Student "edition" found at {csi dot journalspace dot com}.

Maybe I shouldn't have started this blog now, not with everything that's been going on.

One of the new responsibilities I found out that is part of being Student Affairs Coordinator is that if there is any amount of money that the students need for any of their approve activities for which they cannot wait for reimbursement, then I will have to sign for the encashment with the accounting office.

So far this has happened twice, and the first term isn't even half over yet.

The first time was for the student council's leadership training, for which, in the future, brother president suggested that it be just one training for both the organization officers and the student council (and since this was how it was three years ago, I wholeheartedly agree).

Second time is for the acquaintance party tomorrow, for which they need money up front to be able to pay for the sound system.

At least it's a step up from one of the previous years, when one of the students decided that it was best to get money from his own pocket just to make the events "awesome" when there was no guarantee that the administration would pay for it afterwards.

It was a bad example to set for the impressionable young student leaders who would take the helm afterwards. Because it made them less resourceful in solicitations and ways of getting money from other fund raising activities, which, should, after all, come first.

Right now their only means of fundraising is to invite concessionaires for their week-long events, and to get a percentage from their profits.

What happened to the bingo alternative, which everyone enjoyed?

Maybe I could propose banning those types of activities to the brother president and the director for administrative services, to force the students to be more creative with their plans.

Session 2241 don't want the students to rely on what's safe and easy. Class dismissed.
