Minutes from the General Body Meeting
Below are Phil's minutes from last week's general body meeting.
FSA Minutes 9/18/07
Hello Kiddos,
Location: Charles Common MPR
Attendees: All the cool kids!
At this meeting we briefly covered some of the major FSA events for the upcoming year, which all either involve eating food, or eating food while dancing on sticks. Niiiiiccee!
Culture Show/ Filipino Cultural Night: For the time being it is unknown whether or not Culture Show will be in the fall or the spring. However, we are still gearing up to hold practices this semester, starting the week of 9/30. If culture show doesn't pop off this semester, Filipino Cultural Night will! If Culture Show does happen in the fall, FCN will be in the spring. We are once again performing a Tinkling/Singkil sequence. We are in the planning steps but apparently a hip-hop twist on the traditional dances is where we might be headed.
Inter Asian Council: A tentative performance for their art show. Either 10/11 or 10/15. Ask Nian.
September 28th- FSA night out! We will be dining at a Filipino Restaurant. Festivities start at 7, but be on the lookout for updates. The night is young!
Culture Block Party- This will be October 5t, and we will be having fishballs. Great Success!!!
Also, we briefly discussed the Filipino Documentary Screening in Spring.
The following section is lazily stolen from Kate's wonderful notes from the 9/7 Officer Meeting
Documentary Showing
* Sometime in February or March
* Ramona Diaz, a filmmaker who produced a documentary on Imelda Marcos, is in the finishing stages of a documentary about Filipino teachers in the Baltimore public school system.
* We're considering holding a screening her documentary on campus (perhaps in a lecture room - but not the auditorium - in Hodson, or one of the rooms in Mattin) with a question-and-answer session afterwards.
* The Inter-Asian Council (IAC) is looking for cultural documentaries and movies from the different Asian student organizations.
* Nian can make arrangements for the documentary screening through the IAC.
* Jeremy will e-mail an article about the documentary published in the Urbanite; FSA members can read it and tell him afterwards whether they're interested in screening Ms. Diaz's documentary. If there's enough interest, he'll try to contact Ms. Diaz.
See you guys at the next event!
