+# Server building
+## NetApp + Compsoc
+| Date     | 2024/10/24       |

+| Time     | 18:00 - 20:30    |
+| Type     | Technical/Social |
+| Lead     | @silver          |
+
+
+## Overview
+We need to bulk up our storage options for both our vm host and our backup servers.  
+To do this we are looking at €2800 in hardware acquisition, mostly HDD's.  
+
+We got €700 in sponsorship from NetApp with the remaining €2100 from teh C&S Strategic fund.
+
+Rough plan is to have the event where we build the servers (maybe pizza as well for everyone not directly involved?), get them up and running, then at 20:00 head to Scholars for pints.
+
+### Long term
+
+Advantage of these upgrades is stability in our hardware, will make it much harder to loose data.  
+Secondly it also gives us opportunities to train people in enterprise grate tech/tools that they would be hard pressed to do on their own.

+Hey everyone!
+
+Next week, we're gonna have a session where we upgrade Skynet!
+We're adding 48TB of storage to our server! Please leave your jokes for the charity shop bookstore.
+
+NetApp sponsored us to upgrade our servers, and we're gonna build the server together in an event!
+NetApp is also promoting some graduate role opportunities so if you're interested in those you should show up!
+Free finger food included!
+
+We'll be at the Courtyard Room in the Student Life Building, as usual from 6PM to 8:30!

+### What wnt well
+* Good Conference
+* Payment through Wolves went well
+
+### What didnt
+* Arrived early for Mc Donald's and upstairs was unuseable for a while
+  * Contact them in advance next time?
+    * Many folks had poor sleep the night before
+* Bus was annoying to deal with
+  * Would be worth hiring a bus just for it
+  * Bus was ~700 if I recall

+Changing committee meeting time due to other stuff happening.  
+Games Dev now has an event from 18:00-19:00 on Thursdays now, several committee members are involved there as well.  
+Weekend is a shitty time for anything.  
+Tuesdays is the next best time, Games has their committee meeting 19:00-20:00, after Council, this would be the best time (for multiple reasons)  
+Does not suit Sean as he is on committee for Games, he recommends 20:00-21:00.

+
+### Skynet
+#### Meeting with ITD
+Had met ITD on Friday to talk with them about moving the servers into teh new building when it was ready.  
+They didnt like the fact that we had old (2018 at teh newest) hardware, although havign teh software so up to date was a big plus.  
+They also recommended that we ask Dell for sponsorship of new servers.
+
+#### GDPR
+See [GDPR Training](../Training/2024-10-22_Semester-1_Week-07_GDPR_Brendan) for overall info.  
+Core thing is that the bot was mostly approved, completely from a technical viewpoint, but with concerns about teh organisational side of things.  
+
+Brendan will be sending an email soon to Alan, Paul and Keith to recap it  
+Along with diagrams of flow to help explain it.
+

+    * The society can only subsidise **up to 50%** of any trip. (I know they have brought up that club members shouldn't have to pay for the busses but my understanding of that is that it is just the teams playing, societies act like the supporters busses in this regard)

+
+### Matters arising
+#### Extra funding from UL for UL Clubs & Societies - Craig.Quinlan
+##### Eoghan
+Us as C&S need more money, looking for suggestions from us.
+
+Trying to get us to move as one front rather than clubs v socs
+
+Rugby - Not enough for two teams to travel on the day.
+
+PBP - Maybe an open letter
+
+Computer - Last time funding increased, we got it by going through the senior leaders.
+Aisling - Discussions tab may be good. Management don't know what we do.
+
+Watersports? - They have the committee and numbers to run events every weekend but not enough funding
+
+Rowing - They are one of the best clubs in the country but have to borrow boats.
+
+History - N/A
+
+Environment - C&S is growing in number but the pot is growing but the funding is the remaing the same size.
+
+Computer - Maybe get bodies moving. Try to spin it as good PR for the Uni?
+
+Dance - Clubs not represnting the uni properly. They see other unis getting the funding to travel but they don't
+
+PBP - Funding per student remaining the same.
+Aisling - 2 years ago went from 360k to 400k by pairing back non-club and society expense. ~€100 per student roughly. This is a resource in general. Clubs need to go through UL Sport for new developments and new clubs.
+
+Final thoughts - Point out things that you mightn't have been able to do because you had no funding.
+Noreen - Add if people had to pay to represent the university.
+History - Would it be worth getting someone to look into other Unis about where they get their funding from.
+Scuba - Reach out to companies for sponsorship
+Aisling - Usually up to individual C&S to do so, but UL Wolves are beginning to look into sponsoring major events.
+
+
+##### Brendan
+Budget went up last time because C&S cut costs, not because of an actual budget increse.  
+
+Use "Discussions" on Wolves
+
+Exec will investigate how other uni's get their funding.
+
+### Start-ups and wind-downs – standing item
+See next council
+
+#### Startups
+
+#### Wind down
+
+### Extra funding from UL for UL Clubs & Societies - Craig.Quinlan
+
+### C&S Committee Support/Workshops/Training
+#### Eoghan
+GDPR week 7
+Treasurer workshop 3 week 8 - Need to attend this one.
+Budget week 9 - get committee to go to this maybe?
+Week 7 or 8 for greivence, email to follow for this one.
+
+Goal is to make all of this training virtual at some stage in the future.
+
+Spaces is limited, remember to book.
+
+#### Brendan
+More than just the designated folks should go to them
+
+Week 7/8 Greivences and Disputes
+
+They are open to more types of training
+
+
+### PVA Hours
+#### Eoghan
+Hours are accepted every 2 weeks.
+
+Council counts as an hour for the PVA
+
+
+#### Brendan
+(Got QR code to the page)  
+Might help for funding for C&S overall
+
+
+### Personalised C&S Gear
+#### Eoghan
+No personalisation, it's just for C&S.
+
+Originally only worked with Nike, things are now cheaper as they have researched other suppliers.
+
+No minimum order.
+
+#### Brendan
+(Got pic of slide)
+
+No Min amount  
+20-50 for hoodies
+
+### Exec Update
+(pic of slide)
+
+Discussion of networking time/day   
+Tuesday decided
+Clubs + Socs
+
+
+Bring feedback to council.
+
+### What's on your mind?
+#### Eoghan
+Dervla - C&S Capacity. Dervla is willing to support us. There is a lock on new memberships available should it be neccesary, all you need to do is talk to Lisa to lock and unlock.
+Events turnover at midnight, maybe change it to midday to allow an announcement to occur.
+Aisling - UL are using C&S to sell it by saying it's only €5 to join them at any time, but that is a miss-information.
+
+Dance - Budget is only 1st round, 2nd round is non-budget C&S, 3rd round is guests not in C&S. Doesn't always go to 3rd round.
+
+Environment - Is the Munster training ground in use all the time, might there be an oppertunit for clubs to use it.
+Noreen - They are completely seperate, Munster had to fight themselves to let the Womens team to use it.
+
+Drama - BICS & Hustings
+Aisling - Questions for hustings / C&S awards are changed to match BICS
+
+Environment - BICS drop-increased
+Aisling - No date set in stone as BICS don't have dates set in stone.
+
+#### Brendan
+Memberships can be locked if ye are at capacity
+
+For Bics the (UL) awards will mirror it
+
+
+### AOB
+
+Aisling - Jana's email over Open days. Email info email address if there are questions.
+
+Dervla - Flower fest is on in the Courtyard tomorrow
+
+Dance - Announce Dance UL are holding a fundraiser for Jigsaw, happy to accept donations.

+#### Startups

+#### Wind down
+
+### Committee Support/Workshops/Training
+Might be a HSO workshop next semester, this in particular is difficult
+
+### Executive Updates - standing item
+Information on how exec actually works  
+14 clubs, 13 socs have added to teh open letter so far.  
+~~13/37 - leet~~
+
+Timeline of open letter:
+* Tomorrow is initial start of writing it
+* ASAP
+
+Looking for more replies, especially ones in agreement with teh ones above.
+
+
+### UL Open Days - the impact of C&S
+Liam Ryan, undergrad recruitment manager  
+Open days, marketing etc....  
+
+Gave thanks to clubs in open day, not socs....  
+More showcasing c&s in teh future?  
+
+Fund available.  
+Clubs mentioned again  
+1200 fund this year, more in future.  
+
+Keeps mentioning clubs and ignoring Socs, despite saying Clubs & Socs...

+
+### First Aid Kits – Katelynn Cremin
+* She is HSO of Dance
+* Survey
+
+Asked if C&S first aid kit can be put in Kemmy since so many socs use it.

+# GDPR training 1
+## History
+GDPR started (originally) with teh (EU) declaration of rights  
+More specialised over time  
+Privacy in written communications
+
+From:  
+Written coms protected from gov  
+yo  
+Digital coms protected from corps  
+
+## Personal data
+Dead folks dont count for GDPR  
+userID would count as identifiable information.  
+
+Some data is protected, except under certain conditions such as criminal convictions
+
+## Principals
+* Must be fairly and lawfully processed
+  * 6 recognised means you can choose to gather and store data
+  * Concent trumps all other means
+  * Contractual and legal obligations are tied
+    * Obliged to gather
+  * public interest
+
+Wolves is joint controllers  
+Committees are also joint controllers
+
+* Rights of data subjects
+  * Right to be informed
+  * Right of access
+  * Human has to be involved
+
+
+## Enforcement
+The office of the Data commissioner got bumped up in funding and manpower  
+Most of the big corpos are headquartered in Ireland (for a variety of reasons)  
+
+fines got bumped, to big number and a % of revenue
+
+More power than revenue commissioners.  
+
+DPC are looking at a broad spectrum of organisations
+
+Loosing access to data counts as a breach  
+* Leak
+* Hack
+* Accidental deletion
+* ransomware
+* ....
+
+Technically having former committee with access to teh gcloud could ahve counted.
+
+## Compliance
+A creche may need to keep data of a 3 year old till they are 25  
+7 year timer starts once they turn 18  
+18+7=25
+
+
+Main areas of action:
+* Data breaches
+  * ye have 72 hrs to report it
+  * Find out what happened
+  * Fix the issue
+  * Mitigate issue
+  * If high risk to members then they have to e notified          
+* Data Access
+  * One calendar month (28 days?)
+
+
+## Misc
+### Why
+We (committees) are controllers of data.
+
+### Questions
+#### Skynet bot
+Had a good chat, will send email.
+
+#### Old data from before GDPR (home dirs and emails)
+Basically as long as ye want.  
+Best to keep teh data until either they contact ius or we contact them.  
+Give a clear options on what to do with it.
+
+#### Logging bot on discord
+Not a good idea

+## social media takeover 
+Mostly instagram  
+Required for a social media award  
+Treat the takeover as a story: start, mid, end
+
+For trips abroad reels are preferred, this is due to limitations logging in from abroad.
+
+vox pox = interviews with folks

+capcut - useful program

+
+### Once off
+What about cap-ed expenses, such as big expendetures?  
+Onces ye wouldnt do it each year.

+* No second chances for when budget is submitted
+* We do pay quarterly fees on the bank
+* Dont email Pamela
+* Once offs hasve some issues
+  * How does it relate to CapEx?
+  * Does not really count for future stuff
+* Finances are done on Thursday
+* For proofs limit scope to just the individual transaction
+* Extensions up to teh 15th of July this year
+  * This is because the later they go the more delayed budgets are in Sept
+* Use the drop in sessions
+* Documentation on Wolves is pretty good
+* Invoices with balance of 0
+  * Or as we do, include the bank transaction (revolut/n26)
+* 3 core to sign off budget
+* Make it as easy as possible for ofice to Follow
+* For capitation would like a min of €50
+  * PDF with teh reciepts merged
+* FAQ is an option for the common questions
+* Stuff in summer after teh cutoff count for next year
+  * Can project it in the current budget for next year
+* No FedEx/Customs charges to be submitted to the budget
+
+### Credit Card
+Capitation of 1000, Bill of 1500?
+Can send a payment to C&S, but takes lead time.

+# Fundraising
+
+| C&S      | Training       |
+|----------|----------------|
+| Date     | 2024-10-04     |
+| Time     | 17:00 - 18:00  |
+| Location | Courtyard Room |
+
+### Fundraising
+- Don't aim for Low 100s, aim for 1000s
+- Try to start local before you go national
+- Find value of the items online
+- Ask people to send an email that just confirms that they've supported your thing
+- Receipts receipts receipts
+- You have to break even with any event so don't spend above your means
+- Start working on fundraising plans on the summer or early September
+- Get a routine and regular events, like "We always have PyCon every Nov"
+
+### Sponsorships
+- Try to stick to your guns
+- You can use existing sponsorships to get special apps
+- Consider establishing separate packages with different promotional tiers
+- If you get items, get them sent to the C&S office
+- You can take a picture of the receipt that comes with those items
+- You can then show that reciept as income, even if the company didn't give you cold hard cash
+- Follow other clubs and societies with what they do
+- Ask that, if there are customs fees, can the other side cover it
+- It's totally worth asking from international folks, but make a good offer
+- Sponsorship proposal:
+  - Introduction
+  - Benefits to Sponsors
+  - What you can offer [Consider sponsorship packages]
+  - Call to action
+- Income HAS to be 50% of expenditure or else you get your budget obliterated
+- Create induvidual canva docs for each package [sounds like a pain]
+
+### Misc
+- Consider using Canva Pro, but you need to pay 10/mo for it.
+- Official PRO position: CANVA IS CRINGE. CANVA USERS GET EATEN.
+- Book the insta takeover on ulwolves in <https://cp.ulwolves.ie/requests/facilities>
+- Ulwolves page doesnt let you book insta takeover on weekend, but you should be allowed to do it
+- You can request a flag, gopro, insta takeover or videographer
