After this, new members have been weaved into the fabric of the Engineers Without Borders club. They got to see their new slack and EWB email accounts. Slack is an online page that the members of the club use to communicate with one another on club activities and informal conversations. Their EWB email not only will let them use that email for communication, but it also gives them access to the EWB drive that houses documents such as meeting minutes, fliers, and information on projects. This is also a place where documents can be shared with the rest of the active members of the EWB-CCNY community. Just like the experienced members who use slack and EWB email to communicate, they can now actively participate in the club from wherever they are, rather than just coming to meetings. These members are Ariana Stefanidis, Christian Paultre, Izabel Zayas, Jan Pazhayampallil, Saad Ahmed, Sajid Subtain, Swathi Mettela and Zoe Filopoulos. This is an important step in improving relations and starting friendships with the members in the club. Good luck to you, new members!

After the presentation, Tala, Kevin, and Kseniya described the functions of the public relations and finance committees, so that the new members could figure out which team to join. They are the event manager, a member of the finance committee, and the leader of the finance committee, respectively. Then, everyone split into the two teams: finance and public relations. Those of us on the public relations committee discussed the Halloween bake sale coming up on October 29th. We also discussed other ways of reaching out to  people, such as posting more content on social media. Those of us who were on the finance committee discussed ways of improving funding and raising money through new methods. As engineers, we were thinking outside the box, considering several unconventional solutions. Keep an eye out for new things going on!
