Congratulations everyone! We’ve finally passed the necessary amendments to the Constitution! Big thanks to everyone that contributed to the voting process – this Constitution will make Pride a stronger club in its sophmore year! For those who delete their emails regularly and fancy having another read, a copy of the amended document will be posted shortly on this website in the ‘Formal Stuff’ section.
O’Week is coming up shortly, and this is Pride’s best chance to recruit new members, engage with the student community and generally have a blast whilst promoting ourselves and the support network we offer to all Adelaide GLBTI students. Pride will have a stall up on Hughes Plaza from 23rd to the 26th of February between 9:30am and 4pm, and I need one board member on the stall at all times! I’ll be there for a good part of it but I need your help! So email me at adelaideuniversitypride@hotmail.com with what days and times your available to help out. Members who aren’t on the board but are willing to help out are also welcome (and will be greatly appreciated!)
Big congrats to Peter Reeve, a Pride member who has been appointed the Student Representative Council’s Queer Officer for 2009. Peter will be running campaigns on behalf of all GLBTI students at Adelaide Uni with the aim of increasing visiblity and awareness of queer issues. If you have any great ideas (or even want to say hi!) email Peter on peter.reeve@student.adelaide.edu.au.
The next notice is of the forthcoming AGM (Annual General Meeting) in which a new board will be elected. This will be held on Wednesday March 4 at 4pm in the Clubs Association office (Lady Symon building, just off the Cloisters). An email will be sent out shortly to all paying members asking for nominations – for those who are still continuing on in Pride for 2009, please take note of the board positions and start to consider who you wish to fill these positions; be that yourself or a friend.
Natty O
(Acting President)
