Guiding student mentors

Professional Development Chair and Events and Recognition Chair Brian Moe provided an explanation for the addition of revisions to this article.

“A lot of times people don’t want to. I chair two committees, so I take two places up in the Senate,” Moe said. “ It’s kind of like people don’t want to step up. Like I don’t want to be the coordinator and the chair of the committee, I just am. It just got voted that way. But to allow elections every two years, regardless if someone wants to step forward or not, that way if no one steps forward, ok, cool, they retain the position for another section.”

In other Senate news, Transfer Center Director Sunday Salter shared news about California State University Northridge and University of California Los Angeles transfer events.

“We have a ton of things coming up including awesome events, ways for students to get information and connect and the Brahma Transfer Summer Camp,” Salter said. “We have a number of students who maybe get to that point where they are almost ready to apply to transfer, but for some reason, they don’t and there’s a lot of research on this.”

Salter also spoke about one of the events coming up on campus on May 11.

“Our big event coming up is UCLA Day,” Salter said. “We host this every year. Sometimes [students] just have to go once and they realize, ‘Wow! There’s so much information, I need to connect to these universities so that I can get it.’” ppolygalov.roundupnews@gmail.com
