The Time of Year for Marathon Meetings

Long Senate meeting last night. A total of six bills introduced. It has been a strange year...we can go weeks without one, and then BAM! a whole bunch. It likely has something to do with the fact we have only 2 meetings left this year.

In case you're curious, the bill Jessica speaks of in this post passed 10-3-1. The passed bill is similar, although not identical to, the one she pasted into her post...students can get a copy in the office, and it will be online eventually at our website. (The authors need to forward the final to me, so I can send it to the webmaster with the next batch of updates)

Additionally, we took action on the Res Life budget and a couple of technology items. And finally, the introduction of a bill supporting the creation of a Public Service Center, an idea born in the minds of students on a spring break trip, and one of the most exciting initiatives I've been able to lend help and support to in my "career". If it comes to fruition, it will be a great thing for BSU and a huge, tangible victory for STLF-BSU and Senate alike.

Even after four years, I still love this job.
