Committee Reports:

Chairman Hancock: Debate is on the Saturday before elections chapel. I belive that's on the 24th. There will be a bill.

Chairman Robinson: Do we have a time for that yet?

Chairman Hancock: I believe it is on the afternoon-ish

Special Business:

New Business:

Announcements:

PPT Farmer: I'm not going to read the exec. cab newsletter, because I don't care about it.

Open Forum:

PPT Farmer: The school is thinking about changing course registration times to avoid course conflicts. The proposed times are 6am and midnight. 

Chairman Hancock: Every time I have had a class conflict with registration, the teachers have been pretty chill about it. If the teacher is known to not be accommodating, everyone just skips it anyway. 

Chairman Robinson: What about the 11:00 block? 

PPT Farmer: The problem is that class registration goes on from Monday to Thursday. 

PPT Farmer: I am for changing the times because I had a test on that day. 

Chairman Hancock: Just don't go to class.

PPT Farmer: It's a test.

Chairman Hancock: Just don't go to class!

PPT Farmer: We're talking about 20% of my grade.

Chairman Hancock: Just don't go to class.

Senator Burwell: The registration week is already put on the academic calendar, so can't we avoid conflicts by telling people to pause events?

Chairman Robinson: The people who are going to be done with registration are going to be done with it in 20 minutes, so as long as we just tell them it takes 20 minutes, it should be good.

PPT Farmer: First time I did it, I stared at a loading screen for 40 minutes.

Chairman Hancock: It's gotten better though.

Chairman Ko: We have less competition.

Chairman Hancock: True, but the freshmen should just suffer

Senator Fisher: What about 7:30 am?

PPT Farmer: There's aviation classes, but I think the pilots should suffer.

Chairman Ko: One thing I do want to mention is that students would appreciate better notice about how long Title IX training takes.

Motion to recess.
