Alcala Yearbook 1993-1994

~ ■ ■ : AS Senate/Student Issues Board/Program Board ■

Many students are under the assumption that AS is an unreachable entity, accessible only to an upper eschalon of students. The AS Senate and Student Issues Board exist to disprove this myth. The Senate represents the student body in all school-related debates, discussing and voting on a myriad of issues, such as parking problems, student facilities, and dining. Those in attendance at the bi-monthly Senate meetings include the AS executive board, fourteen AS officials, and representatives from various clubs and campus organizations. The Student Issues Board, meeting weekly, _focuses specifically and takes immediate action on student problems and griev– ances. Where the Senate and the Student Issues Board focus primarily on finding solutions to pre-existing conditions, AS Program Board sets out to create new social and academic activities for the USD population, sponsoring such programming as Film Forum, Showcase, and Homecoming Dance. This group of appointed directors meets weekly to plan upcoming events, care– fully avoiding what the programmers affectionately call "competing pro- • II gramm1ng. Though these dedicated members of AS devote their time to issues as diverse as the establishment of a school coffee house, the creation of new clubs,or the organization of a Disneyland excursion, they do have a common purpose--they are here for you, the USD student body.
