DATE: 22 November 2012
In what could be described as a dream come true, the geography students of university of the Gambia came together to establish a society; which is aimed at advancing the teaching and learning of Geography as a discipline.
The first general meeting was held on Thursday the 22nd November 2012. This meeting availed members to formally form a society which shall henceforth be known as “Geography Society (GEOSOC)”. This name is arrived at bearing in mind that membership would not only be limited to only students of geography on active studies at University of the Gambia. At this meeting, it was unanimously agreed that membership is open to non-geography students, former students/members who may still wish to continue their membership, hence the name “Geography Society”.
SOME SALIENT POINTS ARRIVED AT DURING THE MEETING
• Review and validation of the society’s constitution. After minor amendments the proposed constitution was finally approved by members.
• A registration fee of fifty dalasis (D50.00) was unanimously approved by members.
• An executive was also elected to run the affairs of the society for the current school year.
• A committee was formed to process the registration of the society with SOHSA, UTGSU as well as opening an account for the society.
