CAB urges students to question candidates

The Campus Activities Board talked about the importance of attending the CSC presidential candidate meetings coming up next week. Morgan Nelson, student trustee, brought the idea to the floor, and stressed that the students have a huge impact on the candidates.

“The Board has the final say, but they depend a lot on what we say too,” Nelson said.

Guy Mills, one candidate, will be in the Sandhills Room from 1:15-2 p.m. on Monday. Current interim president Randy Rhine will be meeting with students in the same room on from 9:15-10 a.m. Tuesday.

CAB President Dani Buckley, thanked everyone for participating in homecoming and called the events a huge success. She also told each club that if they had questions about the new, off-campus accounts to talk to Aaron Prestwich, interim executive director of student affairs.

CAB Vice President Lane Swedberg asked for input on what type of act the students would like to see on campus. Some ideas were Eric Church, Brantley Gilbert, and Jeff Dunham, but nothing was decided. Buckley also informed everyone about a possible installation of a rock wall, trying to see how much interest there would be. The possible wall would be built outside the Nelson Physical Activity Center, and much interest was shown.

Laure Sinn encouraged everyone to attend the last, regular season home football game at noon this Saturday.

She also said there would be a Native American presentation at half time to support Native American Month.

“Show support and get everyone there. We have a really good chance of going to the play-offs and they need your support,” Sinn said.

Darren Burrows, student activities coordinator, said the next free movie night will be Sunday, Nov. 18.

Kelly Aye reported that CAB has $7,769 in unallocated funds.

Sinn left the clubs with the idea of each club decorating an ornament for a tree that will be placed at the courthouse downtown. This will help each club be represented to the public for awareness.
