Cabinet CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 fer him a new perspective on SG. ‘It’s strange going to Senate meetings now and not having my name called,” Bristow said. “At the same time, this position has unlimited potential.” Bristow said that as head legal counsel for SG, he is in favor of rewriting many of the executive, legislative and election codes to make them more efficient. He said he favors a simpler model for SG. Patel said Thursday that he supports Bristow’s goals for mak ing codes more efficient. He said Bristow is taking his role as at torney general seriously. Patel also applauded Kaleta Brown’s ambition to take on the role of Freshman Council advis er. Brown also ran against Patel in the presidential election. Patel said he supports all of Brown’s ideas for next year’s Freshman Council. Second-year political science student Haley Smith is SG’s new Public Relations Director. She said that being Patel’s media director during the campaign helped her to show him her ability to work well in university relations. “My big plan this year is to get Student Government out more into the general student popula tion,” Smith said. “We can’t get anything accomplished without student involvement.” Smith said she not only want ed to improve student involve ment on campus, but she also wanted to improve media rela tions among student organiza tions and SG. Patel said he appointed sever al of the Cabinet members based on their applications alone. He said some received appoint ments after an interview with him. He said he tried to choose people who were the most sup portive of his platform propos als for SG. * Comments on this story?E-mail gamecockudesk@hotmail.com Reservations CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Groups that reserve a room and fail to use it can be fined. Cancellation fees are $50 for the ballroom, theater and Golden Spur; $20 for meeting rooms; and $10 for outdoor space. Carr said fees are necessary be cause groups have “held onto a room that (they) were not going to use, and somebody else could’ve used that space, and we could’ve booked that space five times over.” She added that the Russell House staff has been extending a “grace period” to organizations that for get to cancel their reservations The cancellation fees were insti tuted when groups neglected to can cel table reservations for Greene Street, which caused the Russell House staff to spend the morning setting up tables that went unused. Fourth-year advertising stu dent Brook Bristow, who serves as Omicron Delta Kappa presi dent, said his organization re serves a room every two weeks for two hours, although they normally only take an hour. “We like to have time both ways in case we run long,” he said. “You never really know what is going to happen.” Despite this, Bristow says he supports the rule change because it would be more efficient. “I know for smaller organiza tions, if they want to get one of the better rooms, they kind of get locked out” he said. “I definitely fa vor changing the current policy.” Mortar Board President Hydrick Harden said his group meets twice monthly for an hour and a half, but it requires one three-hour session when select ing new members. Harden said the new policy would help make students aware of schedule prob lems and more considerate of other student organizations. Comments on this story?E-mail gamecockudesk@hotmail.com m . .
