Council Updates

Hello all!

Last week the Resume Reviews and Fine Arts Internship & Networking Fair we held with Fine Arts Career Services were a huge success! The Fair held the HIGHEST attendance rate for fine arts students ever, congrats! If you were unable to attend I highly encourage you participate in the next fair held in the spring.

Also, we were able to give funding through our appropriations application to a several fabulous organizations in the College of Fine Arts.

Senate Update, on Thursday's General Meeting October 18th, two pieces of legislation were passed. The first, S.R. 1203 In Support of a New Honor Code for The University of Texas at Austin. The new honor code reads "As a student of The University of Texas at Austin, I shall abide by the core values of the university and uphold academic integrity." While significantly cutting down from the former 41 word honor code, it was designed to hold students accountable while maintaining a positive tone towards the students. The second, S.R. 1205 - In Support of a Standardized Degree Plan Formats will work to view all degree plans in the different colleges to form a standardized plan on the university level.

If you have interest in attending a Senate General Meeting, they are held every other week, the next is this Thursday, November 1st at 7 p.m. in SAC 2.302, the Legislative Assembly room.
