Re: [m-hb] Guild meeting 5/6



Hi everyone,
Just a reminder that we will have an MIT Guild meeting tomorrow during the
first part of handbell practice starting at 7:30pm.  In-person will be MIT
5-232, and I'll send a zoom link closer to the time.  This is intended to
be on the short side, with no officer reports and just the necessary
business of constitution/new guild discussions and student elections.  Here
is the agenda:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DpNsyLaJQHh9HTdrHDdvr8eWVU41C_rMMxaXxucQ9EM/edit?usp=sharing

If you are a student, please come!  Once the constitution is amended, you
will make up more than half our membership, so this constitution is for
you!  You can also run for president or secretary!

Abby
