[SSC] SSC meeting on Saturday + link to Political Economic Literacy project + Sustaining Alternative Universities conference

Sorry I can't be with you on Saturday.

I have booked hotel room for Michael Fielding and will be at his talk.

Are you leafleting for the talk on Saturday. I intend to do some next week.

Be,

Mike

> Hi everybody,

> I'm looking forward to Saturday's meeting and next Thursday's talk on radical education movements by Michael Fielding at the Collection. 
> Who's coming to that? 
> 
> Can we float suggestions for the Saturday meeting? I'd really like to continue developing ideas for all the things we're doing now, with the 
> Social Science Imagination course (maybe a short feedback from our meeting about this last week?) and other activities, as there seems to be 
> a lot of scope now for people to be involved in other things like open spaces, monthly seminars, I know there are people who want to offer 
> workshops, and etc. It would be great to hear what people are thinking and planning, and good to get some of the things we've been working on 
> up on the website. I'd also like to suggest that we could dedicate some time at the beginning to just clarifying some basic principles for 
> decision-making? Nothing hugely sophisticated at the moment, but we've recently had people in and out, and some concerns about processes in 
> meetings, and I think it would be really useful to have a clear shared understanding of where decisions about key issues get made and how. 
> Just thoughts. I'd be keen to know what others want to work on, on Saturday.
> 
> In the meantime, I'd like to share a link to an exciting new project organised by Neil Howard, Joel Lazarus, James Morrissey and James Sevitt 
> in Oxford, called the Political Economic Literacy project: http://www.peliteracy.org/people.html. I think it's well worth a look to see what 
> they're up to!
> 
> We've also got a website up now for the Sustaining Alternative Universities conference in December, in case you're interested: 
> http://sustainingalternatives.wordpress.com/. It's rudimentary at the moment but should be interesting when people start sending in details 
> about what they're bringing/doing there. We've had an amazing response...there is so much going on around the country.
> 
> Is anyone up for bringing lunch stuff to share at the meeting? 
> 
> Best,
> Sarah
