Great meeting last night gang- thanks everyone for taking on our many tasks!
I have a couple of additions/changes to the posted minutes:
1. The next technical meeting will be on WEDNESDAY, JULY 11TH AT 7:30 P.M. IN ISTB2 265. Let me know ASAP if this is not a good day and time. Please send me your slides by Wednesday morning. If you have difficulty finding sources let me know and I can help you find some. Also, the books that are circulating among the group have lots of good starting information, so you could also send an e-mail to the group asking the people with the books if there is information about your topic.
2. For the fundraising meeting: Nicole will finish making our group "brochure/flier" for Monday and will also show us the presentation she has put together for businesses and how she would present it.
3. Ayla is in contact with the professor in Quito- she is finding out about their lab capabilities
4. For all the presenation topics, keep in mind when you're finding information that we'll want to compile a binder with all these topics to bring on the assessment trip
Also, I can't seem to upload files to our website, so here are the links I promised (including the files):
