Master and Associate Master’s Report

Committee Reports
SAC (Saybrook Activities Committee)
· Joint tailgate potentially on Saturday
· Will talk about holiday festivities.

Community Service Committee
· This week YHAHP Fest is going on this week – participate and cash in on those Durfee points!
· Community Service competition is on hold due to technical issues, but please continue to do community service!
· Kitchen-to-Kitchen still volunteers to take leftover dining hall food. Contact Layla to get involved!
· Also e-mail Layla to get involved with Conversation Yale. They’ve done trash cleanups, were involved in cleaning up the Green, cleared trails to make new bike paths, etc. Pretty low time commitment, and a good way to get outside and volunteer!
Bylaws Committee

Dining Hall Committee
· No updates, but Mallet and Aadi met with Fred Berg and discussed the nighttime dining hall hooliganism.

Intramurals
· Playoffs are coming up in a few weeks. These last few games are pretty important, so keep participating in IMs this week.
