5. From Ms. Setiady:
Would ASC be interested in co-sponsoring our May Magis Movie Day on Monday, May 15th? We will be screening the film "The Grace Lee Project" and having a discussion afterwards. The 15th is the latest we can have Movie Day because the last GOYB write up is due on the 17th. 

• Gen/Rachel- email Ms. Setiady to get more details 

Response on Wednesday:

Hi Rachel,

Great! We are excited that you are interested in co-sponsoring. There is not necessarily anything you need to do other than promoting the event to ASC. We will include ASC's name on the posters and in promoting the event on SITV and Twitter. 

Thanks,

Ms. Setiady
