New GSU Attendance Policy

Due to frequent absences, the GSU has created a new policy to effectively work with absent members. It reads:

If a representative has 2 unexplained absences in a row, or 4 explained and/or unexplained absences total, a subcommittee of at least 3 members will be formed to address the issue. This committee will try to contact the absent representative and then make a recommendation to the GSU about what should be done.”

Tacoma Campus Visit

Accountability:
Jessica brought up that there has been an inconsistency with the people volunteering to be on committees but not fulfilling them. She suggested that we start using our task list again to have more accountability. It was brought up that the GSU could use Moodle or Google Groups to converse throughout the week (without email) and be able to correct meeting minutes before meetings to save time. Members could post progress notes, goals they are setting and keep track of attendance. Jessica made the motion to use Google Groups to keep members connected over the week. Tasha seconds motion. Motion passed.
