| 15:02 | Gronk Seriman | Greetings, Chancellor. |
| 15:03 | Kara2016 | Smiles brightly. |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Starting time |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Welcome to this week's Caledon Oxbridge Deans' Q&A. This is an open meeting; |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | all are welcome apart from those who intend to misbehave in a disruptive manner. |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Non-disruptive misbehavior is at your discretion. |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Transcripts will be posted after the meeting. |
| 15:03 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | at http://www.caledonoxbridge.org/qna/qna_index.php |
| 15:04 | Luci کᴀɪɴϮ Cʟᴀɪʀᴇ (luciditelove) | I just came to listen. I was practicing my guitar when you called lol. |
| 15:04 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Listening is fine. |
| 15:04 | Kara2016 | a rock'n and a rolling. |
| 15:04 | Luci کᴀɪɴϮ Cʟᴀɪʀᴇ (luciditelove) | ha ha |
| 15:04 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Phrynne, do you have anything for this week? |
| 15:05 | Phrynne | A couple of things: |
| 15:05 | Phrynne | I've been adding a few more spring flowers and bunnies at Oxbridge. If the tulips seem to *move* when you look at them -- they're supposed to. They're particle only. |
| 15:05 | Phrynne | You won't see them if you don't have particles turned on. |
| 15:06 | Kara2016 | smiles brightly. |
| 15:06 | Phrynne | The other thing is that I have officially presented my credentials to the Council and Magistrate of Jadida Mondrago, and been accepted as Consul General of the Consulate there. |
| 15:06 | RainyDayRecess | Congratulations! :D |
| 15:06 | Phrynne | I've just sent you all a notecard with the LM of the Consulate, in case you'd like to stop by. |
| 15:07 | Ember (emberell) | Oh, marvelous |
| 15:07 | Agatha Macbeth smiles @ Ember | |
| 15:07 | Phrynne | There's a meeting room -- with tea and lemonade -- and a resource room with books on travel, Steampunk, and history. |
| 15:07 | Phrynne | Also an Oxbridge schedule of classes. |
| 15:07 | Phrynne | You're all welcome to all of it. |
| 15:08 | Phrynne | The main reason for putting it together is that a lot of Mondragans did not come through Oxbridge, and may not know of our classes. |
| 15:08 | Phrynne | So, this outreach for whatever can be offered. |
| 15:08 | Phrynne | And, that's it for now. |
| 15:09 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thank you, Phrynne and a great special project. |
| 15:09 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Andrea? |
| 15:11 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Nothing much this week. The Burning Man in Sl was this weekend, finished up the build on that. We get mentioned here if people look at my profile. It has the basic info for The COU there |
| 15:11 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Got a link to your Burning Man build? |
| 15:12 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | I am working on a art show event for soon. The Cancer memorial remembrance pool opened today, |
| 15:12 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | yes one sec |
| 15:12 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Main gate Burning Man- Deep Hole (223,58,25) |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Main Stage Burning Man- Deep Hole (128,164,24) |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Gift Area Burning Man- Deep Hole (227,87,25) |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Andrea's Build Burning Man- Deep Hole (223,58,25) |
| 15:13 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thanks. |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | and the pool address it is in the village |
| 15:13 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | Caledon Oxbridge Village (65,72,23) |
| 15:14 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | That is all for me |
| 15:14 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Thank you. |
| 15:15 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And the pool has floating candles on which someone can put a remembrance again? |
| 15:16 | Ember (emberell) | Yes, I believe. IT was looking wonderful when I saw it earlier |
| 15:16 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | ty |
| 15:17 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | yes the candles are there |
| 15:17 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | you can leave a notecards and put in a text on the candle |
| 15:17 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | My SL effort for the week was in catching up on the financial transactions and getting that info to Andrea and Rainy |
| 15:18 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | With breakout spreadsheets for the 10th Anniversary and Belly Dance Pavilion events. |
| 15:20 | Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) | ty |
| 15:20 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | The nominal amount to have in our account at this point would be 236,536 $L. What we have is 248,765 $L, so a 12,229 $L surplus. But that surplus is down from about 32k $L at the beginning of the year. |
| 15:21 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | This is after paying tier on 3 April and catching up on instructor stipend payments. |
| 15:23 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Our costs are about 107k per 13 weeks with $74,750 being tier, the rest mostly stipends to instructors. |
| 15:24 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | And this is the hard time of year to raise funds, because RFL has a large continuous effort. |
| 15:26 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | With that, open for general questions, comments, announcements, and confusions. |
| 15:28 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Welcome, Sandie |
| 15:28 | Sandie Harbour | thank-you |

| 15:34 | Kara2016 | and thats a good thing..for this matter. |
| 15:35 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | Well, if we implement the mole-infested rule of the channels with trapdoors... |
| 15:35 | Phrynne | you matter. Unless you move at the speed of light squared, then you energy |
| 15:35 | Gronk Seriman | Somebody started it, and people lepton. |
| 15:35 | Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) | Or as Venerable Wayne of the Buddha CEnter says: what we do matters. |
| 15:35 | Ember (emberell) | STrange matters, these jokes... |
| 15:36 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Any more topics to discuss? |

| 15:36 | Dee Sandalwood (delonestranger) goes up on the mountain and blows her matter horn, | |
| 15:36 | Ember (emberell) | I haven't anything but a smattering of more puns |
| 15:36 | lovejoy2199 | And, not one of these came from Sandie. |

| 15:36 | Kara2016 | laughing. |
| 15:37 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | Hearing nothing more, and knowing there is a Bashful Peacock dance, |
| 15:37 | Wordsmith Jarvinen | I release you all by declaring this meeting |
