SGA Meeting 4/27/2010

Last SGA Meeting of the year

Gonna miss u Justin, Lisa, Matt, Sola, Alexandra, Louis, Debbie, Rodkey (but not really [j/k]) others etc.

Debbie Travers made us cream puff things and brownies. They are delicious. She has finally done something worthwhile (just kidding obv, Debbie has done a lot of cool stuff and will probably continue to do cool stuff as a real adult, and I'm sure her recital last Sunday went swimmingly)

8:08 - Meeting starting, this is early!

8:10 - WE JUST APPROVED THE MINUTES HELL YES!

8:11 - Chairman of the Board of Directors Muldoon is here. We are in the building that is named after him. How awesome.

8:12 - He has a cute face. He is bragging about stuff that we do, feeling used/important. He just described something as 'neat', feel like this is a good adjective.

8:14 - Kinda have to pee.

8:15 - Muldoon has a 'neat' voice, wish he was my grandfather.

8:16 - Kinda reminds me of Willie Nelson but less stoned.

8:19 - Ah this guy is great! He wants to make sure that our new on campus farm is preventing runoff (since apparently 65% of Chesapeake Bay pollution is runoff of fertilizer and other stuffs), and this is such a great idea! ahh <3 .="." div="div">

8:22 - Justin Perry has a Presidential Proclamation (his first), thanking Muldoon for chillin with the SGA for a bit.

8:23 - New Club, the SCUBA Club. SCUBA is an acronym I think, not sure really. Mike Studivan is here, I am his friend but I don't really hang out with him anymore.

8:28 - blah blah blah. I asked a question about snorkeling (<3>

8:33 - SCUBA club passed!

8:37 - Resubmitting the No All Capital Letter All Student Emails. People seem less grumpy and more likely to respond to this positively.

8:40 - Who the fuck just voted nay on this shit. Regardless is passed, fuck yes!

8:41 - Something boring but important that Justin Perry brought up just passed.

8:42 - Gonna go pee brb.

8:43 - Circle K asking for money for cool stuff to help kids who are gonna die. 800$ for hotel rooms over the summer in Florida. Circle K does a lot of really awesome stuff, like hundreds of hours of volunteering every semester. I can't say no to dying kids. Either way it passed!

8:48 - Bill about funding stuff for the farm. Justin Perry is presenting it, about 4,000$ from the St. Mary's Green Revolving Loan Fund to pay for student farmers, none of which are alumni or non-students (which was earlier an issue, so there has been a compromise).

8:50 - Alex Walls (<3>

8:53 - It passed! Go Campus Farm. They need to give it a catchy name, like Tom Seahawk Farm (I get egotistical when drinking).

8:54 - "Fuck the Parking Committee" - Justin Perry (quote may not be accurate). But yeah, voting to get rid of the Parking Committee. UNANIMOUS VOTE WOOO!.

8:56 - Officer Reports, exciting!

8:58 - No SafeRide this week, :[.

9:02 - Chris Rodkey just said "shrubbery". Middle School me is laughing about Monty Python right now.

9:03 - Oh my god Middle School was like a decade ago.

9:04 - "It's been real" - Anna Winship.

9:08 - Robb is saying something silly that will never happen. Or maybe it will which would be cool. A Deli at the Waterfront. "It should also have a bar" - at least half the SGA.

9:13 - Becky White has a 10$ dollar bill in her mouth, is she a stripper?

9:14 - Katie Caffey is awesome for holding my computer while I get sworn in!!!!

9:16 - Ken just got sworn in - booo-ya! He is holding the gavel! Whooooaaaa (-Katie C)

9:17 - Done!

  5. dear ken benjes, i don't know if i can live without your sga blog posts next year. if i had realised the consequences of my actions i may not have voted for you. how will i get my information about what sga does? certainly not in a witty, sarcastic shorthand that only ken benjes can produce. at least i will be in the real world and won't have the same burning need to know what is going on with capital letters in all student emails.
