Our mailbox is in the MathSoc office. It should be checked on a regular basis. There are several people that many exec will need contact information for. Their contact info follows and should be updated when these people change! Donna Schell: We use her to book most rooms in the MC or elsewhere on campus. She can generally book any lecture hall. If she can't do it, she can tell you who can! She can be reached at dschell@uwaterloo.ca or at extension 2207. Vera Korody: ICR secretary. Should we wish to use the DC fishbowl for anything we can contact her. She may require us to get the permission of a ICR director to use it. Currently the friendly director is Vic DiCiccio at vicd@uwaterloo.ca. I am including the text of an email I sent and the response from Vic at the end of this segment. It is easiest to talk to her directly at the ICR reception area beside the fishbowl in DC, however she can also be e-mailed at vkorody@uwaterloo.ca or called at ext. 2042. MathSoc: It is often smart to have executive in MathSoc who are friendly with the CSC. To that end it is helpful to keep up with the MathSoc exec and attend MathSoc events. Their office is directly across the always closed door from ours. The president and VPF are particularily helpful, in case we go a little over budget for any event they can approve funding up to $100 extra by themselves. They can be reached at president@mathsoc.uwaterloo.ca and VPF@mathsoc.uwaterloo.ca. They also have a projector that we can borrow from time to time. AV stuff should be handled through AV services at extension 3033. Keys for AV stuff can be obtained at E2 1309. Note that they will charge you $80 if you intend to use a projector (and that's non-refundable - apparently bulbs are expensive and need to be replaced often). The E-mail I sent to Vic: Hi, The Computer Science Club is interested in booking DC 1301 (The Fishbowl) for a student-prof mixer on the afternoon Monday, October 17. We were told that it would require the permission of someone higher up in ICR since we're a student club. We considered asking our faculty advisor, Prabhakar Ragde, to book it on our behalf, but that would require him to be present for the entire event and we don't want to impose on him to that extent unless we have to. We are hoping to get your permission to book it since our primary purpose is to remove alcohol from the picture, to get it away from the "pints" mentallity and focus it more towards the frosh. Thanks for your consideration. Tim Loach CSC President And his Response: Hi Timothy, Sure, I would definitely approve this. Have you been turned down by others? But you need to email Vera Korody to book the room, because it might be booked, and you need to get her rules about moving chairs, etc. I'll copy her on this email. BTW, does the CSC know that Mike Lazaridis is coming to Fed Hall on Oct 3 to explain why RIM is a cool place to work, and that there are still challenges there to interest co-ops and grads. We could use your help in getting the word out. You've probably seen the posters. Best, Vic
