ASISU UPDATE

ASISU Logo

  1. International Affairs Council, Jillian Christiansen- Thanked the Finance Committee for their support. They were under their budget of $12,000 because a candidate dropped out, they received more donations than expected, and less people show up to the event than previous years. In addition, the local high school students did not come because it was their finals week.

  2. President Sargent- A big thank you to everyone who came to ISU Day. She received many positive emails about the students who attended.

  3. Japan Club- The whole situation is a little shady. Finance Officer Schmidt and Secretary Rasmussen searched but could not find any records of their incentive points. However, Val Davids, Jessica Watson, and the Japan Club all claim to have paperwork for it. The total amount of incentive points that should have been awarded is $200.

  4. Schmidt- It was changed around midterms of last year. Senator Jewkes- She trusts the people who vouched for Japan Club, but she can’t make a decision because she doesn’t know what effect it would have on Finance Committee in the future. Finance Officer Schmidt- A vote will betaken, but he would really like to come up with a bill to prevent this situation from happening again. President Sargent- Let us table this so that everyone can think about it and vote next week. MOVE TO TABLE THE DECISION ON THE JAPAN CLUB UNTIL NEXT WEEK. Sargent/Jewkes. Unanimous. MOTION CARRIED.

  5. American Society of Civil Engineers- They previously requested contingency funds but President Sargent and Vice President Ruiz found out that they actually received it last year.
