XRO:
The office is full of old papers and I am left to puzzle out what happened over the last year and where we spent our money. There should be two rather pricey banners sitting around, but I've not seen them. There is a box of just shy of a thousand "I Support the SFSS" buttons. Those ran a little over five hundred bucks and I think went largely unused during the anti-impeachment campaign. Fortunately, I can think of an ironic use for them.

We also have a bunch of signed protest postcards to the provincial, and on occasion, federal government. Most of them (about three hundred) are anti-tuition cards for Victoria, which means that we have to provide our own postage, and that's a big enough expenditure to require taking it before the advocacy committee and then processing it through finance. Should it be surprising that this is a Federation campaign?

I put the first 178 cards into two large envelopes, which I can mail for $5.02, instead of $90.78 (plus labour and committee time). Now I'm finding the rest, since they're not all in one place.

Spread the word please:
The advocacy committee is interested in supporting SFU student activism on any semi-organized social justice cause that does not contradict SFSS social policy. We can help you with networking, room-booking and can give you supplies or cash. I am the person who puts items on the agenda, so contact me.
