Questions - Student Org Night

[Kaan]

I'm really bummed out you all would let this blow out of proportion in 3 days because of my absence. I understand people haven't been stoked on the officer leadership so far this year which is understandable.

try 6 days. I posted knowing there was no participation. instead of reading "we werent able to make it, there was a paperwork issue. we are trying to resolve the issue but in the mean time we mailed out flyers"... i got zero response

I put sometime into things over Christmas break and I believe I've finally figured out a way to keep all of us on the same page and involved (involvement was a big struggle for some last semester). January ran smoothly for officers, we have a planner focusing on week by week tasks and we have ALL of our major events for the year posted up on Google calendar for everyone to see.

since there is proof of the awesome interaction between officers... are you guys really talking to each other about your tasks? there hasnt been much movement in the last 20 days on the officers forum related to the car show. if you define missing student org night as a smooth month for officers, we can both agree we define "smooth" differently.

For those of you suggesting change up of officers maybe you should have put your money where your mouth is and ran for a position. Better yet, if you want to get involved just mention it to me and I'll be glad to give tasks to members leading up to the car show ( I definitely think it's important to get potential future leadership involved in tasks now).

i'd calm down just a little bit. most of the alumni have been in your shoes and are questioning things. explaining yourself and the others to the current students will always go over better than attacking people.

Matt I appreciate your truth and trust me, I know what it feels like to not have a car and how it can bum you out (I finally got mine back this weekend).

I'm going to save this for historical record... i was wrong, you guys have agreed and been nice to each other once.

As for work with Red Bull, yes Julie it is my job and quite honestly I skipped over this thread because I missed it on the forum. Over these three days I've been up before 5 am driving to various mountains and making sure my biggest event of the year runs smoothly (incase you're wondering it went great and we kicked UVA's ass go Dukes). I certainly plan to show the same promotion skills and support of our MM events with the same enthusiasm. I see us as in the off season right now and while we're working on tasks behind the scenes with MM I needed until this week to really kick things into gear which I finally have a chance to do. I'm hosting a top gear night on Thursday for who ever is game to come over. I've mentioned before that if something is developing on the forum and I'm not noticing it, it's not cause I don't give a shit we just have crazy lives sometimes and other things have our attention at the moment. MM kicks ass and I intend to step our game up in big ways this semester.

I'll believe that when i see it. there was big talk in peoples election threads and i ahvetnn seen it pan out. you have one major event and MM hasnt even talked to one of the biggest and easiest supporters of that event.
