  • Uber +/Δ

    • +

      • Lots of people

      • Uber people afterwards were pretty cool.

    • Δ

      • Speaker was poor :(

      • People just left. Speaker wasn’t engaging; lackluster.

    • The speaker was poor. Do we bring that up to Uber?

      • Only if Uber asks for feedback…

      • Don’t just tell them straight in their face that it was boring, but if they ask us, then we can tell them that it needs to be more engaging.

  • Blizzard +/Δ

    • +

      • Speaker was good

      • Attendance was great!

    • Δ

      • 1 slice enforcement...

  • LAN Party +/Δ

    • +

    • Δ

      • Went through all the email chains; no discussion that the event starts at 8.

      • We think they messed up the time, then tried to cover for it by saying that it started at 8? But HKN also told their members that it started at 8.

      • Massive miscommunication on their side.

      • There was another event going on at the same time for HKN.

    • Be explicit about asking for booking time vs start time?

    • Board game night could pull more people?

      • But LAN party has been a tradition between HKN and CSUA…

      • Maybe we could change it to “Game night!” instead of only LAN party

  • Nerdwallet +/Δ

    • +

      • Food was good.
