9/22 Minutes

With all that's going on with the markets right now, obviously there's a lot to talk about. That said, much of tonight's meeting centered around trying to put together an interdisciplinary panel of professors to put recent events in a historical perspective, and try to explain the reasons for and consquences of tightening credit markets, bank failures, bailouts, etc. It will be geared not only to us, but to the greater campus community who might not understand what's going on, or the importance of it, so when the time comes, bring your friends.

Also, next week will be when we vote on a new executive board (President, Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer) and formally decide what industries we want to cover, and set industry group leaders. That said, with all that's going on the markets, we may have to be flexible this year, as entire sectors might just become too risky for our purposes. If you're interested in running for a position, come to next week's meeting knowing what you want to do and why.

So, next week's meeting is a very important one, and you should come.
