CONSTRUCTIVE POINTS
1. AGM results
2. Upcoming events
1. CUDS held its 2005/06 AGM on March 24th where a new executive was
elected for the 2006/07 year and a number of constitutional amendments and
bylaws were passed. Thanks to our outgoing executive for a job very well
done in this banner year for CUDS, and good luck to our new executive:
Adam Coombs, President
Jordan Charbonneau, VP Administration
Graham Pressey, VP Communications
Andrew Lawrence, VP Internal
Garnett Genuis, VP External
Yannick LePage, VP French Debate (new position)
Constitutional amendments
<http://www.carletondebate.org/constitution>included points about
representation of Carleton's diverse student body in
CUDS, the formation of a new tournament selection committee (TSE), the
establishment of a new executive position (VP French Debate), tournament
particpation selection policy, and various minor points on the descriptions
of executive duties. Moreover, several new bylaws were created in regards to
reporting tournament results, the formation of a new equity committee,
voting rights, and high-cost tournaments - check out the bylaws
section<http://www.carletondebate.org/bylaws>to find out more.
Our special congratulations also go out to Padraic Ryan, our former VP
External, who will be going on to higher and mightier things as the new
President of CUSID, the governing body of Canadian university debating.
Armed with a respectable haircut and a new, less-incriminating picture on
CUSIDnet, Padraic is sure to take CUSID by storm.
2. There are several upcoming social events. On April 7, CUDS is meeting
up with EDS for an end-of-year banquet at the Blue Cactus. In addition, Ben
Piper is hosting a get-together/potluck at his house on the 15th of April.
All debaters are welcome for both events, but are encouraged to give their
names to the exec so we have some idea of the numbers we can expect. Please
post on the appropriate CUSIDnet thread if you intend on attending either
one of the events.

Hi there everyone,
We've heard back from the room booking people, and now have a location for
the meetings. They are:
Wednesdays at 7:00pm in Loeb Building rm. D487
Fridays at 3:30pm in Tory Building rm. 204
The first meeting will be this coming Wednesday, the 14th, at 7:00pm.
Also, the Novice training session will be held this coming Saturday, the
17th, from 9:30 through the afternoon. We will be meeting in Tory
Building, room 204. Attendance is required if you want to attend the
Novice tournament at the end of the month. (For extenuating
circumstances, contact us.)
Two last things: First, just to clarify, the Novice tournament in
Sherbrooke isn't entirely free. We will require a $20 payment from
everyone going to ensure that you commit to the tournament. Details will
be coming on Wednesday.
Second, again we very much need experienced debators for the Saturday
Novice session in the afternoon. If you can come, then please email
president(a)carletondebate.org.
See everyone Wednesday.
Cheers.
