- Open forum/presenters
A. Dean Ball technology sports advisor and Rocky Lavoie.
Here to talk about the in service forum. Help with students finding information on the website. We are trying to figure out how to make this situation better for the non-students and students about getting the correct information. What can we do?
Tim: The OWLS are being left out of the loop.
Can we connect with students online more? It is suggested a SWOCC app for smart phones and using the student email more and more letters out possibly. Email pushed from the student email to their personal email. Students should really meet with their advisors MORE! They are the ones who should be helping the students with getting the correct information. Make a list of FAQ for these guys to try and get to the bottom of this issue on campus. Karina is putting something like this together for the new student orientation packets for next year. We, as ASG, need to go into the website and figure out what is not working well for students. We will bring these suggestions at our next meeting. We should poke around in the student email to find “Microsoft awesomeness.”
B. James Partman. Would like to be a senator.

A. President
Great to be back! Meetings need to be set up for the personal meetings ASAP. Need team photos up. Jared will help with this.
B. Vice President
Outline of Bill for the student fee autonomy has now been drawn up. We are waiting to hear back from the legislative council for legal support. This bill is for the whole state. Would like us, as an ASG, to support this idea and eventually the bill that comes from it. If this is passed then we could form a budget committee to decide how to spend the student fee and what it will go into. We will communicate with the students to get information about what the students need and want on campus.
C. Secretary
Talk to the Webmaster again. I have been locked out of the website.
