III. PUBLIC COMMENT Sunny Martin, Campus Community Development, is looking for feedback about the lack of or use of the Student Handbook Planners. Looking for ways to improve and utilize student information for the next year. EXECUTIVE BOARD ANNOUNCEMENTS AND SUMMATIONS STUDENT BODY VICE PRESIDENT CANEPA stated that she has been doing research on the parking situation here on campus. She has compared prices and has information for those who are interested. She said that she knows that the Thomas and Mack has parking but it is just a matter of walking, but the campus is looking into other modes of transportation. I will be revising the CSUN Code of Conduct, if you have any comments please let me know. I need to meet with all of the people who are on the committee for the Student Teaching Scholarship that was due this past Friday. I will be out of town from Wednesday through Sunday. KUNV meeting was looking at becoming strictly a student radio station but calling it another name. Thanks for approving the money for the organizations. Election evaluations need to be given back immediately so that improvements can be made from the feedback. I will be at the board of regents meeting the first week of December. There were questions from SENATOR BASTUNAS and SENATOR GANNON. STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT PECK stated that she is sorry for walking in late, but it couldn't be helped. If you are looking to expand your leadership, the L.E.A.D. Team is accepting applications, they are due Wednesday. Talk with me if you have any questions. She gave clarification on the Technology fees and the residence halls. CSUN has four seats on the board and STUDENT BODY VICE PRESIDENT CANEPA and I were the only ones in attendance. If you would like to participate on this board, please let me know, the meetings are Fridays at 1pm, during finals December 17 in room 201. Sorry for any conflicts. Michelle Taylor came last week if you are interested in sitting with the architechs and giving input please let me know. There was a total of 16 scholarships given out to freshman and transfer students. Spending $250,000.00 is not the best place to spend this money. When I met with Dario Farrerro this week he informed me that their will be new pedestrian signs in place shortly, that are a neon green color, in order to attracted more attention to the crosswalk by the MSU. There has been a lot of people in the office this week, and that is okay, but please keep in mind that if people are trying to get things done by respectful. Happy Thanksgiving. There were questions from SENATOR BRINK and SENATOR MAIETTA. SENATE PRESIDENT FISK stated that senators had mentioned that there was a lot of bad spending going on, but I would like to commend SENATOR MAIETTA. Also, when I first became a senator there weren't any scholarships, and now there are, which shows a change in 9 SENATE MINUTES 30-03/ November 22, 1999 priorities. As for the parking garage, the university is low in spending, and promises were made and they didn't follow through, and now everyone is feeling frustrated. There are some attitude issues with the staff working in the campus safety office, they should work for DMV and not UNLV. We have an increase in fees and now there is a greater problem for parking than ever before. It is like a black box where you keep adding money to it, but nothing ever seems to come out of it. I don't know of any student who has extra money lying around, please keep that in mind, CSUN should not be there when they want to increase fees. It you take a trip this weekend be safe and have a Happy Thanksgiving. X. GOOD OF THE SENATE SENATOR CORNELISON commented about career day. SENATOR HAMBY stated "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR ANZALONE stated "Happy Thanksgiving SENATOR BASTUNAS stated thanks for approving Career Day and "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR SCHOENER stated "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR BOHLKE stated that she would like to wish SENATOR BASTUNAS a Happy Birthday. "Happy Thanksgiving." And have a good week. SENATOR P. MORADKHAN stated thanks to those liaisons who came to the meeting this week. SENATOR QURESHI stated SENATOR MAIETTA did a good job with the budget. STUDENT BODY VICE PRESIDENT CANEPAI would like more information on KUNV. SENATOR TURNER stated "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR GANNON stated "Happy Thanksgiving." And she agrees with SENATOR BASTUNAS, because she only is looking out for the students best interest. SENATOR M. MORADKHAN stated that she would like to hang up holiday stockings in the office unless there are any objections. SENATOR GREEN stated that he is looking to get something rolling with the parking garage, and maybe something will be done in the future. Also, SENATOR KNAPP "doesn't know jack." SENATOR ELRIFAI stated "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR BRINK stated that pictures were not being taken when I could take them, so I did not get a picture for the wall outside of the office, although I will bring in another picture of myself from my sorority composite to put in there instead. I helped out with Opportunity Village this 10 SENATE MINUTES 30-03/ November 22, 1999 weekend. I think that we are helping the students with the Career Day. Hotel College is having a clothing drive, so bring your clothes to the Hotel College for a donation. "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR MURPHY stated for everyone to have a good week. SENATOR MCLAUGHLIN stated that the $10,000 to Career Day was money well spent. Have a happy TURKEY day. SENATOR MAIETTA stated that he was in support of the item and the money. The parking situation takes a long time to go through the administration. SENATOR GREEN thanks for the information item on the agenda. Have a great week and "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR CORDONE stated congratulations to SENATOR HALE on Order of Omega. We need to watch our spending but this is well worth the money. The university is putting in more metered parking and more fines and they don't understand why the two things are happening, that is disturbing. "Happy Thanksgiving." SENATOR HALE stated that she would like to wish SENATOR BASTUNAS a Happy Birthday. And make sure that everyone enjoys the short week. SENATOR KNAPP stated Happy Birthday to SENATOR BASTUNAS and congratulations to SENATOR HALE on Order of Omega. SENATOR SCHROEDER stated that she really doesn't like sitting up at the front table with everyone starring at her, it is very intimidating. The parking subject is a sore spot with me, when the fee increase happened. I currently have $400.00 in parking fines. It is hurry and park or get an education. The north side parking is rediculous and the students shouldn't have to deal with this. We need a resolution and reduce the fines and then the parking re-opens and we don't have a reason to complain. I received a thank you card from a student who fell, the student health services couldn't come up and help her because of the liability. Student government was the only one who could get the cart to her and take her to The Student Health Center. We care about our students and we did that for her. It is amazing how little we can do on this campus. XI. ADJOURNMENT Motion to adjourn the meeting made by SENATOR SCHROEDER, seconded by SENATOR P. MORADKHAN. Move into a vote. Vote to adjourn passes 20-0-1. (SENATOR KNAPP abstained.)
