Old Business:

YAC presents their FA2024 budget.

Senator Hammers: I noticed that you were renting tables? I think it would help your profit and loss if you just bought them.

Bronwyn: We do have access to tables. It is just that we need extra tables for just one event, which is Stomp.

Senator Hammers: Where are the tacos stored? Is there room?

Bronwyn: Dog house, and we actually share the tables, so I will have to talk to facilities about details.

LOUD Bill (v2) brought up

LOUD Bill (v2) passes


VP Hancock: For context, we had a bill last semester trying to increase engagement a bit with senate. We were originally going to do cardboard cutouts, but it became the first bill vetoed by the president in anyone's memory because he thought it could get stolen. This is a simpler version of that bill. If anything happens to the box or signs, I will hunt people down.



New Business:

YellowJacket Racing Sponsorship bill brought up 

Senator Toce: I'm the graphic designer for the team, so if anyone is interested in the branding, I can show them later.

PPT Farmer: Motion to amend the bill to 1800

Chairman Smith: Why?

PPT Farmer: I've seen your budget, and I think you can do live with $1800.
