Approval of Nominated Officials:
-Karl Floitgraf - nominee for Transfer Student Representative
-Laura Dukenshire - nominee for Transfer Student Representative
(Laura wasn't present, and Senate decided to wait until next week to choose the transfer representative and try to contact her in the meantime.)
-Chris - Athletic Clubs Representative
Approved
-Dana Hamdan- Academic Representative
Approved
-Shep wanted to talk about the Milner Hall representatives and whether or not to approve both people who ran. One nominee was elected and then resigned, and the other came in second. They wanted to collaborate, which would require changing the Senate bylaws.
New Proposals:
-Rugby - The members of the men's rugby team are concerned about the safety of their players because of the aggressive nature of rugby, and would like an EMT for their home games (Total cost: $400.00). They spend their budget in full every year.
-They may come back to ask for additional money if there are more home games.
-This is only an estimate.
-All other schools that they play provide EMTs for their games.
-They also asked for a golf cart and a trainer from the Athletics Department through Senate.
-Archery Club - The members of the Archery Club did not receive e-mail notification of the Senate meeting, and were not present. Senate will wait until next week to hear their proposal.
-Leah Begin summer work trip
-Leah needed to go through the college's travel agency and to get Mike Watt's approval for food expenses.
-She really just wants the program fees that went toward housing supplies.
-She is planning a work trip for Guilford College students over fall break to give back to the community.
Steering Update:
-Info. On Committees and Senator Sign-up for committees
-Committee chairs explained their positions
-All senators have to sit on one committee
-Mallory Malkin asked what the community thinks about the Campus Activities Board sponsoring a drag show. Many people seemed interested, and senators will bring the idea to their constituents.
