competition is over.

14. Review of 2011 Schedule
Duration: too long, too short, just right?
Workshops: too many, too few, just right?
10pm rooftop events: too early, too late, just right?
6:30pm courtyard events: too early, too late, just right?
Excursions: too early? too long? just right?
(14) What else should we change for 2012?

16. Thoughts on schedule/workshops
Try workshops at 9pm next year.
Publicity should be way better
• One person never even heard about them and
would have like to have attended.
Mid-day events (sustainability meetings on
campus) were difficult to attend.
(16)

17. Points System Review
In 2011:
• Commitments: 5 points
• Videos: 10 points
• Workshops: 20 points
• Excursions: 30 points
• Creative: 0 – 50 points
Were these the right number of points?
Do you wish some things were worth more/less?
• Answers: More points for
workshops/excursions would increase
participation.

18. Video Production Team
Tyneski Quintel is working this semester on
putting together a 30 second promotional video
for the 2012 Kukui Cup.
She is seeking volunteers to help with:
• Appearing in the video
• Helping write the video
• Helping edit the video
(18)

19. Promotional Video Concept
Initial shots:
• Girls getting ready in the morning for school with
wasteful energy drainage of straighteners, blow
driers, etc...
• Girls getting ready to go out at night pumping
music, lights, mirrors w/ lights, hair straighteners, q-
tip/tp waste etc....
• Boys gaming together in one room side-by-side TVs
with multiple game consoles and wires
everywhere, microwave going in background, etc...
Leads to ->
• Sounds of electronics winding down
• Power shortage blackout
• Students being oblivious, “What happened?”
Kukui Cup transition to logo and “Lights off Game on”

20. Feedback on video
Everyone was willing to participate.

21. Final Thoughts
We want the "face" of the Kukui Cup to be
students from the Organizing Committee, not
"old people" like professors and grad students.
We believe events like "Play at the Cafe" and
other outreach/engagement activities will work
much better if students are doing the talking.
Finally, you, the 2011 players, understand the
Kukui Cup better than we do! (You have played
it, we haven't!)

22. Next Meeting
Next meeting will be early March.
We will send out a Doodle to figure out the best
time to meet for everyone.
Food: Selection of Subway Sandwiches.
