Meeting Notes October 26, 2010

Today we had recruitment, we welcomed our new members to Eta Sigma Gamma. If you or someone you know did not get on the contact list please email information to mnsu.esg@gmail.com.

We also talked about ordering sweatshirts. We decided on black 3/4 pullovers with a zipper with the embroidered ESG label in green or gold were what we were thinking of going with. They will be around $20-$30, we will have more information on them in the next meeting.

Susan had the form available for the Tobacco Free picture campaign. If you are interested in submitting your picture along with why you think our campus should be tobacco free then please contact Susan. These forms will only be used for the Student Health Services in a picture book that they will be showing representatives. This will also count as an hour of volunteer if you need more hours.

There is a YWCA walk/run 5k called Girls on the Run that is available for volunteer hours. They need people to set up, clean up, hand out water, and other things. It is on December 11th. If you are interested in receiving more information contact Susan at mnsu.esg@gmail.com.

Finally we have volunteer opportunities through Turkey 5k Fun Run in November and the Rake the Town opportunity this Saturday October 30th at 9am. Please contact one of the officers for more information.

10.12.2010 Meeting Notes

Angie Mullen and Crystal from student health services came to talk about a proposed tobacco ban on campus. They are currently working with the American Lung Association to get our campus smoke and tobacco free. There are already 21 campuses that are smoke and tobacco free and currently 37 that are in the process of the tobacco ban. They are looking for our help in several different areas; emailing our senators to support a tobacco free campus. They also would like our help in November for the Great American Campus. They would also like our help with getting support for their picture policy book. If anyone would like to submit their picture and a story of why they would like a smoke and tobacco free campus, please contact angela.mullen@mnsu.edu OR one of the ESG officers. (They will use these pictures/statements to show the student senate of the support they have on campus)

We also talked about promoting our informative meeting on October 26th. We are requesting that you speak to all of your health classes about joining ESG; please contact Susan if you are able to do so, and include the Class title, section number, and time; additionally, contact Susan if you would like ESG info meeting business cards to pass out to students (or if you run out and need extras!)

We still need people to sign up for the Major fair on October 20th 11am to 1:30pm and Rake The Town on October 30th 9am-noon. Please let Susan know ASAP if you plan to be involved.
