We have a mandatory Lamp Session, Once a month, always at 9:30 P.M. as that is after all classes have ended, so no one can say that they are in class., once again, what is said as the Lamp is passed around, stays in the room. We've gotten some pretty bad arguements that way, but it cleared up a lot of negativity and in most cases misunderstandings between those involved. We had a Pig roast this past spring and it was a decent showing. I've got two pigs at a farm for the fall and its a great way for a Gif and a Recruiting event. If you try to have a Barbecue or something (picnic ???) try contacting as many of the local businesses as you can and see what they are willing to donate. I got Coca Cola to donate Sodas, Frito Lay gave us about 100 bags of chips (because they were to expire in two days). we had Ice donated by Home City Ice and plenty of other stuff. The only side effect was that we had so much stuff that we practically ate leftovers for two months. You might also try to become good friends with the Recruiters on campus or the Army National Guard. As long as we fly a Banner that says "Go Army" over our balcony, and give them two weeks notice, we get all of our tables and chairs for free and even better yet, we get access to one of the Hum V's with a kicking sound system. But that is something that I am working on at my school and it is working... you should try it though. Harrison.
