Rebel Yell Report VI. EXECUTIVE BOARD ANNOUNCEMENTS VICE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE ANDERSON: The senate really failed. How can the executive board go a whole year without administrating scholarships?!! Scholarship applications will be redone. I don't know how they got approved. For the upcoming school year, the Scholarship Committee will have to redo them. If you're going to be in this position, question why these scholarships were not put out. Basically, you're paying me to sit around and do basically nothing. In regards to the bylaw, keep it in mind when it comes forward. VICE PRESIDENT GOATZ: Last week, the executive board spent twelve hours going over applications for directors. We've chose with your approval. With new directors, we can hopefully construct new manuals. PRESIDENT SCHUCK: I leave to Board of Regents tomorrow for Elko, Nevada. I'll be there the rest of the week. If there are any questions please refer them to Vice President Goatz. I'll be able to check my e-mail. We've had few meetings about bring a shuttle service on to campus. The carts on campus are a huge liability. They have to be ADA compliant. The largest cart we can get can only seat six people and costs the same as a bus. They break down all the time. Our focus has shifted from a cart service to an actual 14 person bus. It would go from Thomas and Mack to McDermott to the Lied Library, up the walkway to Dungan. The shuttle bus that seats 14 is same cost as cart. Options: lease for a year, airport may want to outsource. We're waiting for survey data from research center. $8k spent on the survey so it's a good idea to see how students want their money spent. We met with Yvette Kell and were able to knock off $ for intramural field. She took off a day. We were forced to stop pay for former Vice President Nick Christiansen and former President Monica Moradkhan. They're supposed to serve as consultants for two weeks after their term. 3 Former Vice President Christiansen wasn't there. Former President Moradkhan was out of the country. The money's there to serve as consulting fees. So until they do put in their consulting time, we've placed a stop on their checks. We held an Executive Board meeting and we got some good candidates for directors and senators. SENATOR CAZARES: Are you planning on having a bus stop on the north side of campus? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: The best way right now is to go through the middle of campus. SENATOR MACDONALD: I was going to ask the same about the north side of campus SENATOR MULLINAX: 14 people? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: Without a commercial driver license. SENATOR MULLINAX: A shuttle that carries only 14 people is a waste of $30, 000. PRESIDENT SCHUCK: We were going to start off with two. It's something I envision administration picking up with all the construction going on. I'll set up a meeting. We can use it to shuttle people to football games, too. SENATOR ESPINOZA: What about the constitutional revisions that were passed in April? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: Constitutional revisions passed by students. Monica forgot to get it on the agenda. It's not going to be on the agenda in Elko. It never went. Board of Regents had no idea about it. I'll have it on the next meeting in August before fall. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI: finally got the mailboxes done. I'm going to run down this list, hoodie, polo, size and color. VII. PUBLIC COMMENT SENATE PRESIDENT AMESQUITA: Senator positions are on there. Both these candidates turned these applications in well before Friday. When it comes up, I would suggest you just waive the bylaw. Today's the day you decided to vote. Both education senators are not here. SENATOR HOLMQUIST: How long has it been marketed? 4 SENATE PRESIDENT AMES QUIT A: I've been relying on people on senate to find out who is interested. I'm sure people who applied are people who are friends with senate or have already been involved in and around senate. Once we get directors by the next meeting, we'll be planning a retreat for some time in July. SENATOR CRAWFORD: Who's picking up? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: 2 e-mails sent to Moradkhan to get logins and passwords for ASGA and she hasn't given me any logins or passwords. I'll contact e director and get new logins for everybody. VIII.

SENATE PRESIDENT AMES QUIT A: There could have been depending on how many nominations came from the executive board. Can someone on the executive board tell us why she was the only one forwarded. VICE PRESIDENT GOATZ: we felt she would be best for the job. She was an assistant director. You can ask her any additional questions. SENATOR CAZARES: I yield so she can give her presentation: ES MADRIGAL: I was assistant director for CSUN services this year. I had to leave school for about 2.5 months between October and January. I was given the option of staying or backing down from my position, and here I am. I chose to stay, hoping that you will welcome me into this position. I have a letter from Anisa Izzolo. I have past experience. I've been in a few student organizations on campus. Entertainment and Programming, student services, I'm a student ambassador, which makes it easier to access alumni and administration. The budget is one that Anisa used last year. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. SENATOR CAZARES yields SENATOR MACDONALD: What do you think was the greatest weakness and how do you pan to fix it?

SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: I was on the board and know that Mr. Arneson is very qualified and feel that he's the best person for the job. SENATOR CAZARES: plans?

SENATOR SUMNER: Is he the only one? SENATE PRESIDENT AMESQUITA: From my understanding each position had only one person for today PRESIDENT SCHUCK: The idea was that we would pick one person who we thought was best for each position. SENATOR CRAWFORD: Why is Aaron the best? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: Aaron has the most experience. There are so many details you need to be familiar with and his assistant directorship really set him apart. 17-0-0 Amendment passes unanimously 17-0-0 Motion passes unanimously W.

SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI 2nds SENATOR CRAWFORD: What is this media company? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: Web development company. I've looked at about fifteen different websites for student governments. The design by Taylor was by far the best organized. There are five different phases set up in website design. We don't have a solid way of communicating with our students. Phase one is server set up. Phase 2 is graphic design and layout. 3 is content management system. It sets up so that the next O.S.I, director will be able to pull stuff off and put stuff on easily. Phase 4, importing and organizing content. Phase 5 is features we'll add on the website. It'll have a bulletin 13 board system for new events. Voting system. It takes about 5 weeks to complete. It's a contract so if it's not done to our standards, we don't have to pay all of it. SENATOR CRAWFORD: A few things I'd like to see are archived minutes, bylaws, i-pod instead of tape recorder. We can record senate mtgs. SENATOR MACDONALD: Why didn't you submit the contract when you submitted the action item? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: We didn't have the contract yet but wanted it on the agenda. SENATOR MACDONALD: Doesn't it need to sit on the agenda? PRESIDENT AMESQUITA reads senate bylaw 53. SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: Are we in the amendment right now? 15-0-2 Amendment passes.

SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: This would be the best way so it's on the agenda and we get contracts. PRESIDENT SCHUCK: Can we hold on for 30 seconds. We're finding out if it's a proposal or a contract. SENATOR MULLINAX: Is it time sensitive? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: No, I just wanted to get it up because it's the worst looking website I've ever seen. It's horrendous. SENATOR MULLINAX yields. 14 SENATOR CAZARES: Will he not work on it 'til then? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: I don't know. I urge you to waive the bylaw. It's something you've been needing for years. SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: Since it is a contract, it is case sensitive. It's our job to look over stuff like this. If we waive it, we're not doing our jobs. SENATOR SOLDANO: I believe it's a proposal. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI: A proposal is in essence an offer, and a contract. Either way you try to cut it. yield SENATOR HOLMQUIST: Why would you approve money for a proposal? SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: I don't think we can approve money until there is a contract. VICE PRESIDENT GOATZ: I would recommend you put "upon approval of contract" into the action item. SENATOR MULLINAX: this is a good idea, let's put the money aside. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI: The item's gonna come back on us. We might as well trust the e-board and Jesse Taylor. 4-6-7 Motion to postpone FAILS SENATOR JIMENEZ, SENATOR FRIEDLIEB, SENATOR ESPINOZA, SENATOR CRAWFORD SENATOR LEE, SENATOR MACDONALD, SENATOR DONNELLY, SENATOR MULLINAX, SENATOR ZANDER, SENATOR SANTIAGO Oppose SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI: moves to waive bylaw 53 2nd by no one. Motion FAILS. SENATOR DONNELLY moves to amend by inserting "upon approval of contract" after "budget." SENATOR CONWAY 2nds. 15 SENATOR CRAWFORD: I think the i-pod thing I was talking about is really important. I'm sure if PRESIDENT SCHUCK speaks to Jesse about it, it's going to raise the price and we'll be revisiting this action item. 9-5-3 Motion to amend PASSES SENATOR FRIEDLIEB, SENATOR JIMENEZ, SENATOR CRAWFORD, SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI, SENATOR SOLDANO oppose SENATOR MACDONALD, SENATOR CAZARES, SENATOR ZANDER abstain.

As submitted by Senate President Pro-Tempore SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI on behalf of the Executive Board. PRESIDENT SCHUCK: I'll make sure that's in the contract. It's a dual party agreement. SENATOR CRAWFORD: Can you ensure that it won't increase the cost at all? VICE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE ANDERSON: It's a sign of good faith on our part that we will honor our part. But he will not start working on this until it's approved. Either way it gets revisited. SENATOR DONNELLY: It says upon approval of contract. Let's just let him start. It's Jesse Taylor. He's a nice guy.

SENATOR FRIEDLIEB: In Ways and Means, something we're proposing with WSA is upon approval of budget, we're thinking of having all cultural events come through student affairs and having the board decide. SHERRELL BLOOD: I think it would be a good idea to have that come through NSA. The board met a few times, but no other board members were utilized. SENATOR SUMNER: Since they're making changes to your budget, can you stay within it? SHERRELL BLOOD: Yes. SENATOR MACDONALD: What do you think the biggest weakness was and how do you plan on changing it? SHERRELL BLOOD: People never coming to meetings. SENATOR SANTIAGO: Question for e board. Why didn't the e-board forward Jessica Adler? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: The vote was unanimous for Ms. Blood. She was the most qualified. 13-0-4 Action Item X PASSES SENATOR CORPUZ, SENATOR SANTIAGO, SENATOR MACDONALD, SENATOR ZANDER abstain 17 Y.

As submitted by Senate President Pro-tempore SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI on behalf of the executive board. SENATOR CAZARES moves to approve SENATOR FRIEDLIEB 2nds SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE CIANCI moves to strike "one (1) CSUN member" and insert "TYLER WISTISEN." SENATOR DONNELLY 2nds. SENATOR CAZARES: Have you served on Rebel Radio before? TYLER WISTISEN: I worked with our entertainment program. I also have experience with html, C++. I was the manager of a pool, so I have experience with people underneath me, taking charge of people. I know music: I know how to program layout tracks, I know how to mix. Envisions with Rebel Radio: It's more than just a normal college radio station. I envision 4 different categories; educational: interviews on what classes studentss enjoy, etc. Entertainment: classical rock, hard rock, rap/r&b, etc. for social: booths at tailgates or in front of MSU so we send the message that we're here for students. Rebel Radio should be around sports. Interviews with coaches, and players. We should then put all that online. SENATOR SANTIAGO: You seem to have good ideas. Why haven't you expressed interest previously? TYLER WISTISEN: didn't find out about Rebel Radio until recently. I'd like to change that, too. I know that Rebel Radio is online, but 1 think we can get it on the air, too. I think we should start out with am instead of fm because there's too much competition fm. SENATOR SUMNER: E-board: Why this guy? Did anyone else apply? PRESIDENT SCHUCK: SENATOR CONWAY applied, too. A big thing with Tyler was that he had so many amazing ideas. I could list down every idea he talked about. Like the idea of going to am instead of fm. Anyone of our directorships, not one person came up with as many innovative ideas as Tyler.
