Senate approves amends to CAB bylaws

Senate passed the amended CAB bylaws in the Monday meeting, that are now in affect. Any absences prior to this week will not count against members.

Three to four absences during the academic year will result in the clubs’ president and adviser receiving a warning email.

Five absences will result in the suspension of the clubs allocated funds.

CAB treasurer reported $8,408.52 in unallocated funds.

The spring Career Fair is from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., Friday. About 30 businesses and agencies are expected to attend, with the possibility of more. Students should come to learn about potential jobs, internships, and to gain valuable contact information.

Vice Chair of Records Stephanie Steele still needs updated packets, adviser agreements, and constitutions from several clubs. Not updating these files could affect the clubs’ budget hearings.

The deadline to turn in everything is Feb. 24.

There was a great turn out at the free bowling and movie nights last weekend. CAB members discussed a possible free bowling night before every free movie night each semester.

Laure Sinn also brought up the possibility of promoting a theme night for the activities, such as an 80s workout theme.

The CAB members had to implement a new rule stating that if any student left the building they would not be permitted back in, to prevent students from drinking in the parking lots.

Vice Chair of Programming Chelsea Evans reported that students who attended the activities were very polite and cooperative.

In light of the recent tragedies on campus, Dr. Bue wanted to make it known that this is an opportunity for student leaders to focus on issues with substance and significance.

As leaders we should ask ourselves, “What kind of change can we impact on campus as well as within our clubs and organizations,” he said.
