Ammended Items from Early Weeks, President:

Amendments to minutes. 1-3 members can present for the Diversity Training. Also, a slide show presenting work submitted by club members can be shown as they speak. The presentation will highlight our photo club and its activities on and off campus.


Jen's idea for our gallery show was to have the fashion club model outside the shop and create curiosity about our show. They would also invite fashion designers etcetera to come to the gallery. They would hopefully buy some art or hire us for other projects. We would also have some musicians perform to add to the ambiance.
