wins.
- May cost closer to $400-500
5. 5/8s Party Alcohol vote
- $10/person for free wine, beer, soft drinks + cash bar for liquor vs. considering other options such as much more expensive open bar. $10/person wins.
