Hey folks,

Publicity chair of Doc here. It’s great to see so much love for our group here, but I wanted to clarify a few things.

1: Unalove’s assessment of our series topics are pretty accurate, but we don’t restrict ourselves to directors or topics - anything that can be a cohesive series is fair game (I’m vaguely planning one based on aspect ratio, for example - if it’s voted in, it’ll be the geekiest Doc series ever.)

2: Admission is $5 for a movie, $26 for a pass - or free if you volunteer!

3: Unalove wrote, “getting on the committee that selects the films is like getting anointed the Pope.”
While that would be sort of awesome in a culty way, all you really have to do to get on the programming board is a) show up for the weekly programming meetings and/or b) sign up for the docprog listhost:

You don’t even need to be a student to be a programmer (or a volunteer, for that matter).

Anyway, if you have any more questions, email me!

Love,

Becca (& the rest of Doc)
