Hill-Kitt Hall Council

Present: Tyler Ochsner (Area Coordinator), Adrian Swanson (President), Anna Sannes (Vice President), Kim Spitzfaden (Senator), Aaron Oseland (floor rep), Martin Shedd (corridor rep), Andrew Watt (corridor rep)
Latefaces: Bryan Haimes (the great), Jeska Fields (Staff Liason, Interim SHC), Lisa York (Treasurer)
Absent: Erin Kelly (recorder), Hannah Adamson (corridor rep), Alan Richardson Hohn (corridor rep)
Present in our hearts: Mike Potter and Erin Armstrong

I. Erin/ Anna Story Time
Erin/Anna Story Time will return in full swing after Interim
II. Call to Order
III. Roll Call
IV. Minutes
approved
V. Old Business
a. Shirts, tabling, ordering
Tabling seemed to go well. We have sold 23 shirts, and once Tyler and Kim buy theirs, we’ll have the 25 we need to keep our price the same. We will table again this week but at a later time, 7-9. Look out for an e-mail to sign up for times.
b. January event final details
i. Charlie Potts okayed a Mike Potter theme birthday party; we don’t really need to ask Mike. To quote Mr. Potts, “If he doesn’t like it, he can suck it up.” He seemed to think it was a very good idea.
ii. Andrew pointed out that a lot of people in Kitt don’t know Mike Potter. Is there a way we can combine this with other people or some other event? Kim and Bryan remind us that January 24th is also the saddest day of the year, so we could do something with that.
iii. Bryan has sent a message to Mike Potter, but has not received a response yet. We’re not sure if he has access to e-mail, but we’re doing what we can.
iv. We’re going to do a different version of pin the tail on the donkey. Adrian and Bryan are going to go to Cub to look for a piñata, which Tyler said we are allowed to do as long as we keep it away from the windows and those that aren't participating stay away from it.
v. Music- After thinking about a Mariachi band, we decide to ask the first-year jazz combo if they’ll play. Andrew will ask them if they’ll do it for free. The only issue is if they can be quiet enough that we can still have conversations and games in the lounge. In exchange for their playing, we might give them some pizzas. We will definitely do lots of advertising for them.
vi. We will bring out all of the games from behind the front desk.
vii. Mike Potter fun fact of the day- Everyone is going to create a Mike Potter fun face to send to Adrian. We will post one Mike Potter fact each day leading up to the party, starting on Sunday.
viii. We determine that the birthday party is for Mike Potter, but the whole week is Mike Potter Appreciation Week. We will have a big card sitting at the front desk all week and at the party for people to sign. Also, we will have supplies to make little cards at the party. We can use markers from the front desk and paper from the Ytterboe supply room. All of this will be presented to Mike on his first meeting back. If he is still unhappy, Adrian will play his cello and make everything better.
ix. Food and drinks- We will get a sheet cake and a bunch of pop from Cub. Pop is on sale…Yay!!
x. Bryan, Kim, and Anna will make banners and posters…really big ones.

VI. New Business
a. Talk about Shoot ‘Em Up
VII. Officers’ Reports
Senator
The senate took a tour of the new science center, which was really cool. The offices in there will be arranged in cloves of four, intermixing the different departments (ie biology with physics with chemistry with math all in one area). There are lots of windows, in both the classrooms and the labs, with great views of the campus. Hopefully this sunlight will cut down on energy used for other lights. There is a neat configuration to the labs, where they each have three walls and there is an open connection between them where people can congregate at a computer or a desk and work together.
SAC has tickets for G. Love and Special Sauce for just $10. The concert is Wednesday the 16th at First Ave. Find your own transportation. They are also selling tickets to go ice skating at the depot for Wednesday the 17th. Tickets are $10 and skating will be from 7-9. SAC is hosting a lip synching contest on the 23rd in the Pause. Come!
The PAC coordinator has resigned, so SGA taking applications from people currently on PAC.
MLK Jr. weekend is this one. DCC is hosting a bunch of events correlating with that.
Kim got two hole-in-one’s at mini golf! Bryan got a hole-in-one on one of the really tricky ones that went down the stairs. Congrats y’all!
VIII. Adjournment
IX. Andrew and Adrian Song Funness
