During the brief CAB meeting, board members reminded club representatives about the budget packets and upcoming events, including the cancellation of the Alternative Spring Break trip.

Luke Wright, treasurer, reiterated that if clubs request more than $5,000, their budget packets are due noon Tuesday, and they have to schedule two consecutive ten minute budget hearings.

Clubs requesting less than $1,000 have to fill out the budget packet but do not have to attend a hearing. Wright said the sign-up sheet for budget hearings is in the Senate office. Clubs should not sign up for budget hearings until they have completed their packets.

The CAB account has $6,046.

Christine Kambarami, president, said the Alternative Spring Break trip was cancelled due to a lack of participants.

Laure Sinn, adviser, reminded club representatives about the Mardi Gras events this week, including an RLA mask-making event 7p.m. Tuesday in the Dakota Room and the Masquerade 9 p.m. to midnight tonight in the Ballroom. The dance is free.

Sinn also reiterated that Scholastic Day is Friday, April 1. Sinn said she is talking to some professors about possibly giving extra credit to students for helping with the event.

Senate also allocated $4,000 Monday for four TVs for the Cafeteria and two TVs for the Grill.

Adam Neumann, publicity coordinator, said the internet was back up.

“You can check Facebook now. It was a productive couple of days,” Neumann said.

Katrina Mundt, student events coordinator, said National Future Farmers of America Week is Feb. 19-26.

FFA events on campus include darts on Wednesday, a horse saddling contest on today, and Wheel of Fortune on Friday.

Trevor Dietrich, student trustee, said recommendations for the new student trustee have been submitted to CSC President Janie  Park. Her choice will be submitted to the System Office in Lincoln and then to the governor.

Riley Machal of SAC said that senate elections are coming up. Students who are interested in running for senator can get petitions in the senate office or online.
