Senate plans for dorm elections, CAB treasurer resigns

A total of $6,000 was allocated to CAB for Week of Welcome events including, but not limited to, the hypnotist, T-shirts, pool party, and printing of posters and schedules.

Dormitory elections are in sight for the new academic year, Chief Justice Jon Lordino said. Students must live in the dormitories they are representing in order to run for a position.

President Dillon Spies said that positions need to be filled for the diversity, commencement, and homecoming committees. Senators from E.H.P.C.H.P.W. and Liberal Arts may fill the positions.

Laure Sinn, student activities director, said the theme for this year is Minions, and talked about New Student Orientation week. 

Meanwhile in CAB, Brenden Mead, vice-chair of finance, resigned before Tuesday’s meeting. The reason for his resignation was not given at the meeting. A treasurer’s report was not given.

Kelsey Empfield, CAB chair, reminded clubs about the Club Fair, August 28. If clubs need a table at the Club Fair, they should contact Sinn. 

Homecoming is also coming up Oct. 4. The theme for this year is “Welcome to the Jungle.” They are still looking for students to sit on the homecoming committee and if interested they should contact Empfield. 

Stephanie Steele, vice-chair of records, asked for an update of CAB representatives. She would like clubs to have their decision made by the meeting Tuesday. Executives also asked that clubs email Lordino their updated constitutions.  

One of the events of W.O.W. is a scavenger hunt. In 46 offices on campus and “hundreds” of businesses downtown there is a picture of a minion. CAB is asking students to take a selfie with the minion and then tag the picture with “#MinionSelfie” when they post their pictures online. Prizes will be given and there was talk of a 37 in. flat screen TV, along with other prizes. The scavenger hunt is going on now until Sept. 5. 

Jacob Rissler, student trustee, said he will be traveling to Lincoln on Sept. 6 and asked that if students have anything they want brought up at the meeting, contact him.
