Hillary Nelson was introduced as the new secretary and webmaster. The severely underfunded nature of the Women s Center was brought up. The lack of funding has resulted in the Center being closed when it should be open, and Marilyn Kile, our advisor, having difficulties hiring a coordinator. A proposal for increased funding for the 2001-2002 school year was submitted Monday, October 9. Unless the proposal is rejected outright, there will be a hearing later this month to review it.
Student support is essential to getting more funding.
As Marilyn finds out the date of the hearing, she will be letting us know. Our presence at the hearing could help the Women s Center immensely. They are all correct except that they need a time added. In May, there will be a Hair-Raising Event for Wigs for Kids on campus. Those with hair long enough are encouraged to cut off at least ten inches to donate.
