A big thanks to everyone that showed up to video game night, we had a record breaking attendance of over 50 people and also set a record for collected donations! I am happy to say that we are well on our way to reaching or even surpassing our goal of raising $1000 for Child’s Play by December! We were overwhelmed by how many of you showed up and are excited about new possible events we can throw now that we have such an active membership!
On a more solemn note, some of you may have heard that some high school students on campus for the Jenks-Union football game stole a backpack of Wii controllers and games during the event. If you know anything about this please e-mail lanbrew@utulsa.edu. We are currently looking into different ways to prevent this from occurring ever again (other than avoiding scheduling an event the same night that hundreds of strangers will be on campus). In addition, some minor things were left at LaFortune. If you are
missing anything please send an e-mail with a description of the item and we will get it returned to you as soon as possible.
Speaking of membership, we encourage everyone to attend our first meeting of the semester this Saturday, September 15, at 1pm in LaFortune. We will talk about future events that are in the works as well as to get some feedback on the video game night. I know a lot of you have suggestions for games to play, and now that we’ll have everyone together we can vote on which ones to play! Also at this meeting, we will be holding officer elections for this school year - normally these are held in the Spring but they were delayed since SA allocations were pushed back from May to September. The offices are President, Vice President, Public Relations Officer, Treasurer and Event Coordinator. More information about these positions is on the “About LanBrew” page. Please send an e-mail to lanbrew@utulsa.edu if you are interested in running for an office(s) or want to hear more about the positions.
