Student Life Staff Meeting

November 10, 2009

Poverty 101

Plus

  • It’s done!
  • Great cooperation between Teresa and KT
  • Packets were completed in an afternoon rather than a couple of days
  • Chris did well in his role (enlisting faculty etc...)

Delta

  • There was a change in the script… but we didn’t change it, so we are not sure what the change was.
  • Is there a way to make it better? Well, that is kind of up to faculty. Student Life does logistics. If faculty does want to change it, let them know that we can help in any way… but it all depends on the connection to the classroom.
  • Need more time to train volunteers

Book Joy Jamboree/Kids Rock

Alison talked to Sharon and Roy about Service-Learning events.

Plus

  • The location was fine (SC 140s and PAC)
  • Coyote was great! Jonathon was very friendly.
  • Karen was a great Coyote handler
  • It did not rain.

Delta

  • Balloons got tangles
  • Sharon told us 10 groups of 10, but there were only 60 first graders total. We had extra cookies, students had extra supplies.
  • Kids Rock ended early.
  • Kids from Kids Rock liked jumping off the cement. (KT almost had a heart attack).

Hunger Banquet

  • Thursday, November 19th. 5:00pm-7:00pm
  • Expecting 260 students
  • KT asked Aramark for a bid… 32 high class dinners
  • What is the magic number? When do we turn people away?
  • Are faculty prepared to be engaged?
  • Chris will send over a revised script
  • Teresa, KT, and Alison will meet on Monday to discuss logistics and staff at 10am.
  • Yes, pizza after then event.
