Reports

ASPCP President: Garrett Bown

Since our last StuCo meeting, the two major things I have been working on is our board report and the E-Team meeting. For the board report, in addition to covering the regular topics, I have been working with Justin to put together an S&A fund balance request for the hand dryers and hydration stations. Additionally, I met with the E-Team and presented our Student Government goals. At the meeting, we briefly discussed possible roadblocks and identified who the E-Team sponsor would be for each goal. Mike Stocke will be sponsoring our digital engagement goal, and Choi Halladay will be sponsoring the rest. At this point, I will be working with Student Government to see how we will be working with these sponsors to progress our goals.

Vice-President of Clubs and Organizations: Quynh Huynh

Between the last Student Council meeting and now, I have worked with Clubs Board to organize our Clubs Fest event. The event was successful with over 100 student participants and 15 clubs and student communities throughout campus. Within this week, we had our Inter-Club Council meeting where four new clubs’ events and expenditure requests were approved. So far, we have two club events, from which we will work more closely with clubs to better promote their events.

Vice-President of Activities: Esther Larson

Over the past two weeks, I have been working with Activities Board coordinators to complete IEPs and contracts by this Friday. The winter quarter event’s calendar has been updated. We soon will start working on event titles and ads for the Raider report and calendar ads. Our board has been putting more focus on promoting our events for this quarter by working with our marketing coordinator to promote our events on social media. In one of our social media outlets, we have seen a 50% increase in number of followers, and so far, all of our off-campus events have sold out. Besides working with Activities Board, I have been sitting on selectionscommittee. I have reviewed and graded all applications and interviews begin this week.

Operations Senator: Andrew Willett

Over the past two weeks I have been keeping up with the food pantry and maintaining the food donations given to us. I have sent Sean an all student email to encourage donations to the food pantry as well. I met with both Jose Nieves and Brian Benedetti and asked them both questions regarding campus security and our sg goal Emergency Response time. I have written the agenda for this meeting and the minutes for last meeting. I have also been apart of interviews for our new open positions on our team.

Legislative Senator: Natalie Nabass

For thepast few weeks I’ve been working on setting up meetings with the representatives from the 30th and 31st districts. I’ve also been working on Student Government’s goal for free feminine hygiene products, I’ve looked at different tampon and pad companies to see if the college can start up a partnership with them. I also finished assigning students to tenure committees.

Student Advocacy Senator-Vacant

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Senator: Justin Malepe

Since our last Student Council meeting, I have been doing further research on my position goals. I have done some research on different campuses on having a space dedicated to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion. I have not heard a reply from Oneida or Eric Gimness on setting up a meeting time to meet. Also, had a 1 on 1 meeting with Committee Chair of my Tenure Committee. I had my observation today and meeting up with my committee on Tuesday to discuss my observation. I also met with a student who was referred by Deidre Soileau who is interested in the Office of Student Life and what we did.
