  • What is the best type of media to use?
  • How long do various types of media last?

Slot 2: Year End Discussion

As we close out the year, let's get meta and have an open discussion of the past and future of SWCSF. What are your thoughts about and how can we improve:

  • The website (list upcoming talks, add a calendar)
  • The crew (we can always use a few more volunteers)
  • The video stream (Jitsi and streaming to YouTube)
  • The schedule (do we want to keep meeting on Mondays)
  • The format

Food

Free food will be provided, but we're switching nationalities again. Hawaiian food and soft drinks will be provided to all attendees, including SPAM musubi. If you've never had Hawaiian food, it is similar to Japanese food.

If you have other preferences, Speedy Street Tacos is within walking distance, just past the East parking lot. There are also a few other restaurants within a short drive of the college.
