THE RICE THRESHER NEWS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2000
STUDENT ASSOCIATION
The Student Association Senate met in an unusually short 35-minute-
meeting Monday. The following were discussed:
■ There will be no SA meeting on Nov. 20 because of the Thanksgiving
holiday,
■ Senators will pick up their colleges' campus directories at Delivery
Services and bring them back to the colleges this week.
■ A forum on graduate student teaching will be held today in McMurtry
Auditorium in Duncan Hall from noon to 1 p.m. The forum is
sponsored by the Graduate Student Association and the Student
Association, and all are invited to attend.
■ Treasurer-elect Ben Home was introduced at the meeting. He will
take over the duties of resigning Treasurer Rani Yadav at the Nov. 27
meeting.
■ A resolution will be drafted this weekend supporting KTRU's claim
that students, not the administration, should decide on the program-
ming of the station. Anyone interested in contributing to the discus-
sion and writing of the resolution should meet in the Sid Richardson
College Commons Sunday at 12:30 p.m. The resolution will be
proposed at next Monday's meeting.
■ EMS Director Noah Reiter (Jones '00) came to the meeting to make
two announcements. First, he reminded students that in the case of
an emergency, the most efficient way to get help on-campus is to call
ext. 6000, not to find an EMT in your college. Also, he reminded
students that if they are involved in an emergency situation off
campus, they should call 911, not ext. 6000.
■ President Lindsay Botsford brought up concerns that off-campus
students were not represented in the SA. Since it was determined
that six of the 21 voting members of the SA live off campus, the SA
decided this is indeed not the case. Suggestions to improve
communication with off-campus students include establishing a
listserv or a bulletin board for off-campus students.
■ The International Opportunities Committee is looking for an inter-
ested student to serve on the committee. Contact Botsford
(lindsayk@rice.edu) for more information.
The next meeting is Monday in Farnsworth Pavilion in the Student Center
at 10 p.m.
Scripts and saurkraut
CHRISTINA TRAN/THS-V . -
Students at Sid Richardson College perform the annual "Melodrama," a comedic performance for which they
dress up, often cross-dressing, and read a script while the audience reacts by throwing saurkraut, at the Nov 3
Sid party Oktoberfest.
