I attended the most recent Board of Trustees meeting and listened in on the transition from President Wakefield to Jerry Weber. Gita Bangera was voted in to serve as acting president through July after President Wakefield’s leave at the end of the month until August 1st when Jerry Weber steps in as president. Feel free to check out the meeting minutes or ask me for details!

Michael Cha

There are still positions in ASG that we need to promote: the ASG Campus Life and Events Representative and the ASG Marketing and Public Relations Representative. If we could promote those, that would be great.

We have no funding requests today. Still sitting at about $50,000 in 1984 and waiting to get requests approved by CAB from Abby, but that won’t be substantial. Still about $2,500 between 1910 & 1903.
