  2. It would be cool if you posted what goes on at SGA meetings again... my senators rarely send out emails and I don't know what's happening evar.

  4. @Laura it funds two employees for over the summer along with tools/seeds (I'm pretty sure?), primarily employees though.

    @anons I chair the meetings now and have to pay attention the whole time and call on people to speak, but I'll try to write post-SGA reports for now on. Where do you guys live, I'll contact your senators to send out reports.

  5. @Laura The SGA generously gave allocated us $5300 of the $8300 that we have budgeted to run the farm for the next year (up until July 2012). The other $3000 is coming from the Environmental Studies Department and the Sustainability Office. $6500 of that total will be going to pay for the wages of two student workers over the summer (info will be sent out soon). The other will be going towards soil (which we use to fertilize), seeds and tools (any of our hand tools as well as fencing and irrigation materials).

    If anyone else is interested daily work days at 4pm are starting next week.

  6. I live in WC and have gotten maybe one email from my senators this semester. I know that we were one short earlier on, but it's still a bit... depressing. The only reason I know things are going on is that I go to the meetings semi-regularly.

  7. I'm in LQ, actually. Andrew and Co. send out emails now and then, but meetings are weekly, yes? The updates we get are closer to monthly.

  8. Anon 1038, Check your Email! I'm very sorry about the lack of communication, no excuse on my part...I think we all just get kind of confused about who is sending it out on a weekly basis.
