Meeting Minutes:

Campus Community Minutes – January 31, 2005

Meeting Opens – 9:08pm

Voucher Distribution Contract

Adams: Patrick Cleary emailed me a proposal. It would be something everyone would have to sign before doing voucher distribution.

<>

Adams: This would be signed by the student ticket administrator and the individual.

Hinton: I challenge this committee to put this into the statues and make this into law. It needs to be a policy.

Langley: Can someone make this into a policy now?

Adams: Someone would have to write up a bill. But we can take some of what we want in it down now. The Zero-Tolerance policy and the fact that there is a form will be added.

Hinton: What would be the Zero-Tolerance policy?

Adams: (Violators) would be recommended to the subcommittee on ethics for removal from office/impeachment.

Sevits: Let’s take a few meetings and draft it. Make it good and make it last.

Subcommittee Discussion

Buffkin: I move to make a subcommittee on voucher distribution policy.

Nays have it.

Langley: There’s only eight of us, we can all deal with it.

Previous Meeting Nullification

Stephenson: Move to nullify the previous meeting due to no quorum.

Motion to nullify passed by consent.

Ticket Administrator

Adams: Have you had a chance to read over the letter from the ticket administrator and the Student Senate President? Is there any discussion?

Wilburn: I think we should continue to move forward, and we can’t make cuts. As far as we’ve talked about the culture of things, and I will not go into “he said, she said,” but I don’t want people to overshoot this. It’s really cut and dry. We’re moving to the end of our seasons, and we’re getting things wrapped up, and we’re having assistant ticket administrators in.

Adams: I would be willing to finish out the season if we were to remove Scott as ticket administrator.

Adams: I move to remove Scott as our current ticket administrator.

S. Thornton: Seconded.

Sevits: Scott would really benefit us by staying with us through the season and for the zero-tolerance policy, he is the most experienced to put it in place.

Adams: My main reason for offering the motion is because the students are concerned. It was not about how smoothly the ticket administration process would go, but punishing wrongdoing.

Moye: I respect what you are saying, but I agree by removing Scott would make anything better. I think he should issue some form of apology, but I don’t think that removing him would serve a purpose other than to put the blame on. It is not serving the students.

Stephenson: I will see in the future it will not happen again, it is my responsibility.

Hinton: This is not positive or negative, but I feel Scott has been progressive this year. Although he has not had overwatch well.

Adams: Since there is not any further debate, I withdraw my motion.
