Officers will allow all students to finish their meals at their own leisure before beginning the meeting. When it appears that everyone is finished, they will collectively address the group, asking that there be an emphasis on cooperation over the separation of all divisions. For example, if Curse-breaking is having difficulty with a particular project, anyone who would like to help and could offer their assistance without neglecting their own division and its projects will be free and encouraged to do so. It has become clear to them that with such limited numbers and varied levels of experience, they will all need to offer their best in any context in which they can offer it. That said, they will make it clear that one's priority should be their own division even if they offer their assistance to another division.
They will also address concerns about rationing and the depleting state of said rations. The officers have come up with a few of their own ideas but rather than explain them to everyone, they instead ask if the students and professors present, all of whom they are aware had ways of supplementing and problem-solving with their own rations while at school, have any ideas or potential solutions.
As the meeting becomes less formal with discussion, everyone will be asked to update the officers on their divisions' progress in their own projects. They will be reminded that these are of the utmost importance. Currently, the groups who have ongoing projects are: Active Duty (practising spells/preparing for battle), Code-cracking (working on their own code), Internal Communications (working on the radio), Morale (lifting morale) -- other groups will have more upcoming projects, but for now, the officers want to know about these.
After the aforementioned discussions, officers will discuss an idea involving posting guards at various points around the camp. They were not pleased with how little notice they had before the previous battle and believe having guards in higher numbers will give them an advantage should the Austrians try to attack again without warning. They will be taking volunteers to be paired up and stationed and check points around the perimeter of the camp. They will need to be able to adequately defend themselves should anything happen and they will be responsible for alerting the officers and people at other checkpoints with the use of wand flares (a simple spell they will be taught beforehand).
At the very end, they will open things up to a bit more discussion -- a brief question and answer portion of the evening. Then they will thank everyone for their attention and suggest they get to bed early.
