Leadership Communications etiquette
- ALWAYS thread responses in slack #announcments channel, it's the one channel members can't choose to leave, and only leaders can post in.
  - There are a very few but genuine exceptions. COO will explain.
- Keep ALL conversation not directly related to a confidential topic out of #leadership_private, if not security/privacy sensitive, all discussion should be in #leadership_discussion.
- CC leadership@hive13.org on official business emails so others know what is being taken care of and what still needs responses.
- Where possible use a handle/login that clearly identifies who you are. Your name not you position.
Get an @hive13.org email if you don't have one.
Add your contact details to the Leadership Contacts to the extent that you are comfortable.

Discourse seems ill-equipped for handling leadership and warden email
- HTML messages get broken
- Reply and CC features break threading of responses
- Reply formatting is broken, replaces email context with discourse links and styling, does not present cohesive response experience outside our organization
Can it be made better? Can/should we switch leadership and wardens emails back to google groups till we figure it out?

AC was never actually designed to handle our space and functions.
- We got the largest units that would work with our furnaces.
Barely keeping up on hot days.
- Humidity and the heat of the building itself big parts of the problem.
Maintenance? Set up annual checkup with AC fund drive reserves?
Possible window coverings for the front windows.
