This is pasted from the email that was sent. Hey all,
At our last meeting, we decided to start emailing meeting notes. This should help those of you who cannot come to the meetings still know what's going on and be involved. If you'd like to contribute your thoughts or ideas on what we talked about, feel free to email us and we will share your thoughts at the next meeting.
We now have a wetpaint webpage started for WoCC and the meeting notes as well as any of your contributions will be posted there. It's a new page now, but will be added to over time. Wetpaint is a website designed so that anyone can contribute to the page, all you have to do is get a free account and you can start making contribution! Check ours out at
http://wocc-tesc.wetpaint.comWe are having a performance on Friday the 27th and Saturday the 28th during Arts Walk with Safe Place on sexual assault and domestic violence. Come to the QPOC meeting on Monday at 6 if you are interested in participating!
Aishah Simmons will be coming Thursday April 19th at 7 in the Longhouse. Please come at 6 and help us set up!
Also, in an effort to have the office open more often, we are inviting you to volunteer an hour or two of your time a week to sit in the office. You can do you homework, read something from the WoCC library or just hang out. If you feel like this is something you can do, please email us some times or sign yourself up on the webpage on the "office hours" page. For the time being, either Miki or I will open the office for you, but eventually we will have a key to check out at the S and A front desk.
Also, we were invited to chat with Lara Evans, the last of the Diversity Series speakers, TODAY at 2 in C 2107. Come if you can make it!
If you haven't heard, EPOC has started! Evergreen People of Color, a group of all the poc student groups, is an idea that came out of the Day of Absence retreat. Check out their webpage at

Some house keeping things:
Andy Corn is going to buy us a new rug for the office! If anyone is interested in coming with me to pick out a new one, please email us. I want to do this relatively soon.
Also, we have a million Ms. Magazines in the office, from the 80's till '94 or something. We should do something creative with these! An image analysis, perhaps? Email us if you have any ideas, or post something on the webpage.
WoCC Tiny Theatre is coming soon. For those of you who don't know, WoCC Tiny Theatre is a theatre we'll be holding once a month in the office. These will range from open mics to performances to film screenings. If you have something you want to perform, or an idea of something you want to see, email us or post on the web page. Coming soon is a WoCC Tiny Theatre about oral history.
