Keep SNA alive

Because there seems to be some confusion as to what is happening with SNA, I wanted to address the priority issues for retaining our club charter.

1st - General membership meeting on Feb 4 @ 1pm in Locke 229 is scheduled. EVERYONE interested in SNA should attend. The priority agenda item for this meeting is getting new officers elected and in place. Until new officers are elected nothing can be accomplished.

2nd - Once we have new officers, a new club application must be filled out and new signature cards submitted to Student Activities.

3rd - For the SNA to retain it's charter we must commit to one Club Rush Day time slot. Club Rush is NEXT WEEK. That means one or several people must be set up at a table in the Quad between 9am and 11am to talk to students and promote the club. All items necessary for this event are on hand in the locked cabinets, but we can not schedule our Club Rush time until the signed club apps and signature cards are completed.

4th - ICC mtgs are scheduled for the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month at 1:30pm. The first mtg was not held as scheduled, so that leaves the meeting next Thursday that an SNA member MUST attend.

I am willing to help fill in these gaps as this is short notice, but we must get new officers elected, in place and up to speed re: our obligations and requirements to the ICC/Student Activities Office.

Please contact myself - Danielle Mathias-Lamb, out-going SNA President, Lisa Newbold - past Treasurer, incoming Vice President or Ana Hernandez, faculty advisor for questions or concerns. Feel free to email me or to comment/discuss SNA issues on the SNA blog. http://sjdcsna.blogspot.com/ There is a link to this blog on all semester blogsites. Please feel free to use it for SNA related discussions.

It is critical that SNA have an interested and involved membership, but until we seat officers, nothing may move forward.

Many thanks
