Advisor Announcement
- Maritza:
- Club communication and club submission has had a lot of communication issues. We are working with college life to make major changes with how we are processing certain things.
- There’s at least one event that’s been requested using falsified advisor signatures. Moving forward, forms may still require a signature, but with additional follow up with your advisors. It’s unfortuante but we have lost trust from this incident.
- Clubs should be working with college life for promotion, not with the office of communication directly. Communications office will check with College Life first since they don’t have a way of confirming that a room is already reserved.
- We have our frontrunner for our ICC student assistance position, it will be announced soon once it’s decided.
- Amy
- Come to DASG's first-ever "Lights Out" event from 6-8 PM in Conference Room A&B on Friday 2/20.
