Agenda of the 85th Senate Hofstra University Student Government Association April 15, 2021 Hofstra University Zoom University Call to order Meeting Called to order at 6:30 PM A. Quorum Call a. Quorum Set at B. New Business a. Leaders for Leaders Presentations i. Associate Senator Rachel Navarro 1. What is the FAQ Initiative and how to help with the transition that freshmen have going into college? Rachel has worked with Senator Congdon and the Academic Affairs committee. She also joined the DAV(e) subcommittee as well as had meetings with SAC. This is going to impact freshmen by making them stay happy and confident while coming to Hofstra University, and know more about the resources at Hofstra. We are working on a draft with SAC and hoping that it will be ready for the Class of 2025. What L4L has taught her was to make sure she put herself out there and help get out of her comfort zone. ii. Associate Senator Lila Campbell 1. Working with the equity and inclusion committee. Assisted with the planning with the town hall and helping with the Day of Understanding however it will get pushed to next semester. Working with How To Hofstra and was very excited to work on this which is a guide to future Hofstra Freshman. This will be shown during Welcome Week in the future years to come as well. Working with the DREAM club on campus and hopefully heading a “lingo bingo” session for How to Hofstra. iii. Associate Senator Mac Sykes 1. Was tasked to work on the Hofstra TikTok Initiative to expand on what was previously posted from last year. Every few weeks we are tasked to post videos for popular trends that are trending currently and have the SGA hop on that bandwagon this shows and has an impact on the Hofstra Community. We hope that the SGA TikTok continues to grow in the next upcoming years and we hope to grow closer as friends iv. Associate Senator Nicole Kerr
1. How working with programming has changed this year with COVID so working with social Distancing, limited capacity, and incentivization towards the students of our age want that free shirt or food. They want something for their time while coming to our events. Stuff that has helped was having sign ups for the students and being able to use larger rooms. Skills that have been learned during this program would be Problem Solving, Interactions virtually, and creative thinking v. Associate Senator Nicole Zacchia 1. Currently working with the club Resources committee. It was great being able to interact with students in and out of SGA. There were some goals that we have decided to do. The 3 main ones were Club outreach, Reallocate Office Spaces, and Review the constitution. The reasons we did these things create solutions and have a better understanding on how to work with clubs to get a better understanding. Also to reiterate to other clubs to make sure they do not need any help and if they do to be a voice for the students to help. b. S.A.2020.85.004 i. With this action I do not want to diminish any roles to the students and how there is some favoritism. We want to make sure you do not need to be on the programming committee. 1. Chair Paturzo have you thought of this for when in person programming is allowed and if you have thought of this position. a. All the work should be done by the committee and not the chair 2. Chair Germaine moves for a 10 minute moderated caucus a. Motion Second b. By a vote of 20-4-0 c. Motion Passed i. Senator Kaludis going further I feel that it could be better by not having it ii. Chair Aquino asks a question to Chair Paturzo about this role 1. This role holds this person accountable for the committee and a point person as well iii. Senator Schanck 1. I haven't done a lot of this role this semester and I do not want it to be favoritism towards becoming the programming chair iv. Senator Congdon 1. There also aren’t that many people that sit on programming for the full year and it also shows favoritism on the committee v. Senator Hotaling 1. It is very hard to get people in SGA or for people in particular
vi.

I disagree with this and how this isn’t favoritism because it does set a precedent of favoritism, and it sets other committee members at a disadvantage if they wanted to run for chair vii. Senator DeBiso 1. We almost had a Deputy on Club Resources but we decided that it wasn’t a good idea viii. Chair Paturzo 1. It is the same as just being a senator as we have an ethics and conduct and archivist, and social chair it is very important to hone in on the people that want to participate. ix. Chair O’Brien 1. As not having a deputy I could see how it could be beneficial x. Senator Walker 1. This is going to beneficial xi. Chair Connolly-Sisk moves for a straw poll to see if this would pass d.

I want to talk about my project that also relates to my introduction to and process to work with Uber Eats so you can have more dining options with campus. With COVID-19 there are less options available on campus as well as giving students more options. For example we want the ability to make it better and so you can order food from Uber Eats by using the meal plan from Hofstra. There will be an optional tip as well as other Uber fees. We wanted to use this because uber has a higher usage compared to other apps. It may increase more people and/or commuters to get a meal plan. We are considering this and we are working to get this done. Currently this project is in the works we are trying to work out the financials part of this process. I would like to pursue a higher role in SGA as well but started being the treasurer of the Commuter Association. iv. Associate Senator Jessaia McGriff 1.
