Why not? I'm doing things here in the interest of transparency
Speaking of, my motive in asking is;
I'm wondering why the College View grant apped for refreshments for their 'layout weekends' in the 09/10 period, when it's effectively a committee meeting?0 -

Well its the longest committee meeting I am aware off - aprox 36 hours if not more sometimes.
Have an issue with the way SLC spends your money? Take it up with them. I am sure the CV could equally start it in other ways, looking at some of the society expenditure - the CV made a case for the funds and it was accepted - transparency I doubt, trolling I suspect is more your motivation.
And as such I will no longer engage.0 -

With the greatest of respect this conversation ain't happening here.
Err... Why not?
On boards.ie there is a section to talk to the EU, Vodafone, the ESB, and a few others. Dublin City Council and some councillors from Dublin and elsewhere come on to other sections of this site.
Is it somehow above the College View / Journalism Society be talked about or even to talk to people on boards.ie?CollegeSpew wrote: »How many editors are there for the publication? (I'm afraid I don't have a copy to hand)
There's the editor, production editor, images ed, and editors for the following sections: news, sports, arts, media, features, comment. Most but not all of these also have a deputy editor or deputy editors -- there's around 10 deputy editors in total.
Although few of these editors and deputies would be around for layout -- which is normal compared to other years and other colleges.Well its the longest committee meeting I am aware off - aprox 36 hours if not more sometimes.

The think about transparency is the motives are a mute point -- this is a central part of freedom of information type legislation for good reason. To an extrema, in the UK it is illegal for public authorities to ask why the information is wanted, here these's just no requirement to say why.
The questions is is if the information should be public or not. And if there's no reason it should't be public than it should be made public online or at least released on request.
Again, who or why is a mute point.
Besides, journalists should not be afraid to show what expenses they have claimed from public money. If they are they have no business being journalists or asking others any questions.0 -
monument - thanks for that, more eloquent than I could ever have put it myselfThere's the editor, production editor, images ed, and editors for the following sections: news, sports, arts, media, features, comment.

OK, looking at their website(Which I can't be sure if it's accurate, it hasn't been updated since last semester) I count approx 11. editors. I presume that the College View know how many editors they have... and in their grant application, applied for a greater number of attendees than they knew would attend?Have an issue with the way SLC spends your money? Take it up with them.
Underway, before I mentioned it on boards.trolling I suspect is more your motivation.
trolling is meant to be subtle. In this thread, I'm being as subtle as setting up a new society called ESoc.0 -

Sorry.
Given that English is a living language, not a static one, and all of that evolution of language stuff.... that is a mute point.
Or if you want to be pedantic, 'moot' can still mean something that is "often discussed or argued about and having no definite answer" or something that is still open to debate. 'Mute' on the other hand works better to say the point isn't valid or important.
