Fundraising
ACM will be working on computers, and one wil be coming soon. Spread the word...

I will make flyers for this as well as post on the WSC Underground and place an ad in the Stater.

I will also be making "Join ACM" posters because people have been asking questions. I will also send emails the Monday before the meeting.

Sunbeam training - 2 days in February on Saturday mornings or some evening.

Roger will be preparing the systems for Computers for Uganda.
We'd like to send 2 systems in the next semester.
Future ideas: going to Uganda (not right now) for training, African bracelet sales...

Leadership seminar sponsored by Circle K, Student Senate, and SAB will be January 29th, next weekend. Nick would like people to go to this. Email him if you can attend.
