No MIT swing dance tonight (room reservation had a problem)

Hi all,

The MIT Lindy Hop Society swing dance is cancelled tonight.

It's mostly my fault, I had messed up the room reservation
somehow and didn't notice it until now, and MIT won't let me
schedule the space at the last minute.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

The dance is outside this week, on concrete. Don't wear
your nice shoes! The weather forecast is 70 F, but
unfortunately a 30% chance of rain later in the evening. We
currently don't have a contigency plan for rain, so we might
have to improvise something if rain happens.

Would anyone like to teach a future lesson? Share your love
of dance!

If anyone is available to help me set up the dance, meet me
at W20-437 (our storage room) at 6:45 pm.

All MIT student groups are required to follow the
Massachusetts anti-hazing law and the MIT Non-Discrimination
policy. As required by section 19, the text of this law is
distributed below.

If you have any questions, concerns, or want to report
questionable behavior or violations of these policies,
please email asa-president@mit.edu (confidential,
non-archived) and/or Leah Flynn (laflynn@mit.edu, Director
of the Student Activities Office).


TEXT OF ANTI-HAZING LAW:

THE GENERAL LAWS OF MASSACHUSETTS, Chapter 269

Section 17. HAZING; ORGANIZING OR PARTICIPATING; HAZING
DEFINED: Whoever is a principal organizer or participant in
the crime of hazing, as defined herein, shall be punished by
a fine of not more than three thousand dollars or by
imprisonment in a house of correction for not more than one
year, or both such fine and imprisonment.

The term hazing as used in this section and in sections
eighteen and nineteen, shall mean any conduct or method of
initiation into any student organization, whether on public
or private property, which willfully or recklessly endangers
the physical or mental health of any student or other
person. Such conduct shall include whipping, beating,
branding, forced calisthenics, exposure to the weather,
forced consumption of any food, liquor, beverage, drug or
other substance, or any other brutal treatment or forced
physical activity which is likely to adversely affect the
physical health or safety of any such student or other
person, or which subjects such student or other person to
extreme mental stress, including extended deprivation of
sleep or rest or extended isolation.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section to the
contrary, consent shall not be available as a defense to any
prosecution under this action.

Section 18. FAILURE TO REPORT HAZING: Whoever knows that
another person is the victim of hazing as defined in section
seventeen and is at the scene of such crime shall, to the
extent that such person can do so without danger or peril to
himself or others, report such crime to an appropriate law
enforcement official as soon as reasonably practicable.
Whoever fails to report such crime shall be punished by a
fine of not more than one thousand dollars.

Section 19. COPY OF SECS. 17 TO 19; ISSUANCE TO STUDENTS AND
STUDENT GROUPS, TEAMS AND ORGANIZATIONS; REPORT: Each
institution of secondary education and each public and
private institution of post secondary education shall issue
to every student group, student team or student organization
which is part of such institution or is recognized by the
institution or permitted by the institution to use its name
or facilities or is known by the institution to exist as an
unaffiliated student group, student team or student
organization, a copy of this section and sections seventeen
and eighteen; provided, however, that an institution's
compliance with this section's requirements that an
institution issue copies of this section and sections
seventeen and eighteen to unaffiliated student groups, teams
or organizations shall not constitute evidence of the
institution's recognition or endorsement of said
unaffiliated student groups, teams or organizations.

Each such group, team or organization shall distribute a
copy of this section and sections seventeen and eighteen to
each of its members, plebes, pledges or applicants for
membership. It shall be the duty of each such group, team or
organization, acting through its designated officer, to
deliver annually, to the institution [in MIT's case the
Office of Student Life Programs (with exception of varsity
teams and club sports, who will deliver attested
acknowledgements to the Department of Athletics, Physical
Education and Recreation)] an attested acknowledgement
stating that such group, team or organization has received a
copy of this section and said sections seventeen and
eighteen, that each of its members, plebes, pledges, or
applicants has received a copy of sections seventeen and
eighteen, and that such group, team or organization
understands and agrees to comply with the provisions of this
section and sections seventeen and eighteen.

Each institution of secondary education and each public or
private institution of post secondary education shall, at
least annually, before or at the start of enrollment,
deliver to each person who enrolls as a full time student in
such institution a copy of this section and sections
seventeen and eighteen.

Each institution of secondary education and each public or
private institution of post secondary education shall file,
at least annually, a report with the board of higher
education and in the case of secondary institutions, the
board of education, certifying that such institution has
complied with its responsibility to inform student groups,
teams or organizations and to notify each full time student
enrolled by it of the provisions of this section and
sections seventeen and eighteen and also certifying that
said institution has adopted a disciplinary policy with
regard to the organizers and participants of hazing, and
that such policy has been set forth with appropriate
emphasis in the student handbook or similar means of
communicating the institution's policies to its students.
The board of higher education and, in the case of secondary
institutions, the board of education shall promulgate
regulations governing the content and frequency of such
reports, and shall forthwith report to the attorney general
any such institution which fails to make such report.



TEXT OF NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY:

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is committed to
the principle of equal opportunity in education and
employment. The Institute does not discriminate against
individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual
orientation, gender identity, religion, disability, age,
genetic information, veteran status, ancestry, or national

Re: Swing dancing, Walker, Shim-sham lesson 7:30, *Early* dance 8:00

Dance is still on, but shortened.

Lesson 7:30-8. Dancing 8-9:30. (MIT closes at 10pm, so we
have to be out by then.)
