Hints and Tips from Bernadette. PLS READ!!

Hi Everyone, 

Being the only representative of our group today, I had a chat with Bernadette during the class and she said some super important points to help our project. 

1) FINISH EVERYTHING ASAP= We've gotta make sure we finish everything in our responsibility ASAP so we can get on with other tasks within the project.

2) VIDEO= We must must try and finish this ASAP too, and we need to find what our direction of the video is, and why were making it. 

She says we need to make sure it has an impact otherwise it is pointless, she suggests putting it on YouTube. The higher the impact, the higher the value of the project, and the higher the value the higher the mark. 

She suggested we take our video/findings into the public sphere (YouTube) so it can make an impact.

3) PETITION= She didn't really get what the direction of the petition was, and what we hoped to achieve with it. We need to make this very clear. 

She offered ideas of what we could shape our direction around, i.e. Quotas?/Positive Discrimination?

She said if we hand them to the Warden we need to be crystal clear of what we want from him.

Bernadette also suggested we change the Name/Age/Occupation/Signature on the petition to Name/Position/Department/Signature 

4) UPHILL BATTLE = The uni is going to want to suppress what we're doing as much as possible to avoid us exposing its faults. 

I think we should maybe get in touch with the 1752 Group, Goldsmiths SU, etc. and ally ourselves with them so our voice can maybe be protected and heard. This is only going to happen if we have a solid direction and an organised fight.

5) CONTACTING THE PAPER FOR SUPPORT= Basically the same premise as the petition, we need a final, strong direction to hit hard with.

6) FOLLOW UP KEY GROUPS/PEOPLE WE'VE CONTACTED= I.E. Follow up with the 1752 Group, maybe get a final, on the record comment from Saul, etc. 

Cheers guys!
