Hey everyone! Hope your term has been going well so far! With midterms just over the horizon, I know that things are starting to pick up and time is feeling a bit short, but time is money, so there’s tons to talk about when it comes to the finances of EngSoc!
Novelties
We had a Novelties fire sale, which was extremely successful! A lot of people came and showed their engineering spirit by almost buying out the stock we had on sale. As a result of the success of this fire sale, there may be another one near the end of the term, so keep an eye out for that! However, since we have sold a lot of our current inventory, we need some new stuff in Novelties! So after reading week, we will be running a Novelties Design Contest to get some new and awesome Engineering Swag. So if you have any ideas about what you think Novelties should carry, we are all ears!
RidgidWare
There are tons of new supplies in RidgidWare! The amazing RidgidWare directors have been working throughout the first month of term to organize all the stock in RidgidWare and placing orders for what is needed, as well as find new items that we should stock. We hope that by the end of the term, a long-term plan for RidgidWare should be in place, and that a clearer vision for the future of RidgidWare will be developed.
Sponsorship
Every term, EngSoc offers sponsorship to student teams and any student organizations that directly affect or benefit Engineering students. Sponsorship applications are currently open and will close on Friday, February 26th, 2016 by 11:59pm. More information will be sent out once all applications are in, and have been reviewed.
