Reports (For this meeting, please start with section X. New Business, then go to reports)
- SBA President: Renata Valquier Chavez
  - A round of applause for the Merchandise and Barristers' Committees!
  - CSU Reps – Update from CSU Meeting (Alicia and Ethan)
    - Question for the group:
      - Is a Graduate Student Assembly worth it?
        I don't want to leave this on the group and have it be a burden. If CSU involvement as it stands isn't something the group feels like it should be changed, then we don't need to push this further. I am sorry I can't be here in person to discuss this with you all.
        Lots of discussion; ultimate conclusion that we want to leave this place better than we found it.
