MEETING RECAP

Thank you to those of you who showed up for the UDFL meeting. We are still meeting, wrapping up this semester and preparing for the next.

UDFL will be meeting these next 3 Monday's at 5pm (Nov 27th, Dec 4th, Dec 11th), before adjourning for finals/winter break. At that last meeting on Dec 11th, I will be stepping down as President, since I am going to Washington DC in January. At that time, Shannon will take over, and we will hold elections for Vice President and any other exec board openings should they arise.

Happening Now:

*Fundraising
-we will be having a fundraising party at the end of finals week
-next semester we will be having a PCR Party, where guests are encouraged to donate a FREE $50 to UDFL through Minnesota's public financing system

*Recruitment
-we want to build our base for 2008
-this means reaching out to every student, especially underclassman
-also, we are going to setup an ongoing Dorm Capt system that will be used for general UDFL news notices and not just in election years.

*Organization
-We are going to change our meetings a little bit and add committees, something we've had in past years

Likely Committees:
-Volunteer (for non-political community service)
-Social (for fun stuff)
-Recruitment
-Fundraising

*New Online
-Treasurer David Liebow is working to get us our own website because the old one is out of style. We will likely be getting udfl.org in the coming weeks.

*TShirts
-Outreach Chair Clare Nelson is working on getting us TShirts, something we didn't get last year. Let her know if you have any ideas or design suggestions: nels2834@umn.edu

*Facebook
-CLICK HERE to join our new Facebook group. It's a great way to stay informed on all the happenings of UDFL.
