CAB discusses executive board positions, allocates $1,800 to free movie night

CAB allocated money for a free movie night, and opened nominations for executive board members for the second time at the Tuesday meeting.

CAB allocated $1,800 for free movie night after Christine Kambarami, president, requested the money. The event will be 7:15 p.m. Sunday at the Eagle Theater. Kambarami reminded students to bring their IDs.

Kambarami said that CAB would close the floor for executive board nominations next week. Voting for CAB executive positions will occur during the April 19 meeting. Kambarami reminded the nominees that their letters of intent are due 5 p.m. Monday to the CAB/Student Senate office in the Student Center, and explained that the letter should detail why the nominee wants the post and how he or she would be beneficial to CAB and the campus body. Letters are set to be read at the April 19 meeting, alongside voting.

Laure Sinn, coordinator of student activities, encouraged students to  fill out the FAFSA, or provide proof that they don’t qualify for the FAFSA, when they register for Fall 2011 and Spring 2012.

She said those who register for both terms and declare their FAFSA status will be automatically registered in a drawing to win either a high-definition, big-screen television, a blue-ray disc player, or an iPod nano.

Luke Wright, treasurer, said the CAB account con- tains $1,996. Budget appeals are finished, and the final club allocations are posted in the senate office window.

Seth Hulquist, adviser, revealed the prizes for the “Dress for Success” competition, which will follow the seminar. The prizes include $100 worth of Wal-Mart gift cards, a Garmin GPS, a Nintendo Wii gaming system, and an 8 GB iPod Touch.

A “foam dance” scheduled  from 8-11 p.m. today at the basketball courts south of High Rise has been revamped and rescheduled because of weather threats. The dance is now 9 p.m. to midnight in the Student Center lobby and will not include foam.
