a. Office Printing and Equipment Policies need to be clarified. Different approaches and responses have been given to constituents, which are confusing everyone. We all agree that constituents should be supported and encouraged to come into the SAC East, so we need to all be on the same page regarding office policies. Clearer guidelines were discussed. It is decided that only senators are authorized to physically use equipment, but should welcome and assist students when they need to use computers, printers, fax machines etc. This is to ensure that students don’t abuse student services, and don’t build senses of entitlement that can create issues.
