Citing personal reasons, CAB’s VP of finance resigns

CAB’s Vice President of Finance Jacob Muir resigned Monday, saying it was time to take a step back and focus on other priorities.  

“Time constraints and that sort of thing have kind of taken a lot out of me, so I’m kind of stepping back,” Muir said. “I’d like to turn my attention to other responsibilities and kind of move away from the more trivial student politics.”   

His resignation is effective Monday Nov. 4.  

CAB then opened the floor for nominations to fill Muir’s position. Jennifer Campos, a junior of Alliance, was the only nomination. Students may make nominations until Monday, when CAB will vote on them.  

Members then discussed moving CAB’s meetings from once a week to  once a month,  and offering workshops once a month to teach clubs important information about how to produce successful events.  

Many representatives agreed that weekly meetings had become nothing more than a thing clubs attended to share the events going on around campus and that there was no real purpose to meeting once a week.  

“Doing things without purpose is just wasting people’s time,” said Taylor Osmotherly, housing and residence life associate director. 

All representatives agreed to move the meeting to once a month and to propose the idea to the senate for approval.  

“There is no limitations on what this could be, but there is also no real guidelines that we’ve been given or that anyone really knows about, so we could turn CAB into whatever we want it to be,” CAB chair Travis Mills said. 

In other news, 129 students went to free movie night last Sunday, the most popular movie being Joker. The next free bowling night is set for Nov. 9.
