IV. Unit Director ReportsA. The Pantry – 6:29

a. Tera – Winter Quarter Unit Director Report. Scholarship program, 4 SaveMart gift cards to students in need. Gave out 7 this year to very different students from different backgrounds. I’ll read a thank you from one of our recipients now. Now I’m going to go into the food summit we went to this quarter. To start, we met with Pantry directors across the UC system. Getting some funding from a grant. They’re going to implement a food resource model across UC campuses. Also were asked to be one of the presenters at food summit, helped advise several campuses that are implementing Pantries. We are the oldest UC Pantry model. We’re the only Pantry that’s open every academic day. We have a recipe of the month now, and changing up our menu. Happy hour program for fruits and vegetables. Fresh produce

program. Giving our students resources on cooking classes in the ARC. Spring Quarter cooking event using only food provided by Pantry. Did an annual survey this quarter.

B. KDVSa. Ashley – General manager of KDVS. Every spring we have a pledge drive, we’ve been

planning this year’s since January. Plan on having more events than last year. Week of fundraiser, we beg for money. That’s how we get most of our money for our pledge drive. We did lose a close community member, he died last month, so we’ll be dedicating a few hours during our pledge drive to his memory. We’re working with Creative Media to getting our fundraiser website online. We’re working on getting it to accept donations all year. Looking at other means to send items out because post office can’t send mail. Program Advisory Board established and active. Each of the 5 members will be conducting an informal audit based on 5 Pillars of Community Radio. They also intend on rewriting bylaws, should be done by end of summer. Staff update: my assistant news director stepped down last year, hired a new one today. Also recently had talk about fiscal state. Record label director is voluntarily stepping down. We aren’t going to do record labels anymore because they are a money sink. Currently working to review state of KDVS budget and updating it for next year. Spring Music Festival in May, planning going on now.

i. Figueroa – Is there anything we can do, any support?1. Ashley – Appreciate, but no.

ii. Rivilis – How much money will dissolving record label free up? Any transitional issues due to Freeborn closing?

1. Ashley – With the record label, can’t really speak to that right now because we’re going through budget. But probably around $4,000. With Freeborn, I’m not getting any updates.

2. Janice – We were just in a meeting, still 5 years away from any kind of work being done.

iii. Huey – Ending the record label sounds like a tough decision. I appreciate your unit’s thoughtfulness. PAC meetings, I could get you in contact for you to get updates.

iv. Ashe – Program to talk about events?1. Ashley – Yes, we do require our DJs play events messages. We

produce in house messages 30 seconds or less to promote events in the area. Sponsorship messages and event messages are different.

v. Ayala – Your outreach, # of students who listen to KDVS, what ASUCD can do to promote?

1. Ashley – We definitely do have a visibility problem. I don’t think we’ve done everything we can do, so we need to adjust internally. Can’t really speak to our numbers. Impossible to pay for the data to find out how many people listen to us on the radio.

2. Ayala – If there’s ever something you want to put in the Daily Aggie Reader, you can contact us.

3. Ashley – Thank you, and we’re working with myucdavis too.

vi. Fatayerji – Did you want to ask about the bill before you leave?1. Ashley – #31, I was just unsure if that applies to those of us who fall

under Campus Media Board. 2. Kappes – According to the bill, it does.

V. Committee Reports – 10:47A. Helland – SAAAC starting today. Photo campaign about what success means to you. Vinyl

Fair in April by KDVS. B. Huey – At the MU Renewal Pac meeting, Griffin Lounge and lower area, bathrooms in that

area, elevator, are shutting down. East Wing is turning into bookstore temporarily. More vehicular traffic in West Quad area. Champagne, narrowed down award winners.

C. Rivilis – SFAAC is cancelled for tomorrow. Haven’t been able to meet with URSAC or INCD. Sanchez – Undergraduate Counsel meeting, PE classes. Crackdown on cheating. Bio sci

classes online for Spring. Major emphases shown on transcript.VI. Presentations

A. Elections Committeea. John – Talking about proposed ballot. Explaining handout. b. Public Discussion

i. Huey – Option for write-in ballots?ii. John – Must be submitted in writing to me, so there’s no option online.

iii. Rivilis – If someone asks why they should vote in an uncontested election, what should I say?

iv. John – I don’t have an answer for you. v. Nguyen – Can you make the option for write-in candidates more accessible?

vi. John – Sounds good, I’ll do that. vii. Fatayerji – Can we just have the option for a write-in during actual elections

week?viii. John – Yeah sure, change the bylaws. You cannot change an election bylaw

to change an election immediately. How this works, the ballot cannot be changed when election week starts.

ix. Kapur – Does no one care that we have bylaws? Does it not matter? There’s no option for a write-in candidate unless you suspend the bylaws. And if you suspend bylaws, you will get sued.

x. Bentham – There is no way you should open it up and suspend that bylaw because those candidates who are potentially going to win will get their position ripped away from them by court. The court won’t let that staff.

xi. Kapur – If we would’ve had Senate last week, we could’ve discussed it before the deadline, but we didn’t. Oops.

xii. Senchev – Is marketing elections not a thing?xiii. John – Elections committee does not have a job to market elections. We do

it because that’s how precedent works. We also don’t advertise that there are open spaces on Senate because it’s inherently biased.

xiv. Kapur – Can we ask admin to tell Armando to have write-in candidates?

xv. Sabbagh – Can we move this discussion to how we should work on this outside of the upcoming event? Get over it, find how to fix this problem for next time.

xvi. John – Elections committee is currently working on changing our bylaws so that we can make changes to never have this happen. We are currently writing stuff to make elections reforms.

xvii. Lee – Does anyone want to talk about what we want to do for the future?xviii. Fatayerji – This is not a full election. People are going to say to us that we

aren’t a representation of the population. Less than 5% is even going to come out and vote. Is there absolutely nothing we can do? Well, that’s the shitty situation we’re in. We won’t get validation for anything we do until the next election.

xix. John – Second thing is, the Q&A forum next Tuesday. Livestream online Q&A forum for senatorial candidates and executive candidates. Also a submission box for questions. Open event.

xx. Chung – Why isn’t it at the CoHo?xxi. John – Elections Committee wanted to do something new and different to

reflect our situation. Have been receiving a lot of complaints about CoHo debate, they don’t like us being there. Instead, I’d really like candidates to show themselves and answer questions by having a livestream.

xxii. Chung – What exactly does marketing branch do?xxiii. John – We do market. What I’m saying is that there’s nothing in the bylaws

saying that I need to market elections. I want to market them, so I have a position for it. I don’t market petitions.

xxiv. Ayala – Having had your position, do you have specific insight for us to make elections relevant and help us reach out?

xxv. John – Off the top of my head, there’s a lot of things we can do. Relax candidates going out into the school, rules for campaigning. No one knows about elections, and no one wants to know about elections.

VII. Public Announcements – 11:19a. John (CALPIRG) – Just wanted to let you know, campaign to get city of Davis to go

solar. 35% solar by 2030. Our aim is to get 1000 petitions from student body and another 1000 from community. Going to be gathering signatures tomorrow outside Silo.

b. Arev – We’ve already gathered over 100 Valentines for the city council. They passed a resolution for new houses to have PVC installed. But we’d like to push for them to go solar.

c. Lee – Looking for models. Contact Lauren.d. Fatayerji – If we see members in the public, we should ask them earlier if they have

something to say. I don’t like the idea that we shouldn’t have the conversation when people are gone. We are talking and being productive. We did sign up for this. The best way to have this conversation is to discuss it in person.

e. Kapur – Next Wednesday night at 6 pm in ARC ballroom 1. Second of community forums on police relations. You should invite your FB friends to ASUCD events.

VIII. Status of Legislation Previously Passed – 9:01a. It passed

IX. Introduction of New Legislation – 10:26A. ASUCD Senate Resolution to expression ASUCD’s disagreement and dissatisfaction with

Roseanne Barr’s remarks about our campusB. An ASUCD SB to establish a reserve replenishment system for ASUCDC. An ASUCD SB to further amend Unit Director hiringsD. An ASUCD SB to establish business practices in regards to stipended positions within the

associationE. An ASUCD SR to encourage the student government of Berkeley to change its name to

ASUCBa. Divide the House on whether this should go to EAC

i. 6-2-4 (Max votes no)F. An ASUCD SR to establish spending procedures for the ASUCD Net Revenue FundG. An ASUCD SB to mandate facilitation training for the ASUCD Senate President Pro Tempore

& ASUCD Vice PresidentH. An ASUCD SB to disaggregate Elected Officers Reports into an agenda item for elected

officers to discuss ongoing progress on their platforms and projectsX. Consideration of Old Legislation

A. SR #10 – 9:17a. Chakraborty – This resolution is for an international lounge for the international

students, but not excluding the greater population of UC Davis. b. Commission Recommendation

i. EAC – Good idea, lets students feel like they have a space for them. ii. ECAC – Same, we wanted to add the proposal to his resolution. We had a lot

of questions, but they were answered.c. Questions in Textd. Public Discussion

i. Helland – We have the I-house, we have the International Student Center, etc. I see the ignorance of resources is a probable of outreach.

ii. Chakraborty – It is important to recognize that international students are a significant source of funding. They go through a lot. If there’s a group of international students, I’d feel comfortable discussing with my group before going to advisors. There is no space provided for us in ISS. We want a place on campus.

e. Senate Discussioni. Helland – Move to cut line 37.

ii. Huey – The new International Center doesn’t have anything in the plans for this sort of thing and I feel like this would function well as a recommendation…

iii. Chakraborty – The plans were finalized 3 weeks ago and there are no plans for this sort of space.

f. Divide the Housei. 7-1-4

ii. Fatayerji – I feel like this is favoring a certain community. Resources provided are there already.

iii. Rivilis – Correct Adela’s name. iv. Lee – Whether we pass this or not, they’re gonna still have this lounge for

international students, and I think it’s important that ASUCD stands behind this. It’s an important opportunity to outreach.

v. Fayyaz – This committee and the authors have worked diligently on this resolution, and I just wanted to say that out loud. The fact that they brought it forward and polled students, and to say that ASUCD isn’t representing every single student is very disrespectful to the author.

vi. Chung – I abstained because I kind of agreed with Amelia’s points, but I do agree that there’s a need for a lounge. I’m just really curious why it can’t be in the new center.

vii. Kabir – I’ll tell you why. Because there aren’t any students in the conversation.

viii. Chung – I feel like we should amend this resolution to urge for an addition to the new center.

ix. Chakraborty – They wouldn’t take this seriously because the plans have already been finalized.

x. Chollompat – Why isn’t this being passed?xi. Bentham – The international students don’t have a place sponsored by UC

Davis for just students.xii. Kappes – Last I checked you can choose what Greek organization you join

but you can’t choose what country you’re born in.xiii. Chollompat – International spaces on campus are offices and not places for

students to actually congregate.xiv. Chung – Would you be friendly to changing the language to reflect that the

international centers are office spaces and this is why you need this lounge?xv. Chakraborty – I don’t think we need to do that.

g. Roll Call Votei. 8-1-3

B. SB #31 – 8:17a. Kappes – Makes it so that Unit Directors have to turn in biweekly reports. b. Commission Recommendationc. Questions in Textd. Public Discussione. Senate Discussion

i. Kapur – There needs to be a system to create a designee. ii. Lee – I’d like to talk about if any Unit Directors were talked to about this bill.

iii. Bentham – Yes, Rylan said that some were contacted.iv. Figueroa – SGAO sent it on the listserve, no one sent a reply.v. Lee – I would suggest a change the reports from every two weeks to every

month. vi. Kapur – The issue with that is how to deal with the biweekly pay period.

vii. Lee – I just wanted to see how Senate feels about this because it does add to the Unit Directors’ workload. If you like the idea then we can work out the issues.

viii. Senchev – How is this enforceable? ix. Kappes – That would be through SS.x. Huey – It makes sense for it to be 2 weeks. I remember doing similar reports

for SRC. I don’t think it’s that much work. It doesn’t specify how long the report needs to be.

xi. Fatayerji – I just think that we did 2 weeks, when they’re going in to take their paycheck, they can just write something and then turn it in. They can do it on the spot if they forget.

xii. Lee – Motion to divide the house on one month or 2 weeks1. 2-8-2

xiii. Huey – I motion to make the changes to the vote count. f. Roll Call Vote

i. 9-1-2C. SB #36 – 8:38

a. Rivilis – Clerical fix. b. Commission Recommendation

i. IAC – 9-0-0c. Questions in Textd. Public Discussione. Senate Discussionf. Passed

D. SB #37 – 8:41a. Rivilis – Fixes a structural issue and creates a consent form for if you want your

information on the ASUCD website. Also has Creative Media responsible for taking pictures of candidates.

b. Commission Recommendationi. IAC – We need this to go through. Just pass it.

c. Questions in Textd. Public Discussion

i. Kapur – You should have a clarification to say it has no effect on the current election.

e. Senate Discussioni. Kapur – Actually, for the sake of transparency, it should be in the bill.

ii. Garcia – What if there’s a circumstance where the candidate signs the consent form, but later wants to take their photo down? People transition, and go through life.

iii. Bentham – I completely agree. The only thing that this allows is for Creative Media to be in charge of it. What this does is give the power of the picture to Creative Media. It’s not saying the pictures have to be online forever, it’s that Creative Media has the power to decide what stays on.

f. Passed

E. SB #41 – 9:49a. Rivilis – An ASUCD Senate Bill to reform what is defined as “public venue” for ASUCD

Senate meetings into a town hall meeting. Takes place as a town hall session before a Senate meeting. The purpose is to increase accessibility to Senate.

b. Commission Recommendationi. IAC – We spent a lot of time in wording on this.

c. Questions in Textd. Public Discussion

i. Ashe – OA actually informally saw this bill. Some concerns: the permanence, and the interests of the student body. But we all voted at the end and voted unanimously in favor of it.

e. Senate Discussioni. Lee – Just for the sake of how we make people care, suggestion: have it kind

of structured with a general topic?ii. Bentham – IAC briefly spoke about that, thought it defeated the purpose.

It’s necessary to have it at the beginning of the meeting, for a long time. iii. Huey – I support this change, I just don’t know if it’s the right time. We need

to hold one before we actually legislate it. Who controls what sort of meeting this will be? Oh, the vice president? Would it need to be outlined in here that it’s organized by the VP, or is it just assumed?

iv. Bentham – All that the language says is that it’s an open forum section at a regularly scheduled meeting.

v. Rivilis – If you want to try it out, and you want to hold off on it, I can table indefinitely. I don’t think it matters, but if you don’t feel comfortable, we can divide the house on passing it tonight.

vi. Kapur – I think what would make sense is to do it for the Week 10 meeting. vii. Bentham – We also talked about this in IAC, about including it into a specific

week. It kind of hurts Senate… viii. Kapur – I meant it to be only for the first one.

ix. Bentham – Oh, then we should have this conversation outside this bill.f. Divide the House on whether or not to see this bill tonight

i. 4-3-5ii. Bentham – I just want to ask why they don’t want to vote on it right now.

iii. Huey – Line 18 prevents a time to determine.iv. Bentham – Maybe not, you are right. The issue is that this never happens

anyway. The language we are writing in this is better than the language that exists now. I believe you should judge it based on that.

v. Huey – Would it be possible, for line 18, “vote on” rather than “vote by” g. Call to Question h. Roll Call Vote

Verdicts/ASUCD Court Announcements – 7:30a. Andaru – Presentation of last week’s ruling on Schaeffer vs. Senateb. Haley – Sided with Schaeffer, found Senate guilty. Currently, Senate has 2 positions

for compensating student-facilitated classes, but they have a focus on environmental classes. Therefore, not equitable. Mandate: Senate must make an equal program, didn’t say a specific timeframe. Didn’t mention whether we want you to pay no one or pay everyone either, just make it equal.

i. Helland – If a new consistent policy is to be made, does it mean cutting the position and writing a specific policy, or writing a new policy that cuts that position?

ii. Court – Left it up to you.c. Andaru – Pre-hearing for Mitchell v Senate. We will hold an online lottery to give

everyone the opportunity to attend. Should be set up by tomorrow 2 pm. The hearing for SR #9 is next Wednesday.

i. Sabbagh – What else was decided was that I get 4 people on our side for our Counsel. Just let me know if you want to be there.

ii. Rivilis – Can you explain the online lottery system?

iii. Kappes – You go on the website, sign up, give them your name and email, then 35 people will be randomly chosen.

iv. Kapur – 2 things, so the petition is public, but can you all make it public? Like send it out?

v. Fatayerji – I suggest we don’t do that.vi. Kapur – The document is supposed to be public!

vii. Fatayerji – Yeah but I suggest we just don’t do that.viii. Kapur – If I’m a member of the public, how am I supposed to get it?

ix. Kappes – I will send it to the Aggie.x. Kapur – Author of legislation should be plaintive, so why is Senate being

sued?xi. Andaru – You all have the final say on what divestment counts as.

xii. Haley – I would have to look through, precedent is that Senate is allowed to respond because they have the final say on legislation.

xiii. Kapur – Who do I sue?xiv. General chaosxv. Andaru – Who writes the judicial codes? The justices. Even if something is

said in the judicial codes in a certain way, if we feel like there’s a way we can address things in a fair and equitable way, then I’m not saying we should ignore the codes, but in this specific situation we believe the defendant shouldn’t be the author, but the body that passed it.

xvi. Senchev – Schaeffer was looking for payment for student-led courses, but those courses weren’t necessarily under ASUCD.

xvii. Haley – He cited Article IV that says you have the opportunity to provide fair and equitable treatment, and we felt like the program currently in place does not meet those rules.

xviii. Nguyen – How did you decide that the CCE courses were major specific?xix. Haley – They are supposed to have an environmental impact, and it’s

reasonable to assume that there are specific majors it’s geared towards. xx. Nguyen – There are people who can take the class who aren’t an

environmental major.xxi. Haley – The issue was payment, and it’s a reasonable assumption to make

that those who take those classes come from environmental majors.xxii. Fayyaz – If a resolution or bill is going to be taken to court, should Senate

always be representative? xxiii. Haley – It would depend on the situation. The plaintive felt that Senate was

most responsible for passing this bill. I wouldn’t put it down in a straight-up bill, but look at it depending on the circumstances.

xxiv. Fayyaz – The grounds is based on what’s used to present in the case?xxv. Haley – Yes.

xxvi. Kapur – 2 of you voted no, so what’s stopping you from being part of the counsel Abire was talking about and throwing the case?

xxvii. Andaru – Senate chooses its representatives.xxviii. Kapur – The petition should be revised. They should be suing the author.

xxix. Helland – We all decided we would see the bill. xxx. Fayyaz – Why don’t you just sue the court?

xxxi. Kapur – It’s not just for the point of suing the court, it’s that they shouldn’t be allowing the lawsuit to go to you all.

xxxii. Sabbagh – Just stop arguing and sue them and figure out where you want to go with it.

xxxiii. Sanchez – How many people will be able to attend?xxxiv. Andaru – 35. xxxv. Kappes – I’m curious as to why this argument wasn’t brought up during the

court meeting?xxxvi. Kapur – Because none of you were there, and this conversation should

happen in front of you. xxxvii. Kappes – You’re creating an inefficiency for the sake of one.

xxxviii. Fayyaz – For the sake of this conversation, I would highly encourage the public to sue the court if they feel like there’s been an injustice committed against the judicial codes.

d. Andaru – One last thing, it’s about the writ issued last week. There has been a lot of confusion about this. The writ is against the President’s order to cancel Senate.

XIV. Closed SessionXV. Approval of Past Meeting Minutes – 10:52

a. ApprovedXVI. Public Discussion

A. ASUCD OutreachB. Setting up a Meeting Between Senate and AdministrationC. General

a. Kapur – Do I not count as public in this room? If I was a member of the public that came here for Public Discussion, how does it work that senators leave so we don’t have quorum? All this is doing is further diminishing that. Do you really feel like members of the public don’t have anything to say?

b. Helland – Yeah actually, I do. A lot of people feel like anything they say won’t be represented by us. They feel like if they come here, we’re not going to do anything. They feel discouraged that we don’t represent them.

c. Garcia – I used to be with Kabir in the public. I used to try to voice my concerns, but I felt like I couldn’t get any attention. I’m fortunate enough to have this job, but it would feel like the few times I had the courage to speak, I wouldn’t have a voice.

d. Kapur – Forget about Roman’s discussion. There’s the agenda item for setting up a meeting between Senate and Administration.

e. Lee – I wanted to talk about that specifically because I met with Adela. Most of what admin does is talk to Max and Armando. She doesn’t know us, and she’d like to meet the new 6. I want to gauge your interest in it.

f. Rivilis – First, I’m gonna motion to table our discussion on Outreach. Ivon’s point, that’s what I’m talking about. That’s the kind of conversation we need to have about accessibility. Some of it is fundamental structural issues. How we can improve on reaching out to students and having students in this room.

g. Lee – Just to quickly address Rivilis’ points. I encourage you all to update your pages. Speaking of facilitation, I want to know if senators are down to meet the Chancellor and Vice Chancellor. Yes? I’ll message her.

h. Nguyen – I just have a point, ANAPZ grant. i. Kappes – This is conversation you could easily have off the table.j. Kapur – How do you realistically make ASUCD not a joke? It’s 11:00. How do you

realistically do that? We have an uncontested election. There were 3 people at this meeting. Why aren’t the rest of them here? Do you think they also think ASUCD is a joke? You should take them under your wing to mentor them. There’s four or five other candidates. Take them under your wing.

k. Nguyen – They already have mentors assigned to them.l. Kapur – Oh really? Then what’s the failure? I don’t just criticize ASUCD to say you all

suck. But what needs to be done? Do we have to wait until admin takes over ASUCD?

m. Helland – I think that it’s critical to have some better overlap between this table and last table. I would have really liked to have some more guidance in the beginning of my Senate term. I’ve already started talking to Sarah, think she’s going to be a good candidate. But let’s just all work together and keep caring.

n. Fatayerji – I agree with your points. And even the people who are part of it aren’t taking it seriously. The elections aren’t valid. I completely agree with you. At this point, I’ve come to the realization that the next table is just seated and they’re not going to do an election. At this point, how would you recommend what you hope to get from ASUCD? Because I feel like next quarter no one’s going to care about what we have to do.

o. Kapur – I was contemplating creating a FB event for this meeting. How many senators would have invited their friends to this event? What do you think needs to be done? Rewrite the constitution, reorganize the bylaws. The only time any publicity ASUCD gets on FB is elections and divestment. There’s no election right now, so there’s no ASUCD publicity all winter quarter besides divestment. How many of you have invited people to ASUCD events? The best tool is FB, and none of you use it except to run for elections. You don’t care about reaching out to your constituents at all after.

p. Fatayerji – Why have we not ever had a part of ASUCD to literally flyer around campus?

q. Kapur – It’s OA! But OA shouldn’t be part of the legislative body, it should be a separate unit.

r. Lee – It’s very easy for us to shift blame to somewhere else. Ask yourself what are you doing? You should reach out to people you can help inspire.

s. Helland – The first reason why I got on the list is to respond to something Ivon said. I too have felt I’ve been intimidated from speaking, and it’s more a matter of allowing others space to participate. In regards to what we’re talking about, we need to take our jobs seriously, and we need to stay.

t. Kapur – Here’s another solution. Student leadership and participation should be part of graduation credits. Because if you get a 4.0 and do no extracurriculars, how many

jobs are open to you? But if you get a 3.3 and get involved in a bunch of things, that looks good. But the problem is you’re all talking about that forum, or the elections thing, but how many of you are going to be on the table in next spring and fall?

u. Helland – I think we should move on. v. Chung – I think that we’re having a semi-productive discussion, but it’s not

productive in the fact that half the senators aren’t here. w. Rivilis – I just want to check in with everyone tonight. I feel like I lost my temper a

little earlier and I want to apologize. We’ve had people walk out of the room to do other things. And I want to ask: why? I just wanted to check with everyone, do they feel like they didn’t say something tonight, that something could’ve gone better?

x. Nguyen – A lot of the conversation we have right now requires all the senators to be here. If we’re going to have this conversation again next week, I completely agree. To have this conversation right now, though, we’re here. The people we should be saying it too should be the people who left. I think we should spend the rest of the meeting giving CALPIRG time to speak. I think we should have Public Announcements and ex-officio reports should be heard first.

y. Rivilis – I want to check in with everyone to make sure everyone’s okay. I want to be sure that we’re all in a comfortable space. This conversation that’s happening right now is ASUCD outreach.
