Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:53:48 PM): I will go through most of the major decisions made by the executive board over the past several months. These are the primary decisions since the MIT Space Vision 2008 Ryan Caron WPI- observer (9:54:08 PM): *2007? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:54:14 PM): 2007, thanks Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:54:39 PM): I will not outline every decision, little things like "We wont meet next week due to holiday" will be excluded Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:54:52 PM): Though if you at any time want to peruse what has been discussed or decided by the executive board Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:55:49 PM): transcripts are available at http://wiki.seds.org/index.php/SEDS-USA_Meetings Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:56:17 PM): If you have any questions about what has gone on at SEDS USA meetings, please feel free to IM, email, or call me at any reasonable hour Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:56:28 PM): First on my list of primary decisions is the revamping of seds.org Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:56:48 PM): The Executive Board tasked our new webmaster, Joshua Sosa with revamping the SEDS.org website Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:57:06 PM): In late december/early january we approved the implementation of the new website Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:57:10 PM): which you can view at www.seds.org Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:57:39 PM): the previous site was fairly ugly, simple, and disorganized Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:57:58 PM): I'm fairly pleased with what has been done on the website, and I hope you concur Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:58:15 PM): One thing I would ask you all take a look at is the login/registration system Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:58:34 PM): In 1 week this login will allow you to post your personal resume / CV Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:58:43 PM): for potential employers to search Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (9:59:15 PM): when sponsors such as Raytheon, Lockheed, etc.. sponsor SEDS they will gain access to searching our membership database for the purposes of job/internship searches Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:00:14 PM): At this time I'd like to open the floor to any questions regarding the new website. Some of which I may be able to answer, others I will direct to the webmaster. Ryan Caron WPI- observer (10:00:28 PM): i assume any seds member can register, not just chapter reps? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:00:35 PM): yup Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:00:39 PM): any SEDS member or alumni Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (10:00:50 PM): my browser says the security certificate isn't valid Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:01:10 PM): it is, it just expired Tuesday I believe. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:01:14 PM): Trust me, SEDS isnt trying to hack you Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:01:16 PM): Yet Nick Day UBuffalo (10:01:32 PM): yea, i think that i just clicked allow temporarily Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:01:40 PM): I've mentioned the security certificate issue and Josh Sosa is fixing it Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (10:01:44 PM): good to know Basant V Sagar MIT (10:02:25 PM): it needs to be updated with info abt individual chapters Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:02:36 PM): Yes Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:03:06 PM): part of the login system (in about a week to two weeks) will actually allow the president/rep of the chapter to update their own info Basant V Sagar MIT (10:03:12 PM): though I agree Styx is a nice name Basant V Sagar MIT (10:03:15 PM): cool Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:03:21 PM): hence why Styx is currently listed as the email and president of most chapters Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:03:53 PM): this will help make sure it is the most up to date info as possible, if chapters change their reps, presidents, contact info, etc.. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:04:15 PM): Any questions about the website/login/resume databse? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:04:18 PM): database* Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:04:32 PM): feel free to message me with any outside the meeting if they come to mind later Basant V Sagar MIT (10:04:51 PM): can't login... does it take a while to activate accounts? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:04:55 PM): Yeah Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:00 PM): they need to be individually approved Nick Day UBuffalo (10:05:01 PM): what does it mean "when they sponser SEDS"? is that like conferences? Michael Green UCF (10:05:01 PM) has entered the room. Alexander Roth Purdue (10:05:02 PM): check ur email Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:05 PM): just to stop someone from spamming Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:14 PM): yes Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:24 PM): large monetary donations to the organization basically Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:32 PM): aerospace/space sponsors Nick Day UBuffalo (10:05:47 PM): yea, ok Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:05:50 PM): this is primarily for things like the Endowment Fund, Rocket Project, etc.. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:06:05 PM): In the future we can also open it to small companies that express interest Nick Day UBuffalo (10:06:15 PM): sounds good Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:06:15 PM): if they're deemed of good quality. TonioAsura (10:06:26 PM): Will there be any method for non-commercial space organizations to get involved with that roster? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:06:40 PM): of course, if they express interest Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:06:57 PM): and they're deemed to be legitimate, and related to Space Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:07:20 PM): Any further questions? Basant V Sagar MIT (10:07:36 PM): abt the Balloon Launch contest... Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:07:45 PM): Thats an upcoming item Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:07:55 PM): any further questions on the website? Nick Day UBuffalo (10:08:05 PM): nope, looks good Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:08:31 PM): In that case, since it was expressed, I'll talk about the Rocket Competition Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:09:21 PM): At this point, things have been significantly delayed due to FAA negotiations over the rules/regs, as well as the X PRIZE Foundation not commiting to hosting the Cup this year yet Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:09:52 PM): According to the original timeline, letters of intent were supposed to be due by February 1st Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:10:08 PM): I'm hoping, if you guys agree, we can push this back to March 1st Basant V Sagar MIT (10:10:21 PM): that's alright... Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:10:31 PM): the letter of intent document and more detailed competition information will be posted on seds.org Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:10:36 PM): that's fine Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:10:38 PM): now, the one problem we have at this point Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:10:45 PM): if the X PRIZE Cup doesnt happen this year Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:10:56 PM): the costs of hosting this competition, and the complexity goes up exponentially Nick Day UBuffalo (10:11:22 PM): why is that? just curious... Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:11:52 PM): Therefore I would like to start accepting letters of intent with the disclaimer that if the X Prize Cup does not happen this year, we'll delay the competition to a different date/venue, within 1 year Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:12:27 PM): As to the question of why... Last year they lost their title name sponsor several weeks before the event Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:12:42 PM): which caused a large number of problems on site Nick Day UBuffalo (10:12:51 PM): o, wow!! Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:13:15 PM): I've actually been asked by Darrell to hold on this item for now Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:13:22 PM): since MIT has proposed it as an agenda item later in the meeting Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:13:30 PM): and it is not a decision of the exec board per say Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:13:48 PM): Next on the list of major exec decisions is the Endowment Fund Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:14:11 PM): until now, SEDS-USA on a national level has had virtually no income outside of dues Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:14:44 PM): we've had great success in getting individual funding for small projects like the conferences, etc... but for operational expenses we've had virtually nothing Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:15:02 PM): Therefore Ryan McLinko proposed an Endowment fund Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:15:13 PM): the way it works is we get sponsors to donate a large quantity of money Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:15:37 PM) has left the room. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:15:41 PM): and the interest off that money will supply the national organization with a yearly budget Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:15:59 PM): the base sum will be virtually untouchable Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:16:17 PM): so SEDS-USA will have operational funds for years in the future Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:16:25 PM): The Board approved this project Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:16:58 PM): and then after searching for several organizations to help set it up, we found that a company under the direction of Darrell Cain's father actually had the best offer for us Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:17:29 PM): they are going to help set up and run the endowment fund for us, as well as helping us set up the much desired 501c Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:17:57 PM) has entered the room. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:17:59 PM): given that we've been trying for the past 5 years to get this on our own, and it hasnt happened, bringing in professional help seemed a good idea Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:18:34 PM): The exec board, after researching various options, decided to set up the fund with this company Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:18:56 PM): a certain percentage of money fundraised for the fund will go to teh company to help cover costs Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:19:11 PM): and I believe the 501c setup will be free? Darrell, correct me on that? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:20:05 PM): Yes, they're donating the 501c setup for free Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:20:19 PM): which will save us a massive amount of money and problems Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:20:27 PM): Any questions regarding the endowment fund? Nick Day UBuffalo (10:21:18 PM): just one, is it like a loan? or a donation (as were really a non-profit)? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:21:35 PM): we are taking donations for the endowment fund Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:21:44 PM): Ryan Mclinko is heading the effort to pursue sponsors Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:22:13 PM): SEDS is not, and cannot participate in deficit spending Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:22:18 PM): we are really a non-profit Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:22:22 PM): trust me, I dont get paid. John Ferreira FIT (10:22:26 PM): How large of a donation is being looked for? I simply ask because I don't know what the budget is that is needed to run on. Are we talking several major companies, a few smaller, or what? Nick Day UBuffalo (10:22:33 PM): nor do i..lol Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:22:42 PM): several major John Ferreira FIT (10:22:56 PM): And, if the budget to operate needs to increase, will we be able to continue adding donations over the years to increase the interest? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:22:57 PM): the exact size of the fund will determine how much we have to work with yearly Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:23:02 PM): yes Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:23:18 PM): ideally a fund of 50-100k would be nice Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:23:39 PM): this company will also yearly refile the IRS documents for us Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:23:48 PM): so a year of inactivity wont lose all of the work for everyone John Ferreira FIT (10:24:01 PM): Is there a minimum donation amount? And how are the companies donating going to be recognized? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:24:08 PM): I've just recieved a correction, 300k would be ideal Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:24:26 PM): and yes, we'll work out recognition suitable to both the donating company, and SEDS Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:24:42 PM): as to the minimum donation amount, I do not know Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:24:52 PM): I have not seen the proposed funding levels yet Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:25:01 PM): I would suggest asking Ryan, Vice Chair of SEDS about that John Ferreira FIT (10:25:09 PM): Ok. Thank you. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:25:12 PM): Any further questions on Endowment Fund? Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:25:46 PM): no Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:26:11 PM): A further correction, the company will charge 1% of the total amount of the account per year. this will cover expenses such as suggested investments, refiling 501c, maintaining the fund, etc.. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:26:21 PM): and again, this was the cheapest option we could find Michael Green UCF (10:26:55 PM): what percent interest are we looking at roughly? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:27:12 PM): for the yearly SEDS amount? Michael Green UCF (10:27:23 PM): yeah Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:27:43 PM): ideally 5-6% Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:27:50 PM): so we'll be gaining money, not losing Michael Green UCF (10:27:59 PM): just wanted to make sure... Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:28:03 PM): even if the fundraising efforts stop after the fund is established Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:28:38 PM): Darrell just let me know that the company's average is around 6-10% Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:28:45 PM): so we'll likely do quite well Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:28:55 PM): I'm going to close the floor on that item to move on Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:29:45 PM): next big decision is to create a SEDS lapel pin for sale to SEDS members going to conferences, etc.. and for sale to alumni interested in displaying their SEDS heritage Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:30:08 PM): Brian Young, director of educational outreach designed a nice silver pin Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:30:20 PM): the seds logo in silver, about an inch and a half wide Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:30:45 PM): the exec board after reviewing the designs, approved purchase of the pins Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:30:58 PM): which will be sold at conferences, etc.. at profit Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:31:09 PM): questions on those? John Ferreira FIT (10:31:22 PM): Is there a picture of some sort on the wiki? John Ferreira FIT (10:31:31 PM): Or is it just the logo? Ryan Caron WPI- observer (10:31:32 PM): sounds awesome... i'll buy one. picture would be nice Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:31:33 PM): hmm I do not believe one was posted Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:31:36 PM): it is just the logo Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:31:38 PM): in silver Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:31:48 PM): the classic SEDS fire-wire logo John Ferreira FIT (10:31:54 PM): Would members be able to buy it from the website as well? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:00 PM): probably, yes Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:05 PM): or chapters could buy in bulk Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:22 PM): we will need to work out the logistics once they arrive and we deem that we're keeping them Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:30 PM): (dont want to give out bad product) Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:43 PM): I will get you guys a picture Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:32:50 PM): I do not have a link to one right now Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:33:05 PM): the pins should arrive in about 1-2 weeks Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:33:11 PM): Any further questions? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:33:22 PM): Floor closed on that item. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:33:30 PM): Next, and perhaps most major Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:33:40 PM): the executive board decided that our constitution needed major updating Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:34:07 PM): given that the old one we were operating on dated back to 1992, and needed to be tweaked to fit our current organization Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:34:33 PM): the link to the new proposed constitution, is https://www.seds.org/documents/SEDS-USA_National_Constitution.pdf Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:34:44 PM): this is only a proposed constitution, and still needs to be ratified by the CoC Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:34:53 PM): major changes include: Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:35:21 PM): Giving the Advisor Board an actual job, they will help administer the endowment fund Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:35:58 PM): removing language that put SEDS-USA under the direct control of SEDS-Earth, given that there is no formal SEDS Earth organization Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:36:19 PM): defining exactly what policing powers the executive board has over chapters Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:36:53 PM): And adding the Endowment Fund to the document in general Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:36:56 PM): what powers? Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:37:18 PM): sorry nvm Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:38:10 PM): The document will sit in review until the next CoC meeting Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:38:31 PM): during that time you can raise objections to individual changes Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:38:31 PM): via email Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:38:35 PM): to the Director of Chapter Affairs Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:38:58 PM): then at the next CoC there will be debate on any objections, a vote, and hopefully a ratification Basant V Sagar MIT (10:39:18 PM): cool Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:39:28 PM): any questions about the constitution? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:39:50 PM): again, if you read over it between now and next CoC and have any questions, feel free to ask me about any of them Basant V Sagar MIT (10:39:57 PM): can't we have a formal SEDS Earth as well Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:39:57 PM): and the logic behind certain changes, etc... Basant V Sagar MIT (10:40:08 PM): controlled by SEDS-USA Basant V Sagar MIT (10:40:16 PM): hmm.. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:40:19 PM): its in my long term plans Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:40:26 PM): but we need to get our own house in order Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:40:46 PM): Any further questions? Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:41:15 PM): no Nick Day UBuffalo (10:41:18 PM): nope Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:41:36 PM): In which case I close the executive board update, and pass the floor back to Darrell Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:41:39 PM): alright Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:41:44 PM): the next set is agenda items Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:42:01 PM): from now on agenda items must be added by individual chapters three days before the next CoC meeting Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:42:13 PM): for this meeting I'm allowing them to be added by message to me Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:42:27 PM): one set of agenda items can be added at any time Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:42:55 PM): and those are agenda items proposing discussion/vote on an executive board decision presented during the exec board decision portion of the meeting Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:19 PM): i.e. if there is a major problem or concern about an exec board decision, then you can IM me during the meeting and it will be added as an agenda item Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:27 PM): each agenda item is sponsored by a specific chapter Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:32 PM): they will gain control of the floor Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:43 PM): they have approximately two minutes to address that item Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:46 PM): then open to questions Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:43:57 PM): after that I will ask if we need to move to open debate Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:44:10 PM): during that time and during an open debate a vote can be proposed Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:44:17 PM): not every item has to have a vote Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:44:22 PM): but it is an option out there Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:44:50 PM): if there are questions as to the types of votes you can raise, please IM me, they are in the formal document I sent out as well Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:45:04 PM): I will suggest the appropiate type of vote to raise in a specific situation Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:45:13 PM): please only do this if you want to propose a vote on an item Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:45:28 PM): if you tell me what you want to achieve I can give you the best option to pursue Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:45:33 PM): any questions? Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:45:37 PM): no Michael Green UCF (10:45:37 PM): nope Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:45:48 PM): there are three items on the agenda Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:46:00 PM): SEDS exec board elections from UIUC Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:46:09 PM): Resume Database from UB Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:46:16 PM): and Rocket project from MIT Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:46:19 PM): we will go in that order Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:46:23 PM): UIUC now has the floor Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:46:32 PM): Hey everyone! Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:47:38 PM): Our chapter would like to propose moving exec board elections to earlier on in the conference. Monday elections are hard for us and probably other schools because its more school that we are missing. Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:48:26 PM): please allow coralie to continue until she asks for questions Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:48:39 PM): I'll ask for questions now Stephanie Herpich WPI (10:49:01 PM): i agree Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (10:49:17 PM): when do you plan on moving them to? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:49:21 PM): Would you prefer a Saturday or a Sunday date? Given that you would want to get to know the canidates first before voting, I would think Sunday would work better than Saturday, but what are you proposing? Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:49:51 PM): Sunday would probably work best, given what you said Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:50:22 PM): Our chapter didn't discuss it too much, but we wanted to see how others felt about it Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:50:41 PM): in that light we can probably move directly to open floor Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:50:48 PM): if coralie doesn't object? Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:51:09 PM): we were thinking sunday, or if the conerence was held thurs-sun instead, that would give equivalent time to get to know the candidates Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:51:13 PM): sure Basant V Sagar MIT (10:51:24 PM): Sunday works best... Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:51:26 PM): floor is open...I will close it in five minutes Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:51:36 PM): unless specifically asked to close it by the chapters Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:51:42 PM): I will also close it if nothing is happening Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:51:42 PM): I agree fully, and would move further that the SEDS specific meetings should be spread throughout the conference, instead of just concentrated on one day John Ferreira FIT (10:51:46 PM): Sunday makes sense. John Ferreira FIT (10:51:59 PM): The whole shift makes more sense. Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (10:52:04 PM): i agree TonioAsura (10:52:08 PM): /signed Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:52:49 PM): I sould say the exact extent of the conference should be left to the hosting chapter, given it is they that have to arrange the thing, but that the CoC requireing the elections to be held on sunday is perfectly reasonable Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (10:52:56 PM): should* Nick Day UBuffalo (10:54:19 PM): yea, it makes sense to get the majority of the chapters involved, while making sure that they get to know the candidates.. Michael Green UCF (10:54:40 PM): this year we ended up hanging out in the MIT "hangar" and watching a movie on sunday night, so it probably wouldn't be too hard to fit it in Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:56:32 PM): open floor is now closed (unless there is objections) are there any items that the council wishes to make an action aupon? Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:56:53 PM): I believe UIUC has something Ryan Caron WPI- observer (10:57:05 PM): whoops - battery low. see you guys later Ryan Caron WPI- observer (10:57:06 PM) has left the room. Coralie Jackman UIUC (10:57:48 PM): I'd like to ask for a vote to create a formal recommendation to the SEDS exec board to move the elections to the sunday of the conference and possibly shift the whole conference back a day if it works for the host school Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:57:56 PM): alright Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:58:12 PM): a formal recommendation to the SEDS executive board is a non-binding suggestion Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:58:30 PM): it can later be followed by a directive if the council feels it is not being appropiately considered Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:58:37 PM): it requires a simple majority to pass Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:58:42 PM): it also requires a second Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:59:06 PM): in order to be voted on in the first place Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:59:11 PM): at this time any chapter can speak Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (10:59:28 PM): i second Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:59:30 PM): alright Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:59:40 PM): please cast your vote Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (10:59:58 PM): chapter name- vote (aye, nay, or abstain) Bruce Davis UColorado (11:00:00 PM) has left the room. John Ferreira FIT (11:00:09 PM): F.I.T.-Aye Stephanie Herpich WPI (11:00:10 PM): wpi - aye TonioAsura (11:00:11 PM): UA SEDS votes aye. Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:00:12 PM): Texas A&M - aye Basant V Sagar MIT (11:00:16 PM): MIT - aye Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:00:17 PM): you have one minute Alexander Roth Purdue (11:00:18 PM): purdue - aye Nick Day UBuffalo (11:00:20 PM): UB - Aye Coralie Jackman UIUC (11:00:20 PM): UIUC-aye Michael Green UCF (11:00:23 PM): SEDS-UCF votes aye Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:01:04 PM): voting is now closed Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:01:11 PM): measure passes by a simple majority Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:01:14 PM): next item Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:01:26 PM): floor is given to UB SEDS to discuss Resume Database Nick Day UBuffalo (11:01:44 PM): hey there, ok so pretty much we had the idea to create a website to host resumes for SEDS-USA members. we feel that this would encourage chapters to pay dues and motivate students to become "full-time" active members. Nick Day UBuffalo (11:02:33 PM): this may already be covered, however by the new SEDS national website, through the option of Space related companies to view posted resumes Nick Day UBuffalo (11:03:52 PM): are there any suggestions as to whether or not we should have a separate webpage for the posted resumes? or should we just go through the SEDS-USA page? go ahead Basant V Sagar MIT (11:04:18 PM): SEDS-USA provides a centralized resource John Ferreira FIT (11:04:55 PM): Well, something I'm wondering. Will other SEDS members be able to look in the SEDS-USA database? John Ferreira FIT (11:05:11 PM): I mean, for alum looking for their jobs or something of that nature. Basant V Sagar MIT (11:05:15 PM): I also suggest ensuring that SEDS members get a priority at the SpaceVision Career Fairs Nick Day UBuffalo (11:05:39 PM): yea, this proposal was thought up prior to the discussion abou the SEDS_USA website, so.. Bruce Davis UColorado (11:05:41 PM) has been invited. Bruce Davis UColorado (11:05:44 PM) has entered the room. Basant V Sagar MIT (11:05:51 PM): like their resumes will be included by default and will be given pref over others Basant V Sagar MIT (11:05:53 PM): cool Nick Day UBuffalo (11:07:48 PM): yea, thats cool, but are there alot of non-SEDS members who attend the spacevision conference/career fairs?? Nick Day UBuffalo (11:07:52 PM): i was at the most recent one at MIT and i was under the assumption that there were mostly, only SEDS members in attendance, correct me if im wrong. Basant V Sagar MIT (11:08:25 PM): there were other students as well... the career fair was open to all MIT students Michael Green UCF (11:08:34 PM): year before at UCF, it was about 90% seds members Nick Day UBuffalo (11:08:52 PM): im not sure about other members viewing the database, that probably wouldnt be a question best directed my way. lol Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:09:08 PM): as for open viewing of the database Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:09:22 PM): what has been suggested by Josh and myself Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:09:36 PM): that the companies are able to search the database Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:10:05 PM): but non-companies would be able to view member procfiles by clicking on them or being linked directly Nick Day UBuffalo (11:10:15 PM): yea, so im not really sure, but i suppose if no one objected, we could give SEDS members an advantage Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:10:16 PM): ex: you could give out the link to a prospective company John Ferreira FIT (11:10:49 PM): Yeah, I realized it was a bit out of place, but I wasn't sure if Josh or someone might have been able to answer. I wanted to use it as a comparision to see if another made sense. John Ferreira FIT (11:10:59 PM): Ok, that makes sense I guess. Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:11:08 PM): due to interest on the subject open floor has been open for five more minutes Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:11:12 PM): rather Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:11:18 PM): I'm opening it for five more minutes Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:11:34 PM): it can be closed by request or by vote Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:11:40 PM): I would suggest avoiding limiting career fairs to only SEDS members Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:11:51 PM): because anyone you might get to go to a SEDS career fair Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:12:02 PM): is more likely to look favorably on the organization Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:12:19 PM): a possible alternative, require an additional fee for non-seds members Basant V Sagar MIT (11:12:30 PM): I only meant giving pref to SEDS members Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:12:35 PM): k Basant V Sagar MIT (11:12:43 PM): yeah... that's okay as well Nick Day UBuffalo (11:12:51 PM): our original intention was to call for a vote to direct the e-board to begin developing a website, but if that already exists in the SEDS-USA page, then, so be it... Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:13:04 PM): it will be up in a week, 2 weeks tops Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:13:10 PM): as of.... this morning Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:13:28 PM): the interfaces exist, it is just a matter of filling in all the various fields Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:13:42 PM): editting Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:13:43 PM): etc... Nick Day UBuffalo (11:14:16 PM): yea, i like the idea of charging a little more to non-seds members, it might promote a somewhat "unintentional" interest and growth in membership by giving that "perk" Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:14:25 PM): yup Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:14:56 PM): and UB SEDS can definetly still stay involved Basant V Sagar MIT (11:15:11 PM): in fact I know some people who joined MIT-SEDS through the career fair Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:15:14 PM): and I'm sure Josh would welcome any suggestions in tweaking and help testing the beta version when it comes online Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:15:53 PM): to clarify a point, the membership database is exclusive to SEDS members/alumni Nick Day UBuffalo (11:17:13 PM): ok, well i dont want to volunteer anyone, but im sure we could find someone interested, i.e. the member who developed our UBSEDS website...i'll see what i can do Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:17:35 PM): k Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:17:45 PM): (I'd advise closing the floor and moving on if there's nothing else) Nick Day UBuffalo (11:18:02 PM): yea, im done Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:18 PM): sorry Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:21 PM): my fault Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:28 PM): floor is closed Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:33 PM): at this point an action can be made Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:35 PM): if not Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:37 PM): then we will move on Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:18:50 PM): one minute will be allowed for a statement of an action Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:19:49 PM): okay Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:19:51 PM): next item Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:19:55 PM): and laslt Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:19:58 PM): as an aside Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:08 PM): thanks everyone for your attention here Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:18 PM): I've worked to trim these down by cutting out chapter updates Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:23 PM): but they still go long Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:32 PM): (which is why we're only having these once a month) Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:40 PM): last item on the agenda Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:44 PM): Rocket Project from MIT Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:20:48 PM): MIT has the floor Basant V Sagar MIT (11:20:58 PM): Hi Guys Basant V Sagar MIT (11:21:39 PM): So the MIT Rocket Team has been working on the SEDS Balloon Launch contest for the last 3 months Basant V Sagar MIT (11:22:01 PM): plus we are collaborating with a team from Cambridge, UK Basant V Sagar MIT (11:22:23 PM): so it's important for us that there's clarity about dates and final rules Basant V Sagar MIT (11:22:56 PM): I welcome the idea of moving the letter of intent deadline to 03/01 Basant V Sagar MIT (11:23:34 PM): but the 1 yr delay would be kinda difficult to handle... Basant V Sagar MIT (11:24:21 PM): what are your views abt this.... plus I'd like to know which are the other teams.... how many are expected to participate Basant V Sagar MIT (11:24:46 PM): open floor TonioAsura (11:25:07 PM): I don't think UA SEDS would have a problem with a minor delay. They've been having issues getting the rocket, which I believe Josh is working to resolve. Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:25:07 PM): On the item of finalized rules, I agree completly that they need to firmed up Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:25:34 PM): I'm hoping to have those done, through the FAA and whatnot by mid february Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:25:49 PM): Currently the only chapters bugging me constantly about the rocket competition are UA and MIT Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:25:57 PM): are any other chapters intending on participating? Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:26:00 PM): Texas A&M's largely dropped work on the rocket TonioAsura (11:26:01 PM): Go UoA. *waves flag* Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:26:04 PM): we're focusing on the conference Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:26:09 PM): at the conference, people were very excited Stephanie Herpich WPI (11:26:27 PM): wpi is going to participate Basant V Sagar MIT (11:26:30 PM): are there any independent teams as well? Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:26:39 PM): at this point its been SEDS exclusive Basant V Sagar MIT (11:26:43 PM): k Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:26:45 PM): but we might want to open it up to external groups Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:27:00 PM): opinions on that? Michael Green UCF (11:27:03 PM): UCF would love too... but we are stretched way too thin with 3 other major projects we are working on Basant V Sagar MIT (11:27:06 PM): yeah... just 2 teams ain't fun Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:27:13 PM): i like the idea of making it open Michael Green UCF (11:27:38 PM): open - but just to student groups Nick Day UBuffalo (11:27:46 PM): i dont believe that UB is participating, while we do have a rocketry "club" within UBSEDS, it was never mentioned at our weekly meetings Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:28:02 PM): you should encourage them to participate Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:28:08 PM): plenty of time between now and october Basant V Sagar MIT (11:28:09 PM): I propose a formal vote on this - opening up the contest to other schools as well Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:28:36 PM): I'd like that defined a bit more Nick Day UBuffalo (11:28:37 PM): well im a rocketry member, so i'll bring it up Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:28:40 PM): might be a good recruiting tool Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:28:49 PM): i would vote aye if it comes to a vote Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:28:52 PM): eg: student run rocket groups Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:28:52 PM): etc.. Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:28:53 PM): but i have to get offline Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:28:56 PM): other commitments Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:28:58 PM): bye Grant Atkinson Texas A&M (11:29:08 PM) has left the room. Basant V Sagar MIT (11:29:13 PM): k Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:29:21 PM): we're near the end of the meeting as well Basant V Sagar MIT (11:29:29 PM): the national execute may consider that in detail Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:29:33 PM): in fact the floor on this item is about to close Darrell Cain - Chapter Affairs (11:29:45 PM): unless an extension is requested Nick Day UBuffalo (11:29:52 PM): i suggest possibly asking AIAA (american institute of aeronautics and astronautics) Basant V Sagar MIT (11:30:03 PM): yeah Stephanie Herpich WPI (11:30:16 PM): for what it's worth, wpi AIAA and SEDS are the same thing... other chapters might be that way too Basant V Sagar MIT (11:30:23 PM): lol Joshua Nelson SEDS USA Rep (11:30:35 PM): can I ask that you give me the latitude to come up with a defined criteria of groups being allowed in? Nick Day UBuffalo (11:30:48 PM): yea, ours interact, but are not the SAME thing Nick Day UBuffalo (11:30:49 PM): so.. Basant V Sagar MIT (11:30:58 PM): Student teams....
