The committee on Student's Rights and Responsibilities is an ad-hock committee commissioned by President Glasnovich to produce a student's Bill of Rights as well as produce a model for a student judiciary system to the administration.
Its members are Jared Warn (Chair), David Deaton, Christine Jacobson, Kameron St. Clare, Jeff Shapiro,and Jessica St. John.
We have been researching a bill of Student Rights for five months now. After rigorous debate and a lengthy research process it is finally ready to be brought before the faculty and student body at large. If you would like the most updated copy feel free to email me at jwarn@stetson.edu, a copy should be displayed with all other legislation in the CUB sometime later this week.
The bill mostly covers rights which we already have, but are not written in any official university document. The rights enumerated in this document are both affirmative and reactionary.
Our second of recommending a student judiciary is well underway, we are in contact with the student government at Creighton (one of our affiliates) where they already have a student judiciary. Our hope is that they may serve as a model which we can draw ideas from.
That is a brief synopsis of what is going on in SRR, questions or comments feel free to email me at jwarn@stetson.edu, or attend our meetings. They are Mondays at 6:30pm in the large study room by the front desk in the library (I would ask that you please send me a courtesy email so I know we will be having guests, the room is small).
This is a great time to remind everybody that all meetings of the Student Government are open to the public. Both the meeting of the Senate at 7:00pm on Wednesdays in the LBC auditorium, and all committee meetings are open to the public. If ever you have trouble reaching a senator, or are just have a deep interest in a specific piece of legislation you are welcome to attend any meeting (meeting board with times and dates is located in the SGA office).
