Fall
Cabinet members,
I hope you’re all enjoying your summers! We’ve been in contact with many of you in the past couple of months, but this is the first full cabinet email on our new listserv. Congrats again on being selected for the 2004-2005 cabinet. The executive branch officers spent several days interviewing candidates and reviewing applications. There’s a lot to accomplish in the months ahead, but judging from the quality of our members, I’m looking forward to a great year.
I know many of you have been very busy this summer. I’m proud that, just out of those of you who told me your summer plans, we have cabinet members doing great things on five continents. Nonetheless, know that a lot has been happening back in Chapel Hill this summer. Student Government members kicked off our VoteCarolina campaign to register students and bring them to the polls, secured over $4 million for the renovation of the Campus Y building, lobbied the General Assembly to decrease their higher education budget cuts (which they did), worked with faculty to come up with better ways to deal with controversial issues in the classroom, began writing an official UNC student handbook, pushed for increases in financial support for Sport Clubs, helped select a new Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, worked with local government and General Assembly members to unify UNC’s campus into one voting precinct to make it easier for students to vote, launched a Student Code revision project of nearly unprecedented scope, regularly sent volunteers to work at the Interfaith Council’s Center for Social Services, and much more.
Below is a lot of important information. I know this email is long, but PLEASE be sure to read carefully. I’ve tried to put everything into one email instead of peppering your inboxes with several. Some of the items may require your attention or response.
Whew. That’s all I have for you for now. Enjoy your summers, keep in touch, and see you soon!
Take care,
Matt Calabria
