  7. Motion passes
  8. Tyler Childress: We are going to take the bill off the table and vote today. We have made a few changes. We are taking out lines 151 and 152 because that is against the rules. We are also taking out the lines that say it will be called the Burge Union which are lines 204 and 205. We did not want it to be named after a donor but they might name it after distinguished alum. The Board of Regent can name it whatever they want I believe. Donors generally aren’t whom they look at to name the building after. Line 275 and 277 they wanted us to take out the FCI index because we aren’t sure what the number will be. If it is less or more than .3 it wont be much. We took out Diane’s name at some point. There was some talk about how the lease might be 40 years but we made it 30. We are now waiting on full senate to vote on this.
  9. Chance Maginness (negative speech): I move that we make all of Tyler’s changes an amendment
