- Give me your nicknames and dues or else I will give you a shitty name or kick you out, respectively
- Read the constitutional amendments document because we will be discussing it at next floor meeting to pass amendments and changes
- Housing meeting March 24
- Cosponsoring with ICLC Fri Feb 22 7-11 pm Dance Through the Ages
- Game night and Meet CIF Sat Feb 23 7:30-late pm
- Polls to floor:
- Revise housing points so transfers aren’t always fucked
- Contribution points: subset of participation points for events that help floor; members will be required to do more help-type things like flyer, hold positions, etc as well as participate in events with attendance
- Participation point quota will be the same, the total number remains
- If this passes, it goes into effect next school year (Fall 2019)
- Currently being tracked but no quota set just to see how it works
- Concerns: this could overcomplicate the system; keep bureaucracy at a minimum
- Suggestion: could increase quota and make something like tabling worth more points because it’s more effort and less popular
- Suggestion: make tabling mandatory because people should be contributing if they are part of this community and want it to succeed
- 13 votes for yes, 6 for no, 3 for need more info
- Should requirement for membership involve attending at least one board meeting a year (or semester?)
- Concerns: just attending when there aren’t any concerns isn’t really productive
- The purpose of this is to help people decide who is a good candidate for eboard elections when it comes to voting time
- Concerns: this is adding more rules (counterpoint: in the past, someone has been reelected when they were doing basically nothing for floor and people were unaware of that when voting)
- Concerns: this is similar to mandating that voters be informed, and that level of control is not necessarily going to help
- Concerns: maybe focus on new members going to a board meeting their first semester or so to know what exactly is going on
- Some mechanism to participate more: 16
- Some negative reinforcement if not participating: 4
- Affects if you can vote: 5
- Affects if you can run for board: 16
