Hi dear Rainbowists!

Agora is approaching, I hope all the Locals already received the Agora booklet and that delegates are going to make a good use of that to prepare for the Agora!
Still there are few rules that had not been included in the booklet and that have been spread among AGORA-L by the Chair.
As SubCommissioner, responsible for Statutory Meetings together with Tamara from AEGEE-Maribor, I tought of better re-post an extract of that e-mail also to RAINBOW-L as I saw not all delgates are yet subscribed to AGORA-L

What is this about? Just few simple rules for the presentation that Locals are planning to do at the Agora (for all those who doesn't know: during the plenary session, there's alway a frame in which Locals have the chance to make a presentation to promote their future events/activities in front of the Agora)
The pourpose of these little rules is to limit too long and too "complex" presentation, specially those supported by .ppt and audio, in order to give an equal chance to every local and in order to avoid waste of time that during Agora is never so much!;-)

You have been given a chance to promote your future events and sticking to these simple rules will help you not to fail in the presentation because of cuts or technical problems!
Good luck!

Subject: [AGORA-L] Powerpoint presentation rules for Amsterdam!


> Dear members of AEGEE,
> 
> (...)
> 
> Therefore on behalf of the local organisers and the Chair Team, we would
> like you to think of the following aspects if you want to have a powerpoint
> presentation at the Agora in Amsterdam:
> 
> 1. Please hand in your pp in time! Lists for signing in for a presentation
> (with pp or without, it does not matter!) will be available from the first
> day onwards. The moment of signing in would also be the moment to hand in
> your pp.
> 
> 2. A presentation shall not take more than 2 - 2,5 minutes. It is
> not fair for locals if some stick to this rule while others make 15 to 25
> minute presentations. Therefore, if a presentation is too long, the Chair
> team will reserve the right to cut it down to 2 - 2,5 minutes without
> exception.
> 
> 3. Handing in the pp on disks or cd-roms is both fine as long as there is
> more than enough time to install them on the laptop and make them ready for
> running (at least one hour before)
> 
> 4. If you want to have music with your presentation it should be on the same
> CD-rom as the PP itself. Please do not hand in one disk for the presentation
> and one disk for the music. This makes the logistics much more complicated
> (e.g. music and presentation have to start in time, disks both have to be in
> and ready, it takes more time to prepare for the next PP after a
> 'complicated' presentation, etc.)
> 
> 5. Presentations of Summer Universities will not be allowed.
> 
> 6. If you have any other SPECIAL requirements regarding your presentation,
> please talk to Valerie-Anne or me FIRST. Do not try to test our
> improvisational talents by surprising us at the spot!
> 
> I hope you can understand these restrictions in the PP format. They are
> really necessary to make it more clear and easier for all of you to follow
> each local presentation with maximum attention. We therefore hope very much
> you will consider these points when coming to Amsterdam!
