A blurb

Saw this little flow of conscious that a student wrote earlier this morning.  Gonna repost it because it's kinda cute/great.
im pretty sure i always rode safe ride home from the door by myself. halloween is known as the greatest night of the year. people from college park and townies and everyone elise meets that she invites comes down. its a bunch of people running around a square in costumes but it fucking rules. there are drinks at every house that may be why. on may first the seniors ride bikes naked through campus and jump in to the river. and to fool the cops they do it twice. theres a student worked farm, a vegetarian food co-op, and if you think your bike is stolen someone probably just borrowed it because youll probably find it on the other side of campus the next week. frisbees are annoyingly flying everywhere, people through their shoes in a tree after they have sex, theres the dorch porch, the point, the docks, the greens, the door. books the shady porn store which ive only ever gone to and read the fake comics in front because i always forget my id. books that i never open for class and class held outside. on the water. I MISS YOU. theres so much more.

Hallowgreens

In case people didn't figure it out, Paul P was tryna make Hallowgreens Friday because his class has a field trip Saturday night.  Obv that didn't go over well with everyone else.  Pretty sure ResLife/School planned for it to be Saturday from the beginning, like they usually do.

Anyways, summary is that it's Saturday like always.  See yall then.

Towed Vehicles

Would kinda suck to get vehicle towed I think.  Gotta walk 4-30 miles to the 'car graveyard' and then pay money (not flex) to get it back.  Looks like a Beetle got towed today, kinda depressing.  Feel like Beetles are epitome of 'cute' cars, guess even they aren't safe from towing.

SGA Meeting 10/7/2010

1st official meeting of the semester.

Katie Caffey is writing this and not Ken...le sigh

It's 8pm. Let's get this meeting started. sgalol

Ken is wearing a cool hat from "Don's"

The new parliamentarian looks kind of like Louis.

8:03 - Ken just called this meeting to order, so early!!
Roll call
The new secretary is doing a really good job reading all the names.
There are no class presidents here.
MARK SNYDER ISN'T HERE. I was going to skype him in for student speak out but he’s not online.

8:05 - Kyle thinks the townhouse senators have their shit together because they are all here. He is right. (ps WC needs 2 or 3 more senators, so you should run!)


8:06 - Becky white just walked in. Alex Walls: "late as usual!"


8:06 - I just motioned to amend the agenda to include the guest speaker, Lisa and Luke, because Ken told me to before the meeting, and I thought it was a good idea.


8:07 - Minutes just passed
No students are here to speak out.


8:07 - Luke and Lisa are guest speaking about sustainable energy and GSMRLF.
The PP is a corrupt file, and Ken can't open it:( Luke is going to wing it without notes


8:11 – Ken just opened the PowerPoint! He’s my hero! Luke dissed Macs, but then he took it back I think.
Interesting facts about energy consumption,


8:13 - Gordy (WC Senator) just walked in


8:17 – Ken is going to try to get the graphs to show up on the PowerPoint


8:19 – Lisa is describing the Green St. Mary’s Revolving Loan Fund (GSMRLF), which works on renewable energy projects around campus. It was established last year, so this is its first year. It’s really exciting
8:22 - Ken just fixed the PowerPoint again. Now we can see all the images/graphs. He's such a good VP!
8:24 – potential GSMRLF projects: solar trash compactors, motion-sensing lighting, solar street lights, etc. really cool ideas


8:28 – Good job Lisa and Luke! applaud


8:28 – officer reports


8:30 – ken is talking. It’s too bad he can’t blog and talk at the same time. I’m going to miss his blogging skills. Now he’s talking about committees. All committees need non- SGA members so please consider joining one or more of these committees:
(ps there’s no parking committee anymore, RIP. apparently there’s no technology committee either)
Apps will be out soon for these committees.
644 students showed up at the Nest. Whoa! Biggest Nest event yet.


8:34 - Student open-mike at 8pm for coffee house this week


8:35 – Ken and Danny just had a nice polite exchange. such gentlemen. Now danny is talking about meadows’ and ticks.
Danny: “If you guys didn’t know, there are ticks in meadows”
Kyle: “What’s a tick?”

June 2012: Ann Arundel demolition to begin
Student trustee website www.smcm.edu/studenttrustee. There’s a blog too but Danny was talking too fast


8:38 – reports reports reports, exciting!


8:40 – ken just messed up saying the parliamentarian’s name


8:40 – ken was told to do a re-do. He spoke really slow but I think he got it right


8:42 – senator reports now


8:42 – Alex said he doesn’t have a report, but he’s still talking. Love you, Alex Walls.


8:43 – Ken is standing in front of the projector shielding his eyes from the light. He should have brought sunglasses


8:45 – Ken is talking


8:46 – Meeting adjourned. See ya’ll next week. Hope this didn’t suck too much. I miss kenlol.
This is Katie, btw.

New Director of Public Safety

There is a new Director of Public Safety yalls.  New dude seems into talking to the students (via the open hour Fridays from 12:30-1:30) as opposed to just yelling at us (via Brooks).  Is Brooks still around?  I think he sent out an email the other day, so maybe he is.


Dude's name is Chris Santiago.  Santiago is a real cool name, liking this dude already.  Feel like I should also give him a catchy name, like Jurgo (legit heard someone call him this, but it might have been because I had said it like a hot minute before).  Maybe Santy?  Gives impression that he is jolly and also hands out gifts (in the form of alcohol citations).  Kinda could be construed as a derogatory/disrespectful name though.  OH WELL!

Anyway, hope he is cool and all that jazz.

Resizing

halp someone resize that image up there

EDIT:  fixed kinda, thanks Margo!

HURRICANE EARL PANIC

HAVE YALL HEARD ABOUT THIS HURRICANE?  HURRICANE PARTY TIME!

Pretty sure Earl is gonna destroy the campus.  PANIC!  Some antifearmongers have been saying that this hurricane will miss us, but I have been discussing this with a lot of the meteorology majors and they seem to believe that we are all going to get Hurricaned.

Last time there was a Hurricane I put on that Scorpions song 'Rock You Like a Hurricane' on repeat and then left my room.  It still still my top played on last.fm because of that.
