Postgraduate Course Committee Meeting - October 16th
Attended by Staff & Student Representatives

The meeting was mainly for the course leaders to report on the previous academic year and how well it went. The interesting things that came from the meeting were: 1) the ventilation problem and door in the Wilson road studio will be looked at 2) a coffee room will be sorted out 3) a notice board for events will be sorted. Also an information plasma screen (maybe this could be used to show work in the future although that wasn't mentioned) 4) workshops and possibly induction dates will be set for the following college facilities -photography darkroom -printmaking -sculpture studio -IT department Each facility will provide three workshops open for anyone to attend - beginner, intermediate,advanced. 5)The equipment lending service will be improved.

In terms of online students there were suggestions to get them an identity card, and make the online access to blackboard/library services & other college facilities easier to use.

The previous report was verified. we now have coffee machines!!!

The new stuff that came up is

1) the library is keen to expand the digital art book section - i have made a page about this. 2) the library has a plasma screen and they are keen to show student work in DVD format. 3) the printmaking and book students are organizing through their tutors a series of gallery shows in Jan/Feb 2008 - these will be outside the college and curated. They are open to all MA students - the first one will be on the theme of ABSTRACTION. Andy is getting more information about this which will be passed on. 4) Andy is trying to get us a list of the Elective Lectures which the undergraduates get but may be of interest to us.
