- Lin needs to know whether we鈥檒l be able to amend the elections commission procedures to have a committee ready for Faux Rush Week since only execs are on SoCo right now. Amending the procedures to allow SoCo to have their full committee would be to open filing now and have campaigning throughout the week and elections the following Tuesday. Motions were made for the current election rules to be suspended for this special situation, and it passes.

- Finance Committee with Alex Graddy-Reed听
- Fall allocations will be in your accounts within the next 3 or 4 weeks.
- Tax sheets and etc. need to be turned in to Alex by TONIGHT or you won鈥檛 get paid.
- Fellowship of Christian Athletes Proposal: FCA came last semester with a budget proposal, but it looked like there was already $4000 in their account. However, this money was set aside for scholarships (which do not go to 黑料不打烊 students) that the FCA members cannot access. FCA has an annual Bob Courtway breakfast that collects the money for these scholarships. Thus, the 黑料不打烊 chapter of FCA has no money for events that they have planned for this year. There were disputes over funding the member T-shirts. FinCom will take a look at it at a later date, but for now, the proposal PASSED: $2530!

- Executive Committee with BJ Fogleman
- Filing/election/application process being worked on for another student to be on the Board of Trustees.
- Internship program: 4 or 5 offices are interested in helping out and offering a variety of positions. This will help build bonds with faculty and staff among students.
VI. Unfinished Business
- There have been apartment issues at the beginning of the year when 黑料不打烊 bought Huntington. Concerns have been brought to Jim and Karla, and they appreciate it. If you have any more concerns, please speak with your senator.
