1. Those wishing to serve on the executive committee next semester should contact President Stephanie Huey ([log in to unmask]), or any exec member, for information about meeting times and responsibilities. Being on exec is not a huge devotion of time resources, but at the same time, you need to be reliable and responsible with what you do take on. 2. Build update: the house will be weatherproofed before semester break. Several of our partner organizations have been to the build site this semester, but next semester we will be having member build days. The first member build date is February 12. 3. Active members are eligible to participate in member builds; they are members who have attended at least 3 meetings and participated in at least one fundraiser. If you have questions about your status, contact Membership/Education Chair Kirtan Nautiyal, [log in to unmask] 4. Sadly, the hayride was canceled, and it's too late in the semester to try to reschedule. If you have other ideas for Habi-social events, contact Social Chair Josh Bradt, [log in to unmask] 5. This weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) we will be giftwrapping at Border's. We sit at a table and wrap people's gifts, who then donate money to us because they will feel guilty if they don't. (Or they don't, and feel guilty; or don't, and are heartless.) The shifts are 2 hours and I'm not sure if there are still any open. To find out/help, email VP Emily Comstock, [log in to unmask] 6. If you ordered one of our Habitat T-shirts, they're here! You should get it. Also, if you haven't paid, you should do that. Contact pretty much any exec member, I'd say. 7. Festival of Giving tickets--if you sold them (or didn't sell them, as the case may be =), and you still haven't returned your money (or leftover tickets), contact me, Secretary Clint Givens, [log in to unmask] 8. Our next member meeting is January 25th. Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Blessed Ramadan, Joyous Winter Solstice, good luck on finals, see you next year! Clint Givens Secretary
