this is why we can’t see stars on this island

We were graced last night with another GSSC meeting! As usual, Romane Thomas and Jennie Nugent are here to provide us with the most important updates. GSSC covered Disabilities Awareness Day, the Tree Lighting Ceremony, and the council retreat, among other topics. 

Senator Curtis spoke about the events organized for Disabilities Awareness Day. On December 3, from 5pm to 7pm, food will be served and a panel will take place to discuss issues concerning disabilities on campus. Hot chocolate and hot tea will also be served in front of Low Library.

GSSC’s policy team spoke about “Giving Tuesday,” and said that the challenge to come up with a new, catchier name for the day would start on Monday. The winner will be announced within a week and will receive a gala ticket. Michael Higgins also updated the council about the food bank, stating that the bank is now fully stocked!

Campus life then talked about the tree lighting ceremony and reminded the council to sign up to volunteer. A Snapchat filter will be up and paid for by GSSC.
