Summer Senate Round 2

The Summer Senate gathered earlier this evening for the second meeting of the summer.  The meeting accomplished very little with all three main discussions being put on the table until further notice.

The first discussion of the meeting was continuing a discussion of branding the ASUO. This “branding” would consist of putting the words “brought to you by the ASUO incidental fee” on everything that is funded by the ASUO. This  branding already happens in places like the EMU computer lab.  

The second discussion was about Sharepoint. Sharepoint is a BlackBoard like program that would function inside the ASUO. Sen. Stark Mcmillan who was is in favor of the program said during the meeting “I don’t know what we will use this for.” 

The last discussion was about where the weekly ego trip called the ASUO senate meetings will be held during the 2009-2010 school year. The two main options are the walnut room and the Ben Linder room. Sen. Demic  Tiptino joked that he would resign if meetings were held in the Ben Linder room. Sen Nick Schulz was too worried about making the ASUO more comfortable for spectators and students trying to watch in on the senate meetings. This discussion lasted fifteen minutes or half of the meeting and no decision was made. 

At least it was a short one again.
