Mover: Carolina Valdez

All Chi alpha chapters get together to attend the conference and besides it being a religious conference it is also a good opportunity for them to get an opportunity to gain leadership skills and connect with other students. There were questions about how the rest of the community will benefit from this event? Why didn’t they fundraise? They mentioned that they usually help volunteer during events, and games and running the popcorn machine. It was brought to their attention that it is important to make sure that it is accessible to all BC students.
2. Funding Request: El Centro Latino
Approved for $16,000
Mover: Carolina Valdez
Seconder: Hannah Lee
Vote Count: 4-0-0
Few members of the el Centro Latino presented on the funding request. The conference has prominent speakers and various people that are working in the industry. It is a wonderful experience for the students. It empowers students especially those of Hispanic background.
One student mentioned that it was inspiring meeting with other people from same background. The conference talked about documented and undocumented students. Attending this conference exposes people to leadership skills, networking opportunity and teamwork.
What are ways you do to recruit people for your club? Reach out to people, do one on ones and also welcome everyone. Want to make sure that everyone is included. The ASG suggested that they consider fundraising in future.

The ASG president wished good luck on finals to his fellow students.
