ASF Minutes

The Associated Student Federation (ASF) Forum convened in the West Dining Room Wednesday, looking back at Homecoming Week, looking at a revised budget and selecting a new member of the Forum.

Old Business

ASF briefly discussed the possibility of allocating money for a new gym floor and a revised budget was passed out, which reflected a larger contingency budget, which now amounts to more than $32,000. A vote on the gym floor allocation will most likely take place at next week’s meeting.

Special Elections

An election to fill the position of former Forum member Jeremy Houska took place, as freshmen Alena Vlna, Melody Sateri and Christine Mikusky interviewed for the position. Vlna, who had previously interviewed in ASF’s first special election of the year, was elected by the Forum.

Upcoming Plans

Forum members discussed upcoming plans, which include the Holiday Dinner, the Free Day of Fun and the possible Lip Sync Contest. In a past meeting, it was decided that the Lip Sync contest would have to have at least 10 acts in order to take place. As of the meeting, no contestants had signed up. The final day to sign up is today.
