[unyoc-planning] Meeting Recap of CE decisions

[Porcello, Lorraine]

Good morning, Sarah,

I hope that you enjoyed your time off.  I'm writing follow up with you about the CE discussion we had at the planning meeting last Friday<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jfPXmh_4CEyURwRZuI02FaCauZoX5AsibH8zj03vGMU/edit>.

I shared a concern about the fact that the CE by Katherine and Alex is currently available for free via the MLA website.
There were two counter points for this concern.  First, some people are not MLA members. Second, the UNYOC'24 CE will be slightly longer (2 hours vs 90 minutes), and we assumed that it would have either more or slightly different content.  Can you please confirm with Alex that this is the case?

Regarding the cost of the CE, we agreed that $500 is an appropriate stipend, and well within our budget.
We also discussed the possibility of vendor sponsorship of the CE.  Jessica from Region 7 elected to sponsor one of the breakfast slots at the meeting. Jennifer McKinnell will contact the other vendors to see if anyone might be interested.

Regarding member registration fees, the majority felt that keeping the price point at $25/$55 is appropriate, but we could offer a discount to students ($15).
Michael suggested that we use a coded registration form, so that anyone claiming to be a student must provide verification via the UNYOC Gmail account. We would respond to these verifications with a promo code that they would use to register at the website.
I suggested that you and I would monitor the Gmail account to be sure that we respond to student interest in a timely manner.  Does that sound feasible to you?

For hosting the CE, Sarah Holsted graciously offered us the use of the Zoom account at Southeastern NYLRC.

I think this is everything. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best,
Lorraine
