Ok so here is what is going on. I've just been to speak to Jess (the societies officer for those not clear on that) who says that the petition goes to the Societies Exec rather than the Union Council and the next meeting for that is Tuesday so it will be considered then and they will be in contact on Wednesday to give me the decision.

This afternoon I went into the Exec office at the union and dumped the form on Jess's desk. Hopefully everything is go for consideration at the next Union Council meeting. She wasn't there at the time though so I'll probably go back in tomorrow to check everything is good. One step closer though.

Things are happening. We now have a constitution and have finalised the aims and objectives and such so I am planning to sort everything out and go talk to Jess today. Hopefully it should be all sorted in time for the deadline to submit to the next Union Council meeting and get the society ratified.

Hmm, so hi all. It's not been mega long since my last post though it has been over 2 weeks, 2 1/2 at least I think. Recently I have been absolutely drowning (and still am!) in coursework though. Well it's time to renew efforts I think. Especially as it's just a matter of finalising the aims and objects. Hopefully I'll have that done by the end of this weekend.

Ok so here is where we are at. Claire has filled out all her details as a comittee member so if all goes to plan, Matt will do the same on Monday and I can take the petition to Jess who is the societies exec and will take it to the union council to get it ratified. We also need to finish off our aims and stuff before final submission though it’s all going well as things stand.

We have now got enough signatures to complete the petition to get official formation at Leeds University!

We’ve just launched or slightly modified website. It's still one page but the page now looks prettier and it's been moved to leeds.atheistsoc.org as the plan is to hopefully add more chapters at other universities and locations in the future (I'm dreaming big :D ).

The petition is almost complete for the formation of the Leeds Uni chapter. We're still down a committee member but other than that we are pretty much ready to go.

I'm not really sure what I am going to do with the site and blog at this stage but the formalising of the society is going ahead nicely. I think I am going to move the site to a sub for when we (hopefully) add more chapters at various universities to the organisation. At the moment I just want to keep a log of what is going on with the society.

I am still looking for a committee member at LU and plenty of signatures too but if all else fails I can just get randoms to sign it. I have some potentials lined up for the possible place too.

It's still a most basic affair but our holding page has now been replaced with a page explaining a bit about the society and some basic information. More will be coming soon!
