CAB members select vice chair of programming

CAB voted to fill the vice chair of programming spot at the meeting 6 p.m. Tuesday.
Two students were nominated for the position, Vice Chair of Relations Trista Schell and choir representative Kayla Cameron. After giving a short campaign speech, the two candidates left the room. By a show of hands, the CAB members voted in majority for Schell.
The vice chair of relations position is now available. Cameron was the only person nominated for the job at the meeting. Nominations will be taken until next Tuesday.
Vice Chair of Finance Gavan Archibald reported the total spent from the CAB fund is $48,326.29 and the total remaining is $156,177.94.
Chair Morgan Carrico announced some upcoming events. The next two Free Movie Nights are Jan. 29 and Feb. 12, there will be water pong Feb. 3, and life-size pool Feb. 17.
Schell reported that CAB has asked Senate for the spring budget and urged students to come to the open forum at 5 p.m. tonight in the Student Center, where the budget will be discussed. Senate will vote on the budget at its meeting at 5 p.m. Monday.
Schell also said the student trustee and various senator positions are open.
Adviser Deena Kennell explained that the student trustee is CSC’s representation on the Nebraska State College System’s Board of Trustees.
“It’s a really big deal,” Kennell said. “The kind of person that you’re looking for is going to represent a broad interest of you as a student body.”
Adviser Cassie Mitchell reminded clubs to plan early for events they want to host because there are a lot of components to cover beforehand. She read off a list of elements that must be secured before an event can happen, which she will bring copies of to the next meeting.
Senate President Katrina Hurley announced a general schedule for Spring Daze. The theme will be “Country Western” to coincide with the performer the Spring Daze committee, paired with the Galaxy Series, is bringing in. The performer will be announced at a later date. April 21 will be a carnival, April 22 is The Big Event, a pool party, and the concert, and April 23 will be the final Free Movie Night. Hurley asked that clubs submit their booth ideas for the carnival to her by Feb. 7.
Sen. Carly Slaght announced that she still needs a CAB representative to join the Campus Improvement Committee, which meets 11 a.m. Thursdays in the Senate office.
