Editor's Notes
- Ask if there is anyone new. Only read if there are new people.
- Emphasize that you MUST be emailed. And only email. People should check their exam schedules NOW and tell you if they will miss anything this semester.
- Only if new members are there
- Thank those who have signed up! Members will receive their family assignment before the next meeting
- Do a quick show of hands for 3/11
- We don’t get paid until we have at least $20. With the current deal we only need 7 people to sign up to get our first check!
- There were empty spots this week! I will take unfilled spots into consideration when you beg for more PR points at the end of the semester.
- If we don’t get more people to sign up we will have to cancel.
- Juri – emphasize that they need to bring their own stuff and that you are a facilitator, not a teacherDana – explain study groups again.
- Send suggestions! Someone expressed discontent about the PHR room and I got it changed. Tell me your ideas and I’ll consider them!
