Introduction

Meeting Attendees:
Dr. Hull
Mr. Gunter
Mr. Lundy
Ms. Chi
Mr. Camcam

Mr. Gunter has secured conference room 219 on TSU main campus to host the 1st Meet/Greet. We have rescheduled the time/date and need members to attend to help recruit new membership and build brand awareness for MCFS.

Please mark your calendars for January 21, 2009 from 11 to 1 for the main campus Meet & Greet event. We have allocated funds from Campus Kaleidoscope to provide treats and beverages. It's suggested the treats have an ethnic/international theme to offer a sample of Spring Celebration. Also, to promote excitement and buzz, we asked Mr. Camcam invite his breakdancers.

An additional Meet/Greet event will be held on the downtown campus on January 22nd from 4 to 5:30 near the Atrium with treats/beverage. Entertainment for that event is undecided. Hopefully, we can invite the breakdancers back for our second meet/greet. Again, we need current members to help provide support for MCFS.

Our goal for the Meet/Greet is to recruit membership by promoting the importance of networking with the global community. MCFS will began programs, workshops, seminars as a benefit for students and their future in the global marketplace.

Mr. Gunter suggested CommunityNashville--an organization dedicated to fighting the "ism". CommunityNashville host a retreat that MCFS members will have the opportunity to attend.

Mr. Camcam will be speaking with corporate sponsors to attend MCFS meetings and educate attendees about what global market criterias corporations are seeking today.

Election date is January 29, 2009 for executive committee positions: President, Secretary, PR Officer
