Budget Guide

Dchlobow: Undo revision 3387 by Mspang (Talk) - Fuck off mspang

The amount of funding we get is determined by MathSoc policy 4 (see http://www.mathsoc.uwaterloo.ca/pinkbook.php). In particular, the maximum amount of funding is proportional to the number of full members we have.

1.k).vi.iv. A recognized Club may apply to the Society for funding by submitting a budget proposal to the Vice-President, Finances within the first three weeks of the term
for which they are seeking funding.

==Recruitment and election funding==
1.k).vi.v At the beginning of each term, a recognized Club is entitled to the following, over and above their budget proposal:
1.k).vi.v.i. a fifty dollar ($50) budget for recruiting activities and
1.k).vi.v.ii. a twenty dollar ($20) budget for elections
Only expenditures deemed reasonable for their respective purposes, in the estimation of the Vice President, Finances, may be applied to the respective amounts.

In Winter 2008, we ran our first recruitment drive. We gave out 4 free pops to people who registered for the current term. In order to keep track of who was entitled to pops, we gave people red tickets (stored in the desk in the CSC).

We've noticed that people on co-op terms tend not to pay for membership during their co-op term. A suggestion is to allow people to sign-up for 2 terms at a price of $3.

==Membership list==
1.k).vi.vi. A recognized Club must present to the Society a list of its members before or with its proposed budget. An acceptable membership list will consist of the names of
members as well as at least one corresponding University issued unique identifier, including but not limited to UWDir ID, or Student Identification number. An
electronic copy of this list must be submitted to the Director of Internal Affairs.

In order to generate this memberlist, 'ceo memberlist' can be used. The following script prints out the number of full members:
#!/bin/bash
REGEX="(mat/|vpa/se|computer science|math)"
BADUSERS="(dtbartle|dlgawley|cpdohert|mbiggs|tmyklebu)"

echo -n 'Members with Math/CS as their program: '
ceo memberlist | egrep -i "$REGEX" | egrep -v $BADUSERS | wc -l

==The Budget==
1.k).vi.vii. The Society will allocate funds to the Clubs on the basis of the submitted budget proposal, in accordance with, but not necessarily limited to, the following
considerations:
1.k).vi.vii.i. A Club may not receive in funding from the Society an amount greater than that determined by the following formula:
[(Student Fee) – (Dedicated Revenues) + (Club Fee)] X (Club Membership)
Where “Student Fee” refers to the present fee collected by the Society on the University tuition fee bill, and where “Dedicated Revenues” refers to portions of
the ‘Student Fee” that are dedicated to specific funds or external organizations, including but not limited to mathNEWS and the Capital Improvements Fund, and
where “Club Fee” refers to the fee levied by the Club in accordance with this Policy, possibly zero, and where “Club Membership” refers to the number of Full Members
of the Club, as indicated by the most recently received list submitted by the Club and verified by the Director or Internal Affairs.
1.k).vi.vii.ii. The appropriateness of any given budget item in light of the stated purpose of the Club and the financial state of the Society.

It is worth noting that MathSoc essentially matches our membership fee. When submitting budgets, we are required to include membership revenues. Currently, as per the above formula, MathSoc will give us about $11.50 per member. In the past, MathSoc has had very few complaints about the appropriateness of our budgets. We typically ask for:
* Hardware; in the past, we've asked for up to $1500 worth of hardware and have had it approved.
* Office supplies; usually $100 or so.
* Food for talks and events: usually $200 or so.
* Advertising for talks and events: usually $200 or so.

==Submitting expense forms==
1.k).vi.viii. Clubs shall receive their funding following an activity upon submitting an Expense Reimbursement Form to the Vice-President, Finances. The Vice-President, Finances
may dispense funds prior to an activity, but the Club must submit an Expense Reimbursement Form afterward in order to reconcile the difference.
1.k).vi.viii.i. The Vice President, Finances may withhold reimbursements to a Club deemed to be delinquent in its duties as prescribed by this Policy as advised by the Director
of Internal Affairs. If this becomes the case, the Vice President, Finances will give written notice to the executive of the Club, detailing the rationale for
withholding reimbursement and what steps must be taken in order to fulfill the duties of the Club.

It is the treasurer's responsibility to submit expense forms to MathSoc, and to ensure that MathSoc issues the CSClub cheques accordingly.

The third is vague ideas of what kind of books we need. The goal is for this page to be emptied by way of moving things from section three up to section one and then off.

A bunch of these were bought. That needs to be updated.

Dchlobow: Smaller section titles

== Where ==

On a normal pop run, you will likely be going to [http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=200+university+ave.+w.+to+24+Forewell+Creek+Road,+Waterloo,+ON&sll=43.470082,-80.537682&sspn=0.013143,0.027637&ie=UTF8&ll=43.477276,-80.531588&spn=0.026283,0.055275&z=14 Real Canadian Wholesale Club] As far as we know, it has the best normal prices around unless someone has a Costco Card.

== What ==

Generally, buying ~$200 worth of pop will last the CSC about half a term or less, especially shortened at the beginning when we give out pop to new members.

Assuming you're buying $200 of pop, the author's suggestion is: (please modify according to patterns noticed and your intuition)
* 5 x 24-pack Coca-Cola (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: apparently people really like Coke over Pepsi)
* 5 x 24-pack Dr. Pepper (@ $7.99 ea.)
* 1 x 24-pack Canada Dry (@ $7.99 ea.)
* 1 x 24-pack 7up/Sprite (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: likely one will be cheaper by a dollar, buy it)
* 2 x 24-pack Barq's (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: Barq's is the only one with Caffeine, buy it)
* 3 x 24-pack Rainbow Pk (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: someone has specified they want more Soda, I increased ratio, feel free to drop one)
* 1 x 24-pack Five Alive (@ $10.99 ea.?) (Note: Just some juice-like canned pop)
* 1 x 24-pack Nestea (@ $11.99 ea.)
* 3 x 9-pack Sunlike (@ $3.?? ea.) (Note: Sunlike or Fairlee is cheapest for juice, normal deal is at 3 plus packs bought, and I'll note later which one is cheaper per bottle (not that it matters much since it's a difference of like a cent))
Total + 13% Tax: ~$195

If you don't think this can fit in the back seat of your car, it can, trust me, I drive a small car. Trunk or front seat space is nice to have though.

== Deals ==

Deals are found by looking at the weekly flyers of:

* 5 x 24-pack Coca-Cola (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: apparently people really like Coke over Pepsi)
* 5 x 24-pack Dr. Pepper (@ $7.99 ea.)
* 1 x 24-pack Canada Dry (@ $7.99 ea.)
* 1 x 24-pack 7up/Sprite (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: likely one will be cheaper by a dollar, buy it)
* 2 x 24-pack Barq's (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: Barq's is the only one with Caffeine, buy it)
* 3 x 24-pack Rainbow Pk (@ $7.99 ea.) (Note: someone has specified they want more Soda, I increased ratio, feel free to drop one)
* 1 x 24-pack Five Alive (@ $10.99 ea.?) (Note: Just some juice-like canned pop)
* 1 x 24-pack Nestea (@ $11.99 ea.)
* 3 x 9-pack Sunlike (@ $3.?? ea.) (Note: Sunlike or Fairlee is cheapest for juice, normal deal is at 3 plus packs bought, and I'll note later which one is cheaper per bottle (not that it matters much since it's a difference of like a cent))
Total + 13% Tax: ~$195

If you don't think this can fit in the back seat of your car, it can, trust me, I drive a small car. Trunk or front seat space is nice to have though.

Dchlobow: Added RIM's hoboness to Treasurer Stuffs... =)

There is a general meeting scheduled for Friday October 19, 2007.

=== Staff training ===
* Burning/Giving out linux distros
* ceo stuff, and signing up new members
* Answering random people's questions: SQL hosting, lending books out, upgrading to new Ubuntu, installing Ubuntu (on tablets?)
* What machines we own, their specs, what's installed on them, and their intended purposes
* etc..

=== Hobos ===

* Concerns/Ideas for making the CSC less hobo (Come with clear, planned out as much as possible, ideas, so we can get concrete plans for the term)
* Koha, and library stuff, this includes updating library, need book ideas...
* Do we still want to be an ACM Chapter? It seems it's an important thing for previous members, but not at all for current members. What are the pros and cons? (Cons include paperwork and paying dues)
* Online ceo front-end?
* Dumbterm vs. Smartterm
* What do we have in terms of visions and goals for the CSC? We are currently running one of the only two Stratum One NTP Servers in Canada; we are now also the official Canadian Ubuntu mirror, and considering running our own Tor Node. There are concerns over too much effort being spent on gratuitous slashdotting. The CSC may soon have a gigabit internet connection. If university official hobos are obstructive, we should get that solved somehow; in the meantime, we'll discuss how we're limited now, why, what we're planning to do about it, and what's probably going to happen.

* Relevant to above, can we plan something big-ish, that would make us super-awesome and semi-famous for a while and stuff? In addition to making the CSC awesome, it would also give us some clout, and we could actually get a little respect 'round here.

* Throw out cans and stuff after use, stop leaving it around, please try keep CSC clean
* Virtual machines for clubs
* gum-arabic and calum

=== Events this term ===
* Latest on Walter Bright and Michael Geist?
* We want Install-fest & Linux-Awareness Week, (especially considering new Ubuntu coming out). How exactly has it been run in the past, and how do we go about doing it this term? Are we getting the new Ubuntu CDs? When those come out would be a good time for Installfest etc.
* Same as above for Unix 101 / 102
* Anyone willing to organize programming contest?
* CSC project day?

=== Treasurer stuffs ===
* What the f*** do you guys want from MEF exactly? - Okay, I know, the 2 mirror machines--but we want details, and to make sure they're not hobo at all. We have more than enough hobo hardware, and need to move on to some quality machines now.
* Who should I ask for money? Sandvine, OpenText, the Mob, and your mom have been suggested, but ideas are welcome if anyone knows anyone specific in companies to contact.
* RIM has been very very hobo, they'll fund Walter Bright, but nothing else, need to disperse hardware among MEF and other ideas.
* Does anyone have good spatial reasoning and hand-eye co-ordination that could be put to use making a large, flashy poster to get us babes?

=== Library ===
* Librarian Midnight Party 7pm Sunday?
* We're going to grab the old database from wherever and update it and figure stuff out.
* Let's sort our current books.
