Rogers TV

• Show called “Agenda” is interested in having two representatives of AFU for program about university poll.
• Issue of AFU and corporate media was raised. Group will still discuss media offers on an individual basis as they come up. Group decided to have representatives on the community-access cable television program.
• Christopher and Rob will go Mon. Nov. 24 (time?)

End of Term Party

• The group talked about the possibility of having a screening of the film Tear Gas Holiday at a bar. It was decided that the costs involved (screening rights, renting space, equipment rental) were too much, and that a party at 196 Manning is more realistic as a fund-raiser.
• The party will take place at 196 Manning, but with AFU theme: playing videos in living room and kitchen, DJs in basement. We decided to try to get sound equipment for free, but there may be a gear rental cost of $60.
• The party will take place Sat. December 6th at 10pm.
• The party will be mentioned in pamphlet for Jan. semester.
