Caitlin Hoffman | Student Senate President

Each week, Student Senate President Caitlin Hoffman will summarize what happens during Student Senate meetings. This is a condensed version of the meeting minutes.

Hope everyone enjoyed their spring break and got some rest to power through the rest of the semester! Here’s a follow-up from our meeting on Thursday, March 20th. As always, let any senators know if you have questions.

The Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) is continuing their work on obtaining gender-neutral bathrooms campus-wide. Secondly, they are still continuing their work on reconfiguring the Beaver’s Creed. These processes take time, but PAC is working hard to get them done and submitted!

Our proposals are still going well. The Student Activities Board (SAB) submitted a proposal to Student Senate and senators approved their work and will continue to work with them on configuring a design to submit. Stay tuned for more information on where this proposal might take us.

We’ll continue to work closely with the other areas to fine-tune and address them from all perspectives. One of which we need your help on… another survey to complete! Please take our survey here to help us better understand your perspective on the servery. Have you thought of anything you might want to see change on campus? Let us know!

This week’s meeting meant a great deal to senators as we took nominations for next year’s executive board! Look for voting to begin this week. Your nominations are as follows:

President:
Megan Long (junior)
Meghan Harmening (sophomore)

Vice President:
Jonathan Ehrlich (senior)
Joshua Fortmann (sophomore)
Catie Bach (junior)
Ian Grigsby (junior)
Alexis Williams (sophomore)

Treasurer:
Aaron Burns (junior)
Morgan Langan (freshman)
Allie Mason (sophomore)
Austin Groth (sophomore)

Secretary:
Lynsey Seuntjens (junior)

Send us a Facebook message, give us a shout-out on Twitter, talk to one of your senators and let us know what you think about anything we are working on or talking about. Or if you’d like to see us talking about something, we’d be happy to accommodate you!

As always, we encourage you to visit our Thursday meetings in Forum 1 at 6:00pm. We also invite you to like our Facebook page and to follow our Twitter, @BVUSenate to get more updates. You can access our meeting minutes and agendas on our webpage.
