HGM Overview 31/05/11

Posted on June 6, 2011 by mango

Power point-Committee

Hall chair mentioned that Hall subs are being taken over by the University.
However, implications could have an effect this year.

Questions that were raised

Contact to town

Way girl’s sport is run in Cayley

Motions

Committee can chose a New Media rep for Fresher’s -PASSED

Obtaining a new Football table four man-PASSED

Obtaining a new Mascot outfit-cougar-PASSED

Obtaining a new Projector-PASSED

What the committee will endeavour to do to improve on.

This terms HGM was a typically small one. However, plenty still turned out to
witness the spectacle of Hustings one last time. The question and answer session
was very helpful to the committee, however one could describe it as quite heated
in parts. Overall, the HGM went well and the booming command of Charles
Cusworth filled us with confidence for the next HGM.

Contact with Town

In response to the questions, we will be attempting to contact town in much
more imaginative ways. I would like to add I am attempting to add a role to
a certain committee members position in order to fulfil what is said below.
Hopefully tackling the issue with contact to town

-Firstly, we think that posting to those in town on a weekly maybe bi-weekly
basis would be an option.

-Ultimately, the more methods the better, and although facebook is a pain and
not everyone uses it. Through a recent survey it is clear that the majority use
facebook to find out what is going on.

Girl’s sport

Firstly, I am glad that the HGM expressed their concern for girl’s sport.
Ultimately, we are all in favour of having the committee kept on their toes. It
makes people work hard and that can only be good for the hall.

-In response to queries, the committee will discuss ways in which we as a
committee can put pressure on each other and also how the hall can put pressure
on us.

-However, I would definitely argue this be done in a fair way.

-The committee believe this is a matter, which is quite serious. Therefore we
need to discuss first before we promise anything to the hall. However, everything
that is discussed hall members will be able to see on minutes posted on the
Cayley hall website.

New Media rep position

The hall kindly gave the current committee the power to elect a new member
quickly. Ultimately, this new position is long overdue, and with many other halls
now having three media reps we feel that the new addition can bring nothing but
positives to cayley. The way they would be voted in is through interview by the
committee and anyone can apply. Their position would start immediately and
the person elected would then fall into the usual committee process. This second
position would be open in the February hustings.

Any questions about HGM or Hustings, please do not hesitate to contact via email

New Media Rep’

Posted on June 6, 2011 by mango

Criteria for new Media Rep

Must be able and:

-have a good knowledge of computer systems and be able to create posters, adverts and banners.

-must be creative, imaginative and hardworking.

-be proactive, there needs to be a real sense of wanting to do this.

Moreover, those who wish to go for this position must realise it comes with work.

-You are expected to film or take pictures of most of the Cayley IMS events for the hall, and this will involve close work with sports secs.

- Anyone going for this role must be serious.

We look forward to your applications.

Tom & the Committee

To apply

Application process will run from (05/06/11-10/06/11), sent via e-mail to cayleyhgm@hotmail.co.uk, with a manifesto and a written application.

In the written application, you should include;

Why you think you would be good?

Why you want to be a media rep?

What experience do you have?

This role is not about being part of fresher’s week, or bringing something different to the committee. This is about being suitable for the role of media rep and being able to fulfill the role adequately. There will be challenges that will be put to you in order to see if you are being serious i.e to create a poster for an IMS sport event. However, these challenges will be revealed at the end of the application period. Interviews will be taken by the committee, taking place on the evening of 13/06/11. Being aware of the exams, we will ensure that interviews are brief.

The hall will be made aware of the candidates and their manifestos, as well as any progress and developments in the hustings. Any issue a hall member has with the hustings and/or it’s developments, email cayleyhall11@gmail.com, but this format was voted in via a motion at the HGM in order to ensure the Media Rep is in place A.S.A.P.

Good luck with your campaigns, and we will keep everyone posted.
