Greetings everyone! As of yesterday (well, close to 16 hours ago) the club held the board elections for the 2015-2016 school year. Some of the votes were close but the results are in.
Next year, the board will look like this:
President: Maddie Stricklin
Vice President: Tristan Wayne
Treasurer: Halee Smith
Scribe: Ali Smith
Webmaster: Hannah Yinger
I look forward to having a fun year as President next year. Next month I will pass on the Scribe/PR torch to Ali and show her the ropes of updating you all on our actions!
Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday (especially if you're like me and you've had only about 12 hours of sleep over the course of the last 3 days)!

Upcoming Tuesday (3/10/15) Meeting Happenings
Greetings fellow anime lovers and otaku alike! I hope everyone enjoyed their Spring Break despite getting nearly a foot of snow (if you live in southern Ohio, eastern Kentucky, etc). We start classes again tomorrow and have a meeting this coming Tuesday. We have a few things going on that are very important this Tuesday so here's a quick rundown of what will take place.
Board/Officer Elections
Tuesday we will hold our elections for the 2015-2016 board members. A glimpse at who is running is as follows.
PRESIDENT:
~ Maddie Stricklin
~ Halee Smith
VICE PRESIDENT:
~ Tristan Wayne
TREASURER:
~ Jacob Jones
~ Halee Smith
SCRIBE/PUBLIC RELATIONS:
~ Ali Smith
~ Sarah Reichart
WEB MASTER:
~ Hannah Yinger
Voting will take place among paid members and alumni of the club during the meeting time after each rep has made their presentations. Best of luck to everyone.
Convention and Trip Refunds.
Jimmy has gotten the paperwork done from the two conventions and has hashed out who is getting what money back for the three trips we have taken this semester. If you drove to Sushiko and/or Ohayocon and attended Katsucon with us (in the van) then talk to Jimmy about getting your refund back.
Usual Shenanigans.
With events coming up through the University and other events that we have planned, we will ensue with our usual obnoxiousness and discuss what our plans for the second half of the semester include. Events include a possible fundraiser for Mom's Weekend next month [April], a second Saturday Showing, an end of the semester/year study party the weekend before finals week and a few others.
I hope everyone sleeps well tonight and gets to class without too many hiccups tomorrow morning. I know I'll have trouble getting up at my usual 7:30 am rather than closer to 10/11 am or some strange time in the afternoon. See everyone Tuesday!!

Once everything has been settled for those days there will be an update on the Facebook and here on the blog.
Secondly, the schedule for the Friday showings will show the anime as follows:

Restaurant Trip Update
Hello everyone!
As previous updates have explained, on November 22 we will be making a trip to Columbus to eat at Sushiko. Our reservation is for 26 people at 12:30 pm.
On Facebook, we have a document that will allow you to put yourself in a car for the trip. Departure times will depend on the driver of said vehicle. If you do not put yourself in a car then you will not be given a ride - it is your responsibility.
On that note. I have contacted the manager of the restaurant personally and we have discussed the terms of having a large group in his establishment. He has asked that we pay by table and not per person - this is simply a convenience factor for their business. So I ask that everyone bring cash to pay for their meals or work out payment with those you plan on sitting with (someone pays with their card and others pay said person back, etc. This entirely depends on the people you will be sitting with).
And secondly, the manager has also given me his personal email and has requested we send in everyone's orders to him the day before so they can prepare things shortly before everyone's arrival. I will open up a document on the facebook for everyone to access and record their required amount of raw fish and tempura and soup.
I can't wait for the day to get here when we get together! See everyone soon!

Restaurant Trip, T-shirts and Halloween.
Good afternoon my friendly geeks, gamers and otakus.
Yesterday we had a small and quick meeting and the updates - much as the title explains - are few, but important.
Restaurant Trip
We will be heading to Sushiko in Columbus, OH on November 22 for lunch. This is a Saturday and it is the weekend before Thanksgiving Break with Ohio University. If you have an interest in going with us, we ask that you fill out your information on the Google Doc that was shared on the Facebook Page (just search JMAGE and you'll find us) by November 4. I will be making the reservation the day after so exceptions will not be made.
Due to the large amount of people going, we are working out the driving situation. When we have everything worked out, we will send out an update.
Club T-Shirts
Another Google Doc will be made for people to put down their names and shirt sizes if people want a club T-shirt. The image that we use as our profile photo on Google+ is the image that will appear on the shirt - and of course, the shirts will be green.
If 30+ people want a T-shirt, they will run $10 a person. If 42 (I'm about 75% sure of that number, ask Jimmy for a better idea) people sign up we get cheaper shirts.
Halloween
Yes, it's October. Yes, it is Pumpkin-spice-you-name-it-we-make-it season too. And YES. We will be having a small Halloween get together. On November 1, we will reserve a room where we can congregate (most likely in Morton, but I have to see what is available before I give an exact location) and carve pumpkins, play some horror games and maybe watch a movie. Also: bring cosplay! Dress up! There is a high possibility some club alumnus will be attending and they take professional photos, so if you want some [free] photography of your cosplay, now is the time to get it!
Later this month we will nominate some movies and decide what will be watched. We will also decide how many hours we want to make this (the original plan is to hang out for 3, maybe 4, hours) and have a location for this get together.
See everyone tomorrow at the showing!

Fundraiser and Saturday Showing!
Good afternoon everyone! PR here again with some more updates for you!
This Saturday the 20th we will be holding 2 events.
First is the Fundraiser, which will be a Bake Sale at the Alumni Gateway across the street from either of the bookstores on Court Street. Set up will be at 9:30 am, the event will happen between 10 am and 1:30 pm at the latest. We are planning to make grilled cheese, PB&Js, vegan brownies and we will be serving cold beverages like Orange Juice and Cider. There are also possibilities of pumpkin spice muffins, french toast and other baked breakfast items.
If anyone needs to make a trip to Kroger for supplies they wish to donate to this event I - Maddie - will be giving rides tomorrow [Friday] during dinner break which has been extended to an hour to allow time for this trip. I have room for 2-3 more people if a trip needs to be made. Samantha and Ali have offered their rental house's kitchen on Walker Street for use to do baking if it is needed and Fajer has offered her kitchen to any girls who would like to join her and Bailey in her house at River Park. Please contact them (or me) if you need to "borrow" a kitchen.
Second is the Retro Gaming Saturday Showing! In early celebration of Nintendo's 125th Anniversary (and early celebration of my and Ryan B's birthdays which fall on the same day as Nintendo's actual anniversary) we will be hosting a get together in Morton 218 and 219 from 6 pm throughout the early morning hours. The room has been reserved for 5:30 so set up for any big events can happen if necessary.
At this even we will have WiiU and Wii games, SNES/NES games, GameCube games, 90's anime, Jeopardy, Karaoke, Cosplay contest and "Horrible Fanfiction" for those who wish to stick around and check that out. We hope to see everyone there!
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me or any other board members! We're more than happy to help you out!
It's almost Friday so hang in there friends!

Room Update: Friday Showings
Hello my fellow anime watchers and game players!
With one of two projectors in the 201 Morton room being out we talked to Chubb Hall and managed to get room 237 Morton. Hoping everything in this room works to our specifications.
We will place a note on the doors of 201 as a reminder of this change.
Thank you and see you all tomorrow!!
