Gave the newer Senators a slight history of the banquet, and reminded them that it is a good PR tool for the Senate. He is disappointed that the Bylaws Committee did not make quorum, they are too backlogged not to be meeting. Regarding the elections, acknowledged that there are complaints, but stated that this election is not as bad as past ones have been. Feels that the election and positions of Homecoming Queen and King are silly, they require no qualifications, and have no reward in retention of the title. X. GOOD OF THE SENATE SENATOR AGUERO-Thanked the Senate for the committee placement. Hopes Bylaws will make quorum next week. Feels it is a bad idea to eliminate the position Homecoming Queen and King, they are signs of tradition, which is good.

Is going to take SENATOR AGUERO up on his offer to speak with FISK's constituents. Kids day was a wonderful function, it should become a CSUN Tradition.

Kids day was a lot of fun, SENATOR SOLOMON put on a great show for the kids, but she is disappointed in the turnout from the Senate. Glad that the banquet is happening. SENATOR SOLOMON-The kids really appreciated Kids Day, they sent thank you drawings to the Senate. 5 SENATE MINUTES 26-30 / SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 SENATOR FLEISCHMAN-Kids day was great. Expressed concern that the track on campus is not safe for students to use at night.

The Watermelons should be picked up after the Watermelon Bust by Lambda Chi Fraternity. Thanked the Senate for the band hats, they look great at the games. Feels that the rules violations are out of control for the elections. Regarding the banquet debate, it seems that the Senate is always hardest on itself. Encouraged anyone that does not get re-elected to stay involved. SENATOR MOORE—Is attending a Faculty Senate chair meeting tomorrow, if there are any messages needed to be passed on, let him know. Encouraged the Senate to attend the game, and wear plenty of Rebel red. Kids day was as great event. Wished everyone luck in the elections.
