Agenda & Proceedings:

Academic

  • QBA/McGill Meeting: Next week Becky and Naomi will be meeting with the QBA executives and McGill Music admin as just a general meeting.


Finance

  • Grilled Cheese Sale: We got approval from the building director. Gill will be posting a doodle so we can sign up for times to work. Tanya also wants to volunteer.


Professional Development

  • Alain Cazes and Jonathan Dagenais: Jonathan is not going to be paid until the end of March. He filled out a form from McGill and it has to be processed. Alain shared the conducting videos with his conducting classes without getting the permission of the conductors. Alain has taken the videos down and has apologized. Kathleen will also be sending out an apology email. Pictures are up on our website. There were 34 people in attendance, not including the wind symphony.

  • Steve Dubinsky: Kathleen spoke to him at QBA Honour Band. He thinks that February 27 is the best for him, however this is a MGSO concert evening. Kathleen suggested the Thursday, March 13 after reading week but is waiting to hear back from him. He’s not making it specific for woodwind, it’s just going to be a general emergency repair workshop.


Social

  • Young Alumni Panel: Chris emailed MGSS about the 8th Floor, but they need it all day. Becky accidentally gave Rob Couture the wrong day, so he’s not sure if he can skype on March 21. We are going to see if we can book the east lounge (the room next to Pollack). Chris will email the building director. Otherwise we will have it in the library and then go elsewhere for drinks.

  • Drum Circle: Heather is going to look at the smaller C30X rooms, because 310 and 304 are always booked. This should be okay for the first few times, and then we can look into maybe booking Clara if it gets larger.


Reports

  • EdUS Report: Naomi is going to Costco with some other execs to buy cans for the food drive with the jars of money they have. Charity Week is this week. Today was thrift shop. It’s probably going to become an annual thing. EdUS elections are starting on Monday. 4 a 7 is tomorrow as usual, but the proceeds are going to the Breakfast Club.


General

  • Constitution: Thanks to the subcommittee: Becky, Naomi, Gill, Wes, and Tanya Nielsen (member at large). We went over and approved the constitution with Joanna and Colin.

  • Next Meeting: Normal time (17:30), normal place (A607)


Adjournment: Chris motions to close the meeting at 17:46, David seconds
