Past achievements were discussed
and new ideas for student services
improvements were entertained
Wednesday during the first Student
Senate meeting of 1998.
Student Body Vice President Chris
Dorsel applauded senators for their accomplishments
throughout last semester,
and he encouraged them to continue
their efforts.
"You guys did a great job last semester.
Because of you, our Clothes
Drive was a success.
"Student Senate was also largely
responsible for getting the new Taco
Bell on campus," Dorsel said.
"We need to carry the same enthusiasm
we had from last year into this
one. Fm open to any suggestions."
Several senators voiced their ideas
and intentions for this semester. Academic
Committee Chairman Kim
Hartwell reported findings based upon
advisement surveys that she and her
committee issued earlier last semester.
"About 607 of our surveys were returned.
Surprisingly, 76 percent of students
rated their advisement sessions
as good to excellent.
"However, 86 percent said that they
would support campus-wide advisement
training for all advisors," Hartwell said.
Rules Committee Chairman
Jonathan Sharpe suggested lobbying
for longer breaks between classes.
"I know many students, particularly
first and second year journalism majors,
who are having a hard time getting
to class on time because those classes
are spread so far apart over campus.
"It would be nice if we could secure
at least a 20-minute recess between
all classes," Sharpe said.
"Of course, this would take some
time and a massive overhaul of university
scheduling."
Student Services Committee Chairman
Leigh-Anne Travers mentioned
i-i r : x
me possiumiy ui securing a pusi unite
in the Carolina Mall.
"I want to see if there is any way
that we can have a true postal representative
in the bottom of the Russell
House. Maybe then we can actually
send large boxes or containers in the
mail," Travers said.
Dorsel urged senators to remain active
and to continue brainstorming ideas
for campus improvement.
Absences on Wednesday included
Senators Eric Cooper, Kayin Darby,
Bryan May, W. Peter Wallace, Allen
Brown, Arnold R. Dormer, HI, Shanika
Washington, Lateca Wise, Scott Lucas,
Courtney Stangry, Denisha Hendricks,
and Rob Sprankle.
