SOARC:<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Space reservations opened up yesterday for next semester<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Any group that has not been Senate (re-)recognized cannot request space<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 SANKOFA can\u2019t reserve space technically but already have space given to them<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 SOARC has no ability to take this away<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Will reinforce By-Laws rules that groups need to be present at meetings<\/p>\n
Cultural:<\/p>\n

–\u00a0 Spirit of Giving is starting up; will be passing envelope around at meetings for collections<\/p>\n
Finance:<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 A Capella Funding<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Either pay groups based on concerts so they can figure out programming and arrangements<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Or give them money as a start up capital and allow them to use their Recruitment Line to fund their arrangements.<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 They have to fund arrangements themselves from then on out<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Prefer this method<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Talked to the Cigar<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Need to figure out what to do with the truck; replace it, get rid of it?<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Needs new tires as well<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 CSIC:<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Thinking about hiring a part-time trainer to be shared by Varsity and Club Sports<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Trainer would also be accessible to Fencing and other groups we oversee<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Hockey is the only group that has a trainer because they raise money<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Need to figure out how to organize sports group because there is no benefit to them to take on new benefits<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Taking in more groups decreases available money for other groups, since CSIC doesn\u2019t get more money for acquiring more groups<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Either provide them more money for taking on more groups, or the money that would go to the individual sports group through Senate should go to CSIC<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 We should do a Referendum and an Opinion Bill saying that Student Senate would approve the amount of Student Fees going towards CSIC<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Should be done by Exec, not Finance<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Should there be an increase in Student Activities Tax?<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 $88 per student and allows every group to put on big events<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 CSIC handles all the groups and doesn\u2019t get any change in funding no matter what they do; while SEC gets an increase in funding as needed for programs<\/p>\n
– SEC doesn\u2019t have a budget, they just get a blank check<\/p>\n
– Should do it as CSIC does<\/p>\n
– SEC gets more than CSIC and they can come in and request \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 however much they need<\/p>\n
– Other groups like EMA don\u2019t have the opportunity to put on big \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 events<\/p>\n
– SEC can ask for more money and then charge more for concerts<\/p>\n
