[ASA-Official] post-General Body Meeting announcements

[Keone Hon]

Dear Student Group Officers:


Thank you for attending the General Body Meeting on Monday.  As
promised, the slides from the meeting are on the web at
http://web.mit.edu/asa/about/minutes/GBMfa08.pdf, and the minutes are
available at http://web.mit.edu/asa/about/minutes/2008-11-17-gbm.txt.

In particular, we voted to approve a set of changes to the ASA
Operating Guidelines which would open up recognition to more student
groups by creating a new class of non-funded student but otherwise
official groups.  You can read more about the approved proposal at
http://web.mit.edu/asa/privileges/GroupRecognition.pdf.  Thank you for
all of your input during the meeting, and continue to voice your
feedback by talking to us or by e-mailing us at asa-exec at mit.edu.

We also elected two new members of the ASA Executive Board.  Please
welcome Leonid Chindelevitch and Dylon Rockwell, who will serve as
Members-at-Large for the rest of the year.


Lastly, we have two announcements from CAC:
1. Events Fair: Mon. Nov 24 from 11:30 am - 1:30 pm in W11 (see first
forwarded message below)
2. Opening of the CAC reservation books (for events scheduled from

2008 at 8 am (see second forwarded message below)
