Agenda Approved. No guests to recognize. Consent calendar approved (Meeting minutes for Nov. 7 & 18, and Dec. 5, 2002).
President's Report2.1 The CR newspaper, CR Corsair, has released a spring issue recently, but there is no recognition of campus clubs. a. Mj met with Cheryl Tucker to get deadlines for article submissions. b. Mj would like someone to volunteer to write an article for the upcoming issue.
2.2 We will be setting up the AGS display in the Forum breezeway display case this Sunday, Feb. 2nd, at 1pm. a. Mj opened the floor up for discussion about the theme for this month's display. i. Members agreed that we should focus on promoting our membership drive for the theme and have our service projects be secondary.
2.3 Mj has set the schedules for some of the spring service projects. a. Adopt-A-Highway will be scheduled monthly on Sundays @ 12:00pm. b. Dunes Restoration will be scheduled on Saturdays from 9-1pm. c. Diqui mentioned that the Humboldt Bay Nat'l Wildlife Refuge is planning on having another planting event during the semester. She will keep us posted. d. Adie heard that the Arcata Community Forest will be hosting a plant eradication (I image these would be non-native plants) event on Saturday, April 12th. She will keep us posted. e. March is Women's History Month and Mj would like AGS to participate by hosting a presentation consisting of 3 Humboldt County women who have made an impact in the community. i. Mj suggested DeVita Copeland, Site Manager for Klamath/Trinity campus as a potential speaker. ii. Mj welcomes anyone to help her coordinate this event. iii. We could charge a nominal admission (ASB cardholders free, $1 students, $3 general) to raise money. iv. Most of the money is to be made with a refreshment table during the event. f. Charlotte will update the website calendar to reflect the service project dates.
2.4 Mj noticed that PTK is selling PTK merchandise in the bookstore. She would like to see AGS get in on the action. a. Mj will check with Shirley/Jean about the process for AGS to possibly sell T-shirts.
2.5 It would be nice if AGS had a newsletter to promote AGS. It doesn't have to be a major venture. a. Adie suggested getting local businesses to advertise in the newsletter for a fee. b. We could enter the newsletter in the spring conference competition and win a whole lot of glory for the Gamma Rho Chapter. c. Adie will work on getting ads, Charlotte and Diana will work on graphics, and Mj and Patrick will work on articles.
2.7 We have the small display case, but we don't have the small display case! Well, at least not to the point where we can actually put anything in it. a. Last semester the advisors received keys to the case, but they were the wrong keys! b. Mj has spoken with Everett in maintenance, and he will be sending keys to the advisors shortly.
2.8 Last semester the seed was planted to join forces with the Forestry and Natural Resources Club on some projects. a. Mj has emailed the FNR Club about doing a membership drive for their club jointly with our membership drive. The FNR Club President, Margaret Burton, is excited about the prospect but needs to run the idea by the members. b. FNR Club is also doing trails restoration projects, which AGS members are invited to participate in.
2.9 We will be building a team for the upcoming Relay For Life event this summer. Members should start thinking about whether or not they want to be on the team. If all goes well, AGS will be the first CR team to walk in the relay. a. Mj will keep us posted on team information.
2.11 The 1st Vice President position is still vacant. a. Adie has volunteered to step into the position. In accordance with the chapter bylaws, the Executive Officers will need to nominate her for the position and the general members will need to vote on it at the next meeting. Good luck Adie you're a shoe-in! b. With Adie leaving the roost, the ICC position will become vacant. i. Diana wants a crack at being the ICC Rep.
Advisor's Report (Diqui) 7.1 Diqui gave us the official welcome back speech. "Welcome." (It was short, but sweet.) 7.2 She suggested raising funds by placing ads on the website and getting a Co-op donation number. 7.3 She was asked by Mike Butler if the Math & Science Club could place their link on our website. Everyone liked that idea. She will keep us posted with the details. a. She also mentioned Math & Science Club raised 'mucho' bucks with the coffee and bagel table. We could set up shop outside the physical science building and creative arts.
2nd Vice President's Report 4.2 We will be having our first membership booth and bake sale on Thursday, Feb. 6 in front of the LRC. The booth will move to the Forum Breezeway if it rains. (No one buys soggy brownies anymore.) a. We will also be selling baked goods at the booth. b. Last semester the members agreed to help support the CASA cause by getting members to report their Safeway cards numbers. For every Safeway card number reported, Safeway will give CASA a percentage of the money you spend using your Club Card. c. Mj passed around the booth/table sitting schedule. d. We may not have enough people for the Feb. 24 booth to have a bake sale, so help out if you can. We need all the opportunities to make money we can get!
Treasurer's Report5.1 We have enough money to pay for the AGS logo we have on our Adopt-A-Highway sign, but not much else. See.we need to raise funds.
Secretary's Report6.2 The Gamma Rho website cannot be accessed from the new CR website yet. a. The Gamma Rho website has been retained at our old URL, which is on the brochure. b. Charlotte will try to update the site ASAP.
I.C.C Rep. Report8.1 Adie has emailed Teri Clark, the CA governor of Rotary, about AGS. In turn Teri has sent an email to the local Rotary Clubs for donations, but Adie hasn't had any response yet. a. Adie has joined RotarAct (intermediary between Rotary and high school), so she will work on getting donations or contacts from them. By the way, members who are 18-30 years old can join. Sad to say, most of us present were TOO OLD to join. i. Adie suggested members brainstorm on a list of fundraising ideas at the next meeting.
Members At Large9.3 Diana will be graduating soon and expressed interest in becoming a permanent member. a. Mj will work on getting the process started.
Announcements10.1 A green spring 2003 sticker is required on the student ID cards for student's seeking access to student services (i.e. library, cafeteria, math lab, etc.) They are free and can be picked up at the ID card station in the upstairs Admin. building. 10.2 Mj encourages students to support A.S.C.R. by purchasing an A.S.C.R sticker ($5), which will get you into CR athletic games, theater, musical events, and lectures for free. They can be purchased at the cashier's office in the Admin. building. 10.3 The staff lounge is open until 10pm for students who are seeking shelter until their transportation arrives. 10.4 The next meeting will be Wed., Feb. 5 at 8am.

All officers agreed to give CASA the donation money ($25 so far) that was raised during the membership drive. a. Mj will present Ahn Fielding with the donation after our next bake sale. 4. We will need a 'cheat sheet' at the membership booth outlining AGS requirements and CASA. 5. Mj would like to amend the chapter by-laws. a. She has found that students interested in joining are hesitant to join because of the service point requirement. b. She would like to reduce the service point requirement for initial members from the 12-14 point requirement to 10 and allowing the members to earn the points however they want. c. Many new members have less time to fulfill the service point requirement than continuing members because they join later in the semester. d. Charlotte expressed concerns about complicating the by-laws and getting in the habit of revising the by-laws every time potential members have complaints. e. Adie didn't want to be unfair to continuing members who have to earn the 12-14 points under strict guidelines f. Adie suggested keeping the by-laws as is and reviewing the initial members' point requirement at the end of the semester to see if each member qualifies for Continuing Membership or not. g. Mj would like to prevent end of semester reviews because it can be taxing to do case-by-case evaluations every semester. The 10-point amendment would be more 'cut and dry'. h. Officers agreed to bring the amendment to the members for a vote. Mj will write up the amendment and email it to the members, so it can be voted on. i. In the meantime, we can let potential members know that this amendment is being proposed to the membership. 6.

Have articles into Mj by Feb. 20, so we can get the issue into Jesse by Feb. 24th.
Adie - 1st Vice President 1. Adie has emailed the Rotary President of the Eureka and Arcata chapter about grants. a.

Mj mentioned that Adie should contact David Holper since he hosts the CR Visiting Authors Series, and he may be able to get funds to bring in Alice Walker.

EXECUTIVE BOARD MINUTES
Gamma Rho Chapter Time: 15:30 - 17:00 Place: Marie Callender's restaurant, Eureka In Attendance: Mj Goble-President, Adie Baker - 1st Vice President, Patrick Cross - 2nd Vice President, Charlotte Peters-Secretary, Diana Newett - I.C.C. Rep.
President's Report: 1.2 Mj reported revenue from the bake sales. a. We raised $200 at the 1st bake sale and $165 ($45 goes to the F&NR Club for their baked goods) at the 2nd bake sale b. People donated a total of $30 for CASA. CASA also received 14 new e-Script accounts. c. Mj will check with CASA about recognition for donations. 1.3 Relay For Life team ("Gamma Rays") a. Mj and Charlotte attended the Relay For Life kick-off dinner and registered the Gamma Rho Chapter as a team. Diane Kerr was also present and is coordinating fundraising ideas. b. We will be looking for people to join the team. We need a minimum of eight and maximum of 12 people to participate. i. So far we have 5-6 people committed to the team. 1.4 Future membership events a. We need to get a "FAQS sheet" together outlining AGS rules and requirements, so that we can ensure everyone is giving out the same information about AGS. b. Mj briefly went over the requirements and grace period guidelines. 1.5 We discussed the membership status of two of our members. a. Diane Kerr petitioned the Executive Board to be considered for continuing membership. Patrick Cross also petitioned the Board to remain as both a continuing member and officer. b. After considering Diane's dedication to the club, we decided to grant continuing membership status and waive her cumulative GPA. 1.6 SIDE NOTE: This decision was overturned after it was realized that the member did not fulfill two of the requirements. We decided not to grant membership to Diane, but encouraged her to reapply in the fall. a. Continuing membership status was granted to Patrick after his dedication into consideration; however, due to his semester GPA, the Board deemed it prudent he resigns as 2nd Vice President. 1.7 Mj brought up the idea of revising the chapter by-laws regarding AP credits for high school students. a. As is stands now students entering CR straight from high school can join AGS if they were a member of the California Scholarship Federation or completed 6 units in AP coursework. b. Mj felt the wording wasn't clear as to whether the by-laws stipulate that the AP units were counted if the AP course was passed regardless if the AP test was passed. c. The Board decided to keep the policy as is-requiring only the passing of AP courses. 1.8 Mj updated everyone on the status with the state conference. a. Chapter members will not be able to compete for scholarships this year because we are not in good standing with the state. We are required to attend 2 conferences per year, which we have not done this past year. b. We still need to send a member and an advisor to the spring conference in order to regain good standing for next year. c. Mj lobbied ASCR for $500 to help cover conference costs; it was approved. d. It was proposed that we establish our own scholarships in the fall semester (1 service-based, 1 academic-based, and 1 service/academic based) to follow suit with the state chapter. Scholarships will start at $100 each. 1.9 Mj updated us on the upcoming Women's Herstory Month celebration. a. Events celebrating women will be held at CR on Tues, March 18 and Wed., March 19. The place for the events is not concrete yet, either the Forum Theatre or Lakeview Room. b. The CHOICE project will do a discussion on the targeting of women by cigarette companies through advertising. c. Diana suggests Francine and Nymiah as a potential band. d. We will host a movie "Alice doesn't live here anymore" for free, but sell popcorn and soda to raise scholarship funds. i. Deborah Syrdal will be facilitating discussion on 3rd Wave Feminism. e. Adie will look into getting a popcorn popper and seeing if the Rape Crisis center would be willing to come to the campus. f. The CHOICE project will cover the cost of supplies if the event is declared as being "Smoke-free". g. ASCR will hold a barbeque on Wednesday from 11-1pm in front of the old library. 1.10 Mj followed up on the permanent membership application. a. Apparently the state does not have an application for permanent membership; the local chapters are responsible for drafting their own application. b. Once a member is considered a permanent member by the chapter, they are considered a permanent member by the state.
1st Vice President's Report: No report
2nd Vice President's Report: 1. Patrick is researching the possibility of having women singers come to the campus.
Secretary's Report: 1. Mj single-handedly wrestled a FTP site for Charlotte to update the website from home. a. The time lag in which the updates hit the website will be much shorter now.
