How should the Exec interact with Societies?

So, I’m currently sat with Simon Patterson on a train to Doncaster, en route to Sheffield and eventually Sheffield Hallam University, all for the BFFS (British Federation of Film Societies) Student Cinema Conference. This, is of course, a trip on behalf of the Abertay Film Society – unfortunately it’s President wasn’t able to make it and so I feel the time is right for a blog I’ve been meaning to write. Where should the Executive be helping Societies and their Committee’s along the way…

"We shall not, we shall not be merged" - or so our chant went... but why not? It seemed obvious to the Executive Committee here and still seems obvious to me but I'm regularly asked why the merger was such a bad thing. So I'm going to (attempt to) objectively look at the situation here.
