President’s Report

Database update: SnS, Sailing, Mountaineering and Outing (current memberships) are all entered in the database. Please push everyone in the office to enter information in.

Constitutional Roadmap: Two rounds of bylaws that I want to work on doing. One, consisting of three actual bylaws, we will be worked on tonight. Lastly, all of our clubs are supposed to be student orgs, but we will work on taking that out of the constitution in December.

I will be travelling a lot this week. First to Chicago to pick out furniture and then I will travel to Minneapolis to check out their union, and then I will go to Milwaukee on Thursday to meet with architects.
