As for the honors program, it has no effect.

We can work around that, however. We\u2019re going to want to offer some kind of support for that however. This is still not completely accepted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kilduff:<\/strong> We\u2019re going to write an opinion bill on this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kilduff: <\/strong>Brian isn\u2019t here because he has a conflict right now. We\u2019re doing a cappella thing. The groups want to have a showcase. They need things like speakers. The problem is that they\u2019re not student groups yet so we want to go through the musicians\u2019 guild and have a cappella to be their guests.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weinreich:<\/strong> The problem with this is that we don\u2019t want groups that are not student groups holding big events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cicero:<\/strong> Is a showcase pressing?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kilduff:<\/strong> They want to get it off the board<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weinreich:<\/strong> My concern is that student groups will begin to be paid for acts and shows which is not okay. I just want to be careful going about this because they can get the same materials without being senate recognized; it lacks the meaning of becoming a recognized group. My problem isn\u2019t that the musicians\u2019 guild is putting on a show; it\u2019s having the musicians\u2019 guild having them as an act.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rode:<\/strong> The survey is coming out so make sure that you\u2019re doing it and that everyone you know is doing it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kempler:<\/strong> Amanda and I drafted the email to send to the student body<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cicero:<\/strong> Today I met with SEC SAA and tour guides for formal. They came prepared, and they really want to do it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weinreich:<\/strong> WOW wants to join Senate Formal as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cicero:<\/strong> It seems to me that we have a lot of groups trying to join. Also, the scholarship is due tomorrow at 5 PM.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solomon:<\/strong> Ace of cakes registration opened yesterday. Encourage people to do it. Also, I\u2019m pretty sure Adam Schmuter made a video last year for this, so I\u2019ll try to get that to play.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kempler: <\/strong>PANHEL and IFCs charities are out for philanthropy week, and if senate wants to collect then that would be great. They want things like paint canvases, clothes, stress balls, gift cards, gaming systems, iPods, and more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kilduff:<\/strong> We do have that adoptive family so we can do IFC\u2019s and PANHEL\u2019s along with ours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solomon:<\/strong> Don\u2019t forget to bring in money for our family. Just give it to me at any point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sim:<\/strong> Kim informed us with a problem with a conflict of interest and I submitted something about what Congress does and the clause requires more, apparently. We\u2019ll get more into that another time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lanoie:<\/strong> We had a long meeting this past week. We had a group of consultants hired by HRL called Anderson Strictler and the work with real-estate and they\u2019re real estate analysts. HRL contacted Katrina who contacted me to get a hold of commuter students. They got a good group of students who commute from all different areas. They asked basic questions like <em>why don\u2019t you live on campus<\/em>?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Zawatsky:<\/strong> While working on the bill, the spacing and the font will be fixed later.
