[committee] UCC Special General Meeting Called by Ordinary Members

[Oscar Hermoso]

Hi again secretary@, committee@,

This is going to sound pretty pushy, and I apologize for that, but the only
communication from committee about the scheduling of the SGM is a single
line in the minutes - "December 16th?".

It's really not clear why that date was chosen. It is really far from the
end of exams, and it's on the same day as a pantomime production - a club
with significant crossover with UCC's active member-base. (and it doesn't
matter whether the meeting will be during the day or evening, because
there's two shows that day.)

I think it'd be appreciated by many members of the club if committee could
schedule the SGM perhaps sooner, or at the very least justify why December
16th is the best date.

Kind regards,

Oscar Hermoso
[CHS]
