Vote could give proxies a voice

Story by Emma Wilson

After last week’s debate regarding the creation of ex-officio positions for a Public Relations Liaison and a Graphic Design Officer, the motion was passed.

Sen. Stephen Slade was the only senator to vote no on the motion. He expressed concerns that the position of Graphic Design Officer was not needed and said that a committee under the Public Relations Liaison would be better suited to Student Senate’s needs.

“I see this as a way of moving in the right direction, maybe its not perfect yet but maybe the 27th session could develop this further under President David Karaz’s direction,” Treasurer Michael Reibel said. Student Senate will be accepting applications for ex-officio positions soon.

Sen. Breanna Thompson and the Student Affairs Committee recommended an addition in the Drake Student Handbook. The addition would make it possible for organizations to appeal if they are denied approval to become an official organization. The committee has tested the process this year and believes this will be the best way to proceed. The motion will be voted on next week.

Student Senate proposed an amendment to Senate’s Rules of Procedure Bylaws. The amendment would change the role of proxies in Senate. This change would give proxies more validity and would allow them to vote at the Senate table without the Senator turning in previous notice of their votes to the Vice President of Student Life. The amendment will be voted on next week.

Student Senate proposed an additional amendment to the bylaws that would clarify that ex-officio members are no longer permitted to vote at the Senate table. This has been an unwritten rule in Student Senate until now. The amendment will be voted on next week.

In Officer Reports, Karaz and Senator Joey Gale reminded senators of the upcoming transitions in Student Senate, inauguration for the senators in the 27th session will be on May 9.

Senator Josh Schoenblatt confirmed that there will be dogs on campus during finals week for the “Dog Days of Finals.” He thinks that this could become a biannual event.
