II. Report from the MSU Officers

A. President—Nadeem El-Kouri1. OrgSync – VOTED AGAINST USING IT

Currently used nationwide and at Loyola undergrad – only as successful if everyone uses it. It also has push capability through mobile devices etc,Feel free to suggest other solutions!

2. Funding for service organizationsService groups don’t receive MSU funding because MSU funds are strictly allocated for student events – considering the idea of allowing service groups to receive $100 for any intro meetings/food etc costs they need covered (continue to maintain policy of service groups not allocating any MSU funds towards a donation/service) Concern and decision will be addressed at next meeting

3. Student group hand off should happen by April 1st

Highly suggest each organization to create a gmail account and use that as the main hub for all organization documents, list serv, google drive etc to make hand off easier

4. All student groups must register (See Student Leadership Handbook)We would like ALL groups to register – even ones not technically receiving MSU funding so that the MSU webpage can reflect most up to date
