Semester Reports!How to do them and when to do them .

What’s a semester report?

• Differs for Executive Cabinet members (Roundtable)/ HAB Chairs and Club Representatives!!

Who has to give a semester report?• Roundtable members

• HAB Chairs

• Class Presidents

• Club Representatives

• One student representative from the following committees:

- Student Life Committee- Human Relations Committee- Diversity Initiative Board- Environmental Advisory Board- Food Service Committee- Constitutional Review Committee

Whoa wait….What's a semester report look like?

Good question! Here’s an example:

Hold up… What if I represent a club?Another great question! Try somethin’ like this.

•Ask Daniella for help! She’s there for a reason!!!

•Turn into the Senate Secretary.

Print this out!

Ok…sweet, so when do we get it over with?• November 6th: Roundtable Semester Reports

• November 16th: HAB Chairs Semester Reports and Student Committee Semester Reports

• November 23rd: First Round of Clubs Semester Reports

• November 30th: Second Round of Clubs Semester Reports (LAST DAY TO PRESENT SEMESTER REPORTS!)

YOU CAN NOT GIVE A SEMESTER REPORT ON THE LAST DAY OF SENATE (Dec.

7th)

Other things you can’t do on the last senate…

• Present or approve a constitution (this applies to the Constitutional Review Committee as well)!

• Which means, the LAST DATE TO PRESENT A

CONSTITUTION IN SENATE IS NOVEMBER 23RD!

• This is because your constitution has to be on the SGA website for a week, therefore, your constitution will be approved on November 30th in senate .

Ok…breathe…..

• Don’t be afraid to present!

• Remember to print out or handwrite your semester report to turn into the Senate Secretary

• Lost? Ask! Daniella and I are always open to help with semester reports! Or view this slide show on the SGA WEBSITE.
