Redbrick Committee Meeting: 27 October 2004
Present: Michelle, Donal, Charlene, Charlie, Eoghan, Mark, Mickey, Tina, John, Una, Dave.
Grant Application
A preliminary discussion on the grant application revealed that redbrick would be principally requesting funding for events but that some hardware was also needed:
- Events - Mark will supply a full list to Charlene, who will assist him
with costings. Descriptions will be required for these events, as well as financial projections. 8 tutorials are expected per semester, after which refreshments will be served. The first tutorial will take place on 11 October 2004.
- Hardware - A fibre converter, rack rails and a cable tidy are required.
The need for the fibre converter was debated by Dave, but ultimately not removed.
Website
- Some elements of the site are out of date and will be updated by Dave.
- Tina will email the webgroup with a request to have access to the front page.
Clubs & Socs Day
- Tina has ideas for the stand and will discuss these with the committee before C&S day.
- Donal is working on an a0 print of the logo.
- Committee are to mail their availability to the list for the two days.
- Tshirts are being printed; 10 Medium, 10 Large.
- Paul May has agreed to supply helium for the balloons.
First Event
- No buses will be run to the event, because they were not adequately used
last year to justify them again.
- A PA desk id needed. The SPC will not allow theirs to be taken off campus.
Mark will look for quotes.
TV & DVD
Michelle and Eoghan to organise buying and transport of these.
Posters
- Donal feels that the current poster designs lack the cohesiveness of
previous, more branded campaigns. Tina says that this is a deliberate move away from what some people commented on as a boring look. Donal requested a compromise to include branded posters again.
- The high cost of printing was discussed and it was agreed that more would not
be spent on C&S Day booklets. Tina, Charlene and Una will photocopy and put them together instead.
Banner
Michelle to make contact about having the banner put up in the Hub.
Troublegum
troublegum.redbrick.dcu.ie was briefly and unfruitfully discussed.
