### Please detail the challenges encountered by the society this year. (max 500 words)

#### GDPR - Virtual Committee Networking
As part of our work on the Virtual Committee Networking we had to gain GDPR approval.
This was the most significant aspect of the 6-month effort as it involved various stakeholders:
* C&S
* GDPR Liaison
* UL Wolves
During the process we had to show what data we were collecting and to clearly show that it was being stored securely.
We were successfully able to gain both C&S and GDPR approval for this venture.
#### Engagement
As a Society whose core membership are digital first, inter-personal interactions are always pose a difficulty.
Understandably our (online) Discord server is a lively hub of activity where alumni are side by side with our college faring members.
In person events have always been an area we have had issues keeping attendance numbers up through the year.
For the most part this is because our members often prefer the online interactions.
The solution we have found is to plan out each semester in advance, scheduling a mix of events, from technical to social.
We have also done outreach to the students of CSIS, presenting in classes (with permissions of the lecturers) as well as word of mouth.
For example we were specifically asked to present to the ISE course.
