In-person rehearsal for CA?

  • Day of for FYSOP performance probably

    • Ask for the first half hour of the programming to rehearse?

  • For Sep. 4th, planning to have at least one rehearsal before then


Reimagining BUSTies?

  • Photonics already booked for that night?

    • And the following nights?

      • Need to find a new location rather than a different day

  • BUSTies is consistently way too long

    • With location change, should parts of the event change as well?

      • Separating roasts into its own event? Cut roasts altogether? 

  • We’ve held BUSTies in the GSU underground before

  • Roast night in another location, much more casual event?

    • Would definitely help the vibes for each event

  • Add a ~senior speaker~ to BUSTies? 

    • Keep the energy celebratory instead of inside joke-y

BU Reddit (Steve)

  • Someone’s looking for a woodshop on campus

    • We should reach out to them!
