It shouldn't be an issue, at least as long as I, or some of the officers
that are responsible for that office get a heads up.  8-10 weeks is
definitely doable (assuming the attendance isn't that large... anything
around 50< would is fine).

As far as the 8-10 week re-occurring meeting,  the Office we use to host
these events is given to a student org, so under the current
"administration", you're more then welcome to use the office to meet up.  As
long as the university still likes us, and the people that end up running
the acm/lug in the future share our mind frame, then yes.

a slightly off topic idea:

what do you guys think of doing a hack-a-ton after the meeting?  or have a
hack-a-ton after every other meeting, I'm sure we can convince the univ/ACM
to buy us pizza, bring in students+open source enthusiasts work on code,
documentation whatever.  I know a few professors that are working on getting
UIC more involved in Open Source, so this would fit in nicely.  The ACM had
a sig-code session that could go hand-in-hand with this (geek gather and
talk about code, semantics, proper coding practices etc).
