<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Hey guys, thanks to everyone who came out for our first meeting this past Tuesday! We saw some cool things and got some good planning done.<br><br>--<br><br><i>TL;DR: We need T-shirt designs, there's the event schedule except for guest
speaker, Charity Livestream thing will need some motivated
people to get it off of the ground, and Games++ is cool and needs our
help<br><br>--<br></i></div><br></div>The club needs T-Shirt designs submitted to the e-board by February 9th, which is a Tuesday a few weeks away. The designs need to have the official SGDC logo (found in the Student Body folder) on the front, as well as a Stevens logo (preferably the one with the Castle insignia) on the back. We'd like to order these in time for Let's Make a Game, which is a great transition to:<br><font size="1"><u><i><b><br></b></i></u></font></div><font size="6"><u><i><b>This Semester's Event Schedule</b></i></u></font><br><br></div>Thanks to everyone helping us out last meeting, we have decided on dates for most of the club's events this semester. They are as follows:<br><br></div><b>Game Jam VII</b>: February 5th-7th (Friday-Sunday)<br></div><b>Let's Make a Game</b>: March 5th (Saturday) (Babbio 122)<b><br></b></div><b>Game Jam VIII</b>: April 8th-15th (Friday-Friday)<br></div><b>Spring Showcase</b>: April 29th (Friday)<br><br></div>We will of course be talking about these events as they get closer as well. The idea for some sort of livestream or charity stream being involved with Let's Make a Game was brought up at the meeting. If people are interested that will definitely take some work though it would be very cool. I still have to get in contact with Doug Lombardi to discuss our guest speaker event for this semester as well.<br><br></div><div>Last thing: For those who don't know, Jeff Thompson, our former faculty mentor and the Program Director of the Visual Art and Technology program, helps host an event called <b>Games++</b> every year. It's a short, 8 hour game jam open to the public, particularly to prospective Stevens students. I attended last year, both helping out as a volunteer and participating in the jam, and it was a great time. He has reached out to us for help and support and will likely be coming to one of our meetings in the near future. The event is on <b>Saturday, March 12th</b> and all are invited, both to help and to participate. <br><i><br><br></i></div><div>Thanks for a great first meeting, and see you all next week!<br></div><div>Adam Gincel<br></div><div>SGDC President<br></div></div>
