UCLA speaker to present at CSC

Sinn is going to ask Faculty Senate to allow students to attend the 11 a.m. presentation for extra credit.

Senator Katrina Hurley reported that “over 75 percent of the cameras on campus do not work” and that she “is working with security to acquire cost estimates to fix the existing cameras or to buy new ones.”

This report by Hurley was found to be false and according to an email sent by President Randy Rhine Thursday night,  “Chadron State College currently has 117 security cameras at various locations across campus. As of Thursday morning, 113, or 96.5 percent, were doing their jobs as designed.”

Treasurer Hannah Love reported $64,743.25 in unallocated funds.

If anyone has any questions about the Student Senate’s minutes and agendas, you can call IT and have them add you to the student association.

Student Trustee Jacob Rissler reported that the F’real machine “will not become a F’reality.”

It is still advising month for students to get signed up for next year’s classes. Dr. Brust also wants to remind students that they can still meet with their advisers even after February.

The overall consensus is that students would like more free bowling nights. CAB members are working with SayaLanes to determine which nights will work; however, they may not line up with the existing free movie nights.

Josh Mayer, a student who is petitioning to be on Senate, spoke up about his disapproval of campus parking, specifically the limited amount of parking for National Guard students.

Mayer suggests that National Guard students get a different colored sticker to discern their vehicles from residents and commuters.

Though Vice President Taylor Strong agrees with Mayer, she informed him that Student Senate does not have any sway in this area of concern.

Frank Warren, the creator of PostSecret, a mail art project in which people anonymously mail their secrets on homemade postcards, will be on campus Feb. 26 for his Galaxy Series presentation.
