- UP: UP has reemerged at the top universi7es in the world in the QS, 374th
- LOL news: Simon Cowell weighs in on Pinoy band superstar
- The Situationer Evaluation
- Jem: Okay, though there was lack in aMendance due to different simultaneous events; solid 'yung hosts (the Freshie BReps)
- Pat: If there was maintenance with the simultaneous events, dapat isang bayad lang for over7me
- Strengths (Jem): I guess we had the majority of SEAC, save for UPIC and Sidhi. A lot of Council was not present during the Situa7oner
- Comments
- Gabbi: Na-bring up ng isang batchmate ko na pagdating sa Pub, dapat ilagay raw kung anong meron sa Situationer para malaman nila kung anong meron
- Tin: Natuwa yung ibang SEAC na may certificate pa na binigay,
- Chito: Every event, test na7n yung sound system
- Carlos: I think mas maganda if may call time yung mga organizations sa Situationer.
- Kape updates
- Jem: Kape has been moved to October 27, to give time to prepare. Topic is the eUP (SAIS). The program heads are drafting a new concept paper, so we'll be giving you updates next week. We've been pencil-booked for Oct. 27 at SE Audi. The organizers also wanted to beef-up security para hindi rin masaktan yung mga speakers, if ever it gets violent.
- Questions:
- Carlos: Is there any help that you need now? § Jem: Pub, since wala kaming mahanap now.
- Council Reps for Constitution Revision
- Paje: We need to choose 2 representative for Council.
- Consensus: Carlos Cabaero and Lemuel Teh will be the Council Representatives for the Constitution Commission
- Paje: Also, Pat and Batch Representatives, we also need to find other delegates to ConComm. My timeline is that we should have representatives na by next friday (Sept. 15, 2016).
- Paje: We need to choose 2 representative for Council.
- Bulletin Board Assignments & DPs
- Tin: For the Bulle7n Board, I haven't completed it pa since matatakpan ng UP CAP. The House of the week will be assigned sa Hugot of the Week together with Lem. As for the DP, sana botohan kung anong shot ang gagawing display photo.
- Votation: First DP will be the formal pic, then we'll decide later on on what to use the creative pic for Professional: 10 & Creative: 6. Abstain: 1
- Tin: For the Bulle7n Board, I haven't completed it pa since matatakpan ng UP CAP. The House of the week will be assigned sa Hugot of the Week together with Lem. As for the DP, sana botohan kung anong shot ang gagawing display photo.
- UPIC Proposal
- Carlos: Brian was asking about the papers of UPIC for org recognition and he was wondering if we are amenable to partner with UPIC's events. In exchange, they are willing to be content generators for The Free Market and additional marketing from banks.
- Kiss: May nag-message sa Council page, who wants to have a literacy talk on finance. We could arrange for a partnership between UP SESC and UPIC
- Jem: I think it's a good partnership since we benefit a lot from it since it's hard to find content generators for The Free Market, and I think UPIC can provide that well
- Chito: I think maganda 'to, and hindi naman ganoon karami ang hinihingi nila. I think na duty na7n na tulungan ang Econ students and their orgs, so I think this is one way to fulfill that.
- Paje: I think it's cool naman though we can send this message to UPIC because I think that as a SEAC org rin, that they have to par7cipate as well with the Econ community
- Conclusion: Let UPIC send a formal proposal to Kiss.
- NYC
- Jem: They're now looking at 30 facilitators for NYC, and right now we have 3 assured slots for Council. One concern that was brought up was that SESC had no delegation of task. NYC wants us to be more integrated with the program by putting us in Programs. Facilitators need to attend two training days. We're also in good hands in terms of Finance and School Relations. NIP still hasn't confirmed for the Audi, since they said that they will reply on September.
- Council Facilitators: Ronsayro, Morada, and Paje
- Rise For Education
- Chito: Isa siyang coalition of college councils and organizations na may advocacy for education. I think kailangan ko nang i-bring up 'to since pinepressure na kami. From what I see, hindi tayo sasali sa orientation since hindi aligned ang stances. Wala namang pagpipilit na sumali dito.
- Carlos: There was also a similar thing that happened last year with UP Alyansa, in that there was a campaign for progressive rollback, though we didn't join, ultimately.
- Aaron: I think this is a way to build rapport with the USC and other student councils
- Chito: We'll just make sure that this orienta7on is non- binding, and papupuntahin na lang na7n sila dito para sure na walang hidden things.
- Jackie: Sana maging open rin tayo to just listen with what they have to say. I think it can help us in terms of strengthening what we think right now. Wouldn't it be beMer to listen to other stands since pwede tayong makahanap ng loophole or other arguments for and against our case.
- Howie: I think we should take this as a learning opportunity for us.
- Consensus: Makikipag-usap si Chito sa organizers about this. We'll aMend the orienta7on as long as non-binding
- STRAW Updates
- Howie: Yung first aid workshop is next week, Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2016. Kailangan rin ng hosts.
- Consensus: Paje and Pat for hosts
- For STRAW Talk, I resched it to September 27, 2016. Baka 'yung topic is mental awareness.
- For the first-aid kit, nasa guard na lahat, and thank you for Betina sa lalagyan
- Batch reps, please disseminate na lang through your Facebook groups.
- Also, sana may repub ng DearSTRAW sa batch groups.
- For the tambayan, please remind SEAC groups na maglinis sa tambayan.
- Howie: Yung first aid workshop is next week, Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2016. Kailangan rin ng hosts.
