       Minutes of the Radio Rensselaer General Meeting of
                        23 September 1984


Meeting called to order at 3:16 by myself.


Department Reports:
   Station Manager:
          We need a new traffic manager.  This is necessary 
       to make sure that traffic gets managed.
          We have a station (ten-watt award for brightness).
          Keys are as always a concern.  We will talk to security 
       and to Lois Ives about them shortly.
   Public Relations:
          "Hi."
          Public relations exists, at least in the form of 
       posters.
   Programming:
          We have a program now.  There were assorted comments 
       about whether it was in Pascal or not.  We do in fact not 
       have any holes in the schedule, even.
          Any comments regarding programming, scheduling, or 
       anything related should be addressed to Lowell or Bernie 
       and placed in their respective mailboxes.
   Business:
          Aaron & John are handling business for now.  We do 
       have money.
   Engineering:
          Noncleared people have been signing in.  This is not a 
       good thing.  Much of it is due to lack of information on 
       the part of the people doing said signing in, so we're not 
       chopping off heads.  Yet.  Make sure you have some sort of 
       clearance before you sign in.  Having been summer cleared 
       does not automatically give you provisional clearance.
   Membership:
          We have 32 members, of which a quorum is here.
   President
          We still have a shortage of officers, which will 
       hopefully be at least partly filled today.
          Hearing no objections, E-Comm meetings will be 
       Wednesday nights at 6:30 henceforth.

Elections:

          The candidates were:
               Doug Lyon . . . . . . . Chief Engineer
               Fozzie White  . . . . . Member at Large
               Snooper . . . . . . . . Business Manager
          Snooper was immediately disqualified, partly because 
        she is not a student.
          Doug Lyon gave a quick and silly speech and was voted 
       in by acclamation.
          Fozzie didn't view it necessary to give a speech but 
       instead answered questions.  Since most of them were 
       silly, this also was quick.  Acclamation failed, so a 
       hand-count vote was conducted and Fozzie was elected by a 
       vote of 12-2-2.

Congratulations (& sympathies) to the newly elected officers!
Activities Fair:
          THROB was responsible for it, but he wasn't there.  
      Overall, it went.
Work Parties:
          To organize one or for anything regarding them, talk to 
      Doug Lyon.  We don't have too many of them scheduled 
      because there isn't much we need done that a work party 
      would help with.  A list of things to get done would help, 
      though.  Which brings us to:
Job List:
          A section of the bulletin boards and a stupid form were 
      suggestions that were brought up to deal with this concept.  
      Doug Lyon suggested that a typed list would do just fine.  
      Further discussion to follow at the next E-Comm meeting.
McNeil Room Parties:
          October 26 we will running a dance party in the McNeil 
      Room with UPAC.  Not in the McNeil Room, but somewhat 
      related, we will be running an airband contest on November 
      17, possibly in the Commons.
Old Business:
      None
New Business:
      None
Membership:
          The following people were accepted as meeting the re
      quirements for membership and became members at the end of 
      the meeting:
                    Kathleen Brinnitzer
                    Theresa Schmidt
                    David Frey


Due to a bad cold, my voice was rapidly disappearing, and I 
turned the chair over to R. Gary Cutbill.

Format stuff:
         There will be a meeting to discuss the suggestions for 
      the substance and spirit of format.  This meeting will be 
      held on October 3 at 8 PM.  Hopefully it will produce a 
      single, unified suggestion which can be presented to the 
      general membership at the general meeting which will be 
      held on October 14 at noon.
          Anyone with an idea or a position should write it up 
      and post it on the E-Comm section of the bulletin board 
      where all interested parties can and should read it.  Keep
      ing at least one copy of it is recommended in case we 
      encounter a bulletin board event horizon or some other 
      calamity.

                              Do as I say, not as I do, and:
          
                              Be well.




                              Lowell Gilbert, President
