also explained what “Social Media” meant according to them. After that, Weam
gave a more specific definition and giving examples of Social Media platforms.
He continued by stating the goals and missions of AUBOC. These goals were
clarified by a timeline showing AUBOC’s previous and future events.
For organizational purposes, members are
divided into five sub-committees; each sub-committee is supervised by a member
of the cabinet and has an officer. These five sub-committees were introduced
during the meeting and members the sub-committees they want to be in. Also,
they were nominated themselves as officers to a certain sub-committee of their
choice. Interviews for officers are to be held on Tuesday October 15th.
As social media addicts, the members and the
cabinet didn’t forget to live-tweet the General Assembly using the hash tag
#AUBOC! It was a great start of the new academic year, as there only remain a
few steps before great events start commencing.
