Old Business
     Rec Room:
         - The arcade situation is no longer in our hands.  Housing will be 
              taking care of it.
     JudComm:
         - JudComm members have been going around to all entries.
         - Entry chairs should e-mail the JudComm Chair (Jay) to let him know 
              when their study breaks are.
         - Are quiet times necessary at MacGregor?  Burton-Conner has rules 
              about quiet times in the dorm.  Jay will bring a copy of these 
              rules to HouseComm.

New Business
     House Elections:
         - House Elections for President and Vice President will be on 
              December 5.

     Music Room:
         - The piano is now tuned!
     MacGregor Town Meeting:
         - There won't be a HouseComm Meeting next week.  Instead there will 
              be a MacGregor Town meeting to discuss having a Dining Hall at 
              MacGregor.  Eddie Cagliano, the manager of the Convenience 
              Store, will be doing a presentation about hot food service 
              options under the currect situation.
     Athletics:
         - IM Crew Challenge went well.
         - There is an Exhibition Soccer Tournament between H & D entries is 
              Friday at noon. 
         - There will be a C-League Checking House Hockey Game on Sunday 
              Night.  If you are signed up on the team and can't go, you must 
              find a replacement.
     Social budget:
         - Is the problem allotting $8,000 for social or is the problem that 
              people want it spent differently?
         - Ideas presented:
              The original purpose of the house tax is for social purposes.
              It seems that the things we spend more money on, less people go 
                 to.  The money should go to social events but not necessarily 
                 for parties.
              It is possible to decrease the party expenditures by $1,000 if 
                 we don't buy expensive hard liquor.
              Make parties more fun before decreasing alcohol expenditures.  A 
                 lot of people go to MacGregor parties because of the type of 
                 liquor served.
              We should keep parties because it allows for inter-entry 
                 interaction.  
              The reason why the social budget this term is so large is 
                 because this year is MacGregor's 25th Anniversary, and we 
                 want to make it special.
              We should try to get entries to go as groups to promote 
                 MacGregor spirit.

Issue to be discussed at MacGregor Town Meeting 
                         (11/15 10pm in the TFL): DINING HALL
