Cam clausJamis PerrottaSean strauss

Start: 7:43 pm

Reports

President: convention in august. Need to figure out which actives are going. National met w/ the house and some brothers were suspended and other sanctions put on the House. Letter was read in the meeting. 

VP : alumni bbq. Chef Brian said that we would work the alumni bbq and bring an assistant to help clean up and would charge $250. The budget for the Alumni BBQ is noted as $250, which is what the food cost at the last BBQ. I’ll reach out to Stevens on when/how we can access the House. There is no House cooler for porch beers. Will discuss the Canoe Trip next meeting. 

Treasurer: not present, no report

Secretary: 

My report:

Email project- 

1. Identified the data pull we need from current email system to proceed with the migration

2. Google announced a change of plans which may make this migration unnecessary, need to review it in more detail

Chapter advisor: If anyone wants to talk about the recent actions from National, feel free to reach out to talk to Andy about it. 

Account exec: not here, no report

Active President – Had an EC meeting today outcome is that an the active members will be emailed regarding sanctions; everyone must do diversity/equity training by September. EC had decided that everyone needs to sign the TX risk management policy from national, and social rights will be taken away until everyone reviews and signs them. Housing lottery will be done next week w/o the dis-associated Brothers who may/will be appealing. President/VP- wants to be up to vote, even though he could keep his appointment and install a VP of his choosing. Will do a virtual election for president. 

National Convention 4-7th of august. Looking to see how many brothers can go with the current budget and want to have a good showing since we didn’t have much for President’s Academy. If there’s a shortfall between number of Brothers who want to go and the budget, the Alumni Association or individual Alumni can look to bridge that gap. Want a number of motivated Brothers to go and get jazzed up!

Active treasurer: Not here, no report

Active houseman: Not here, no report

No old business: none 

New business: 

Andy: Motion to increase current Alumni BBQ budget from $250  want to increase to, but not to exceed $500
Sean S:  2nds, Passes

Announcements: 

Sean: congrats to Brian S. on being Interim president.

  • I will gauge interest in canoe trip and get back to TXAS

  • Reimbursed all brothers for Ball since it will not be held.
  • We have a new VP, so Suraj, Bryce, and Brian Smith (new VP) will be added as signatory for checks

Active Houseman (Dennis Vink 1455):

I’m the new houseman, jobs are being done well and people are doing a good job setting an example. New pledge class doing a great job and taking initiative. Want to email school with a few items before end of semester, including windows that need replacement, theres a leak in the kitchen, corrosion near work room. We built a garden behind the house. City of hoboken pays for compost, we bring it to Elysian Park. To date we have composted 230lb, over 55 gallons. We are tracking how much money and CO2 we are saving by composting this over just landfill. Been getting other greek orgs to compost, want to be the ambassadors for the school as well. Maintenance projects are creating and sustaining a new look for the house. Will email photos. We organized an Earth Day cleanup, cleaned up CPT, Elysian Park, we had hoboken residents helping too. Collected over 50lb of garbage.

Old Business

1250 Motion to untable actives shared storage, passes

Andrew Kaminsky: Researched solutions for digital storage solution, two main approaches to consider are main master account, or a service that allows accounts through that service. I have 4 options that are the best, with pricing and pros and cons. Most options have some storage minimum, around 200GB.

  1. Google Drive is an option, we currently use 86 GB. Expensive per user
  2. iDrive – $75 first year, $150 subsequent. Admin account can create unlimited accounts. Has backups.
  3. Keycloud – has a different pricing model – one time payment $175 for 500GB. Single Admin account that shares out to other accounts
  4. DigitalOcean – $5/mo, 250GB, requires us to build a front end

Γ1408 Motion to table, passes

Start: 7:40 pm

End: 8:25 pm

motion to dispense: me, akash passes

Pres: Not present, provided report via email:

  • Millenio was last weekend, great to see everyone who played! House seemed to be in good shape
  • Where do we stand on getting to keg cooler reconnected? Should be a priority for the pending tasks in the house. 
  • what’s the status of moving alumni meetings back to house? Should we consider this for next month if permitted?

VP : logged into website, can start updating and post alumni meeting minutes, learning the specifics

Treasurer: not present, no report

Secretary: no report, not present

Chapter advisor: School was virtual for first 2 weeks due to omicron, Presidents academy and Rising stars were also virtual.

Meeting with Ken, New Greek coordinator and Bryce to dicuss semester going forwards. Was very positive and Ken addressed concerns about Res life anc contractors entering house without prior notice

Account exec: Concerns about cook tax status.

Active Pres: in person classes start 1/31, RM in person on 2/1. Bid night 2/11. Chef is returning for this semester as a contractor

Active Treasurer – house budget will be voted on at RM

Active house man: House is clean, jobs start Monday

No old bus:

New bus: motion to discuss TX mail and domain issues 1251, 1112 (passes)

The G Suite legacy free edition will no longer be available beginning July 1, 2022. Contact your account team to discuss how to move to a Google Workspace subscription with limited time discount options.

If you take no action by May 1, 2022, Google will begin transitioning your organization seamlessly to a new Google Workspace subscription. The new subscription will be based on what you currently use with your G Suite legacy free edition.

Enter your billing information to avoid account suspension by July 1, 2022.

How tx-gamma.org is hosted:

  • DreamHost:
    • Static Assets: HTML, JS, PHP (WordPress)
    • Database: MySQL (for WordPress)
    • DNS Records for static content point to DreamHost.
  • Google G Suite
    • DNS MX Records (which allows IP’s to manage email for a domain)

DreamHost will handle MX Records (and serve email) for us for free (we pay about $120/year in web hosting).  This would be best served purely as an email forwarder though since the interface is terrible and storage limits are low (sub-1GB for email).  I don’t think we will find a competitive service to free gmail/stevens hosted email without the cost being very high, but it’s worth exploring alternatives even reviewing costs.

What we need:

  • Ways to manage logical groups of brothers and have a way to email them consistently.
    • Slack won’t work for older brothers who rely on email (and until recently physical mail).  Can slack fire off emails per-posting?  If so it might work
    • Ability for this to be administered by various brothers
    • Ability to group brothers by Actives, Alumni, Committees, EC, anything else
  • Consideration for other productivity tools that G Suite provided:
    • That could be group calendars, documents, etc
    • I think only actives use this so Slack could be an alternative in this space.

Committee to be formed:

Derrek

Andrew Johnson 1426

Alumni Meeting Minutes: 04/29/2019

Attendance: 1112, 1192 , 1199, 1250, 1315, 1218, 1273

Start : 7:41pm

1192: Motion to read previous meetings: passes

1192: Motion to accept minutes as read: passes

Pres Report: Emailed Nielson Friday, Follow up phone call this week regarding Door (hopefully done by alumni Weekend). Spoke to Nielson Regarding Accreditation, no issues expected. W event this Thursday (128 people expected).

 

VP Report: Surprised reelection! Canoe Trip July 12th -July 14th. Forgot how much, will follow up. June Almni BBQ , will follow up if supplies are coordinated (cooler). Wants to revamp Schnitzel, start mugbreaking and combine events perhaps (too far off to care too much).

 

Treasurer Report: Our accountant did not file tax form needed for past 2 years, needed to fax to Carl. Owe IRS $200. (990T) Checking Account ( dual signature w/

Secretary Report: Will update the website, meeting notes. Will work with Matt to set up Checking.

Chapter Advisor: initiation , family formal, Work weekend, administrational problems seem to have been waning, supporting treasurer in getting meal plan and fall housing fixed and complete. Open question regarding summer housing, active pres will further comment. House looked great after work weekend, attended family formal and house looked great. Parents were having a great time.

Account Exec: Last month spoke about issues, got majority of money but there was still a deficit. Billed for physical plant taking out trash, didn’t do it, slow to reimburse. There is still enough money in account to cover rental tables and rest of semester. Reg for meal plans open, didn’t add option 4 for double parlor. Hoping to be liberal with amounts, let figure out this week, so we can submit accurate billing. Everyone who owes is on payment plan. Active taxes are in order, due in August.

Committees: GPAS? All good.

Events: Alumni BBQ + Canoe Trip -> Pete will be in charge ( I guess)

Active Pres: Initiated 10 brothers. Looking to replace some ritual stuffs, not the best shape. Work weekend went off without a hitch, one new thing with great results, Saturday morning took brothers to volunteer 8am and got philanthropy done. Pledge project was difficult to deal with considering the shortened process.

1112: reminder to put out big brothers at pinning for guidance.

1250: any restrictions on bigs from national?

1112: nope, big up front provides better guidance. Significant larger number of famils, undergrads are important, but maybe think about easing responsibilities of alumni famils.

 

Incidents outside the house. Ass mem was walking back to car, and was harassed. Actives tried calling police and stop fight. Kid ran away, and actives gave reports. Meetings will continue about this and we will be kept up to date.

Some bylaws need to be updated, and fines will be billed to Omega Phi.

1112: advised to not eliminate innate bylaws, even if seem clunky.

Gave accreditation report, copied a lot from national, worked well. Owned up to problems, presented Solution, and got ahead of questions. Malcolm said great things about us (especially community service)

1112: Need to make sure the house gets filled.

Active Pres: On it , serious thing. Need to fill 50% house to avoid renovations, and keep house open this summer. If another house doesn’t fill up, maybe relocate other frats here.

1192: Alumni need the house anyway.

 

Active Treasurer: Everyone on payment plan. Lotsa Cash which is good. Budget helper looked at family formal, $2200 not including rentals. Food was good, but cold, Chicken saved on budget. Active quickbooks is fine, need to be cleaned up from former treasurers. BVA isn’t quite up to date, send updated one to TXAS. Will be content to start building budget next few weeks, gets lonely when he does it himself. Headcount for ball is not great, we are in big room. (currently $4k deficit). Will email alumni right now to attempt to pressure people into coming.

Active Houseman: not in attendance. Issues with fire dept in terms of inspections. Pick one to fail randomly (most recently blue room). All about the beds.

Old Business: None

New Business: None

Announcements: BB Was in town, Andre got a new job, Egebo got married, Pete will be moving.

1192: Motion to close 1112: second

Closed 9:12pm

1192: Motion to read previous meetings: passes

1192: Motion to accept minutes as read: passes

Pres Report: Meeting with Neilson, door will get fixed over break, met again 10 days ago and was promised updated time line. No response yet. Door is still broken. Engaged Frank about school check. Did get the check, and received suggestions on how to get it quicker in the future.

 

VP Report: Not in Attendance

 

Treasurer Report: Year-end reports for next meeting. He owes accountant money, will pay him. Might look for new accountant because prior one was too expensive. Can’t be that hard might do it himself.

1192: did we pay out treasurer’s stipend?

1250: I don’t think we ever wrote a check for PJ, did we open checking account?

1250: No will do because current account is no interest.

1315: will look into connecting checking account to investment account

 

Secretary Report: No report

Chapter Advisor: Stopped by a few times over the break, it was clean so kudos. The front door doesn’t lock anymore, so…Rising stars happened, will let Dan speak about in his report. NDLA is different format and looking forward to working with new EC

1394: when we weren’t here we chained the door, we felt fine when we were there.

1112: Nice, house should fix the outside door

Account Exec: Received the Check, light $10k. Due to discrepancy for people that didn’t sign up online for meal plan or chose parlor. Will bill them, and it’s not good but going forward need to check on meal plan sign ups at beginning. Next month Conor and him will bring a BVA from last year and sit down, completed signatures.

Xxxx: 12 brothers didn’t pay full meal plan.

1192: can we bill through omega5 and then add 5%?

Xxxx: yes, but let’s do it through the school preferably, confident things will work out. Trying to get check in Feb.

1250: Will discuss Stipend next meeting. Check on Theresa’s revised W2. Please pay workers comp insurance.

Active Pres: Went to risings stars and presidents academy. NDLA Feb 24th and Feb 28th.Asking for us to send 4 , they pay for all expenses ($575 total package). Thinking Matt, mem ed, mem ed for following semester, and recruit. Treasurer track wouldn’t get as much out of it, and committing to more people is expensive. Change to accreditation, currently all true men from inspection. Now all true men through accreditation every year, have to take accreditation very seriously even though we’re doing well. Must remain above 3.0 gpa we are around 3.4 . Getting inspected Feb 4th, school is aware and willing to help ( clean up crew / Mock inspection group). Had a lot of trash over winter break, community is giving us a hard time, communicated to the crew who picks up trash. received a millenio noise complaint, will give them his number so that it can be communicated. President of UCLA spoke about risk management, talked about new alcohol regulations. Speak with sororities to communicate risk concerns/solutions. Spoke about adjusting bylaws to command adherence to new alcohol regulations. New risk committee ( pres, mem ed, social chair). IFC is getting push back on the idea of Bid night. Education fund foundation money, 1112 will follow up.

1250: got dinged for ritual in past, anything we can do?

1394: can send in accreditation beforehand to get it checked before actual report, and we can see last years report. Invited rising star attendees to speak

John: Learned a lot, was more than he thought he would be. Enjoyed learning through other chapters experiences .

Matt: Positive experience, networking and connections was beneficial. Appreciates Alumni!

Yyyy: met gamma mu , and would like to do some events with them. Invited to national advisory panel.

1394: voting to be put up to the vote to be debrothered due to owe over $1,000.

1112: Clarified it’s a permanent Suspension, could use financial suspension which requires no vote.

1394: Would rather actual vote on a permanent suspension for the sociopolitical portrayal.

1250 & 1112 cautioned to be tactful

Active Treasurer: Got a house card with his name on it. Mailed check to the accountant for the house. Has over $10k imbalance (AR) from meal discrepancies. $420 when to Theresa, and rest went to Haydeli lady who cleans (almost every brother contributed in some way).
