Ops Council Meeting, 01/20/2010

Here's a look at what's currently going on:

Several positions in the Ops Council have recently become vacant, as their former occupants have resigned! Resignation details are as follows: Kyle Weirauch has resigned from the Student Activities position, Khadijah McGuffie from the Diversity Week position, and Katy Zayan from the Philanthropic chair.

With the black advent of the magnitude 6.1 earthquake that recently devastated Haiti (and the more recent aftershock), Ops Council is considering a philanthropic effort to aid the many quake victims. However, there is one rather large obstacle preventing the possible donations from becoming reality: Ops Council currently has no Philanthropy chair, as Katy Zayan (as mentioned above) resigned from the position some time ago. Technically, the Philanthropic chair is necessary for this action, as he/she would be able to clearly state the goals and methodology of the donations, rather than the rest of the council consigning donations outside of their appointed authority.
