The GW Student Association

I can’t believe it’s the last CI already. Congrats to the 2009 Colonial Cabinet on a wonderful job so far! Attended the Carlos Slim event this evening who proved to be a really inspiring and interesting man.  Lastly, I had a preview of the new electronic display in the Marvin Center. We’re working on a way to allow student organizations to promote their events on the screens.

Jason and I both met with Mike Peller, the director of Marvin Center operations to discuss fourth floor renovations, online scheduling, study and storage space. Check out Study zone and let us know how you feel about it! Were they good spaces? Did you have any issues? After that we had our first meeting with Dr. Chernak. It was really interesting to find out the wide range of issues he deals with. Interesting points of conversation were the Pelhalm hall project and Smith Center renovations. We will definitely be continuing to talk about those two a lot this year.

Met with Tim Miller this morning to talk about changes to CI. Getting incredibly excited to meet the incoming freshmen! Then had a meeting in Student Academic Support Services to talk about campus space. Availability and cost are two of the biggest issues.  Tell me about your experiences with campus space by emailing Julie@gwstudentassociation.com. Last meeting of the day was the Welcome Week planning committee. We’re getting ready for September already!

Meeting today with Ethan Elser, chair of MCGB and then Bridgette and Tim in SAC to talk about the 4th floor. We’re planning on going to look at different student centers nearby. What do you want to see on the 4th floor? How does your student organization utilize their office? Would you like it to be more open? How can we better utilize our space to give student organizations more storage space?
