PILGFF (Pittsburgh's International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival) is at

of the films as a group.  More details about the festival will be 
available on the festival's web site:

NCOD 2000 (National Coming Out Day), October 11, 2000.  Several 
options were discussed at the meeting, including ad in The Tartan, 
table outside Doherty Hall (or in UC, depending on the weather).  We 
have only a few weeks to plan the event.  Claire will head the 
planning group.  Anyone who is interested in assisting - please 
contact out@andrew.cmu.edu ASAP.  More information about NCOD on the

cmuOUT T-shirts are still in the works.  Shirts will be available by 
NCOD.

Membership dues.  The issue was discussed shortly.  This is one of 
the ways to increase our incoming funds.  Other ways include 
fundraisers and contributions.  If we have more of the latter, we 
will not have to collect dues, or have the dues very low.  We will 
discuss this issue again the future.

Thanks for all that attended the meeting.

See you all at the next meeting, this Friday, September 22, at 4:45 
(and bring a friend!...)
