Hello all,
Recently the events system was updated, bringing a change that is not entirely obvious. On some events, you may not see the option to RSVP for UNIV-101 credit. If this is the case, it means that all UNIV-101 RSVPs for the event/meeting are full. Please try another meeting.
Also, we are aware that RSVPing for an event and loading the site in general have been slow lately. We are currently looking into the issue. If you cannot get your RSVP to submit at all, please contact a TechServ Officer and we can force an RSVP for you in the system.
If you run into any problems with the system in general, please let us know.

For All UNIV-101 Students
Recently, we discovered the RSVP system, in particular for UNIV-101 bookings, was being abused with a single person booking more than one “ticket”. You may not, under any circumstances, RSVP more than once for a meeting, nor may you RSVP on someone’s behalf. We have now edited the system again so that UNIV-101 RSVPs should now cap out at 1 per person. General members, your “ticket” has not been changed. However, in order to clear out the abuse, we have been forced to once again reset all bookings. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, but you must once again redo all bookings you have made for meetings.
In the future, if we discover further abuse of the system, it will be grounds for termination of your membership for repeat offenders.
