November 22, 2011 Meeting
Our last meeting we discussed some club items in brief then proceeded straight to some Anthro Club fun!
Some upcoming dates to remember as the doodle polls have closed for the MIA event and the Anthropology Club End-of-the-Semester dinner. Per the tabulated votes the dates are as follows:
MIA Field trip: Thursday, December 1st at 7:00pm
(We will discuss the intricacies of this at the next meeting. Basically you will be responsible for your own transportation but some of us may carpool from NHCC. Meet us there if you choose).
End-of-the-Semester Dinner: Thursday December 15, 7:00pm at Fuji Ya
(Again, club members will be responsible for their own transportation and meal costs, we will reserve an area for the club to dine, meet us there or plan a carpool if you choose.)
Additionally, we voted on dates for the spring semester meetings and it has been decided that Anthropology Club meetings will take place Monday's at 2pm. We will try to have the same room assignment if possible, as always I will keep you informed as to where the meeting will take place.
We still have exciting events planned for the spring semester. Don't forget about our proposed conference/symposium, if you would like to present at the event please let us know, there if the discussion of incentives for presenters, besides a nice addition to your resume.

Meeting 5 Re-Cap
Here is a brief summary of what went on at our last meeting.
We voted for historian/ documentarian. Andy and some others will be taking on this role.
Officers meeting will be taking place on Mondays @ 1:30.
We have decided to approach the funding request for King Tut admission from a different angle by asking the Dean of Fine Arts to fund this trip, or possibly see if we can receive a grant. Jon and Kat will be meeting with the Dean on Friday April 8th.
Planned Activities and Business:
Apply for a budget & funding for t-shirts/event.
Study group is still in the works, Kelly and Kat will be meeting with Joe Crow to finalize the group on Tuesday April 12th. In the meantime, if anyone is interested or seeking study help Dr. Mallery is always happy to help with office hours Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Jeopardy plans include a computerized version of the game so the request for note cards with questions no longer applies.
Proposed ideas for our "What is Anthropology?" Week:
Establish a budget for food, supplies, prizes etc.
Potential Bribes:
Buttons
Stickers
Cupcakes, cookies, candy
Other ideas:
Trivia questions
Anthropology Brochures
Games
Other business:
Still need logo and posters, (Kat promises to work on both this weekend).
Please complete the doodle survey for the MIA field trip if you wish to attend, it would be nice to get that event date settled soon. There is a link in the margin, or you can follow the link listed below.

The U of M undergrad Anthropolgy Conference is this weekend at the Landscape Arboretum.
