Wow, where has the term gone? We’re already well into March! This has been a very successful term so far, especially given the circumstances. We have lots of stuff coming up this month, make sure you’re subscribed to the mailing list so you don’t miss out. We received some brand new leather portfolios in Novelties last week, they’re very nice so go and check ‘em out! Today would have been the first of two days of the Novelties sale in the CPH Foyer. I expect this to be very successful with a goal of beating last term’s record sales of $1850 in two days. As always we have the bargain bin down to $1 T-Shirts, as well as other deals that (at the time of writing) have yet to be finalized. Stop by and take a good look at the sale, and who knows what you’ll find!

Donations were decided at meeting 4, and we gave away a total of $4500 (which was budgeted for)! I believe this is record, which is very exciting of course! I have attached the results to my article. Donations are given away to student groups on campus, with precedence given to groups that represent UW Engineering to the community and the world, as well as groups that have a large membership of engineering students.

MOT had an unusually low attendance, so we are looking into moving back to POETS for EOT (with the patio open). This would give graduating students a chance to have ‘one last OT’ in POETS as well as the opportunity to save costs.

We’ve been doing lots of research on possible future renovations to POETS, but there’s nothing to report yet. I’ll keep you posted as we get some solid results. In other new there is an EngSoc election currently underway. There are two candidates campaigning this week to be your next VP-F, so I encourage all of you to get informed and vote in the election. May the best candidate win!

Stay Classy A-Soc!
