Administrative Affairs

  • jaysa: haven't gotten the OK on the bake-sale yet, will follow-up
  • yehchanyoo: proposal on the plan for the bake sale from @eariespraud -- wanted discussion on this plan during BoD
  • Plan: After approval from ASUC and BoD, she will do a preliminary round of baking sales in which she will buy and bake one batch of baked goods at her own cost
    • bryli: should reimburse her for every batch, not just the second round of batches
    • jaysa: should be fine otherwise
  • If the preliminary round of bake sales is found to be profitable, we will go for the second round of bake sales in which OCF will reimburse her for the costs
