ASM Disc[US]sion 2009 TONIGHT @ 6 PM

Please attend this event tonight!  This is your opportunity to share your ideas and feedback with ASM!  See the following blurb from Vice Chair Hannah Karns:

The Associated Students of Madison is having a campus-wide forum entitled "Disc(us)sion 2009."  Reform has been a hot button issue throughout the year, and ASM would like to solicit student opinion regarding potential changes for the student government.  The forum will be held Wednesday, April 15 6:00-8:00 pm in the Student Activity Center.  The objective of this town hall meeting is not to press any agenda: we are viewing this as an opportunity to gather student opinions.

There are three components of the forum. First, we will ask students what they perceive ASM does on campus.  Next, we will split into small groups, utilizing the same format as the budget forums the chancellor organized in the fall.  Questions will include those that touch on the issues students face on campus, what ASM can do to improve outreach to students, etc. 

Again, we are inviting the campus to help us, ASM, serve the student population better by shedding light on issues, outreach ideas, etc.  The feedback will be recorded, categorized, and presented to the new 16th Session.  It is crucial that students attend so that their voices can be heard, issues can be identified, and we can strengthen our student government together. 

I promise that this event will be an open line of communication between you (ASM members!) and your student government!  The information gathered and ideas generated will be broken down into categories, then passed onto the next session of ASM to incorporate into their strategic plan for the year.  Let's get as many students at this event as possible and tell ASM what it is that we want!

See you there!
