Welcoming everyone:
Attendants: Nicole, Rahel, Niko, Johanna, Sony, Antonia, Ella
Officeholder updates:
EOs:
- Proposal: info when and where SC meetings on SC board in the hallway → total agreement, will be done by Sony
- Any topics we should bring up when meeting with staff after the SC meeting? More power in the decision making process of events SC pays for or other funding (Lena)
→ Lena already sent something to them at some point, we’ll refer to the minutes, no new information - Website overload email?! Bot comments are getting out of hand!
→ not certain where to actually comment, Rahel will take care that they might be disabled - Website rework – underway – certain sections have been rewritten and others will also be redone – the Docs page is once again discoverable, this seems to have been made private (-> was only accessible when logged in), hence 404. (Rahel and Niko) Anything people have in mind on the website that needs editing?
→ they aren’t done, more contents (committees, …) will be updated and expanded on, reworking the Intranet section (all individually protected, centralizing the protection, if possible) - 30,000 Euros added to the general budget of the University, this is something the StuRa could decide to do stuff with – do people have ideas for programs that could use this money or ideas for new funds?
→ we could make new pots, possibly make new projects, from Campusgrün but opening question up for everyone and passing it on to StuRa representatives; BUT keep in mind that individual application process takes a lot of time → if it’s a bigger project it might be handy to combine the application (Niko)
StuRa:
- How did the poll work, was this an effective way of getting input on the upcoming issues?
→ according to Quill seems to be working acceptably so far (actually just a small amount of people but at least a few participants)
→ proposal: getting the polls by Thursday so it can be discussed in SC meeting → SC members can then try to influence/pass on the importance of some of the voting (Niko) - Not possible to get SVB applications anymore – deadline was today
Boards (Mediators, BOS, Outreach, Treasurer):
- Mediators:
- please please upload your pictures to the drive for the picture board!! Till next wednesday! → Niko will upload pictures from the election (in EO Drive)
- We have all the gifts, what now? Do we invite all the different past officeholders or do the new officeholders give it to them? Or or or…
→ we invite them, when they come we find them (Nicole)
→ Kimi will be sent a post card
→ Karen will receive a card with an invitation
→ EOs will send out invitations email to past office holders
- Secret santa might take place
→ who will help in setting it up (spreadsheet who wants to participate, sending an email): Niko, Rahel
→ if someone leaves early they should ask that it should be left in the place early as well
→ budget 5-10€
→ setting up a place where to leave and pick up presents
Committees:
- Update: GAD: meeting weekly, wednesday 6pm, organization on the lecture series for the coming year on the theme “expression” is ongoing
→ question what expression means but probably just means everything (Niko, Rahel)
→ put update in the Newsletter
- Update: Meeting weekly Crochet committee: ordered yarn via SVB already, over 10 people registered for the workshop. Workshop will take place in Dec.
- Update: Reading room <Readingroomcommittee@gmail.com>
- MONEY APPLICATION: 60 euros for Winter Festivity Feuerzangenbowle
→ proposal from Niko: pass application on to Lena and ask if we need to pay for all of that, joint event with staff so they might contribute (Rahel)
→ voting of SC: in favor of the application (7 yes, 1 no) !conditional on Lena’s assent!
- Weekly meeting
- RR SVB budgeting meeting coming soon

- Winter festivity: met first time, happening on Dec 20 (include in NL pls!), volunteers needed – email reading room if interested!
→ also in NL so that people don’t book their tickets too early and can’t take part (Rahel) - Update: LESC (not committee):

Miscellaneous/Wrapping up:
- Winter Formal Org Group meeting Friday, anything for them to keep in mind?
→ meeting at 1:25pm in the Common Room
→ Can we have fake snow? (Antonia) – problem of fire hazard regulations
→ paper snow flakes would be allowed on the tables (just not on the walls), setting up poles and do a net in between (possibly out of fairy lights) and attach snowflakes (sprayed) to it
