Promotional Materials
Advertise our club much more starting with posters outside the office
Emphasize the arcade cabinet!
Get more posters on the walls of the office
Perhaps have an event on Facebook where members give input as to what posters we put up
Use some points system to reward members for being active
Test Collection
Ryan brought up that test collection is an ethical issue
Gives the impression of “least work possible”
Keeping a database of study guides may be more ethical
Will vote next week when Austen is present

Grade Wrapup
Austen, Ryan, and Nathan talked last week to 3 6
th
grade classes about computer science
Teacher wanted ACM to do another presentation next year in the Fall
Ryan feels that the ACM should continue to do because promoting computer science is one of the core things we should do
Action: add notes to presentation so we know what is going on when we look at it in the future (like code comments!)
