I've got some stepper motor code done on the Arduino which could be used to serially instruct the stepping (ramp up, constant speed slew, ramp down) in the final system. Alternatively, it could be used for testing the mount motion and then reassigned to another project requiring an Arduino. The parts cost (including Arduino Mega) is around $150 and I've just asked Bob whether that is appropriate expenditure to be reimbursed as a UCC project. If UCC has an Arduino Mega then the interface-board-only cost is closer to $70. I can buy the parts and proceed but if it runs and remains at UCC, would committee let me know if that is a recoverable cost ?

We have a markup on drinks and snacks of approx 40%, so the goods cost to the club is ~$3.60. We also get ~$1.90 back from the guild per guild member, so in reality a new member costs us ~$1.70. The number of guild members we have also factors into how much we get in semester 1 and 2 soc grants, so the more members the merrier. A non-guild fresher still pays $10, so nothing lost there. On the other hand, I firmly believe that the losses can be more than offset by freshers who stick around longer. $5 will be enough of an incentive to get freshers to sign up, go up to the clubroom, activate their accounts, and then come back more than once. We get them hooked so to speak.

What is SocMeet? "SocMeet" is a networking meeting which is attended by representatives of Perth's leading employers and representatives of faculty student societies from all of the metropolitan universities in WA. It represents an opportunity for you to promote your Society and the opportunities you have for employer involvement. Who Should Attend We would like to invite your Society to send a suitable representative(s) to SocMeet on Friday 18th March. To keep numbers to a manageable level we are suggesting that each Society sends up to three representatives. Who you send is entirely up to you - it may be your President, your Sponsorships Secretary, your Employer Liaison Manager etc. Who else is being invited? We have extended an open invitation to all employers in the Perth market to attend SocMeet so we anticipate a cross section of local and national employers will be in attendance. We have also invited representatives of faculty student societies from all of WA's universities. So there is the prospect that we will have several similar societies in attendance representing different universities (e.g. a number of different Law Societies) Perth SocMeet - Event Details Date: Friday March 18th Time: 12 - 2pm Catering: Lunch Venue: Ernst & Young, 11 Mounts Bay Road, Perth WA, (The Ernst & Young Building is right next to the bus port and above the Esplanade train station) Register for SocMeet Please confirm your Society's attendance at SocMeet by completing a short online registration form which is accessible by clicking the link below. Please ensure that each of your Society's representatives completes the registration form. We use the registration details to create name badges and a list of attendees as well as order the correct amount of catering. Click here to register for SocMeet or paste this link into your browser: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PERSocMeet2011 Further information We have added further background information in the "Fine Print" section below. We will be in touch with registered delegates nearer the date of SocMeet. Please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime. Regards Shanan THE FINE PRINT Here are some more details: What is the Purpose of SocMeet? The purpose of SocMeet is to build stronger links between employers and student societies. Employers are interested in raising their profile on campus and in attracting graduates into their workforce. They are particularly interested in developing strong ties with student societies which represent specific university faculties. Some of the issues of importance to student societies are raising funds and providing their members with access to future employment opportunities. Our aim is to bring together employers and student societies at the same event to understand how both groups may be able to work together for mutually beneficial outcomes. We recognise that some student societies already have ties with particular employers or industry associations. These existing relationships will continue - SocMeet is an opportunity for everyone to meet everyone else. SocMeet is being organised by The Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE). The Australian Association of Graduate Employers The Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE) is the peak industry body representing employers that recruit and develop Australian graduates. The AAGE is similar to a student society in that we are a not-for-profit association funded entirely by our membership. In the case of the AAGE, our members are all employers who share a common interest in attracting, recruiting and developing graduates. The AAGE has over 240 member organisations including a range of large, medium and small employers from both the public and private sector. Our members are drawn from a range of industries including engineering, mining, professional services, law, banking, IT, government to name just a few. Our members regularly recruit graduates from all Australian universities. You can find out more information about the AAGE via our website www.aage.com.au Shanan Green Research Manager Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE) Ltd Ph: 0414 932 699 Email: shanan at aage.com.au Please note I work part time hours for AAGE and will respond to your email or phone message as soon as possible. ----- End forwarded message ----- From pabx-reports at ucs.uwa.edu.au Thu Feb 10 08:19:54 2011 From: pabx-reports at ucs.uwa.edu.au (pabx-reports at ucs.uwa.edu.au) Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2011 08:19:54 +0800 (WST) Subject: [committee] [PABX] Group Summary - PDF Message-ID: <20110210001954.369D38B335@new-charon.its.uwa.edu.au> An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
