Any Other Business
1. When sitting in the back row you must not obscure the picture being projected. It is very annoying to the audience and a problem that is easily fixed.
2. Lectern.
Tim K to investigate getting additional cloth so that we can cover the Warwick logo and the lecture equipment all at the same time.
3. It was discussed at great length that everyone should be putting effort into the society and not leaving it to the few. We are all volunteers and it is not fair that some are left to do the brunt of the work. Please can everyone be more team minded in future and remember that the society cannot operate unless everyone helps out.
