Minutes 2/5/19

Officer Reports-

Vice President: Exec. Board went to Trustees’ meeting. P and VP went to full meeting. Chartering of clubs was discussed, and a social issues policy was proposed (a copy of which was passed around). Next week we will have the opportunity to bring up any changes that we would like to propose.

Academic Affairs: Nursing--95% pass first time taking nursing test

Finance: AE but will share full report next meeting. Wifi upgrade will be an additional $75/semester.

President: AU in process of buying Brethren Center to convert to a place for veterans. Will be attending Summit soon. Will be speaking at Board of Directors Dinner. We tabled at the basketball game this past week with really good results; we will try to do similar things in the future.

Old Business: None.

New Business: Introducing new candidate for Kil Rep--Rebecca Young. She wants to get involved on campus and student life. Unanimous vote in the affirmative. Rebecca took oath and was sworn in. Handbook presentations. Matthew had harassment, hazing, hoverboards, and hypodermic needles. Harassment seems self-explanatory, however it is not specific when it comes to punishment. Hazing covers legality and that it will be treated as a legal matter. Withholding knowledge of hazing is also considered a violation. Hoverboards sometimes catch on fire, and if that problem is solved, then the issue will be revisited. Needles, explains safety, etc. Morgan/Jacob--IT. Goes over general email issues. Emails supposedly have a limit, but that evidently is not the case. It also states that emails deactivate when you graduate, but they do not. AU also has the right to look at your email if they find it necessary. Seems pretty self-evident. Jordan said that emails are in fact unlimited. Stu--integrity. Consequences are confusing because not all violations list consequences. There are a few typos in the section.

General Concerns: Not everyone received the notification about classes being cancelled. If you don’t have CampusShield (or have never had it), you may not get any notifications concerning these types of matters. You also likely had the option to opt-in to emergency notifications. It was suggested that emergency notifications be opt-out as opposed to opt-in. A good number of senators think they should be getting them, but they haven’t been getting them. Safety stated that they do not salt the parking-lots after someone slipped. It was cleared up that that responsibility belongs to facilities. Brian congratulated Tyler for his Social Issues and implores us to bring questions next week because the issue will
