Hi guys! We've got sig meetings this week, and a LAN party in the near future (two weeks, be there and enjoy the end of school).

Here's what we've got going on this week:

1. SIG Code [April 21, 2014 @ 4PM in SELE 2268B (CS Tunnel)]
2. SIG SysAdmin [April 22, 2014 @ 5:15PM in SELE 2264 (IT Lab)] [Rescheduled]
   
3. SIG SysAdmin [April 23, 2014 @ 4PM in SELE 2264 (IT Lab)]
4. SIG Game [April 23, 2014 @ 5PM in SELE 2254 (CS Lab)] 
5. LUG Web [April 25, 2014 @ 3PM in SELE 2260 (CS Lounge)]
6. SIG Build [April 25, 2014 @ 5:30PM in SELE 2264 (IT Lab)]

Three main points were iterated at this meeting, as the old officers unofficially welcomed in the new officers. They are as follows.

1. Philosophy - "The four of you [officers] are a team now."
2. Student organization registration needs to be done NEXT WEEK with Theys.
3. A budget should be finished with Sloan by the end of May. This means the officers need to create a budget, it needs to get approved by Theys, and then it needs to get approved by Sloan, in that order before summer begins.

The other importants things discussed were:

• Officers need to file for ACM membership.
• The password for the safe was given to the officers.
• ACM would benefit from focusing on internal affairs, those being tutoring meeting attendance, and regulars at the office
• Sean said "President talks to members, students faculty, VP talks to people outside the university to come in."
• We are looking for a ACM member to serve as a new representative to ENGR 100 next semester, as well as a representative to engineering counsel.
• Previous officers and new officers will have a formal lunch meeting with Theys sometime next week.

Give a big round of applause to these people who where elected to their respective positions for the ACM 2014-2015 elected term!
