Committee Reports:

• No more movies of the week until next semester.
• We'll start planning the end-of-the-year party at the next meeting, which is in two weeks. Please email suggestions for movies to watch to the list!
• The party will probably be in the Geisert basement as usual; people will have to reserve it and projection equipment, and get food.

• We voted on the quote for the T-shirt: we'll be using a quote from Douglas Adams that escapes me at the moment. But it was an unanimous vote, so it must have been good. :)
• The shirts will be about $8.50 each for a white-on-black T-shirt. If you or anyone (in Psi Phi or not) wants one, email Julie (jfaas@bobcat).
• We'll be looking into selling our shirts to others, and even online. See the emails from Julie to the Psi Phi list.

• Recently, Decipher (makers of Star Wars, Star Trek, and Young Jedi CCG's) acquired the rights to all 9 Star Trek movies, and the original series. Expect more cards in this direction...
• Also recently, Wizards of the Coast (makers of Magic the Gathering and translators of the Pokemon CCG) was bought out by Hasbro.

• No report.

Officers' Reports:

• No report.

• We got an image banner from MCS, that might go up on the website.

• The current balance is $261.46.

• Other than suspicions of "turning into an optimist," no report.

• Mail:
  • Joel was invited to the Bradley presidential round table.
  • Mail from the Psychology Dept. of U of Southern Mississippi. Mixup in the mail room?
  • An ad for Alpha Phi Omega for volunteer work.
  • Mail from Phi Sigma Sigma; they're selling greeting cards this week.
  • Mail about Up Till Dawn (March 2000), which benefits St. Jude children's Hospital.

Scifi News:

• A new Star Trek computer game, Hidden Evil, is out. It's an action game set after Insurrection. If you're interested, order it through www.psiphi.org.
• Y2K: the movie will be on NBC on Sunday.
• Spaghettio's are now Y2K compliant (They added a "2"). However, Lifesaver's Pineapple flavor is not!
• Lotsa books are coming out: The Lives of Dax, ST: Badlands 1&2, Spock vs. Q (audiobook), ST New Worlds New Civilizations (art book), and The Incredible Internet Guide for Trekkers (Psi Phi is mentioned inside!).
• We discussed technobabble in ST episodes. Look out behind you - tachyons!
