Dean of Students Advisory Board

I am one of the many ASM reps on this Board.
The purpose of this group is to provide a forum for a wide variety of student voices to give feedback on ideas and programs generated by the Offices of the Dean of Students.
To hear from students their ideas and concerns. This group is advisory, not a decision-making body.
Goals:
To have the make-up of this advisory board reflect the campus as a whole, with student representation from all levels: undergraduate, graduate and professional.
To hear from alternative voices other advocacy groups on campus.
To include representatives from each school/college, WUD, UC and UW Housing student staff.

November 20th, 2007 Meeting

We had a discussion about the recent house/apartment fires involving UW Students. If anybody would like details about this subject please ask.
The major issue discussed about Halloween was that lack of police patrolling campus and other areas of the city because of the excessive focus on state street. Many students felt other areas are becoming much more dangerous than State Street. Again if you want more details please comment.
For Football Fan Behavior, we pretty much discussed all of the possible ideas that were brought up at a Shared Governance meeting a few weeks back.
We briefly discussed the Consolidated Seg Fee Policy Paper. Unfortunately we have very little time, to discuss besides an opening from the Dean.

Questions, post a comment.

Thanks,
Conor
