Approval of the Minutes

-Minutes from last meeting approved by acclimation.

Officer Reports

President Al-Greene – This Thursday myself, Dean Mitchell, and the representative from USA Today are going to meet about our paper usage for the papers we get. Basically we’re going to see if there needs to be changes in locations of the papers and things like that. Any suggestions?

Ramsey – Since there is a new Engineering building you might want to take that into consideration.

Ward – Allied Health building.

President Al-Greene – That’s an ongoing issue that we’re looking at, maybe putting it in the coffee shop or something. We also met with some people from Campus Recreation in regards to renovations to the SGA Pavilion such as painting and things like that. They’re going to look into getting price quotes for us and next semester I’ll bring back more information.

Vice President Byrd – I just need to speak with Weatherly, Bubbett, and Purnell after the meeting.

Treasurer Lawkis – We’re having appropriation information meetings on the 25^th and 26^th at 5:15 in the SGA office. We’ll do the actual appropriations meeting either on the 31^st of January or February 1^st and we’ll do a second one on either February 7^th or February 8^th at 5:15, so I’ll let you guys pick those dates. Our budget meetings will be on February 6^th and February 13^th.

Attorney General Arditi – No report.

Chief Justice Wolf – No report.

Pro Temp Wilson – Your office hours are due next Monday by 5:00.

Special Orders

Dr. Mitchell – This is the time to start thinking about next year and what you’re going to do on SGA next year. I encourage all the senators to talk to the folks on Exec Board right now to see if you would be interested in any officer positions next year. I think we’ve got some great leadership potential in this group, and I look forward to seeing these faces transition to some of those faces up there. I’m also available for questioning, so start thinking about what you want to do now. I also wanted to introduce someone from our leadership class. Her name is Samantha and she is one of our leadership students that might be interested in joining SGA next year. Elizabeth is also a peer leader for this class and her birthday is today.

Committee Reports

Chastain – If Rules Committee could meet after this meeting that would be great because we have to have our big meeting next week. I also need one representative from each college to be there.

Announcements

Vice President Byrd – Our last meeting is next week.
