Yamazaki CLOSED on WEEKENDS ?!!

This is completely ridiculous. Why don't they change the manager, instead of closing the shop. How can they have higher profit, if they are buying the drinks more expensive than I can buy in JUSCO??? The problem is not the working time, but very poor management.

Another sign that this school is dying... very sad.

GSO-EC Minutes

I have been attempting to read the minutes from location

Iuj-home>Organization>GSO>Our Minutes of Meeting

I cannot access the Minutes. When the document is about to load in Microsoft Word, a message appears telling me that I do not have user access.

Can we sort this problem out, please?

Thanks in advance.

Results of Meeting with the President

Hi again everyone,

It is my great pleasure to announce that the meeting was a huge success. President Sugihara is on-board 100% and has promised full support for a Gym Improvement project, to the tune of 2-3 million yen (I don't even know the word for million in Japanese... so that's good).

He did advise that it may take time, and might have to be a phased project with several installments over the next 2 years. At the same time, he authorized immediately for Professor Sugai to spend his class-raised funds on the gym, so we will go ahead and place an order in the coming weeks for 450,000円 worth of new equipment.

Included in the inventory are rubber mats, racks, free weights, Squat cage, Barbells & Plates with proper safety clips. These immediate upgrades will make the exercise area a whole lot safer, and certainly a more enjoyable place to exercise.

Included in the future plan are rennovations for the aerobics and dance area (possibly moving it to its own brand new room), overall improvements for the gym complex (including Main gym), a possible day-care area, and others.

(Sorry, for this time around we're only talking about the weight room & aerobics area on the 2nd floor of the gym... but GSO should be getting a few new things for the Main area too, and the heating issue has been taken care of).

Thanks to all students for the ongoing support,

GSO-EC

GYM HEATING

It is great that we are on the way to get our beloved Gym fixed and renovated, but what about the HEATING on the first floor. Do we have to make a petition for that as well?

No "thanks" this time...

Gym Improvement Project

Hey everybody,

I've been working very hard on this project and I just want to thank everyone who has contributed their ideas, suggestions or offered their support. In total over 50% of the student body signed the Gym Improvement petition, and we got alot of feedback through the Survey.

Now, I will be meeting with President Sugihara this Wednesday (February 7th, 2007). What I need is for students to start posting their comments or opinions about the Gym publicly here on the Blog so that we can reach a common consensus on how to best spend funds and go about improving things. Don't worry, your comments on this thing are not monitored by the Administration, so go nuts!

Let's get vocal about this, it's not going to fix itself!!!
